Description: [About Item - Overview]The astonishing blueprint for the anime version of "Akira". The first half of a collection of unprecedentedly detailed storyboards drawn with the artistic power of the serialization at its peak. Rare book reprinted with re-editing!The animated film version of Akira, which was released in theaters in 1988, went beyond the realm of manga and revolutionized the world of anime. Although this anime was made under an unusual production system in which the original author, Katsuhiro Otomo himself served as the director and scriptwriter, it is an exceptional masterpiece that has received worldwide acclaim. This book is the first volume of a two-volume collection of the huge amount of storyboards that Otomo himself drew up in order to produce the anime version. It was once published by the Young Magazine Editorial Department in 1988 in two separate volumes, but since it went out of print in a short period of time, rare items that have long been a premium item are now available in the first period of the "Katsuhiro Otomo Complete Works". This is the long-awaited reprint of the first distributed title.This book includes the first half A and B of the four parts A, B, C, and D, making it a large volume of nearly 500 pages. This book is like a "reading video" where you can replay images of the anime version of "AKIRA" in your mind just by looking at it, so the more you read it carefully, the more you will be able to experience the author's amazing animation production techniques. The book title "Storyboards" is the English term for "storyboard".
