Neon Genesis Evangelion

新世紀エヴァンゲリオン

Shin Seiki Evangelion

Fifteen years ago a disaster called the Second Impact killed half of humanity. Shinji Ikari is now 14 and has not seen his father in years. Then his father calls him to the city of Tokyo-3. Gendo Ikari commands NERV, a secret agency that defends the city from giant beings called Angels. He wants Shinji to pilot Evangelion Unit-01, a huge humanoid weapon. Shinji has no training and no wish to fight. He climbs in anyway. Soon he is living with a NERV officer named Misato and trying to fit in at a new school. Neon Genesis Evangelion is a mecha story more interested in lonely and damaged people than in winning battles. It suits readers who like psychological science fiction and difficult characters.
