Always wondered how he got involved in a glorious ecchi fest as HOTD. I mean, his character design worked pretty well for the show, but like, when I see faces that look like they came ToraDora and Anohana in HOTD.......it feels like we are watching Menma trying to provide "service" to the male audience.

Almost every art books bleeds certain content to sale it. With emphasis on the sex appeal.

Nonetheless it looks nice! But it`s also expensive!

I am planning on going to Comiket this year, but I am worried about how fast this might sell out.

Anime Style is publishing this book, so you just have to wait for couple of months for mass release in Amazon Japan.

She is Miho from Cross Road, a commercial directed by Makoto Shinkai.

Dude, please stop.
I have seen most of your posts and none of them were positive nor constructive. Please keep your thoughts to yourself.

Your posting style is immature and childish too, is this how forumer act?

While most of it seems nice, that one picture of Menma at the beach is like new levels of Escher girl. What in earth is happening with her arms? And the way she's contorting herself... Yikes. Maybe an actual contortionist could make a pose where they're bending down as if to touch their knees, and then arching their back so that their head is facing more up while also standing twinkle toed... O.o

Is this an issue on my end or is everyone seeing this in the article?

I like his character art so this is some great news. Hoping to get the SAO artbook too.

It's one of the benefits of no longer having a physical body.

Having bought books from Anime Style (publisher), 4000 yen is average price for them because of the quantity. Usually non-mass produced art books are always expensive. I don't even bother look at most Anime art books because they're loaded with useless synopsis/guide and crammed page layout design.
