Neon Genesis Evangelion is a Japanese mecha-drama manga series by Yoshiyuki Sadamoto, based on the landmark anime by Studio Gainax. The story is set in the futuristic city of Tokyo-3, fifteen years after a global cataclysm known as the Second Impact. Shinji Ikari, a reluctant and emotionally estranged teenager, is summoned by his father to pilot a massive biomechanical weapon called an Evangelion. Alongside other young pilots like the enigmatic Rei Ayanami and the fiery Asuka Langley Soryu, Shinji must defend humanity against monstrous beings known as Angels while grappling with deep-seated trauma and the weight of existence.
The series is renowned for its psychological depth, religious symbolism, and its deconstruction of the giant robot genre. While it follows the general path of the anime, the manga is celebrated for Sadamoto's distinct character interpretations, streamlined narrative, and an alternate ending that provides a unique perspective on the series' core themes of connection and isolation.
It serves as the definitive printed companion to the franchise, with Sadamoto—the original character designer for the anime—spending nearly two decades crafting this version to offer a more personal, character-driven take on the legendary saga.
