Book Overview
Books based on the landmark animated series that redefined the mecha genre. Japan's most controversial anime series is over...but not the manga version of Neon Genesis Evangelion Series co-creator Yoshiyuki Sadamoto's personal interpretation of the Evangelion characters and story is sure to intrigue new and old fans alike. In 2015, the Angels have returned, and Shinji Ikari, a fourteen year-old child of the new Earth, is forced by his father Gendo--commander of the secret organization NERV--to pilot the monstrous biomechanical weapon called Evangelion to match the Angels' fearsome power... After a profoundly disturbing vision leads Rei to sacrifice herself in combat against the penultimate Angel, Armisael, Kaworu takes the opportunity to try to get closer to his own target. But Shinji's anger and confusion at Kaworu's advances develop into even darker feelings when events rapidly force him to come to grips with the secret behind the origin of Rei--a secret kept by the cold, brilliant mind of NERV's soul-sold genius, Dr. Ritsuko Akagi.

Can everybody be replaced?
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
In this edition the major question is: "Can everybody be replaced?". In a capitalic globe everything can be tossed out. But are people like this? Check out what the human being is capable of in this edition. (VIZ does not publish the color pages in their original color)
Engaging
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
The short and simple review. If youve read the other volumes this will not disapoint. Continues the manga story and introduces some new insights into the story you dont get from the anime along with some new scenes and information to shed light on ALOT of unanswered questions from the anime. Overall I wish they would fit more on one volume but they all are pretty much standard so cant complain too much. Also a good section on the sound effects and a great article on the New EVA movies coming out from Gainax with alot of information.
Worth The Wait

I'd been waiting forever for this latest volume to come out, and it did not disappoint! Shinji experiences more creepy, (to him, at least) yaoi-ish encounters with the mysterious boy, Kaworu, Ryoko remembers her dark past and decides to go against Gendo's will, and Misato and Shinji learn the terrible and horrifying secret behind the first child's identity. Will Shinji ever be able to think of Rei the same way again...?
A great book! Yes wonderful indeed

This Manga was great. As it nears the ending of the series it just gets better and better. For those of you who have seen the anime it is very nice to be able to read/see the difference between the manga and the anime. I liked the manga a lot better. It keeps your attention and in the end leaves you wanting more. It was a very enjoyable book!
At Long Last!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
We who have followed this series have waited a long time for this installment of the manga version of the Evangelion saga. Similarities to the anime are still there, but differences make themselves felt. In some ways, we get a greater view into the psyches of the characters -- what they are thinking and feeling at points in the story. The focus on the relationships between Shinji, Rei, Asuka, and even Kaworu, even as they battle the latest Angel, underplays the action. Oh, yes, and deep secrets of Nerv and the Evangelions are revealed. The artwork continues to be outstanding, and my anticipation for the next volume grows. To fans of the anime and manga, I hardly need recommend it - to the curious, please give it a reading... but start at the beginning to enjoy it all. Having torn through this volume to see what happened, I will probably reread from the start to enjoy it all again.
