Neon Genesis Evangelion: The Shinji Ikari Detective Diary

In this quirky 2013–2014 Dark Horse two-issue miniseries, writer Carl Gustav Horn and artist Takumi Yoshimura shift the focus from apocalyptic mecha battles to a lighthearted, slice-of-life mystery. Shinji Ikari trades his Eva pilot duties for amateur detective work, teaming up with Kaworu Nagisa and Ryoji Kaji to solve oddball cases around Tokyo-3. A playful departure from the series' usual psychological intensity, it offers fans a charming, character-driven lark that showcases the cast in an unexpected genre.
