First serialized in Newtype USA, Angelic Days takes the angst-ridden Eva pilots and sets them in the lighter, brighter world of high school. With comedy, action and romance (plus a fair share of fan... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I bet some Evangelion fans run away from this screaming. But the translation of the manga tie in that fits somewhere between the alternate continuity glimpsed in episode 26 of the original series. And the 'Girlfriend of Steel' video game, is quite refreshing for this reader. I think that grown up fans who have experienced failed love can appreciate the sort of hopeful outlook offered by these many tangents the all flow naturally from 'Neon Genesis Evangelion'. Interesting is that this volume gives us the end sort of, but not really. There is a volume 5 that dives into an unseen part of the past.
Good different look at a great series

It's very good I think they could make a new anime of this manga
As interesting as the 3rd volume compared to the 1st...

First off, I've enjoyed this manga since day one. Mainly cause I'm a huge Evangelion fan but partly because of how the characters are more driven by there feelings for other people than themselves. Second, the art is pretty well drawn, I admit it's lighter than the original manga but it's that way to set the mood. Lastly, if your not into teen love drama's then don't bother with this, ain't enough action to hide all the "love love". SO! Even though I gave this 4 stars, I highly recommend this series. Not just if your into Evagelion or if you played the game but simply cause its a good read. Oh and only reason why I gave this volume 4 stars was for how it ended. Don't wanna spoil anything but you'll get what I mean when you finish it.
