Hello new Summer Wars material! Definitely got to pick this up eventually, that movie is one of my all time favorite...hell, favorite ANYTHING.

Udon does manga sometimes too, right? Wonder if they'd be interested in bringing over the Summer Wars manga as well. It's more or less the same as the movie, but there is an added little bonus at the end that's rather sweet, so I'm fond of it as well.

Summer Wars was brilliant (going to need to buy a DVD set to rewatch it, PS3 kicked the bucket) and Harada has done some great artwork for Disgaea and otherwise.

It was especially cool when Valkyria Chronicles 3's art book was confirmed despite the game never leaving Japan. I haven't even played the second game myself, but I'll have all three on my shelf very soon. >_>

Loving everyone's post. I definitely want the Summer Wars book. I've been pondering picking it up sometime before last year's end. I had planned to import it along with 'Wolf Children' and 'GWLTT'. Definitely on my list of buys. I also want the Harada works book as well.

The Harada book is a definite order for me. I love Disgaea, and Phantom Brave and Makai Kingdom were highly under the radar. It's interesting that the book is titled "Takehito Harada Art Works I"; maybe there will be a follow up somewhere down the line with art from Disgaea 3/4 and Mugen Souls.

YES........I love Harada's art-style, though I prefer it after about Disgaea 3, when it got more cartoony. I'd love to get this.

Agreed, it would be nice to see them pick up the manga as well, hopefully they will do so if the Artbook sales well.

I'm not familiar with the licensing and release of material books, does this mean Udon will release the Summer Wars book translated?
