[Neon Genesis Evangelion] Bring it on, apostles or whatever!!

The robot my dad created that didn’t need me… Is it now needing me? Hmph, interesting. I’ll do it! I won’t let my dad call me a coward. I’m not afraid of dying. 80

1: Japan Otaku Reviews

I haven’t read the manga version, is it interesting?

I’ve heard that Kaoru-kun is a bothersome guy.

2: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx19

>>1

The manga version is the most interesting and has a proper story.

Asuka won’t be forced to stick with something weird just to go against the trend either.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>1

Shin-chan is acting a bit like a boy, just like in the picture.

It’s not as pathetic as anime.

It seems like it’s outside of Anno’s plan.

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

A happy ending? I think it was, right?

7: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>3

Starting over in a world without Eva or Angels.

8: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>3

It has been captured that they were in a romantic relationship.

4: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx10

The reason I ultimately can’t come to like the manga version is because of Madao.

I’ll break all your front teeth!

9: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx17

>>4

I don’t dislike it because it’s easy to understand in its own way.

19: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx12

>>4

No, Madao is all of that, right?

I hate you from the front! The manga version is even better.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>19

Anime doesn’t hate Shinji in either the TV series, the old movie, or the new movie…

37: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

>>29

Isn’t it a problem that you have that attitude even though you don’t hate me?!

5: Japan Otaku Reviews

The only thing I remember is when I pushed down Ayanami while she was completely naked, her nipples were fully exposed.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>5

I pulled it until I was about to die.

6: Japan Otaku Reviews

World Reconstruction End

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like the manga version because it’s not that gloomy and easy to read.

11: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I don’t really understand why it looped.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews

This Shinji-kun is quite aggressive.

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Shinji is the angriest in the manga version.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like the manga version of Shinji because he expresses what he wants to say clearly.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews

The fact that it was finished quickly is quite appealing on its own.

17: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx35

>>15

No… it’s not over quickly, is it…?

23: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>17

It may be too much to say “for sure,” but… it’s still better than the new version!

16: Japan Otaku Reviews

I really like that it’s winter.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t really know how it ended, though.

I remember that Shin-chan got angry when he saw Kaworu throw and kill the kitten.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

If Shin-chan is strong, Misato-san’s eye patch will get tighter.

21: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Toji will die.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>21

I think there are parts where they did things that were planned for the TV version but couldn’t be done.

Of course, the difference in style between the director and the author is likely a larger factor.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>21

After that, Kensuke and Shinji’s phone calls are enjoyable.

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>35

Is it different from the anime?

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

Madou is Madou across all media…

24: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

The foundation follows the flow of the old Eva while organizing the parts that were lacking in explanation or chaotic, making it much clearer, and the characters’ personalities are relatively more outgoing.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, O-tada was also working on other character design jobs while serialized…

27: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Rather than a new play after being kept waiting…

28: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

>>27

It was just better than the new play, but I was still waiting for the comics!

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

I quite like the manga version of Shinji.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews

Shinji and Rei from the manga, which is clearly stated to be mutual feelings.

32: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

I like how Shinji properly rushes to the mass-produced machine battle, maintaining the larger flow without the contrary feeling from the time of the original film, allowing me to see things straightforwardly.

56: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>32

But I was able to fight well normally, and then the time came, and the forced opening event of Gaf’s door was terrible!

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s great to be a proper teenager, like saying “Let’s stop by the arcade on the way back!”

34: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

In the past, I used to read it thinking it was just a direct manga adaptation of the anime, but looking back on it calmly, there are quite a lot of scenes that only appear in one version.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was really shocked when I read for the first time that Toji died.

38: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I love the scene in the manga where Shinji is drinking tea with Ayanami in her room.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

While being consistent with LRS, the ending satisfies both factions by having Asuka meet as a symbol of future encounters.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s kind of funny when Gendo deflects bullets with the AT field.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews

Shinji is of course different, but Asuka is also quite different.

42: Japan Otaku Reviews

Let’s go to the rooftop; I’ll take out all your front teeth.

