内容説明
These books teach philosophical wisdom by looking closely at entertainment icons. In each volume of this best-selling series, a team of sharp philosophical brains puts one pop culture icon (movie, TV show, or other topic) under the microscope, exposing its hidden philosophical implications in an instantly readable way. This book examines some of the most loved, best-known and intriguing anime films and series to find what lies at their core, underneath the typical but by no means ubiquitous visual elements of big eyes, big hair and bright colors. "Akira", "Astro Boy", "Cowboy Bebop", "Death Note", "Dragon Ball Z", "Full Metal Alchemist", "Ghost in the Shell", "Grave of the Fireflies", "Gundam", "Gunslinger Girls", "Highlander", "Magnetic Rose", "Neon Genesis Evangelion", "Robotech", and "Spirited Away" are just a few of the films you'll find analyzed in this volume. Some you may have heard of, others may be completely new to you. But don't be fooled, these are not children's stories. These are stories about monsters, witches, robots, children and spirits who grapple with questions of societal violence, ethics, morality, justice, heroism, identity and the soul, whether in the midst of World War-II or long after World War-III, whether in a magical valley or on a malevolent space station. If you've been wondering why so many people love anime or even if you're already a true otaku, "Anime and Philosophy" will give you a deeper appreciation for not just the art but also the storytelling of Japan's animated films, TV series and OVA (original video animation).

Anime and Philosophy: Wide Eyed Wonder is an anthology of essays by learned philosophers discussing the philosophical implications of the animated movies and television shows of Japanese popular culture. From "'Astro Boy' and the Atomic Age" to "Did Santa Die on the Cross?" to "Everything You Never Wanted to Know about Sex and Were Afraid to Watch", these writings explore meanings beneath the surface of this widely beloved art form, which speaks to people so strongly that it has generated a solid international audience. Anime and Philosophy is a long overdue and enthusiastically welcome contribution to philosophy collections, highly recommended to anime enthusiasts and philosophers alike.
I loved it

I have to admit that I never knew anime could be analyzed like a book before I read this book. I'm used to seeing anime and Japanese guides, but I have never seen a book pick apart the philosophy of popular and infamous shows. I've only seen philosophy books analyzing popular culture literature, like Harry Potter, Twilight and Hunger Games. Every article was also very well written and well explained.
I would recommend this to almost anyone, especially to people who think that anime is just for children. Personally I liked how this book covered the over-sexualized animated porn and hentai aspects that most people are uneducated about. I also liked that it also covered a lot of deep technological and body aspects as well. This book also helped me discover some animes I have never heard about and would seriously go watch them.
