Book Review: Neon Genesis Evangelion Volume 3


Review:  #669
Title:  Neon Genesis Evangelion Volume 3
Series:  Neon Genesis Evangelion - 3rd volume
Author:  Yoshiyuki Sadamoto
Read Before:  no
Comments:  Volume 3 doesn’t explain much in the nature of the Angels and Evas, however, it contains at least one complete story arc.  Rei as a character is investigated more as Shinji gets to know her better, and her odd mannerisms.  The real meat of the volume is when an Angel appears and begins drilling down to the HQ and with the time pressure; it is all up to Shinji to defeat it.  While Shinji still feels sorry for himself and whines from time to time, he starts to show his bravery making him more likeable.  Somehow, the volume manages to keep you glued and wanting to find out what happens next, having a good blend of tense moments and more lighthearted segments.
Rating:  6/10
