Well, if you're really interested in that topic, you could try writing down your predictions; I've already registered a number of predictions on the release schedule: http://www.gwern.net/otaku-predictions#manga-1

"Ikari-kun, what is it you wish for..?"

"W-well I've always liked those little ice cream cups with the sprinkles..."

I wonder why Stage 86 has been available in Spanish for weeks now but there's still no sign of an English version... Kinda annoying.

SEELE-01 · Postby **SEELE-01** » Tue Oct 18, 2011 6:47 pm

It means: learn spanish...
It's way easier than Japanese...

Our very own cool guy Number-kun did a text translation of stage 86 in previous page of this thread. Look it up.

EDIT: ...and I never even thanked him. Thanks, 1731298478! Your translation was very much appreciated.

I know Spanish... I just like the English language better, trust English translators more and it's the language in which I've read every single chapter thus far, so I'd like to stick with it.

And yeah I suppose there is an English translation, but it's separate from the actual pages and it's not as enjoyable reading it like that. Oh well, no point in bitching about people not working for free. I just find it weird how the most obscure manga out there get scanlations, yet freaking Evangelion doesn't have one for a chapter that's been out for a month. I guess Sadamoto's endless procrastinating has created a lot of disinterest in it.

Stage 87's been discussed online, some images are up too. No idea about scans.

SPOILER: Show

Rei returns to Lilith to become GNR. Shinji has the Stigma in Eva-01. Haven't seen anything about Asuka.

From the sample images online (Here by the way: http://blog.livedoor.jp/abacabu/archives/50853232.html ) he did, and it's bloody as hell with losing Adam compared to the anime. >=3

As an aside, Gendo undressing Rei somehow adds to the creepy factor of the Adam-grope. Ugh.

Not to mention Rei blushing in that way that anime girls do when...well...yknow...think Episode 23

SPOILER: Show

Not sure about Gendo's face when Rei has rejected him though:

'BuggabuggaWHAAAA??'

And shinjis hands. Yikes.

SPOILER: Show

Man Gendo actually striped down Rei now that was disturbing at least in EoE she was already naked. I was knida hoping that Gendo would end up being the final boss but oh well. Any way things are more hopeful for the manga by the looks of it Shinji does not have as much psychological damage as his anime counterpart so maybe he won’t be like kill them all (unless GNR or the eva series pull a dick move and kill Asuka)

Damn, the sonofabitch...

...and then the rest is...

...history as we know it.

Postby **Sailor Star Dust** » Fri Nov 04, 2011 9:28 am

Before I forget, here's the rundown of what's being said from the sample images. http://blog.livedoor.jp/abacabu/archives/50853232.html Should tide us over until we get a proper translation out. (Inb4 this pretty much IS the Stage Translation and I facepalm greatly at Sadamoto's laziness.)

Stage 87: I'm home (Summary/translation) SPOILER: Show

Stage 87: I'm home (Summary/translation) wrote:Evangelion Stage 87: I'm home.

Young Ace December Issue.

(Description: Gendo undresses Rei.)

Gendo: Adam is already together with me, this is the only way to meet with Yui once again. The forbidden union of Adam and Lilith.

Gendo: Your A.T. Field can't maintain its shape, there's no time left.

Gendo: Release the A.T. Field, the wall of the heart. Throw away unnecessary bodies, (bring) damaged hearts into complementation, and merge all souls into one now.

Rei: U...

---

Shinji: Haa haa haa

Kiel: Eva-01 is engraved with the stigma. Now is the time for the revival of the Tree in the center. Our servants, the Eva Series, are here for this moment.

(Description: The Eva Series' S2 Engine is released!)

---

Gendo: Come now, lead me to the place where Yui is, Rei.

(Description: Rejection of Gendo.)

Rei: It's different... This isn't the hand I wished for...

(Description: Gendo is parted with Adam.)

Gendo: Why...Rei.

Rei: It's a different thing... The hand I remember is not yours.

Rei: I'm going already.

Gendo: Wait, don't go.

Rei: I can't. Ikari-kun is calling me.

Gendo: Rei (ﾟロﾟ; )!

Ayanami Rei: I'm home.

(Description: It seems like next issue, we'll be able to see stupid giant Rei. w)

_____________

Hmm. Rei apparently remembers Shinji, huh? Nice confirmation but maybe inserting a flashback to the hand scenes would have been good. (I think in the Manga they held/touched hands 5 times?) Rei thinking about Shinji's hand just because of Gendo's Adam-hand seems... I dunno, it could have been executed better, but it is pretty cool to see. Come on, Sadamoto, keep on taking a different approach with 3I and Instrumentality! >.< Don't let us down (or should that be "Letting me down", heheh) with the rest of the Stages!

Sadamoto oughta have some Morning Rescue. :rofl:

symbv · Postby **symbv** » Fri Nov 04, 2011 11:15 am

Seems to me that....(my memory of EoE is not perfect)
- Gendou does not lose his hand this time?
- Both Gendou and Rei said more things this time?
- Rei mentions Shinji this time (while not in the movie)?
To me they are improvements :) (not so sure about the undressing though)

KingXanaduu · Postby **KingXanaduu** » Fri Nov 04, 2011 12:05 pm

Hopefully these changes, as well as the others made by both Shinji and Asuka will all help to create a more positive ending for this version of Evangelion.

For the want of a nail people, for the want of a nail.

But... Gendou did lose his hand and Rei did mention Shinji in EoE... IIRC with nearly the exact same words as SSD's summary/translation. (maybe not coincidence?)

I want to see how Sadamoto deals with instrumentality.
