Maybe I'm a bit weird for being one of those people who likes viewing all the different takes different creators have for a franchise. But I'd really like to see Sadamoto or someone similar take a swing at making the manga adaptation of 3.0. I haven't really seen anyone either official or unofficial really take a swing at adapting the film into a Manga.

What do you guys think, would a Manga adaptation of Q work?

Only Tony Takezaki should be allowed to do it.

*googles* Gundam? Did he pen a really well-received new take?

My first instinct would be to hope for dat Sadamoto art because Sadamoto. But given how divided the opinion is of his actual writing ability, it kinda makes me wish manga made a distinction between the writer and artist the way American comics do. :lol:

Well, there were rumors years ago (no idea where they originated from) that Sadamoto was going work on an NTE-take manga once he was done with NGE. Think it was just a rumor though, since he's back to his original manga stories: https://forum.evageeks.org/post/770033/Looking-for-other-YS-mangas-Koto-no-Oni-and-Archaic-Smile/#770033

And I wouldn't mind an NTE (not just Q) parody book by Takezaki either. ^_^
