10/10 - the throughline of cicada sounds throughout was probably one of my favorite details, especially that it ended up being somewhat significant plot wise.
Only a few episodes into the anime, so I’m interested to see how it compares.

I think I like the manga more than the anime.
That’s been my conclusion so far too
I wish Gundam: The Origin was adapted in a way that fleshed out its characters like NGE’s manga lol
How come? I’ve watched the anime but haven’t read the manga.
There’s some minor differences that just work better IMO. The publication history of it is kinda interesting - it started alongside the anime, but didn’t finish until the early 2010s. It’s not a terribly long read - worth a shot if you enjoyed the show enough.
I just like the reading more - plus I think it better contextualizes some of the uhhhhhhh sexuality? (Or makes it easier to read it as being in the mind of a fucked up teenager? Idk having a hard time describing lol) I’m a context-aholic though so maybe I just like flipping back pages rather than episodes haha. Or the pacing of reading makes it feel more like a novel and less like a serial monster fighting show. Who knows- enjoy both though
