Well, it's bad that you're too mature to see the appeal of this series to teenager. One of the really strong points of Anime is how they very precisely grasp what themes, stories and looks teenagers are interested in. Evangelion is targeted at that age and does very well in that respect. You just have to look at the following it got to see that it was very successful in delivering what a lot of people wanted to see.

Evangelion is not literature. But it still is a piece of pop culture which main feature is to provide a very large projection screen to dwell in with your own interpretations. Just because you're not in its target audience doesn't mean that there wasn't a lot clever work involved in it.
