Reviews

[Pieter · Rating 4 out of 5]

Exactly like previous fanbooks: a short story at the start followed by a couple of Q&As, various art pieces, 3-panel manga and discussing some of the audio CDs. So, a fun read for fans with an interest of the world and art, which I am, but not nearly as much for others. Still, that is to be expected for a fanbook.
