Joe O'Connell: Ultimate Anime, Gebunden

Klappentext

Anime is a vast and vibrant universe. From soot sprites to super robots, Dragon Balls to the Dragon Slayer, it's drenched in Japanese culture and overflowing with must-see megahits. For newcomers, it can be overwhelming. This book is here to help.

Trust this expertly curated guide to reveal the depth, scope, and brilliance of Japan's greatest export. Across over one hundred titles and a thousand stills, you'll chart the course of the medium's most influential directors, unpacking the key genres and recurring tropes that shape anime's storytelling.

From the arthouse tragedy of Belladonna of Sadness to the suave swagger of Cowboy Bebop and the genre-busting touchstone that is Haruhi Suzumiya, there are worlds beyond worlds begging to be explored--all unexpectedly connected through shared ideas, visual language, and wildly creative cross-pollination. As you recognize the patterns and references, each title will lead to your next favorite--and a deeper love for the artform. You'll be an "otaku" before you know it.
