As a film studies major who took a class on anime, which involved studying the entire history of mecha anime, as well as the history of Gainax... that comment cut me deep.
I mean, I could say that about the guys who wrote Eraserhead, 2001, or the Bible, but everybody seems to love those.
@Soriku, the show really speeds up and gets crazy epic in season 2, and then gets even super crazier at about episode 16 or so, and then you'll probably finish the series in 1 or 2 binges. I say watch episode 25 and 26, but then remember that The End of Evangelion picks up as a direct sequel to episode 24, and replaces episodes 25 and 26. They're kind of like... opposite endings, but kind of covering the same thing, kinda. You'll see. Just be ready for a wild ride. And I'd love to find out if the ending either makes you love it or makes you hate it. Many people love the whole series until the very ending, and then they feel betrayed and they curse the series forever.
