Stage 11: The Child Wandering

click here to see Misato let lose on Shinji

After Shinji is scolded for disobeying orders, he feels he can't pilot the Eva anymore and runs away. He runs into Kensuke which relieves some of his tension, but when he's then captured by Nerv Security to find out what his fate is.

The anime feels like it covers this part of the story more, but it does leave out some details that could give us a better understanding of all the characters. Everything artistic about this stage is good and the story is the best in the manga thus far.

Stage 12: Fumbling Towards Kindness

Shinji being surprised with his father's praise well sort of, and the feeling of being nobody again makes him wish that he wasn't leaving Tokyo 3. Add Misato's feeling of loneliness and the scenarion may change.

Again it doesn't feel like there isn't much to the story, but it does do a great job and again it is better than the anime. They should have payed more attention to what they cut out for the show (sorry for the last statement the anime came first) Of course with only 26 episodes there would be problems. Again the artwork is great, and the ending is pretty fullfilling. Heck finding out the secret of Pen Pen is worth owning this, and some great Toji and Kensuke should clinch this purchase.
