Hiroki Azuma

Books 2001Otaku: Japan's Database AnimalsHiroki Azuma

This was a challenging book to read. It is certainly an academic work and one belonging to a field I've never studied. That said, it is not an unapproachable book. It is fairly short and Hiroki explains himself well while providing plenty of broader context for his views. And I think his core arguments are compelling and fairly easy to follow. The book focuses on otaku culture but his database model of consumption can clearly be seen in many other contexts including in the West, many driven by the internet. I think the audience for this book is pretty small but I'd recommend those interested.
