I should have said "I’ll be back".

Given just three more weeks, and it would mark not only the fourteenth anniversary of Evangelion, but also one year since I discontinued Eva Monkey. It was not a decision I came to easily, having run this site for an extended period of time. But I needed time to move onto other things and grow as an individual. While I have done that a bit, I realized just how much I’ve missed the Evangelion fandom, not to mention running this site. It depresses me to see how traffic has languished, and it confuses me to see how high my site still manages to rank in Google despite that. Seriously, how can you stop running a site for almost a year and still manage to stay in the top results in Google?
So I decided to bring the site back. While it’s not especially important, today, which marks the eighth anniversary of the fictional event we all know as “Second Impact”, will just have to do. Past readers will notice some things will change considerably from what Eva Monkey was in the past. I don’t intend to focus on deep analysis, or focus on trying to explain all the intricate minutia of Evangelion. I don’t intend to chronicle the entirety of the Evangelion. I don’t intend to maintain an episode guide or a characters guide. No one cares about that anyways. Instead, I intend to serve you up a small portion of news and fandom on a periodic basis. My overly optimistic plan is to update each Monday. We’ll have to wait and see how well that pans out.
That being said, I’m glad to be back, and I’m eager to get back into the thick of this monster that I simply cannot be rid of. If you have any comments, suggestions, or feedback, feel free to hit me up at
theevamonkey@evamonkey.com. If I stick to my plans, I’ll have something up on Monday.
