When most people think of anime, they think of large-eyed adolescents fighting fearsome monsters (kaijū). On the surface, Neon Genesis Evangelion is just the same, filled with destructive explosions and gigantic EVA missiles that can only be piloted by super-hot teens. But as every otaku knows, anime as a stylized artform has much more to offer, often pushing the artistic, emotional, and intellectual boundaries of its audiences with its storylines. Neon Genesis Evangelion is one such anime: beyond the fearsome monsters and Evangelions, Neon Genesis explores the depths of the psyches of the adolescents when they become the very weapons needed to destroy the onslaught of Angels. The emotional complexities of the show make Neon Genesis Evangelion an emotional and intellectually challenging anime to watch. Fortunately, many of us do not undergo as extreme of experiences facing Shinji, Rei, and Asuka. But many of us do face tragedies that prompt us to ask questions about our own existence, how to live, and how to relate to others. Neon Genesis Evangelion and Philosophy encourages readers to take a moment to explore the wide range of philosophical topics found within the anime to challenge and encourage you to reflect on who you are and how to live with others.
A light novel series exploring an alternate ending to one of the most influential anime series of all time! What if reluctant hero Ikari Shinji had saved the world? Now, at seventeen years old, he is the defacto leader of the EVA team. Under the leadership of Commander Katsuragi Misato, the Evangelion suits have been updated with advanced designs and powers, in preparation for the possible return of the monstrous Angels. Four copies of Ayanami Rei have been tasked with operating a global anti-Angel search-and-destroy program. But when one of these clones goes rogue, it’s up to Shinji to stop her.
First rule of finding yourself in a hole: stop digging! Too bad Shinji can't seem to take that advice--not as long as he's in debt to the Kaji Detective Agency, while doing all the work of its lazy proprietors. And Shinji's situation just keeps getting worse, as he discovers a rivalry he didn't know he had, not to mention a past he had thought was gone years ago.
ONE FINAL DREAM Sacrificing himself to shield Earth from the devastation of the Third Impact, Shinji's mind floats untethered from his body. He lingers in a space where time stands still, trapped in the moment of the impact. As Armaros swallows Heurtebise and defeat seems near, Asuka tries to use the memories of their classroom days together to wake Shinji from his new, shattered reality. The final volume!
