Thank you - this is definitely a clear explanation.
Apologies, I must ditch the habit of reading the forum while half-asleep.

Gah, on a work day? Fortunately, it's not so long. ^^
I was even about to call this a clear mistake until I just re-checked it to be sure, and yeah, the explanation is likely that they apparently took young Asuka's design from the Manga for Kami-chan, and now again here for Asuka herself. Still, having two different characters look essentially the same in your work doesn't really seem the best idea (even more so, since they already used the Anime design for young Asuka before in RT1). Even less helped by the fact that we later get a similar POV shot with Kami-chan (under fortunately more cheerful circumstances). And I guess you could toy with the idea that she may be another incarnation of Asuka - but kinda unlikely given
(On another note, I think Asuka was to tear this page out rather than the next? Unless I messed up my counting?)
like that!

"Weißt du..."
Hm, sounds a bit "stiff", but looking at the English variant, it seems somewhat intentional?
:lol (Hourglasses still a thing though? Seems all about spinning circles these days)
Just somewhat though...
??? If I get this ordered right, sounds like it's skipping quite a bit? Granted, the first pages would really just be a retreat of something that just happened with a few extra lines, but still unfortunate, since it bookends 0 quite nicely. But even more of a shame that apparently another nice Ghost!Asuka encounter got skipped entirely and there would have been only 2, at most 3 panels changed for that to work within All Ages. Admittedly do like the added/extended stuff afterwards though.
This one... is rather confusing. Sure, they pretty much had to replace the original page (which's despiction felt rather unnecessary there already). However, while they probably intended that to be young Asuka, within context of RT, she just looks like Kami-chan. If it's meant to be Kami-chan - well, that doesn't really make much sense, since Asuka doesn't even know her yet, let alone has any reason to imagine her in her own place.

that she addresses them as Mama and Papa and the end of After
Hey, don't talk about
"your" daughter
Aw, guess it's a sacrifice to the characters feels right now, but no comment on how the other Asuka sees her now? Even if it doesn't really amount to much, that was a bit of a surprise.

Hi everyone !
I'm not really keeping with the topic of the conversation, but I created this account because I really wanted to thank you, Strypgia for your story, I've wrote my own Eva fic partly because of you !
And since I'm basically here everyday reading what's been said, I thought I might as well have an account !

Yeah I thought that confusing as well, considering it would've been relatively easy to adapt those pages for the Non-H version. Though I suppose it was for pacing purposes.
In retrospect, it really is. Of course, oversights like that are generally ignored by the crew when they're getting fucked over
And of course, they wouldn't know of Kami-chan as of yet. Though I wonder if they'll notice any similarities between the two.
That was the intention, though yeah it can be a bit vague admittedly. Anything emboldened is a page flip, with the current page alongside. Makes all our lives easier.
Unless I forgot to account for a double page and left them all off by one like I did in my drafting
Dang, I should've added that
Maybe they didn't notice with all the trauma going on.
Thanks for continuing to proof this, I really appreciate it

I don't know about accounting for a double-page, but I think the page numbers do get messed up right at this scene.
Page 103 in my version is the page that shows the metaphor with child-Asuka being devoured by the MP Evas.
I'm assuming this is the page that Asuka tears out, leaving the next page 104.
Page 104 is the scene with Asuka beginning to enter Shinji's mind, intending to give him despair. The Chronicles reaction to this page is them questioning how Asuka even has that ability, so that appears to be correct.
Page 105 is empty of dialogue, and just shows Ghost Asuka following Shinji while he burns stuff. The reactions to this appear to match as well.
Page 106 is mainly Ghost Asuka watching Shinji, and beginning her commentary with "Concerning." The reactions to this appear to match up, too, with Zero Two expressing surprise that Ghost Asuka would be "concerned".
Page 107 is Ghost Asuka by herself, turning to look down at something in a field. Talking about how she saw Shinji's dream, a dream that could never come to be, a wish that could never be fulfilled.
Page 108 shows the actual scene of Shinji and Asuka sitting together happily, Asuka holding a baby. And yet, in Page 107 in the Chronicles reactions, they all appear to be reacting to THIS scene.
Did they just guess at what would be shown ?
Because the actual reaction to Page 108 seems like it could fit the page showing the child, and the reaction to page 109 seems to match up(commenting on how Ghost Asuka won't allow Shinji to dream, when the line "Don't you dare dream such useless dreams!" shows up on that page.)

You never exactly know how 2I can affect things like computers. Maybe they decided to stick with PowerPC instead of switching architectures again, due to ripple effects from 2I. Possibly they bought out IBM and Motorola somehow and started developing the PowerPC processor in house. Perhaps the iMac G3 was the most popular consumer computer of the 2010s in the United States.
There's so many different directions you could go with something like this
More or less, thought it is an educated guess based on the scenery and dialogue in 107.
I had a look through the version I'm reading (which has the page numbers as the file names), and it appears they match up. So maybe I was being a bit vague with how I was writing that.

Alright, let's see if I can get some writing done for the next one!
How about a preview?

It almost physically hurt for Asuka to let go of Shinji's hand and leave his room. It did physically hurt as her wounded foot made its protests known for her stomping it earlier trying to distract herself. She let the pain fill her mind anyway. It was better to focus on her throbbing foot than revert to worrying about Shinji.
It also kept her mind partly off freaking out over what Rei had told her last night. 'My best friend is part ancient space alien, her boyfriend is too, and he's wobbling between suicidal and suppressing an urge to end the world personally. This is in addition too us already knowing our own Commander and his bosses each have their own plan to end the world. And someone tried to kill us all yesterday. If this weirdness keeps accelerating, I think I'll be a magical girl by next week, and Shinji will have turned into a lemur or something.'
'And my foot hurts.'
The long hike down the corridors of the hospital and up two floors to Kaworu's room did not put her in a better mood. As embarrasing as it would be, exchanging the crutches for a wheelchair was starting to feel attractive, especially if Rei was willing to push her. Asuka felt a bit of relief when they finally halted outside an isolated room with an intimidating security keypad on the door.

Well, Rei's a magical already with the AT-Fields, so she could help you with that. As for Shinji, I think he'll embrace his new life as a lemur. A Shi-mur if you will.
Ah yes, Priorities!

I got (jokingly) accused of being a sockpuppet when I first joined, almost four years ago.
Didn't help that I said I deliberately held off joining and posting to trigger Stryp into another update. (Which I did.)

If Rei can perceive that inner dialogue in any way, just for shits and giggles at some point in the future she should hide a lemur onesie in Asuka's closet and a (surprisingly well-tailored) magical girl outfit in Shinji's.

Bonus points if the magical girl outfit actually grants the wearer "magic powers" of some description.If Rei can perceive that inner dialogue in any way, just for shits and giggles at some point in the future she should hide a lemur onesie in Asuka's closet and a (surprisingly well-tailored) magical girl outfit in Shinji's.

Rei (especially one liberated from her slumber) that could read the narration in the same vein comic!Deadpool reads the yellow boxes would be either a very scare, or a very hilarious character.If Rei can perceive that inner dialogue in any way, just for shits and giggles at some point in the future she should hide a lemur onesie in Asuka's closet and a (surprisingly well-tailored) magical girl outfit in Shinji's.
