Forum thanks
I wanted to take the opportunity to thank everyone for their support, feedback, and comments concerning the launching of the Eva Monkey Forums. The launch truly did exceed my expectations. And I encourage any reader of the site to join up, because the forums provides me with an idea of what kind of readership is coming through the site. And the more active the forums are, the more compelled I am to provide you all with more stuff.
New Resources
This week I’ve been given permission by MDWigs to archive his collection of writings.
I went out and picked up the first three re-editions of the Evangelion manga. They’re nice, but certainly not worth replacing your old versions, unless you’re a hardcore Eva collector. I’ve also made the content found in these volumes available, including commentary by Yoshiyuki Sadamoto, Megumi Hayashibara, Megumi Ogata, and Yoshitou Asari. Also included in these volumes were notes from Carl Horn, including an alternate soundtrack to the Evangelion series and The End of Evangelion.
Anime Nation Affiliation
And as you can guess, I put a bit of money into this site, and I am in fact a starving college student. So I took the initiative to begin an affiliation with Anime Nation. I’m hoping through this, I’ll be able to run this site without footing over $100 a year. Yep, that’s what it costs. Not to mention that I’m frequently buying stuff like the afforementioned manga volumes to provide readers with resources. And if you by chance intend to buy the platinum edition dvds, please buy them through this site, as you’ll be getting a good deal, and will be helping me from going broke.
