Pretty Goddamn awesome. A few of the stories in it were a little dodgy, but overall it was a fantastic read. As far as art, with so many mangakas, there's something for everyone.

Above all, it never failed to be funny. It's definitely worth the read for any Evangelion fans trying to pass the time before the next Rebuild movie.

This is a collection of NGE one shots from a number of mangaka. As one would expect from a collection of one shots, things vary tremendously from one shot to one shot. The only thing that almost all of them have in common is that they’re trying to be comedic, though there’s one that’s even an exception to that. To be honest I felt that there were far too many similar stories that relied on pretty much the exact same humor so the comedy got a bit stale, though I suppose that’s to be expected from the fact that it’s by multiple authors without any ... coordination between them. There were definitely some very unique and great stories, with my favorite being Shinji and Asuka’s Hot Day, but there were also some pretty awful ones. The same applies in terms of art, wherein there were chapters with fantastic art and chapters with terrible art. So all in all a mixed bag with major ups and downs that I suppose is worth going through for the highlights. I will note though that it doesn’t just parody main NGE, but a couple chapters also reference The Shinji Ikari Raising Project so you’ll need to be at least somewhat familiar with it in order for the jokes to land.
