There is no real analog to EoE, it's a very heady of mix of different things that all worked out just right.

If you want some background info on various concepts, Freud and Schopenhauer are a good start.

It's still Revelation, anon. It was Revelation before you ever made the first instance of this thread, it remained Revelation when you started making these threads, it's still Revelation now, and it will always still be Revelation at every point in the future.

Stephen Crane's oevrue. You will find similar plots, themes and ways of telling the story to Evangelion. There is even realistically melodramatic christian metaphor and heroic anti-heroes like in Evangelion which was unusual in the time that Crane wrote.
