Average rating4.3
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... Shinji's breaking point has now come, and he resigns in fury, departing even as the mighty Angel Zeruel smashes towards NERV HQ. Kaji, who has put such doubts in his mind, may also be the only one who can convince Shinji to return, for his own, dark personal reasons... Eva Vol. 7 contains a Japanese sound FX glossary plus a special bonus essay on the intriguing Biblical references of Evangelion!

On the surface, this seemed like it was going to be a fairly standard adventure hero sort of plot. His friends dead and injured, our protagonist leaves the Evangelion project, returning only after the city is attacked again and he realizes that he alone can save it.
Of course, this being Evangelion, there is a lot more than just that going on. We learn the real reason that all these monsters keep attacking Tokyo, and the relationship that the NERV organization has with the tragedies that have killed half of Earth's population. Most shockingly, we also learn that the giant robots aren't actually giant robots, but living things, and we see our hero get broken down on a quantum level until only his disembodied spirit exists within the hulking frame that he used to pilot.
