I hadn't heard of it before, but it looks like there are at least three volumes of it so far. If you search for rahxephon manga at http://www.omochabox.com/s/home?seri...nga&prodtype=0 you should see it.

Apparently there were some fan scans done of this, but i don't know where to find them. It sounds like this is a manga that was done based on the anime (i.e. as opposed to the anime having been based on an existing manga).

From a review i wrote on the 9:th of November 2002

---

YES! I got my hands on the precious first chapter..

Ok.to be honest..I heard about a RahXephon manga being made a while ago but forgot about it.. BUT the other day when i was going through an...lets call it an archive I found RahXephon, first chapter.

I've read it now and I can only say. I want more..more NOW!

First i though that this would be something like a recap of the story. But If we are to compare Rah with NGE as a lot of people do it seems, I'll have to say that this RahXephon manga is pretty much like the later NGE Books in the sence that there are A LOT of differences but the basic story line is there like in the NGE mangas aswell but things are changed a lot here and there.

I'm gonne tell you a couple of things and I don't consider this spoiling:

0. The character design is somewhat different.

1. Reika is a helluvalot closer to Ayato....They've been living togheter at his house for 10 years. Ayato thinks of Reika as a sister at this time...

2. We get to see that Reika really is inlove with him. Hey they've even got a LLIiiiiiittlee tiiinnyy bit of fanservice there you know :b

*minispoiler follows:*

3. Haruka shows up and takes BOTH Ayato and Reika to the egg of Xephon

I want more of this and I can't wait for the English release of the first book...
