Gilgamesh (TV) Very good
I thought the series was worth an "excellent" grade; but the ending was so totally inconsistent with everything introduced in the rest of the show that I have to rate it one grade lower. I understand that the Japanese have different story telling techniques than we do; which accounts for many anime shows having endings that are unsatisfying from a Western point of view. While I might not like such ending very much, it's never before affected my enjoyment of a series until now. The ending for Gilgamesh was so idiotic that it ruined the show for me, because it completely disregarded everything that had happened up to that point.

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Death & Rebirth (movie) So-so
My lower rating in comparison to the series is because the 'Death' part is simply a near incoherent rehash of the TV series, and the 'Rebirth' part is an incomplete version of the first half of the "End of Evangelion" movie.

Had I not seen the TV series, I would have rated this movie as GOOD intead of VERY GOOD. The new material was quite interesting and created what I thought to be a better story than the TV series; but the movie had a very rushed feeling. I believe that had the altered story from the movie been used in the series, it would have made an already great series even better.
