In case you missed it, the first 6 minutes and 38 seconds from Evangelion 3.0 popped up on the internet earlier today, after having been aired on Nippon Television Network along with TV edits of Evangelion 1.0 and 2.0, in promotion of Evangelion 3.0, which is being released to Japanese theaters tomorrow (the 17th), although […]

As I said previously, Viz reissued volumes 1-3 of the Evangelion manga in an omnibus format which many retailers are referring to as “3-in-1”. Previously, I couldn’t find a photo of the book, or the book itself for that matter, so I was kind of weary. It’s an odd philosophical thing (like the tree falling […]

One of the biggest weaknesses Yoshiyuki Sadamoto’s Evangelion manga has is its sporadic progress over a long length of time. The series has had 13 volumes in about 18 years. Keeping an ongoing series of that age in print can be a difficult task for a publisher. Many of the old volumes, especially volume 9, […]

Today, Viz Media released volume 13 of the Evangelion manga, and for the first time, released it simultaneously with the release in Japan. Usually, we wait a good 6-12 months to get an English version here in North America, so I’m pleased, as they apparently pushed very hard to get it out sooner rather than […]

Either we’re beginning to see the full force of the blitzkrieg of promotion for Evangelion 3.0, or there’s some huge cross section of Evangelion and Horse Racing fans in Japan that I’m completely unaware of. At any rate, there are two ads that involve this weird Eva Unit-01/Horse hybrid thing called “Eva-Impact”, whose origin is […]

I may have spoken too soon about the lack of footage from Evangelion 3.0. I also kind of wish the eva-nets was like tumblr so I can just hit reblog and be done. At any rate, if you haven’t heard via EvaGeeks, Niconico did some sort of site update cross-promotion thing where they unveiled some […]

News of Evangelion 3.0 has been surprisingly sparse, I can only think of one video that’s been released thus far with footage. So it’s interesting to hear that the first 6 minutes and 38 seconds of Evangelion 3.0 will air on NTV in Japan the day before it’s to open in theaters. I find this […]

It was revealed at the EVA-EXTRA live screening event in Japan that Evangelion 3.0 will be release on November 17th, 2012. They showed a recap of both 1.0 and 2.0, and then showed a new next time preview for 3.0 that, like the other one, showed Asuka in Eva Unit-02 doing her typical badass thing. […]

Last weekend I had the pleasure of being a panelist again at Anime Boston, hosting panels predominately of interest to Evangelion fans, however I also tackled a panel on retro game collecting, which is another hobby of mine. Thanks to those of you who checked out my panels, particularly those of you who went to […]

This shit. THIS SHIT RIGHT HERE. Now that I am fully recovered from Anime Boston, I was going to do a post-Anime Boston update. But then I saw this ridiculous bullshit and I was like “This cannot wait. I must blog about this immediately.” And that’s where you come in. It’s like Evangelion and My […]
