Final volume of Evangelion manga includes bonus story with new character

By The Eva Monkey on Saturday, July 19th, 2014

The final volume of Yoshiyuki’s Sadamoto’s Neon Genesis manga is currently slated for simultaneous release this November.  A limited release in Japan will feature an original cover, bookends that will hold the entire 14-volume run, and some details have just been released at the Evangelion exhibit that it will include a bonus story that will include an original female character.  There will also be an audio CD included containing music that Sadamoto enjoyed listening to while working on the Evangelion manga.

Personally, having followed the Evangelion manga for the past 13 years, I am very pleased to see the release of the final volume, which I see as the proper conclusion, even though the final stage ran in Young Ace last June.  It will be nice to complete the full set.
