| Abstract |
|
This long-awaited “companion” volume to The Anime Companion boasts over 500 all-new glossary-style entries to help you decipher anime’s distinctive content, images, and cultural motifs. Ranging from Aikido to Zero fighters (with Japanese Mountain Vegetables in between), Gilles Poitras covers the minutiae of anime in fascinating detail, including illustrations, anime images, film citations, and numerous references to the related art of manga. More than a guide, Anime Companion 2 is a pop survey of Japanese art, kitsch, history, food, and daily life. Now with entries in kanji (Japanese writing) and English, the Anime Companion remains the best friend an otaku (anime fan) ever had, and a fun way for the non-otaku to learn about Japan.
