Publisher: SunCloud Design
ISBN:
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
Your complete anime persona takes account of your unique personality and appearance, and develops and accentuates those traits which have a natural place in an anime life. Your individual characteristics, aside from being developed in alignment with your "ideal" anime life, are also contrasted with a group of friends, each also committed to developing an anime lifestyle and persona. Together, individual similarities and differences help create a dynamic and fun group environment. And since no anime lifestyle is complete without some exciting plot-line, the group is put into action going on adventures, working on projects, and achieving goals together. In chapter 1, you will take several quizzes to help you determine what anime personality traits you have. This will help you find your niche among the friends who will take the anime dream to the next level, providing a context for your individual character to be fully realized. In chapter 2, you will learn how you can bring the anime dream to it’s ultimate manifestation by structuring your group around a Group Focus. The Group Focus serves as a kind of plot-line within which talents will be realized and adventures will be had. In chapter 3, you’ll learn how to plan exciting adventures. From fun afternoons to overnight trips - adventures of all sorts are discussed in detail, as well as how to make them affordable and safe. Chapter 4 discusses ways to add anime magic to holidays. In addition to traditional Western holidays that are also celebrated in Japan, common Japanese holidays, celebrated in Japan and in anime, will be discussed. We will review ways to incorporate those holidays in your life through small celebrations with your friends. Chapter 5 discusses group projects - activities that you and your friends can work on together such as making a group photo book, sewing costumes, and making anime style accessories. There is even a how-to guide for creating anime-like photos.
