Book Reviews of The Anime Encyclopedia: A Guide to Japanese Animation Since 1917, Revised and Expanded Edition
Book Review: An outstanding work or reference that's hugely readable.
Summary: 5 Stars
As a keen anime fan, I have long searched for an easy to use and fun reference for information on the great variety of animations that Japan has produced. This book covers that requirement and then some.While they were unable to cover every single anime title that had ever been, mainly due to the limitations of the printed word, the range of this book is a treat for anyone.
There are over 10 years of work behind this book, and Clements and McCarthy are to be congratulated for creating such a first rate work.
Beware of one thing though, once you start reading it you may never stop until you have read it from cover to cover. If you have the slightest interest in anime get this book, it is an excellend guidebook to one of the best art forms around today.
I can only hope that more works of this standard will come.