43: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Since it’s a monthly magazine, if I publish 6 episodes, the anime will start airing and end before that, huh?

You did well to carry it through to the end.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder what Mari, who forcefully blended into the manga version, is all about.

46: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>44

Isn’t it just more than a mere movie promotion?

45: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

What’s great is that you can read the entire work with Sadamoto’s artwork at its peak.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

Rather, the story is too well-structured, which feels off.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

How about this side?

How about this side?

Kadokawa Comics A Neon Genesis Evangelion: Apostles Training Plan 18 Manga Takahashi Osamu Original Color

49: Japan Otaku Reviews

Kaji is no longer that mysterious watermelon guy.

50: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Mr. Kaji has a tragic past… (Seriously sad)

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>50

After losing my family, I joined a group of vagrants and was stealing supplies when a UN soldier killed one of my companions.

It would have seemed like the Self-Defense Forces were active in Japan, but they looked like foreign soldiers in some way…

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

In terms of BL, this version of Kaworu seems to resonate more with the feeling of being attached while distorting each other.

53: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

The manga version of Shinji shows a pretty cheeky side, which is nice.

54: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Rather, after all that Gendo has done, he finally becomes honest at the end, making one think he really should just stop it already in the new movie.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

What do you mean I’ve been made to wait even though I haven’t read the manga version?

58: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Cute

Cute

Sure, here’s the extracted text: “` I won’t do it! Huh!? Nyakon, why!? What are you throwing a tantrum about!? Now, retreat!! The recovery route is from behind the mountain, number 34! Shuyao. Uutsu. Retreat… 96 “`

62: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>58

The title of this episode, “The Trials of a Maniac,” is also nicely witty.

59: Japan Otaku Reviews

Shin-chan suddenly appears in Asuka’s pinch looking incredibly cool.

60: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

One reason for creating Evangelion was as a counterargument to the portrayal of civilians and minors smoothly fighting enemies and winning right after appearing in super robot shows and Gundam. It’s certain that the image of a protagonist courageously facing such difficulties head-on is not what Anno wanted to depict.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>60

Shinji in the thread image is not a hero character, and his reason for piloting the Eva is due to his complex about his father.

61: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s nice that Kaworu-kun has a rough feeling appropriate for his age.

Even when piloting the Eva and fighting the Angels, I am aggressive.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

Boy meets girl, it’s great, isn’t it?

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

Shinji can actually endure the part where he fights the Angels with his life on the line.

67: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

That’s nice…

That's nice...

If you’re going to come to help anyway, come sooner. You’re really slow, you idiot Shinji.

74: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>67

Well, I’m going to restart it, though.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews

The relationship with Kaworu was a bit nuanced, wasn’t it? It feels like the anime and the Rebuilds got along a bit too well.

70: Japan Otaku Reviews

But in the manga version, Toji dies…

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the end, the fact that my friends Toji and Ayanami became sacrifices is a bigger deal.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews

The life at the place where I was entrusted was somewhat depicted, right?

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even a strategy with a win rate of a few percent can be executed casually, can’t it, Shinji-kun?

75: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

A world line where “Tameshite Gatten” is being broadcast.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was refreshing to see Kaworu-kun fighting in the Eva.

77: Japan Otaku Reviews

By the way, is Toji still alive in the last world?

79: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>77

There’s a high possibility, but since Shinji and the others go to a smart school, it seems like they won’t meet.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is this interesting?

Kadokawa Comics A New Century Piko Piko Middle School Legends STAGE 1 Yushi Kawata Yukito Original Color

Is this interesting?

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>78

I remember hearing a story that adults are terrible, so the independence of the kids’ group is impressive.

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>78

It’s funny.

90: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>78

The understanding of Eva is high.

93: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>78

The easiest-to-understand metaphor about Kaworu-kun has arrived in all media of Evangelion.

80: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

In the manga version, Shinji tends to speak out fairly quickly instead of keeping things bottled up, and he’s also quite quick to act.

