Sure he is a mana intensive jungler, but so are others. You don't pick Kha'zix jungle unless you are able to get blues most of the time, and with proper control, you won't need to rely on blue buff. Manamune is also a possible pick up item for Kha'zix, just get a 700g tear and upgrade it when its max stats.
Kha'zix is an assassin and will need to pull of ganks, he is a great farmer but also a great ganker, getting even better when he hits 6 and 11. Like most assassins, they will fall off if they don't get ahead, which means you will need to be aggressive. To play Kha'zix jungle, you need the correct mindset of being able to take blues, to take kills, to take farm, so you have the gold in order to buy the damage items required to carry your team.
Oh and there is a reason to play him Jungle. He is incredible fun to play, that more then enough reason to play him jungle.

The whole mana dependant thing is fine for now, I'm playing with my friend who is a katarina solo mid. Because she never needs mana I'm able to get every blue, and I often will counter jungle whenever possible.

I find that if you evolve his ultimate at level 6 (3 actives on his stealth) ganks are almost impossible to fail. Only times they've failed for me is against teemo (Combination of shrooms and his sprint) and when I was ganking a lulu (Can't do much when I'm turned into a cat).

I mainly play him because he's incredibly fun. Having 500 movement speed and being able to escape almost any gank is great, his mobility is insanely entertaining.
Also I usually don't evolve my Q (I've played about 20 games kha jungle now) because I've found it doesn't help as much as the others. My evolve order is: R > E > W
The reason being that 3 actives of my stealth makes early game ganking far too easy, wings are a must have for every kha'zix & the W over Q because I dislike relying on my basics/Q for the slow. I'm confident when it comes to skillshots, so the W is much better suited to me. I mean yeah the Q is good to evolve, but I find his R helps so much more when you hit 6 than the other abilities.
Shinigami Chop!
Why evolve his R when you could just evolve his E? It has much better ganking potential. I fail to understand your logic.
DONT EVOLVE HIS Q? This is just errrm just... Yeah no I fail to understand your logic.
An extra stealth on his ult is worthless, and what's the point of taking reduced damage while in stealth? They wouldn't be able to hit you anyways.
Your basically chopping off alot of damage for something worthless.
If you like ulting for initiating then evolve E, it's better for ganks, and you really only need 2 stealths anyways. If you like it for chasing, while, if You had evolved your q they would be dead and you wouldn't have to be chasing.

Amazing how two or three kills with kha zix can make a difference early game.

How did the game end so early? They surrendered or something?
