Publisher's Note More than a guide to the hot phenomenon of Japanese animation, this book offers an encyclopedia treatise on the culture that produces it. More than 500 glossary-style entries explore the author's rants on "fandom, food, anime babes, large eyes, and sex and bloody noses". 30 photos. 45 line drawings.
The Anime Companion is a guide to Japanese cultural details that frequently appear in Japanese animation and that fascinate non-Japanese fans. Over 500 entries describe the often strange yet significant details that define anime's rich visual style.
