About Site

Probably from the first time I found out about Evangelion, over ten years ago, Nagisa Kaworu fascinated me. I admit most of it was due to his interest in Ikari Shinji, the protagonist, and I was (and still am) a yaoi fangirl. I remember being a bit disappointed with his manga version by Sadamoto Yoshiyuki because it wasn't as "romantic" as the anime version. After rereading it a few times, his selfish and not quite romantic interest in Shinji grew on me, and I loved him. He really got deeper and much less one dimensional like he was in the anime.

As much as I hold the original anime version of Kaworu dear to my heart, I feel like it's so iconic there's not much I can add to it. The manga version by Sadamoto is significantly different and some of the changes offer a new perspective on his character along with all the different versions. I think the manga version of him is probably the most "human" of all the different versions, and I wanted to explore what that really meant, hence this site was born.
