Brokeback Geofront
I downloaded the Eva manga volume 10 in raw from a torrent tonight. Because I like the manga characterization better than anime's, and I was curious. I had read some summaries of the two first chapters, so a lot of surprises waited for me.
IT WAS SO GAY.
No, really! I didn't ship Kaworu/Shinji back in the days. I did think it was cute, but I prefered Asuka/Shinji. However...
I don't know. I like them in the manga as a pairing. In part, because it's sooo not fluffy sap like in the anime, and because I prefer this Kaworu better than the like-Jesus one from the anime.
But dude, this volume? Sadamoto pushed the fanservice to a level, I had to check during and after it to make sure I wasn't reading some pre-yaoi doujinshi. How can this happen in canon of a shounen mecha manga, again?
I MEAN IT! ON THE LIPS! ON THE BED, WITH SHINJI HALF ASLEEP!
So... I'm uploading it for your, um, pleasure.
http://www.hiiragizawa.net/stuff/nge066.zip <- in which Kaworu makes a crude comment, Shinji gets angry, pins the Fifth Children to a wall, and then proceeds to... hug him. Kaworu goes "what's the matter with you?! O_o"
http://www.hiiragizawa.net/stuff/nge067.zip <- in which Shinji sulks over Rei, Kaworu learns from soup operas, and tries to comfort the Third Children in the middle of the night. Shinji goes "what's the bleeding motherfucking matter with you?!?! O_____O" and then he's saved by the phone.
Now this is fanservice. And Sadamoto is making me ship it because it's so hot. Curses!
