This book is great for Manga/Anime lovers & anyone who is just learning Japanese cooking. It has easy to follow recipes and it has plenty of pages in the back of the book for people who might add different ingredients to a recipe to fine tune it to there liking. And a must have book for cookbook collectors.
MANGA/ANIME FAN'S DREAM EASY TO DO COOKBOOK September 12, 2009

The Manga CookbookA 5Star publication, The Manga Cookbook is a very easy How To Cook Japanese publication with very cute, expressive, masterful illustrations. Definitely for manga [Japanese Comic] and anime [Japanese animation] fans, who also wish to learn cooking Japanese food their favorite characters eat in much loved stories. With a cute level of 10 [1-10], this publication is both a THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU gift or a I AM SO HAPPY I GOT IT purchase. The instructions are easy to understand. With a bit of practice, this book can make meals to have all your manga/anime loving friends shouting: ARIGATO! [THANKS] as they munch and praise your cooking. With parent or older sibling help, even pre-teens can enjoy COOKING JAPANESE. The instructions are also easy for teens and young adults. A fine publication, The Manga Cookbook, is worth having just on the basis of the cute illustrations. Definitely it is a well thought out instructional cookbook also.

BUY THIS BOOK! July 8, 2009

I bought this book on a whim at Anime Expo. I've read recipes before on making Japanese food, and generally thought, well, that's nice, but it's a lot of effort. After getting halfway through this book in one day, I went shopping and tonight I have umeboshi onigiri made with sushi rice in my fridge, a bento for my lunch tomorrow and have finished a dinner of karaage. This book is PERFECT for the beginner, especially those introduced to the delights of Japanese food through manga or anime. It makes everything simple enough to dive right in and enjoy the delights of Japanese food in your home. The authors have made a real effort to adjust things to American kitchens and measurements. It's even an entertaining read. I can't wait to get through the second half of the book and see what I'm making later this week!

You've gotta be into manga quite a bit before you get into this. And cooking. Unless you think both of those are awesome topics, this isn't for you.
