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...

5.0 out of 5 stars At Long Last!, April 11, 2007

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth The Wait, May 14, 2007

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...?

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!
