      The third edition of this guide to Japanese anime film contains more than 1,000 new entries, bringing the total to just over 4,000. Entries cover titles, studios, and writers as well as directors, but there are also 28 thematic entries on anime history and culture. Title entries include information on English-language releases, formats and running times, creative credits, plot outlines, and critical commentary. There are content advisories, making this a useful resource for parents and librarians. Although there are no illustrations in this edition, the publisher notes it was a necessary choice made to keep the guide to a single print volume. As the previous edition is now woefully out of date, libraries will want to replace with this newer version.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2015, American Library Association.)
