Is this different enough from the show and rebuilds to be worth reading?

Is this different enough from the show and rebuilds to be worth reading?

Yes.

Be prepared for extremely gay Shinji.

Gayer than the third rebuild shinji?

Yes, even gayer than that.

Pretty much every chapter has something unique to the manga.

How is that even possible

wrong question, a better question:
is there more romance between shinji/rei/asuka?

The Kaworu x Shinji is much more blatant and sexualized, Rei and Shinji's relationship is a lot more prominent too (though still platonic), Asuka gets sidelined but she shows up at the end even though it's Kensuke who wins the Shinjibowl since Shaun is a closet case.

OP here, is that spoiler a maymay I can read or an actual spoiler

It reveals some things about the ending so read at your own risk.

i just want more shinji x asuka what bullshit is this

Blame Sadamoto, he's a Reifag.

but he rejects Kaworu's advances

Shinji isn't a whiny little bitch in this

How many times does this thread need to be made before you people learn to think for yourselves?

Because I don't want to read an entire manga before realizing it wasn't worth it. Is that a complicated concept to you?

He was just being tsun, later he admits his feelings for him

Why nobody is working in translate ANIMA? In all honestly is the most intersting concept of Evangelion I have seen to date, I dare to say it seems even more interesting that the main series.

People ironically ship Shinji and Asuka?

Is it alright for someone's introduction to eva to be the manga?

I recommended eva to a friend but he's more of a manga reader than an anime watcher, so I was thinking about telling him to read the manga instead.

I've read the first few chapters of it myself and am enjoying it but I feel I'm missing something that I got from the show.

Do you mean unironically?

tsundere sure

but it;'s not like the other Shinjis that want his cock from the get go

No. I can't believe it.

Because Manga Kaworu is autistic.
But what I mean by extremely gay Shinji is that he was only interested in Kaworu /that/ way and not the girls.

...
If you say that "people do x unironically?"
you mean "people do x in a serious way and not in a non-joking way? I can't believe it"
If you say "people do x ironically?" it sounds like you can't believe people do x in a non serious way. Like they should do x in a serious way.
I just don't think that you're conveying what you're trying to convey.

Its shit

Kaworu gets to actually fight in an Eva and wrecks shit with a giant chainsaw.

The final bonus chapter with Mari in it is completely stupid and pointless. It only serves to make things confusing.

nah

theres some differences but otherwise unless you like sarcastic shinji its not worth it.

he turns into his usual bitch self during the eoe volumes anyways

nah, the shows better. the manga should be seen as side material, considering the major characterization differences and 4 less angels

It's pretty easy, manga is for reifags, anime is for asukafags. The manga deepens much more in Shinji and Rei relationship, while Asuka is barely a secondary character and its left MUCH more clear that she doesn't hold any romantic feeling towards Shinji, but she do end up accepting him.
Though i'm an asukafag and I prefer the manga much more than the anime, except for the ending.

Shinji is interested in girls in manga and his relationship with kaworu was non sexual like-hate. He ends up with Asuka. Don't listen to the retarded fujo.

>Sadamoto: In fact, Shinji and Rei, and Shinji and Asuka, their touch stopped at holding hands. Everytime they hold their hands, it has a different meaning. It is one fun fact about EVA……So I never intend to let the children’s relationship go beyond that. On the contrary, Kaworu is the only one who overstep the boundary, he break the rule.
He doesn't end up with Asuka just because he sees her in the last chapter, if you want to you can say that but he also sees Kensuke so Kensuke won too.
Don't listen to the retarded ESLfag.

Yeah, he really hates him.

At least admit that using fan translations is reterded on your side. Shinji never says that he was sexually attracted to Kaworu. Just look at the bath scene and see Shinji's disgusted face when Kaworu gets too close to him

So disgusted he pelvic thrusts towards him and grabs him while he was kissing him. Fan translation is also the correct translation. You keep on doing this every thread, ESLfag, aren't you bored? Also learn to sage please.

Haven't watched the anime or the movies, but I enjoyed the manga. They go a bit more in depth with Haji's past

If you reple to me, you sure care about what everyone else thinks and no the official translations are correct. Not going to bother with your delusional yaoi

Nope, you don't know any moon so what you say is irrelevant. Also Sadomoto himself says Shinji is interested in Kaworu so you gonna go "Death of the Author" now?
Learn to sage, stupid!

He said it's a delicate feeling like admiration of your idol.

Other Shinjis also likes girls, this one is just closeted gay.

Anime Shinji is a bislut. Rebuild Shinji seems pretty asexual ken doll with some romantic undertones with everyone. Manga Shinji is just fucking gay. Sadamoto even said he wasn't into girls.
His personality is pretty different too. He punches Gendo.

