Introducing Japanese Popular Culture 

Introducing Japanese Popular Culture Book Cover

"Specifically designed for use on a range of undergraduate and graduate courses, [this book] offers an up-to-date overview of a wide variety of media forms. It uses more than 40 particular case studies as a way into examining the broader themes in Japanese culture and provides a thorough analysis of the historical and contemporary trends that have shaped artistic production, as well as, politics, society, and economics. As a result, more than being a time capsule of influential trends, this book teaches enduring lessons about how popular culture reflects the societies that produce and consume it."
