\"\"<\/p>\n

Book-Off in Kyoto. Frighteningly cheap books.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Casa Magazine Cover in an Osaka Bookstore. Featuring a lovely little colour Moomin illustration.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Osaka Bookstore– 21 prints magazine with a cover by and feature on Moyocco Anno.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Same bookstore. It’s another history book by Hideo Azuma, author of Disappearance Diary. <\/em>Lots more to be released by this fascinating creator.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A brand-new 2-volume best-of of Oishinbo, focussing on Shiro and Yuzan. MAVERICK! TYCOON!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Tripped over the Japanese-language reprints of Moomin whilst there. Lovely, small little hardcovers. Let’s have a peak:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It’s a little funny to see the Moomin’s speaking Japanese… especially type-set Japanese.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Another classic of comics literature… kept in the kids-book section rather than with the manga or comics.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Videogame strategy guides and artbooks. I spent a bit of money here.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I have no interest in Monster Hunter, but the art in this was lovely. 2 hardcovers in one package.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Monster Hunter is really<\/em> popular in Japan.<\/p>\n

I’ve got another big post in me on the manga sections of bookstores, for you bookstore fans. No worries.<\/p>\n
