Your grammar is horrible, but I think you're asking why it's being shown so long after release.

I don't know if you've actually watched Evangelion, but it's pretty self-evident why this wasn't aired. Anime wasn't nearly as popular, Cartoon Network wasn't nearly as zealous or powerful about acquiring new anime properties, and Evangelion's content would never have seen the light of day a decade ago.

I have watch evangelion, i own the dvds. Although anime was not that popular in cartoon network, they did show the really high rating animes. And Evangelion will be on Adult Swim not cartoon network. Do you think after all these years, they will show evangelion's contents? Adult Swim will probably cut out the nude and really bloody voliences. Which will suck big time considering the Eva fights are great. If Evangelion was to be aired at Cartoon, think of all the editing they will do to it.

Adult Swim didn't even exist a decade ago, and Adult Swim is a part of Cartoon Network. Also, no, I doubt it will be edited significantly besides the one or two nude scenes in the series itself.

I was gonna say...there's only, like, 2 "nude" scenes in the entire series. And they cover everything up. The Rei scene in episode 5 will be interesting to see edited (if they edit it), and I don't think they will edit the scene after Misato has sex w/Kaji (they've had worse on AS)

In terms of the "bloody violences", there will not be *too* much editing going on here. Cartoon Network has come a long way from its days of editing anything and everything potentially offensive.
