A book on Tokusatsu, japanese special Effects in english

[KingConan]

I was just wondering if anyone out there knew of a book that has anythign to do with, the history of Tokusatsu, and or the special effects, and model making in it. I had seen some books online but all of them are in japanese. Thanks

They focus a bit more on Godzilla, but they love Ultraman as well. The quality of the newest issue is way higher than the others, but they're all fun reads. Plenty of Kamen Rider in there.

Also, thanks to them, I got to see Tak Sakaguchi fight a man like ten feet in front of me. Before bowing and thanking us, in English, for coming to see his movie. Never gonna forget that.
