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.
