Beschreibung

"Impressive, exhaustive, labyrinthine, and obsessive-The Anime Encyclopedia is an astonishing piece of work." -Neil Gaiman

Over one thousand new entries . . . over four thousand updates . . . over one million words. . .

This 3rd edition of The Anime Encyclopedia brings the landmark reference work up to date with six additional years of information on Japanese animation, its practitioners and products, as well as incisive thematic entries on anime history and culture.

More than just generic listings, these reviews have snark, intelligence, and a discerning point of view. Data-obsessed fans will relish the extensive credits, online links, and cross-references, and parents and librarians will appreciate the content advisories.
