Fair question. Transcendent beings that exist outside of space and time, and are able to bend or change the rules previous established in the given anime.
Humans/beings that start off "normal" but are actually of archetypal importance. They eventually realize their purpose, which is to usher in a new world order (or some similar goal) through their ever-growing power. Ahh, this just reminded me that the 1980's (click to show/hide)Akira does this as well. The archetypes can come from established mythology (i.e. Greek or Biblical) or the anime itself.
If a character is called a God in the genuine sense, than that alone is valuable information.
Is it a bit more clear?

Also, what's the "eva" you reffer to in first post (nge?)

Precisely that, and its rival anime (Xephon) as well. Am working through the suggestions so far, much appreciated! Let me know if anything else comes to mind.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Tenchi. It isn't expanded on and I'm hoping for more OVA goodness, but canon Tenchi literally becomes Kami, the ultimate being.
