Evangelion's Asuka on learning Japanese





So I was thinking recently of posting from the main Neon Genesis Evangelion manga (the one that began as a promotion for the anime and, while covering basically the same story, ended up taking it in rather different directions). But in troubling times like these, I feel we could all use less angst (even well-written and drawn angst) and more lightheartedness. To that end: a one-page bonus chapter from the parody manga Tony Takezaki's Neon Genesis Evangelion (tr. Carl Gustav Horn, Dark Horse, 2015). Read right to left.






For those unfamiliar with the Evangelion franchise: Asuka has badly mangled the names she's written. They should be: Ryoji Kaji, Shinji Ikari, Rei Ayanami, Misato Katsuragi, Ritsuko Akagi. It's fitting I suppose that she came closest to accuracy with the name of her crush.

Is this parody manga where the panel of Asuka going "You think you can just SAY things to me?!" comes from?
