 Rating:  - Good for reference, not so much for techniqueI'm slightly disappointed with this book, but only because it's not quite what I was expecting. I would have thought that, for a book on erotic manga, there would be much more technique tuition and a tight focus on how to draw intimate areas as well as couples engaging in sexual play. Instead, this book is actually extremely coy. Focusing almost exclusively on women, the most explicit it gets is bare breasts and buttocks. It is divided into sections - including 'professions', 'horror' and 'fantasy' - and each section looks at particular stereotypical character, from sketch stage to finished art. As I said before, almost every drawing is of a woman, and 95% of the time she is on her own. There are a few 'tips' which accompany each drawing - varying in helpfulness. I gave this book 3 stars, but its usefulness to a reader really depends on what they're after. I wanted more instruction, more focus on anatomy and more couple interaction, so I feel a bit misled by the book's description. (Forget manga genitals, there's not even a kiss in this book!). However, if you draw/would like to draw rather soft-core porn ladies with large breasts, this would make a great reference book for your bookshelf. Rating:  - Great book.Ive just received this and am already very impressed with the content and format of the book. I have several books on the same subject by Japanese authors and whilst they are good guides to the art of manga this book is in a separate class. I really think that this is a book for the more established artist as it does not give a great deal of time to technique. It does focus on theme, composition and lighting. The illustrations are excellent and they are presented in an uncluttered way which i found quite inspiring. This is definitely good value for money considering the cost and the number of pages. A very good companion book to The Monster Book of Manga.
