Hi everyone, I'm new to these forums (albeit a long time lurker), but had to post something about my new acquisition: Air artbook (the one for the game, not the tv or movie artbook). My friend from Japan came to visit and brought along some goodies which included the artbook. The artbook is much better than the movie and tv artbooks. It came with a hard cover case thing that the artbook can be inserted into. Very nice. The book itself is much bigger than the movie/tv one, in terms of size and content-- its thick.
I was a bit suprised at first when I was looking throught it. It had naked pictures of Misuzu and the other characters, and other pictures with the characters engaged in very proacitave situations. I then remember that the anime was based off an h-game and obviously I was looking at the AIR game artbook. I suppose these pictures were taken from the game. Aside from the echhi stuff, excellent art. High quality paper too. So far it is my favorite out of my 3 other AIR artbooks I own. BTW there is a sketch book type artbook out there as well. So if you ask me about the 3rd one its that one I refer to.
If anyone else owns any of the other artbooks, how much did you pay for them? I showed my friend the sketch book AIR artbook (which I bought for $30 usd), and he tells me it would cost him 500 yen ($5 usd) in Japan.
