The Notenki Memoirs

By The Eva Monkey on Wednesday, December 22nd, 2004

There’s a very promising book being published next May called “The Notenki Memoirs: Studio Gainax And The Men Who Created Evangelion”. It looks to include quite a bit of inside info on the company and the Eva phenomenon, and a lot of what went on behind the scenes that has never been allowed into the public eye. And be aware, this book is being put out by ADV Manga, so amazingly enough, its going to be in English.

Here’s some info from Amazon.com.

Paperback: 200 pages
Publisher: ADV Manga (May 24, 2005)
