Really Cool Piece to Add to the Collection
by Richard A. -
This was a really nice item to buy especially at the discount price it is at, not only is the art in the book amazing and high quality even the pages have a nice thickness to them making for a satisfying feeling when you turn the page. You get over 150+ pages of beautiful art from many amazing works by Makoto Shinkai and even a behind the scenes as to how the art is drawn and colored as well as an interview with Makoto Shinkai and many other that work with him. Over all a really amazing and beautiful collection of art to add to your collection. Highly recommend.
