Essential Bibliography
The following is the list of references collected by myself and
used to compile the check-list. Each reference is given in its
original language when this uses the roman alphabet. For Japanese
references, the titles are given in romaji and with ISBN code. If
you know a good bibliographic source of information about japanese
animation please let me
know. Also available a more detailed
annotated multidisciplinary Italian bibliography.
