About this product

Product Information

If you're into anime (and manga ), there's no place like Neo Tokyo. Here otaku dress-up cos-play style for real, 100,000+ fans attend cons to buy and trade, and anime soundtracks are performed in concert halls. Neo Tokyo is where anime has become both urban fashion and cultural zeitgeist, and this is its first street-smart guide in English. Featuring interviews with tastemakers, it covers studios, toys, museums, games, film locations, music, plus where to hang and how to cruise. Four-color, with maps and index. Patrick Macias, a specialist in Asian film and Japanese pop culture, is the author of TokyoScope. Tomohiro Machiyama is a movie critic and journalist who writes and publishes in Japan. Both authors live in the San Francisco Bay Area. Useful guide for pop-culture tourists, it's stil an enjoyable read even if you never visit Tokyo. -- Fortean Times The perfect accessory for geeks who've saved up enough for a plane ticket to Japan and a few hundred thousand yen of walking-around money. -- Wired Although not for the easily disturbed, for every other anime fan/dilettante with a desire to visit, Cruising the Anime City is fun, fun, fun! -- Library Journal
