Anime : from Akira to Howl's moving castle : experiencing contemporary Japanese animation

Napier, Susan Jolliffe2005
Book
When 'Spirited Away' won the Oscar for best animated film in 2002, Hayao Miyazaki proved that anime was much more than cartoons for children or a ploy to sell trading cards. Susan Napier demonstrates how anime can be used to explore important social and cultural issues in a sophisticated and entertaining way.
