Primo volume di Mechademia, la rivista made in U.S.A. su anime, manga e tutt'eccose.
Essendo un primo numero, i pezzi sono dedicati a una panoramica generica e generale. Tra l'altro questo numero è parecchio smilzo rispetto ai successivi...

Due righe su alcuni degli articoli.
I buoni:
- Due articoli non malaccio sulla diffusione internazionale di manga & anime, di Anne Allison e Wendy Siuyi Wong; il secondo, in particolare, spiega la situazione nei paesi asiatici tipo Corea, Cina, Taiwan...more

some of the articles were meh. The best one was Ueno Toshiya's "Kurenai no metalsuits"

Hadn't heard the term ' shukuri sedai ' ( sugar generation ) before

Some of the articles in this volume are really dull, some are fascinating, and the others are serviceable. I really hit a snag with the articles about cosplay, video game interactivity, and superflat. Without those, this is a good read. I'm not in a hurry to find the other Mechademia volumes, but I definitely will purchase them sometime in the future.