In that sense, Madao is worse than both the old and the new.

82: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

That’s surprising!

92: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>82

It seems like someone is making jokes but actually explaining Eva in a quite understandable way…

96: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>82

The reason why Shinji’s AT Field was broken in the new story is explained by this, it’s funny.

I think it’s technically different, but…

84: Japan Otaku Reviews

While incorporating the developments I wanted to see, the basic flow hasn’t changed.

I think there were more constraints than in the new play that was redone.

85: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Every time I hear about the spleen, I still think of Toji.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

Shinji who makes Toji repay his debt.

Shinji who breaks all his front teeth.

94: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>86

It’s a little boyish, isn’t it?

87: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s the Eva where Gendo didn’t love Shinji.

88: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’ll break all your front teeth!!!

89: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s nice to see Touji confess everything and feel scared.

…died

91: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I loved you, but I couldn’t say it.

Manga: I don’t love you.

I’m really bad at dealing with relatives and stuff, Dad…

98: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>91

I

You.

I hate it!

I remember something about a bang!!

110: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>98

Because I’m the only one who has Yui Ikari’s affection… Shin-chan.

100: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>91

Among these, the old one feels the flattest.

It feels like I’m saying “I love you” only at the end.

95: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I thought the Sadamoto version started first, but then the anime ended, the old movie ended, and when people were saying how long it was taking, the new movie started, and just when it got to Q, the movie that started later ended first. Meanwhile, Shin kept getting postponed, and the Sadamoto version ended first.

97: Japan Otaku Reviews

Kaoru-kun is making interesting moves in every work…

99: Japan Otaku Reviews

I love the character development of Kaworu-kun in this manga the most.

Interpretation of the last scene and the double-page spread as well.

101: Japan Otaku Reviews

Teacher Fuyutsuki watched Gendo from a prime seat.

102: Japan Otaku Reviews

The scripture of the LRS faction.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews

Pikopiko has a happy ending, which is great.

However, Toji’s Kansai dialect has just become a character trait…

104: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want to recommend it, but depending on how people react to that initial Kaworu-kun’s move, they might take damage and fade out right there.

105: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

The basic attitude is generally.

Huh? What is it? Do you have some kind of complaint??

That’s the vibe of Shinji-kun.

114: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>105

Shin-chan is relatively acting like a typical rebellious teenager.

106: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was probably the author’s hobby, but the pin-up of Shinji and the trio dressed in sporty outfits on their cross bikes felt fresh at the time.

You often see it in apparel collaborations now.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews

Huh~?? I seriously can’t forgive you for monopolizing Yui’s affection!!? → Maybe it wasn’t so bad… (in the face of death)

108: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think Shinji is the most ordinary-looking boy.

109: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>108

Would a normal boy really break his front teeth?

111: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s an interesting phenomenon that most fan works tend to follow the flow of mass production machines versus the first unit.

112: Japan Otaku Reviews

Ace → Young Ace → Eva Ace, it’s the magazine where they are published.

113: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s obvious, but in every series, Yui’s feelings for Shinji are genuine.

117: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>113

If that didn’t exist, then the existence of Evangelion itself wouldn’t stand.

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>113

Because… I wanted Shin-chan to live, so I was trying to turn Eva into an Ark, wasn’t I…?

115: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s been a rebellious phase even before the main story starts…

116: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the manga version, Gendo is not cute.

119: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have memories of it being the Asuka end.

123: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>119

In the main story, Shinji is solely focused on Rei and Asuka is solely focused on Kaji, so the relationship between Shinji and Asuka is nothing more than that of close roommates, but in the reset world at the end, Asuka appears as a symbol of new encounters.

121: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s sad that Yui seems to have eyes only for Shinji, but it’s okay since Gendo looks happy.

122: Japan Otaku Reviews

Gendo is generally cute in versions other than the Sadamoto one.

124: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>122

Pico pico too?

125: Japan Otaku Reviews

The manga version of Shin-chan has a stronger rebellious spirit, doesn’t it?