Another delusional fujo. Shinji is heterosexual in the manga and in anime it's just that his sexuality is shown in anime while the key scenes are missing in manga

I like how fujos bury themselves in their nonsense. Do you realise what you're saying? He also blushes at Kaworu in rebuilds does that mean it also wasn't sexual blushing in anime like you said? Pure comedy.

See:

Shinji and Asuka have a closer sibling like relationships. They are more friends. Shinji is actually concerned about her instead of trying to use her because he's lonely. But he has no romantic feelings for her and viceversa. Sadamoto said Shinji wasn't interested in girls (his sexual tension is with Kaworu).

Asuka and Shinji don't kiss. She challenges him to do it enough for him to accept much to his dismay but were interrupted. Asuka gets really upset Kaji misunderstood this and gets sick for days with Shinji being a bro and supporting her feelings for Kaji (in fact when he pictures her mentally as important, she clings to Kaji). One scene she strips to her underwear for Kaji to see her as an adult but he can't return her feelings. Her feelings for him are 100% serious, it's even in her profile. When she's tanged, she sees Kaji and tearfully cries out happiness muttering "See, I knew you loved me back."

And fap scene? What fap scene. Asuka strangles Shinji in the hospital when he visits her.

Sadamoto jokes how he drew the cpr scene and in results it's the closest contact Shinji got in the manga

>He said it's a delicate feeling like admiration of your idol.
No, he didn't. Stop being deluded when he wrote how embarrassed he was about the kiss. How could autistic Manga Kaworu be an idol to anyone, idiot? He acted like just out of a pod and learning socialization. You haven't read the manga.

Are you trying to spoil everything for him?

He doesn't call it CPR, he calls it a kiss. He said he was just as embarassed as Kaworu to admit it. Kaworu fucking hated loving Shinji in the manga which in turn made Shinji lash out. They were both awful people.

I'm only warning to not read the manga expecting romantic development between them. They have a more healthy relationship, but it's platonic. I think that's what they needed too.

Don't respond to the retarded troll, he does this every thread.

Well Asuka is a cute girl and they have similar pasts, both have electra complex. I guess that's more than enough reason to "ship" them though.

The ending is the world reborn again after Rei explodes into snow (yes, really). The Shinji we knew along with everyone else is dead. But most people are reborn and living a normal life (the Evas are found and regarded as relics of the past: millions of years have passed). "Shinji" meets "Asuka" and "Kensuke" who might go to the same school as he in the future. He also carries Misato's cross. Some color spreads might hint that he's different from the previous ones (eyes of a different color). Yui said the world has been reborn many times.

While we only see Kensuke, Asuka and Shinji, Sadamoto did make a color spread with all the kids in winter clothes (including Kaworu, Rei and Touji -who dies during the Eva 03 incident-). He also said he was leaving the ending open, so you can assume they all eventually meet and lead normal lives. Or whatever you please. It's a fairly open ending.

He says it's natural male male bond how delusional fujos can be. The Shinji's fap scene is ultimate "fuck you" to fujos. Shinji isn't going to cry after his husbando he's interested in females and doen't give a fuck about Kaworu.

>bringing up non related anime
Really shows how desperate you are.

It's a pity that Sadamoto didn't include it. It really puts fujoshi down because and shows them they can't possibly understand an adolescent boy

Yep, Shinji is straight. You can get confused about stuff at that age, though. Doesn't mean anything.

esl-kun why are you calling sadamoto out for his fudanshi ways, just accept the gay

This.

Plus, several minor changes, some major changes in some battles with the angels. More detailed back-story of certain characters (Kaji, Gendo, Fuyutsuki, Ritsuko and Shinji's mom). Also, good ending , I guess. I felt it to be a little anticlimactic after, what was it, 20 years?

I'd say it was worth following (or better said, trying to follow) only if you we're really into NGE, but now that it's finished it's short enough (95 "stages") to breeze through it.

Retake remains the best NGE manga imo.

Retake is shit.

He can't, that would mean accepting himself.

That's what i'm saying he's heterosexual and his attraction to Kaworu was non sexual

Why fujos are so fucking dumb?

How can he be straight if he was only interested in Kaworu and none of the girls? You are one stupid faggot.

Keep deluding yourself disgusting fujo

>Retake remains the best NGE manga imo.
This. Although, even as an Asukafag I couldn't forgive what they did to Ray2 and Kawrou in that douijn. Rei's red paint bullshit and suicide was just retarded and Shinji would have never maliciously murdered Kawrou like that.

