The confusion surrounding Evangelion would be more accurately the question "what does it mean?" When someone asks "what is this show about?" it's more about a general synopsis which in the case of Evangelion would be "boy pilots robot to save the world from invaders" which isn't far off what it's mecha predecessors had done and were still doing at that time but it becomes something completely different by the end and that's what makes Evangelion a classic in the sense it subverted one of anime's most iconic genres especially at the time. Regardless of how anyone feels about the ending or the subliminal handling of it's themes Evangelion made it's mark on the industry and it's one of the most influential works of fiction ever, anime is still trying to replicate what it did with recent shows like Darling in the Franxx and SSS Gridman.
