Neon Genesis Evangelion, Volume 1

In 2015, the "Angels" have returned, and Shinji Ikari, a fourteen year-old child of the new Earth, is forced by his father Gendo--commander of the secret organization NERV--to pilot the monstrous biomechanical weapon called "Evangelion" to match the Angels' fearsome power...Eva Vol. 1 contains a Japanese sound FX glossary plus a commentary by series mecha designer Ikuto Yamashita and the famous "confession letter" written by director Hideaki Anno in the months before the original TV premiere of Evangelion.
