Neon Genesis Evangelion Chapter 77 Discussion

Oh wow, cool. A big twist, and I like it.

----------------------------------------

                        So apparently it will take the same route as End of Evangelion.

Somehow...

Very surprising that it's his father who saved him.

I get the feeling this will be very different than End of Evangelion. Gendo has been a character that has never been directly addressed in the anime and I feel that the manga will provide more insight into the character.



Even though it is crazy that the military is conducting this operation, I can say that an operation of this scale and complexity would take months to train for and execute.

yay gendo ftw

Pretty much going exactly as the anime and then, Bam!, Gendo is the one to save Shinji. Surprising to say the least.

Wow, really short chapter. Aot totally ripped off this concept

Not quite. Misato saved Shinji in the movie, and this time it was Gendo, which I think is an interesting difference. I'm sure they're will be more differences to come as well.

Omaigah! They made Gendo save him? Omaigah!

Sadamoto has already come up with one of his surprises. This time its not Misato, but Gendo saving Shinji.

Interesting.

The manga/anime has never really showed much about Nerv, i.e. how big of a place it is. It would have been better if the people other than the usual suspects were shown a bit earlier. That would have made the deaths more impactful.
