Supplemental bad!), which is kind of disappointing to see in someone so young...

And not looking good? I think things are looking up, actually. EoE is in full swing in the EVA manga, we finally learn just why Gendou is such a bastard in Daitenroku, and it looks like we'll get a glimpse of what makes Mari tick in Rebuild 3.0. The layers are getting peeled bit by bit.

Now if we could only get confirmation on the length of the next two movies...
Did I not say I liked the RE-TAKE doujin for instance? I thought it was a nice story.

However, I have high expectations of Anno... Hence REBUILD is going to get the utter most scrutiny in my eyes. If it's his series, I don't expect him to change his own characters THAT much.
