Yoshitaka Amano: The Illustrated Biography Beyond the Fantasy Limited Edition

I've always been a big fan of Yoshitaka Amano and this book is a must-buy for fans. Fascinating interviews, facts I never knew, and the wonderful art had me enthralled. It humanizes Amano in so many ways and the writing is top-notch. The one thing this makes me feel is I hope there's one day a Final Fantasy game in Amano's original style!

I absolutely love this hardback full of gorgeous illustrations from Vampire Hunter D (my favorite anime) to Final Fantasy (one of my favorite gaming franchises) The book came packed very well and arrived in great condition - thankfully!! So many people ship such nice things in those terrible bubble mailers - there was minimal denting and thank goodness as it would be such a shame for this piece of art itself to be damaged If you are a fan of Yoshitaka's work, this is a must buy.

Bought for a friend who is a fellow lover of Amano's work. Both of us expected it to be a typical coffee table artbook. We were pleasantly suprised to find out it was so much more! Beautifully detailed, bringing through the life and inspiration of some of Amano's best work in video games, anime, and beyond. Definitely a must buy!

I had been waiting since March to receive this book and when it came in this week my high expectations were surpassed. The slipcase for the 2 books and DVD case/lithographs is really high quality. Had a great texture and design and is very sturdy. Both books are of great quality in color and type of paper used. Both lithographs are quite lovely, a VHD and a FF. I have not watched the DVD yet, but I can barely wait. As they might say, you are definitely getting your bang for your buck with this book.

From what it is, an amazing book about an amazing person. Would recommend to my enemies, they need a good read for a change. Still gave an amazing detail quality of his work and life 10 out of 10...... note to self enemies enjoyed the book, this is nice.

Pristine for an Amazon Warehouse item. The damage to the front was primarily to the shrink wrap, and the red ink spot on the bottom edge is barely noticeable. Awesome book with beautiful artwork; it went well with the Final Fantasy art books in my girlfriend’s collection.

Love the entire collection from the biography talking about some of the inspiration for his works, to the sketches and art designs presented. The signed lithographs were a heck of a plus! Any art and/or Amano fan would love to have something like this.

As a fan of Amano’s work for nearly 30 years, I Loved everything about this set from the amazing quality, to the lovely presentation of all items and exquisite overall presentation. Dark Horse in general has been making some impressive volumes lately. Highly recommend. Nothing feels cheap or like they skimped on anything. If you are a fan, this should occupy a very prominent place on your bookshelf. It’s a charismatic multimedia presentation and an amazing conversation starter for those new to Amano’s work.

画集というよりは天野喜孝氏の子ども時代から年代を追った仕事を網羅したバイオグラフィー的な内容。 若い頃の天野喜孝氏本人（イケメン）の写真などが結構載っています。 初期のイラストから最近の画までを網羅していますが、絵というよりは解説がメイン。 当然、文章は全て英語です。 こういう集大成的な本が日本ではなく海外で出てしまうのが天野喜孝氏らしいです。

Exquisite quality, beautiful box with the profound biographical book of the artist and his Paris sketches in a separate soft over edition.

Great sending and great product. Is expense but it is a great to have and to keep for the next generation

Livro muito bonito, mas veio mal embalado, um libro raro e caro como esse deveria pelo menos vir envolvido com um plástico bolha. O meu veio solto em uma caixa maior que ele que no transporte amassou, com isso a borda do livro veio amassada da maneira que está na foto. Só não pedi pra trocar porque demorou muito para vir, mas infelizmente fiquei chateada que meu livro novo veio amassado.