>Sadamoto says he was the only one to have a romantic relationship with Shinji, Rei and Asuka were platonic
>Shinji admits he was attracted to him even though he "didn't want to fall in love with a boy like that"
>Pulls him closer during their kiss
>Pelvic thrusts towards him in the showers
No it seems like you're deluding yourself :^)

And you don't mind how everyone was completely out of character?

He's a fucking idiot user. Why do you bother?

He's infecting others with his bullshit.

>Retake remains the best NGE manga imo.
I'm sorry, that's not Raising Project

Puchi Eva*

Did you even get Retake? Shinji didn't want to repeat his past mistakes, of course he's going to fucking change.

Asuka from NGE was perfectly in character. She loathed Shinji with every fiber of her being after what happened.

The other Asuka (Who I gathered is from the manga's universe) was an even more vapid and manipulating cunt then her NGE counterpart. So she's obviously not going to be the same.

Everything else except for what was already mention here seemed fine to me

This fujo lies. It's ambiguous at best. and the reset ending is better than the EoE giant faces bullshit or CONGRATULATIONS

>Eva harem shit
>best manga
Yeah, sure user

Yeah kissing and naked showering and love confessions are so ambiguous.

Nope.

Wait, are you saying that NGE Shinji didn't just go back in time but he literally inserted himself into the body of Shinji in the manga universe?

low_quality_bait.jpg

рузоотправители Аска глупы, не беспокойтесь

Manga's not worth reading. Like any other Eva stuff that came out after OG, it's just a fujo bait without any significant message.

If you're baseline is low enough that you consider Rebuild worth watching then the manga is certainly worthwhile since it's mostly pretty good.

>>Sadamoto says he was the only one to have a romantic relationship with Shinji, Rei and Asuka were platonic
You're fucking delusional. How could it be romantic if Kaworu was an ass and Shinji didn't want to be close to him
>>Shinji admits he was attracted to him even though he "didn't want to fall in love with a boy like that"
Fuck off with your fujo translation
>>Pulls him closer during their kiss
It wasn't a pull closer he literally wanted to pull him off.
>>Pelvic thrusts towards him in the showers
What the fuck where do you see this bullshit?
Even if my english is shit no one would believe your fujo bullshit

>Retake remains the best NGE manga imo.
My little anons can't be this retarded.

Wow you're really this stupid. Countless official translated interviews involving both Sadamoto and Anno confirm Shinji was in love with Kaworu in both canons. Why the fuck does this bother you that Shinji was homo? You in the closet or something faggot?

>Retake is shit
>I'm a hive mind faggot from 2010
Nice penny stock meme user

>manga
Nope, shit incarnate.
Worth reading Eva doujinshi are Nobi Nobito's work about Asuka, Peppy Angel's works, maybe the ones by Monkey's Taste. Can't remember anything else.

>no Saigado

Retake is shit, passage of time doesn't change that.
Retake is a shitty and unofficial fanfiction. Not worth reading anymore than anyone elses' fanwank.

>Retake is shit because buzzword buzzword buzzword from 2010.
>I have no fucking original thought because I'm a hive-minded faggot

It's shit, it's a fact, calling it 'unofficial' it's not a buzz word, it's a fact. calling it 'fanfiction' it's not a buzz word it's a fact.
Retake is shit.

>shitty and unofficial fanfiction
That just so happens to be better then all the manga and Rebuild movies put together.

No, it's shit. it might be better than the Rebuilds, but that's not saying much. Most Eva doujins are.

Fact or fiction doesn't make a buzzword. It's just a word you can conveniently use so that you don't have to actually use you're brain picking apart what is actually bad about the thing you don't like.

You might as well just say "It's bad because me and a bunch of faggots from ten years ago agreed that it was shit."

>muh official
>m-muh fanfiction
Gee, do I see a fujoshi trying to protect her ship and denying everything else? I wouldn't say Re-Take is good, in fact, it's quite rushed and I would prefer more development, but you seem to be quite insecure about something
>that disgusting language
Maybe you should go back to tumblr, landwhale?

How do you know it's not a Reifag? They're usually the ones who hate Retake.

Again passage of time doen't change facts. Retake was shit when it was written, it was shit ten years ago, it is shit now, and it will be shit 10 years from now. Only deluded Asukafags push, and they're so deranged about it that they push it as if it was part of the franchise and not a shitty doujin.
Not a fujoshi, not a tumblrit, just a person with standards.

Retake is shit.

Anno literally said shinji isnt sexually attracted to kaworu and makes him masturbate to girls day after he kills him

>Not a fujoshi, not a tumblrit, just a person with standards
>a person with standarts
Gee, so you have standards? Recommend me some Evangelion doujisnhi or fan fiction that's matching your so-called "standards". I'm intrigued.
