[EVA] Additional info

[MMKokusaiYK]

This month's Shonen Ace-A had a bunch of other Eva-related info that I will post here to keep a
thread from developing with the manga continuation title.

First, Vol. 7 of the Japanese manga (tankoubon) is scheduled for release at the beginning of
December.  In addition, the first printing will be a special limited edition box set available
by reservation only which includes the Vol. 7 manga book and an Asuka or Rei figure (Christmas
version = Santa suit).  These figures are original designs by Sadamoto who also personally
supervised the production work.  (Note: I will *not* accept requests to buy/send these, so
please do not ask.)

Next, there are also two new Sega arcade game prize figures of Rei and Asuka.  In commemoration
of the (almost over) summer season, these figures are in bikinis which are different from any of
the swimsuit figures that have appeared thus far.

As final tidbits:
- Apparently the Ayanami Ikusei (Raising Ayanami) software has over 30 different endings
depending on the choices you make during the course of the game.
- Sadamoto is still looking for an assistant (10 days/month) that can handle backgrounds (with
tone processing).
