'FINAL FANTASIES'

Writer and translator Jonathan Clements presents a brief history of digital anime, from the first stirrings in Golgo 13, to the advanced computer graphics of today.

What made companies work with computers? What impact did it have on the anime industry? Who was the nutter who captured his own heart monitor readout and put it on screen? How did the rise of computer games and digital animation affect the kind of story that got made? And what happens next?
