* [[BigBrotherInstinct Big Sister Instinct]]: Rei had [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer a bad experience with school]], and she correctly anticipates that Aki's...unique tendencies will cause her to have a similar experience. In order to protect her from that, ''[[TheQuietOne Rei]]'' is willing to argue with her parents repeatedly about it. And when they still put Aki in school, Rei waits just outside the school building for most of the day, just in case.

[[caption-width-right:253:Somehow we doubt we'll have a problem with that.]]

Following the events of ''Fanfic/TheSecondTry'' the Ikari family is back together. However, this is not the world little Aki Ikari grew up in, this is not the world Asuka and Shinji Ikari have been living in for the past seven years, and there is still quite a bit of work that needs to be done -- for one thing, Mr. and Mrs. Ikari need to get remarried. So join Aki and her parents as they go through life, face the challenges of the world, and [[TastesLikeDiabetes look darn cute doing it]].

In other words, ''Aki-chan's Life'' is a primarily SliceOfLife FanWebcomic that acts as the sequel to the fanfic ''Fanfic/TheSecondTry''. The story is told in chapters, with each chapter being its own self-contain mini-arc, and the strips themselves are read right-to-left instead of the standard left-to-right. All similarities to {{Manga}} or {{Doujinshi}} are completely intentional.

The comic can be read [[http://jimmywolk.studenten-froendenberg.de/eng/aki.php here]], and is currently on hiatus.

!!This comic contains examples of the following tropes:
* AbsurdlyYouthfulMother: Asuka.
** Both Asuka and Shinji are 14. Their daughter Aki is 4. Time travel was involved.
** On a side note, Aki was born when her parents were about 16 (before the aforementioned time travel).
* {{Animesque}}: Art style and format wise the comic is just like a {{Doujinshi}}. In every other respect though it's clearly a Western webcomic.
* CoolOldGuy: Fuyutsuki.
* CutenessOverload: Just look at the page picture. Aki-chan is ''freaking adorable''.
* DoesNotLikeShoes: Aki. This was also true in ''Fanfic/TheSecondTry'' but it gets a lot more focus here, especially in Chapter 3.
* DeathGlare: Ritsuko finds herself reciving one simultaneously from [[http://jimmywolk.studenten-froendenberg.de/eng/aki.php?browse.2.29 both Asuka AND Shinji]] when she jokingly(?) suggests taking a blood sample from Aki for the DNA test.
* DidntSeeThatComing: Sums up about half of the reactions on [[http://jimmywolk.studenten-froendenberg.de/eng/aki.php?browse.1.21 this page]] after Shinji and Asuka introduce Aki to the rest of the cast.
* FishOutOfTemporalWater: Cute, loveable Aki usually draws worried looks when she talks about the post-Third-Impact world where she used to live. Such as when she drew some [[http://jimmywolk.studenten-froendenberg.de/eng/aki.php?browse.3.78 pictures]] in kindergarten.
* FunnyAnsweringMachine: Courtesy of [[http://jimmywolk.studenten-froendenberg.de/eng/aki.php?browse.3.69 Aki]].
* GenreSavvy: Touji figures out who Aki is within minutes of meeting her:
--> '''Touji''': I guess I shouldn't have been so surprised... I've seen so many weird things the last few months... So... congratulations.
* ImaginaryFriend: Subverted. WordOfGod says that the reason Aki isn't carrying around Kiko (her doll) all that much any more is because she is meeting lots of people besides her mom and dad.
* IntergenerationalFriendship: Aki and Rei.
* KidFromTheFuture: Aki technically counts, although both parents were aware of her existence before she went back in time.
* LemonyNarrator: Caption boxes will often exposit on the characters' expressions, and in parts of chapter 1 they just flat out gave the author's commentary on the proceedings.
* MamaBear: Asuka does ''not'' take it well when she can't find Aki.
* MythologyGag: When Maya offers to get Aki some tea at a vending machine she responds with "But I'm a girl...!"
** Also, when Aki first sees the Geofront, she says, "Wow! A real-" "-ly big cave!"
** Later, when Aki falls out of a tree, she lands gracefully on her feet, in a manner extremely similar to Rei falling out of the vent in NERV.
* OhCrap: The older Ikaris finding out that Kodoma works at the kindergarten where they're enrolling Aki.
* PeggySue: While the comic itself doesn't directly have this, the effects of ''Fanfic/TheSecondTry'' being an example are discussed though. For one thing, Ritsuko doesn't believe that Aki is Shinji and Asuka's daughter till she does a DNA test.
* ShoutOut: [[DragonBallZ Super-Saiyan Asuka]] does not like the thought of Aki being a test subject.
** Also, Aki [[http://jimmywolk.studenten-froendenberg.de/eng/aki.php?browse.3.95 pulls a Luffy]].
* SpinOffspring: [[CaptainObvious Guess]].
* SpitTake: Kodoma does one when she learns [[spoiler: that Aki has run off]].
* TitleDrop: The only instance where JapaneseHonorifics are used are two instances where people are addressing "Aki-chan."
