People have linked Shingeki to Evangelion since long before the anime (the neck + NOT MECHA is all I'm sayin'...) came to be, for reasons I can't detail on either side of the fence for highly spoilerific reasons.
Evangelion deconstructed the feel good / manly / heroic mecha genre. And, to a lesser extent, Shingeki went against the flow of shounen fighting cliches/tropes enough to make it stand far away from, say, Fairy Tail's friendship power. Thus, both series' differences from the norm also make them comparable.
The reason I'm making this recommendation only at the anime's end: the Shingeki anime had its lead act very much like Shinji in ep24--needing a peptalk and full episode of agonizing to... do what was required. Anyone that had seen Evangelion before Shingeki would've thought the same. Even more so due to the Shingeki lead being voiced by the guy that did Shu of Guilty Crown infamy--a main character regarded as the most whiny/pathetic in recent memory. And then came ep25 with the most obvious Eva reference I've seen: Erwin standing watching a battle of gigantic proportions, an arm flying off towards him and blood splattering; Erwin's reaction being the same sorta non-reaction as Ikari's.
Whether the anime team did these things well aware of the Eva similarities in order to add more meat to the Eva-Shingeki argument, I know not. But it isn't the first time a popular anime was referenced: a character doing her very best Kira impression in ep23--the director of both Death Note and Shingeki being one and the same.

comparer Evangelion à Shingeki no Kyojin
Là je vais justement reprendre mon watch de la S2, j'avais arreté à l'épisode 16/4, mais c'est cool, fin ça vole pas haut mais c'est du bon divertissement et tout, ça passe bien. Mieux que la S1.
