These first 3 volumes introduce you to Shinji Ikari, a 14 year old boy with a complicated relationship to his father, asked to put his life on the line to pilot Evangelion Unit 001 for his father's potentially humanity-saving program NERV. Offering gorgeous illustrations, color drawings, and informative interviews with voice actors and creators this edition is an excellent companion to both the show and rebuild movies and a hopeful and emotional standalone manga series if you haven't seen them yet!

Description
The classic series, now available in a deluxe omnibus edition!
The manga adaptation of the landmark animated series that changed the mecha genre. Each volume contains three of the original graphic novels and includes pages of stunning, full-color art.
Once Shinji didn’t care about anything; then he found people to fight for—only to learn that he couldn’t protect them or keep those he let into his heart from going away. As mankind tilts on the brink of the apocalyptic Third Impact, human feelings are fault lines leading to destruction and just maybe, redemption and rebirth.
