A fun and enjoyable read explaining many elements of Japanese culture from A to Z. Lots of interesting popular concepts explained from folklore, pop culture and the arts of Japan. I think it is a book that would encourage further studies.
Being a collector of Fountain pens the section on Maki-e and Urushi interested me as an owner of Japanese pens made from those crafts.
The book is beautifully illustrated.
I finally got around to reading this third and final installment of this series. A lot going on here with our Editor having a family issue and a subsequent monster attack. It was a fun volume to read and it wrapped up nicely, but I wish there was more. Feels like there would be more to come from this series. And it being several years old now I guess that really was that.
A fun, light and enjoyable series. A little bit of implied nudity but hardly anything really. You see more on pulpy book covers.
I enjoyed this one, I felt there is more depth in this volume. More depth in terms of storylines and characters. It is a fun series but sadly the next volume is the last. Which given it was published several years ago I guess there is no more to come.
A nice bit of humour and fun plot. Very quick and easy read. A bonus it is free on KU (the first 2 volumes are anyway). Curious to read more of this and see where it goes. The cover is suggestive but the book is more to it than that. Similar to Monster Musume which is another series I am enjoying and 10 Volumes deep.
