Edoropolis Emporium

Well it's already popped up here and there, but after a monthly scroll down Udon's Schedule (http://www.udonentertainment.com/blog/schedule) reveals the one and only Official Fan Book in English.
It's listed at Forbidden Planet (https://forbiddenplanet.com/249097-samurai-pizza-cats-official-fan-book/),  Waterstone's (https://www.waterstones.com/book/samurai-pizza-cats-official-fan-book/tatsunoko-production/tatsunoko-production/9781772940381) and Amazon at 35.99 pre-Brexit pounds, and worth every penny of it.

Like I say, not the latest news, but somehow I think it still needs to be posted here.

Will it be a SPC book or a Teyandee book?

That's a good question. I'm hoping there will be an update soon.

Time for an update, and you can find all the information you need here (http://www.udonentertainment.com/blog/news/samurai-pizza-cats-official-fan-book-pre-order-available).
It has some sample pages there, so take a look :) It looks like this will be a translation of the KNT fan book, rather than a SPC fan book and the date for your diary is March 19th 2019.

Woohoo!  :-*  Thanks for this update! I'm super excited about this!

That is super cool. I'll be sure to get a copy.

A quick review - and I now admit that my copy arrived some time last week thanks to...well I've no idea. Maybe it was my nice bookshop.

So, everything in the original fan book is in this one: interviews, episodes guides (except for the clip shows) character introductions and more. You get something which is part reference manual and a behind the scene peek as to how the staff worked on the show.
At the moment, my favourite part is the interviews which go into details such as the small problems with ad-libs and the amount of fun everyone involved had. And alcohol.
The only issue I can see is that some of the captions in the episode guides are not under the correct screenshot - but that to me is a kind of minor detail. Other's may find that kind of this distracting, but I'm just more forgiving ;]

This book is fantastic.

Sounds awesome! I'd love to get myself a copy some day. :)  :-*

I got a copy too. Gotta say that I definitely enjoyed reading the interviews. The cast all seemed to really love their jobs. (It's especially worth noting that they would love to see a sequel happen some day).

The preview of what the rumored sequel was going to be was a highlight for me especially. Definitely recommend picking up the book.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the book.

Like you, I think I would really enjoy reading the interviews and the preview for the sequel.

The amazing thing about SPC/KNT is that the people involved, from the voice talent to the fans, just love this franchise; it doesn't matter how long it's been since it aired because, at the end of the day, the love (and passion) is still there.

I ordered my book from Amazon today. I can't wait to share my thoughts on it with everyone here.

I need to get this thing soon.


This is true. That's what makes the series so special.

Too true; thirty years on and there's still a place in my heart for the show.  Lately I've been letting my little niece play with the SPC soft toys I had made - in fact, I've been fixing them a bit (sticking on loose parts etc.) for her.  Hopefully some day she and her brother will want to watch my DVDs too!  BTW, anyone know if there's a version of the book relating to the US version of the show in the works?

Oh, for sure. This is one of the retro series that I always come back to because it's special to me.

I'm glad that you still come back to the show, and I'm glad that the younger generation is giving this show a fair chance.

I'm not sure about the US version, but I hope that there will be as that's the version I grew up with.
