Abstract

In Anime’s Media Mix, author Marc Steinberg shows that anime is far more than a style of Japanese animation. Engaging with film, animation, and media studies, as well as analysis of consumer culture and theories of capitalism, Steinberg offers the first sustained study of the Japanese mode of convergence that informs global media practices to this day. Casey Brienza finds this is a very flawed book but nevertheless, a very good one.
