I found this book on an otaku shop for like 50$ and decided to go on Amazon for it and I found it. This is a great book, full of 150 popular artists in Japan that also future animation art to. Its a thick book with card shock feeling pages (so it has a sturdy feel to it and make it less easier to tear). The color and artwork is beautiful in this book and each artist gets one page to show there most famous art and or popular (there is a page on both side on the book, its kind of hard to describe tho). Each artist page has a little info about them self, like there email, website, back story, etc. Along with the description of the artwork they have provided in the book. There is also in the back a more detail description about the artistes and the making of the book. The only complain I have is that the writing is in Japanese, well I cant read or understand, but I think it makes the book more authentic and fun to read (so its not real a complain, but I am learning the language soon so I will be able to read it and give a more detail description). All in all this is a great book if your into the Japanese animation and art world. I would recommend it to anyone because it just fun to see all the artiest similarities and differences in art. So if your contemplating on buying it or don’t want it used, I bought mine used from a seller that had the described like new and it was Like new and had very good shipping experience so I would recommend that seller.Well anyways I do hope you like my feedback, sorry I cant be more descript due to the language barrier, but I will be able to break that barrier and tell you more about this great book.
