Japan Research - Secondary Sources

This page is a bibliography of secondary sources in book form which I use in my writing.

On ordering books:
Most of these books are in print, some only from Japanese publishers. A good store for ordering books from, especially if they are published in Japan is Kinokuniya which has bookshops in various parts of the world.
NOTE: If a book title is a link click on it to get access to a legal free copy.

I also have separate lists for the specific sources used, including articles and essays not listed here, in The Anime Companion and The Anime Companion 2.

For information about these two books and these supplement pages see The Anime Companion Supplement main page.


NOTE: Items marked with a * are entries with minimal information. I will be adding the more bibliographic information over time. The additions will be weekly so even if slow there will be progress.
