Erotic Comics in Japan
An Introduction to Eromanga
Kaoru Nagayama Patrick Galbraith (Oversetter) Jessica Bauwens-Sugimoto (Oversetter) Chikuma Shobo (Bidragsyter)
"Packed with dense on-the-ground knowledge and experience, this book illustrates how erotic manga and eroticism per se interleaves with manga for children and globally recognized works. A valuable resource for students of postwar sexuality and comics."
- Sharon Kinsella, University of Manchester
"This path-breaking English-language resource on eromanga is eye opening. It not only undermines assumptions about the gender identity of creators and readers, but also exposes that manga is not fully manga without its mediations of sexuality."
- Jaqueline Berndt, Stockholm University
"Nagayama presents a history of the development of erotic manga, and run-down of its many variant niches, sure to prove eye-poppingly illuminating to contemporary scholars."
- Jonathan Clements, author of Anime: A History

Comics and cartoons from Japan, or manga and anime, are an increasingly common feature of visual and popular culture around the world. While it is often observed that these media forms appeal to broad and diverse demographics, including many adults, eroticism continues to unsettle critics and has even triggered legal action in some jurisdictions. It is more urgent than ever to engage in productive discussion, which begins with being informed about content that is still scarcely understood outside small industry and fan circles. Erotic Comics in Japan: An Introduction to Eromanga is the most comprehensive introduction in English to erotic comics in Japan, or eromanga. Divided into three parts, it provides a history of eroticism in Japanese comics and cartoons generally leading to the emergence of eromanga specifically, an overview of seven themes running across works with close analysis of outstanding examples and a window onto ongoing debates surrounding regulation and freedom of expression in Japan.
