Neon Genesis Evangelion, Tom 9

The series is known for its thought-provoking themes alongside intense scenes. I'm curious how the pacing was planned to keep both elements engaging.

The exploration of identity and consciousness felt deep but also a lot to process. How did others relate to these themes while reading?

The art has such a distinctive feel—I'm wondering if it was influenced by specific manga traditions or if it evolved uniquely for Evangelion.
