Wow, those postcards are beautiful. I'm definitely going to try and grab one of the premium editions when in Japan in a couple weeks time. Not sure how limited they are, so hopefully there will still be some left lying around somewhere.

That Misato one is, umm, really sexy though...

I don't know either, if anyone is interested in it they're still available from Amazon and cdjapan, AmiAmi doesn't have it any more though. Personally I just ordered it from cdjapan since I'm a cheap bastard and Amazon doesn't offer SAL shipping for this manga.

The CDJapan listing is really quite cheap. Might just order from there for piece of mind.

Thanks Shin-chan!

Note the 17th Angel versions are both higher resolution and apparently taken directly from the original postcards -- you can see texturing and such in the scans. The others look like they're scans of copies. Still nice to have, but I found the distinction noticeable.

Also, I wonder why there are two for Asuka? I'd expect that for Rei given her popularity in Japan.

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

Could it be that her popularity is rising?

Maybe they've been filtered by the guy that scanned them, I'm not sure about it though.

It's always been high, if I have to base my opinion on the number of fanarts, Rei is preferred by "casual" fans, I saw a lot of fanarts around the release of 2.0, while Asuka is preferred by "hardcore" fans, it's only a generalisation obviously...

The second Asuka pic is technically a group pic...


But yeah, there ARE extreme quality works, especially the naked Asuka one. It says a lot.

Just curious, what are the contents of the mini artbook? I'm a little confused about that.

From the pictures of the blog that I linked before they seem to be simply textless versions of the illustrations at the beginning of the chapters, it would be a nice surprise to see some original illustrations but I kinda doubt it.

Here's the index. Nothing original in there sadly.

I guess they really got the hang of 3Difying Eva images from that 3D Eva 2.0 trailer they did for the Nerv cell phone. I just hope they decide to do it for the whole four movies. I'd pay for that.
In and of itself, self-evident.

So was this the last volume- or is there another on the way?

Also, does it actually end and is it better than End of Eva? I plan to get the series but am waiting until they are all out.

Nah, this one is the penultimate volume I believe. Still one more to come.

Scarless Misato for the fail.

Does Sadamoto have some post-HIP surprises ahead? If not, there's not much besides endless mindtrips to fill a final volume with.

What if the final volume is a choose your own adventure type thing?

But instead you choose Shinji's waifu.

It would look prettier than the Shinji Ikari Raising Project game but, alas, serve the same menial purpose in the end.
