Got my copy of Side A today. Made a post about my initial reactions while skimming through: here.
May make additional posts and such as I actually give it a thorough read.

Since something I wanted to import from Japan in October (birth month) is getting a December U.S. release ('Moon figure), I'm now seriously considering getting Side A and B as birthday presents or something.
I mean, it might have info that's well known to me (considering NGE2 PS2/PSP info), but having it all in 1 place + Eva 20th Anniversary makes me feel like I should do something special(?) for it.

I did an illustrated review of Side A, and tried to provide information that would still be of interest to people who already received their copies of the book. For example, I also have the French version of this book, so I was able to provide the text that is missing from the English edition due to the infamous misprint. I discussed other significant differences between the English and French versions as well (for one thing, the English version has three other mistakes in addition to the misprint!). There's some other nifty stuff too, so I hope you enjoy the review! I made this new post for it on my book review thread.

Can someone tell me what, if any, information about the characters/world/etc. these books contain that isn't mentioned in the show?
Life can seem a challenge. Life can seem impossible. It's never easy when so much is on the line.

In addition to being an asshole father, he's also a fashion 'tard. What is this, the '80s? You think you're Gordon Gekko, you Machiavellian motherfucker?
Among the people who use the Internet, many are obtuse. Because they are locked in their rooms, they hang on to that vision which is spreading across the world. But this does not go beyond mere ‘data’. Data without analysis [thinking], which makes you think that you know everything. This complacency is nothing but a trap. Moreover, the sense of values that counters this notion is paralyzed by it.

Turtlenecks are about to come back into style next winter, though. Just look at James Bond.

Yes, I know. You thought it would be something about Asuka. You're such idiots.
