Giga Town

"Manga symbols--'manpu'--in Japanese--are iconic or symbolic expressions used uniquely in manga, such as sweat drops, popping veins, and smoke puffs. [This book] is (probably) Japan's first guide to this manga iconography, collecting and explaining these symbols, with a short manga featuring the . . . animals of the . . . Japanese scroll Choju-jinbutsu-giga to explain each one! [This book] includes an informative afterward that teaches the flow of manga reading, a great addition for beginning manga readers!"--Amazon.
