Such a Big Deal? Japanese Manga Sound Effects?


A few weeks back, while doing a random Google search on "sound effects", I came across references to "Japanese Sound Effects" and "Manga Sound Effects": the art of expressing sound through imagery within the panels of manga, or Japanese graphic novels. I was fortunate to discover that a local Border's Books and Music had a copy of KANA DE MANGA: JAPANESE SOUND FX!(created by Glenn Kardy) in stock. I will read and report in a few days. I have also discovered that a fair majority of web surfers stopping by here at The Random Access Thought are keenly interested in this subject!
