Grammar


A new teacher called Kaoru Miyazaki starts to work in Shinji, Asuka and Rei’s school. His lessons and advice motivate the Children to look at things differently and consider other possibilities, and help them to mature and be slightly readier to face their future trials. At the same time, someone is influencing Gendo’s scenario in little ways, making subtle changes. And Gendo is determined to find out who is and put a stop to that person’s interference.
