Shinji as a detective? In fear of sounding too much like Collegehumors' POVs; how is this even possible!?

I know, I'm an idiot for liking Angelic Days but even the detective thing makes me go "lol wut"

I guess whenever people stop asking him to design characters for movies like The Girl Who Leapt Through Time and Summer Wars. I am stuck on volume 11 of the manga. We have a ways to go before we are anywhere near the end.

I am surprised to see how they can still keep Evangelion going after all these years with multiple spin-off manga series. All they need to do is slap on the "Evangelion" name on just about anything and it is as good as printing money.

Personally, I want a new Evangelion manga set in another alternate universe where they all form some kind of club after school in a vacated clubroom, but they're one member short of the number required for the club to be officially recognized by the school.

There's not nearly enough manga like that these days.

umm, there have been 8 more chapters since volume 11 (stages 77-84). i'm thinking it's pretty close to the end too since stage 83 ends with the scene from end of evangelion where misato stuffs shinji into the elevator.

Then SEELE sends their children to the same school, and they join the student council, and antagonize Shinji, Rei, Asuka, and the other club members. Yeah, it'd be great! Wink

I did not know that Sadamoto is still working on the manga. It has been a long time since a tankōbon has been released. After you posted your reply, I looked around and found out that the next compiled volume will be the last. I guess Sadamoto is possibly planning on incorporating spoiler[The End of Evangelion] as by the scene you described.

Thanks for letting me know about the additional chapters. Otherwise, I would not have thought of looking up the status of the Evangelion manga.

Maybe they should just make an official Evangelion yaoi manga to satiate the fangirl's heart?

Gee, sounds like Gakuen Datenroku didn't fail hard enough to satisfy these guys.
