the otaku’s passion is all-consuming. whether it be cosplay, gothic, or rockabilly, when the japanese embrace a subculture, they do it like no other. from lolita fashion and latex couture to neon-drenched big-rigs, anime-plastered vans, and chrome-heavy hot rods, subcultures in japan are as varied as they are fascinating.
delving into these worlds, the obsessed reveals the extraordinary passion devotees have for their hobbies and lifestyles. with dazzling photography, on-the-ground interviews, and cultural essays, this book showcases a kaleidoscope of scenes and individuals drawn from japan’s many countercultural groups.
