I've seen people mention it in a few places and was wondering what it was.

When Anno invited staff to submit their ideas for the NGE movie, way back in the day, Ikuto Yamashita came up with a batshit insane scenario (part of which is published in Sore o nasumono) involving an Eva-like thing called FORTUNE, a device called Spine of the Death God, and people degenerating into ... "werewolves". No, seriously. To make matters even more ... interesting, the montage illustration Yamashita prepared for his scenario shows Asuka as a "werewolf"! (Though, to be honest, she looks more like a Thundercat...)

Might be able to find images of it if you search scans of the above linked publication.

Mmm yeah, that looks more tame than I imagined. Also Rei with the shitty trigger discipline.

Rei looks here like Yuzuriha Nekoi on a bad hair day. Just compare those CLAMP eyes. I've never expected to see them in any official NGE art...

Bump because it's the only relevant thread I can find.

Anyone know the original publication history behind Sore o Nasumono?

The book everyone seems to have is the one published by Kadokawa.

While out on the internet I came across this:


Image

That's Yamashita's artwork on the cover and it's titles Sore o Nasumono.

But at the same time it seems like a doujin, credits to circle "BULE AND PURPRE" (I'm assuming it's supposed to be BLUE AND PURPLE) and [s]supposedly has an 18+ rating.[/s] (I think I was mistaken about this 非18禁 = non-18-restricted?)
On top of that the artwork used for the cover is credited to something Super Robot Wars related done for Media Works by the Die Sterne index.

Anyone know what the hell this is?


EDIT:
After a bit of googling around it seems like this was the original doujin release of Yamashita's material in 1995 and at 86 pages total.
Kodakawa apparently liked it and padded it to 143 pages for official release in 1998.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

I would really, really like to see a CLAMP take on Evangelion.

On topic...Umm...Asuka needs wolf ears?

I can't believe Rei is holding the gun sideways like a West Coast Gangster. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'm imagining Rei saying in her monotone, deadpan tones, "I'm gonna bust a cap in your ass, you mother fucker."

God, how I wish this was real.

And she has her middle finger on the trigger. :uhh:

That image actually reminds me of this Appleseed illustration:

So, they made Unit 02 turn into the werewolf at the end of Ha instead of Asuka. I see.
