Product Description

Omnipresence: Yoshitoshi ABe Art Book returns at last in a faithful hardcover reprint edition. Created to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the TV anime serial experiments lain, this long out-of-print 1999 art book is reproduced in a striking A4 wide format, preserving the atmosphere and design of the original as closely as possible.

In addition to full-color artwork, this edition also includes monochrome sketches, 4-panel comics, and the complete about the layers talks by Yoshitoshi ABe and Chiaki J. Konaka originally published in AX.
