If you didn't follow it through the years, it's going to feel like a shitty adaptation.

Oh
I was under the impression that the Mango at some point went in a completely different direction than the series, at least I have a vague memory of someone saying that

>>140031693
It's bad.
Well I read it and thought it wasn't worth it.
It's watered down eva.

>>140031693
It's better in some aspects and worse in others

>>140031974
Nah, it's actually better, characters act more reasonably, more mature story; it's not apeshit, it does not have to be, it's like a response to EoE

Although to be fully enjoyed it needs the anime knowledge, someone who consumed every animated media of NGE willl find this to be their favourite; I know it is for me

>>140031693
It's a good read.

>>140031828
It somewhat did, but not tremendously and in the end it just feels like a much more bland version of the anime. Nothing can replace Anno's visual direction let's be honest.

>>140031693
It's like rebuild in that it's its own part of a continuous cycle with changes.

>>140031693
I actually read the manga first before watching the anime and movie. The manga is pretty good.

>>140032999
>characters act more reasonably
That's why it's watered down. Sure it's easier to digest.
>someone who consumed every animated media of NGE willl find this to be their favourite
Wrong.

>>140032999
Okay, upside-down satan.

If you read it through the years, sure.
