Neon Genesis Evangelion 3-in-1 Edition: 5 Volumes and ISBN-13s
Published 29 October 2026 · Source dates are listed with each edition
Neon Genesis Evangelion 3-in-1 Edition has 5 volumes in English from VIZ Media. Four are 3-in-1 books and the last is a 2-in-1. See each ISBN-13, release date and page count, and what VIZ says is inside.
Volume count: VIZ's list shows Vol. 1 through Vol. 5, and its description of Vol. 5 (titled 2-in-1 Edition) calls it the finale. VIZ, Neon Genesis Evangelion 2-in-1 Edition, Vol. 5, checked 2026-10-29.
Mapped coverage: The five English 3-in-1 Edition paperbacks, numbered 1–5 by VIZ (Vol. 5 is titled 2-in-1). VIZ's product pages do not say which single volumes each book collects, so this map does not translate to VIZ's separate Vol. 1–14 singles.

VIZ’s Neon Genesis Evangelion 3-in-1 Edition is five paperbacks: Vol. 1 to Vol. 4 are titled 3-in-1 and Vol. 5 is titled 2-in-1. VIZ dates them from November 13, 2012 (Vol. 1) to June 14, 2016 (Vol. 5). Each has its own ISBN-13 in the table above.
What VIZ says is inside
VIZ Shop’s description of Vol. 1 says “Each volume contains three of the original graphic novels and includes pages of stunning, full-color art” (VIZ Shop). Vol. 5’s title says 2-in-1 instead. VIZ’s product pages for the five books, reachable from VIZ’s 3-in-1 list, do not say which single volumes any book collects.
VIZ’s list of single volumes runs from Vol. 1 to Vol. 14. Four 3-in-1 books and one 2-in-1 book add up to fourteen, which fits that list, but the pages never say which singles sit in which book, so this map draws no lines between them. Each row covers one unit, its own number, and the calculator answers only which of the five books you lack.
Release dates and page counts
| Book | Title says | Release date (VIZ) | Pages (VIZ) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vol. 1 | 3-in-1 | November 13, 2012 | 524 |
| Vol. 2 | 3-in-1 | March 12, 2013 | 576 |
| Vol. 3 | 3-in-1 | May 14, 2013 | 568 |
| Vol. 4 | 3-in-1 | August 13, 2013 | 576 |
| Vol. 5 | 2-in-1 | June 14, 2016 | 384 |
VIZ’s description of Vol. 5 calls it the finale, so Vol. 1 to Vol. 5 is the whole edition as VIZ lists it. Whether these books repeat single volumes you already own is the question VIZ’s pages leave open.
Before you buy
Two editions share the Neon Genesis Evangelion name on VIZ’s site, the single volumes and these collected books, and a listing that says only “Vol. 3” could be either. The ISBN-13 settles it: use the table, and see the ISBN edition check. If you own Vol. 1–4 of this edition, the one book left is Vol. 5; the box-set duplicate check covers mixed shelves of singles and collected books.
