==Kaji in Other Manga==
Unlike the anime, which is silent about Kaji's past before he met Misato, Sadamoto's Manga has a Kaji backstory chapter, in which we learn that he was in a post [[Second Impact]] gang of looters, and when captured he betrayed his friends to their deaths. 
 
In the Manga version of Kaji's death scene, he is portrayed as being already wounded, and instead of saying, "Hi, you're late!", he says "Try to aim better this time". Kaji's assailant in the manga wears white gloves, implying that Gendo might be the culprit. In the anime this scene ends with the fatal gunshot, but in the manga it continues to show Kaji's long dead gang coming for him.  While we won't know for sure this is the case until the final manga stages are published, he is almost certainly seeing them the same way other characters see Yui, Misato, or Ritsuko during Third Impact.  That is, this is probably Sadamoto's way of preparing us for Kaji's participation in Instrumentality.
 
The manga includes a chapter in which Kaji tells Shinji that Gendo is being backed by an ancient organization called Seele, and that Gendo and Seele both have agendas beyond defeating the Angels.
 
==Manga Notes==
*In [[Yoshiyuki Sadamoto|Sadamoto]]'s [[Neon Genesis Evangelion (manga)|Manga]], Kaji is depicted driving a [[Kaji's Car|Lotus Elan 1600 S1]]
