The April issue of Kadokawa's Young Ace magazine announced on Tuesday that writer Yūshi Kawata and artist Yukito
will publish a Neon Genesis Evangelion manga spinoff in the May issue on April 4.

The tagline
reads "The stage is 'Eva' x 'game department'!? Look out for this unique combination"

I genuinely love how good Evangelion hurts

ANN article: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2014-03-03/evangelion-spinoff-manga-planned-for-april

I'm slightly curious, but I hope it's not another manga like GoS2 or Shinji Raising. Please, something a little different (serious style) like Campus Apocalypse was. The "game department" tagline makes me think it'll be silly...not that that's a bad thing, but it's starting to be overdone, IMO.

I was thinking something along the lines of "Shinji in Tokyo" that picks up after the end of the original manga.

I've yet to read any of the manga's but I'll never complain about more. Just another Eva series for me to put on my backlog for a rainy day/when the drought comes.

If the image in the cover is from the manga proper and not a random image to promote Eva, then the fact Rei is here and that both wear the Tokyo-3 High-school uniform exclude any post-Sadamanga or Rebuild time skip spin-off.

I want a time skip spin-off! ;_;

Someone will eventually make that, I know it!

OT: I don't care what this spin-off is about, I'm fine even if it's another SI Raising project. :hahaha:

Manga, OAV, another film or better, a series, I don't care about the format, I want to know what happened during that period!

Yeah, I wasn't expecting anything serious anyway.
Although, after the bleakness of 3.0, some lightearted and moronic fanservicy comedy will do us some good! :lol:

You don't have to read this, it's just minor complaint... minuscule really.

For the love of everything Good and Sacred, make Asuka a redhead again (well technically a orange head) :explode: I'm tired of brunette and blonde, red darn it, red.

Given the author's previous one-shot this was entirely expected.

It is also welcome
