WRITING
PAPERS
These
questions should help to get you started if you're interested in
writing a school paper about anime.
- I want to write a
paper about anime. Where should I start?
Start with what you know. If you're interested in writing
about anime, you've certainly seen some anime, so begin with
that. There is anime out there that will appeal to every
taste.
- What books should
I begin with?
It depends on how deep you're looking to go. As a good
introduction to anime analysis, I'd recommend Antonia Levi's
Samurai From Outer Space. For a more sophisticated read,
try Susan J. Napier's Anime: From Akira to Princess
Mononoke. Gilles Poitras' Anime Essentials is a
pretty good primer as well. More information on these books
can be found of the Books page of
this website.
