If you thought Evangelion's characters have a tough time in the anime, wait until you see what happens when some of Japan's most unhinged manga artists get their ink-stained hands on them! Neon Genesis Evangelion: Comic Tribute is an officially authorized one-shot anthology of parody stories assaulting Evangelion from all directions. Inside, Mine Yoshizaki (Sgt. Frog) leads a band of manga pranksters including Hideki Ohwada (The Legend of Koizumi), Yun Kouga (Loveless), Nawoki Karasawa (Sake Jock, Super Cruel and Terrible Tales of Manga-ka), Yoko Sanri (B Gata H Kei: Yamada's First Time), ComiPo! mastermind Keiichi Tanaka, Rui Takato (Cynthia the Mission), Astroguy II (Queen's Blade Struggle), Kotaro Yamada (The Sacred Blacksmith), Sessyu Takemura (Domin-8 Me!), Jun Abe (Portus), and Tony Takezaki (Space Pinchy, A.D. Police). Also contains contributions from normal people, like Rikdo Koshi (Excel Saga). The most famous anime franchise of the last 20 years.

You saw his work in Neon Genesis Evangelion: Comic Tribute... depicting the truth about Rei with great sensitivity... Wait, that’s not the right word. What’s the opposite of “great sensitivity”? Well, whatever it is, Tony Takezaki’s got it, in this collection of all-new stories satirizing the Evangelion you saw on TV, as well as some scenes that apparently were never aired! SEE! Eva as a 1960s TV show! SEE! Kaworu and Shinji’s standup comedy career! SEE! Ritsuko’s days as Gendo’s student intern! SEE! Eva Units, flinging dookie! You’ll see all that and more, because this is Tony Takezaki’s Neon Genesis Evangelion! \[Dark Horse]

One-shot compilation based on Sakyo Komatsu's best-selling novel Japan Sinks (Nihon Chinbotsu) (1973): a story of Japan slowly sinking into the sea, represented strictly in a derisive mode.

(from... Well, Takezaki himself): Volume I: "What's Tony Takezaki's Mobile Suit Gundam Manga? It's well reputed, the first (!) gag parody of Gundam in history, serialized in the monthly magazine GUNDAM ACE." "Probably the world's most divine-punishment deserving manga rivaling the very popular MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM: THE ORIGIN by completely copying the style of the original work by Yasuhiko Yoshikazu, depicting Char, Sayla, Amuro, and Bright in Unthinkable and Unforgivable ways..." "Tony Takezaki's Gundam... Come to think of it, it has been three years since it was started as just a prankish parody... Now it has grown to be one of the draws of the magazine, always keeping 1st to 3rd place in the reader's popularity polls, leaving many other popular titles and mangaka behind... Also recently it has been commercialized by the hobby industry, so I can't help fancying it officially recognized by SUNRISE or animated..." "Anyway, Tony Takezaki's Mobile Suit Gundam Manga will finally be published in the form of a separate Tankobon volume! Tony Takezaki, the editor-in-chief, the editorial department, as well as KADOKAWA SHOTEN (!) are all very serious!! A controversial work?! It will surely become a requisite for talking about Gundam (I think)!!!" Volume II: "Tony Takezaki's Mobile Suit Gundam Manga II is published as a sequel of the last work Tony Takezaki's Mobile Suit Gundam Manga ('04). The mangaka assembled a lot of GUNPLAs for this work and succeeded in development of the manga using SFX photographs of the GUNPLAs. Many gorgeous full color chapters are also contained. Not only readers of Tony Takezaki's Gundam, but all GUNDAM fans will be satisfied." Volume III: "Sequel to the two previous well received Tony Takezaki's Mobile Suit Gundam Manga that will bring this series to its conclusion! All of Tony Takezaki's dedicated side splitting manga will be contained in this volume, with many color pages. We only wish that these pieces of fine work will be handed down to future generations like the movies of MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM as Tony Takezaki's Mobile Suit Gundam Manga TRILOGY!?" (wow brother... now from ebookjapan): The genius Tony Takezaki, using his "super" Yasuhiko touch, puts Char, Amuro, and Sayla through such a terrible mess! The greatest gag and parody manga in the history of Gundam has finally been published in a "forbidden" volume!

The legendary Gundam comics are finally being published! The works that were once published in Gundam Ace, but were no longer available when they sold out, are finally available in your hands! Keep your eyes peeled for these fiery, revenge-filled gags!!

Eva & Eva 2 anthology book is finally here! An entire Eva world written by a gorgeous writing team including Kannon Yoshizaki, Tony Takezaki, and Otsuichi!!

K' (K-Dash) is a four volume doujinshi compilation released by Kodansha containing oneshots by a number of different authors and artists. The first two issues contained short stories by published mangaka such as CLAMP and Ikumi Mia (amongst others). The first issue was released in December 2002 at Comiket 63, while the second was released in March 2003 to commemorate the opening of the K-Square store. These two issues contained short comedic stories from CLAMP; Tokyo Tower Kankeisha Kakui (characters from Chobits, Rayearth and Cardcaptor Sakura running into each other in the Tokyo Tower) and Murikuri Holic (Watanuki and Yuuko working at the K-Square store while characters from Murikuri look on) The third and fourth issues consisted primarily of work from doujinshi artists.

It is panic at the Kuron institute: a guinea-pig escaped. And not just any guinea-pig: it is Elaine, a fourteen year old girl, endowed with immense powers. Her father, Professor Reed, performed on her an operation, the goal of which was to give her command of a psychic force equivalent to that of a nuclear fission. Elaine has a twin sister, Diana, resulting from the same experimentation. Both developed incredible mental abilities, but Diana is a handicapped person, with a body entirely robotized, whereas Elaine is a wild child, with an animal's nervous system. Together, they are the key of a discovery which would disrupt the world.

The hero is Dr. Kishiwada, a brilliant but demented scientist, who creates bizarre mechas, battles the forces of evil, or just mucks about. There are many parodies of B-grade sci-fi movies and of TV. Crazy, slick, and very funny.

Reiko and her little brother find a weird creature that looks like a cat with wings, and they sneak it home with them. To their surprise, the creature explains that it's an alien salesman, here to trade advanced technology for something called “hahise”, which is abundant on Earth. Reiko and her brother are tempted by a device that can duplicate anything, even money. When they make that half-understood deal, the course of Reiko's life radically changes…

(from ebookjapan): In the year 2027, the Advanced Police, or "AD Police", was formed to combat the violent crimes that were occurring at increasing frequency in the megalopolis of Tokyo.
