Book Review: Neon Genesis Evangelion: The Shinji Ikari Raising Project 9


Review:  #439
Title:  Neon Genesis Evangelion:  The Shinji Ikari Raising Project 9
Series:  Neon Genesis Evangelion:  The Shinji Ikari Raising Project - 9th volume
Author: Osamu Takahashi
Read Before:  no
My Comments:  The chapters in this volume feel more like relaxing fillers rather than the more intense ones in the previous volume.  We see Shinji and his father awkwardly falling too much such that it isn’t that funny anymore.  We see Asuka arguing and hitting Shinji all the time, and all the girls clamoring for Shinji.  What we need is a twist, one that isn’t expected to refresh the whole series because it is starting to become repetitive, objectiveless and bland.  There are still some funny sections but the lack of advancement in the overall arc isn’t helping matters at all.
Rating:  6/10
