The book Warriors of Legend is one of the first of its kind, using a specific Japanese anime/manga series- the megahit Sailor Moon- to teach about Japan. Neophytes to Japan studies will find Warriors of Legend an accessible way to learn about this fascinating country. Those who know quite a lot about Japan already will find their understanding enhanced by the way the book analyzes the nuances of Tokyo's history and Japanese society. The book also argues that Sailor Moon is a unique series in that it was both internationally popular and strongly structured by the culture of the city of Tokyo and post-Economic Bubble Japan.

Raquel I live my life by one rule: fight to survive. I don't like people; I don't like my job, and I definitely do not like the broody man I'm interviewing. I've built up these walls to keep me safe, Sean's presence in my world would only complicate things. He wouldn't know what to do with me if I came with an instruction manual-because women like me don't get the happily ever after. He might just be the one to break the mirror of my fragile identity. And if I'm not careful? I'll let him. Sean I live my life by one rule: family is everything. I do this for the money; I don't care about flipping houses, and I don't like being interrogated about it by this wannabe Hemingway. But I can't deny my immediate attraction towards her, it fills my mind with what if's-and I only just met her. Raquel doesn't know what she wants, but I know what she needs. I'm ready to give her it all. Even if she needs to hate me first.

SeanI want all of her; the consequences be damned. I don't care about the baggage, the fear, the hurt.I'm determined to prove that I'm different. That this all-consuming energy between us is a once in a lifetime kind of love that would burn forever if we let it. I'd give her the life that she deserves. But she keeps digging into a dark secret that's bigger than me, bigger than us. I can't protect her from the truth.No one can.RaquelI don't believe in 'happily ever after', my upbringing didn't allow me to be that naïve.Not until him.For the first time in my life, maybe I deserve forever.But before I allow myself to fall into fantasy, I need answers so I can let go of my past. They say the truth sets you free...This truth shattered me.

Anna Claire has written these poems with older schoolchildren in mind, hoping they will encourage lively debate and reflection. Many of the poems are personal, and some are tragic but they are based on situations and circumstances that most of us encounter or face at some point during our lifetime. Reflection enables us to respond to others with understanding, and perhaps with the benefit of doing so, we are better equipped to deal with that which might otherwise overwhelm oneself, or those close to us. The human spirit is strong and has amazing abilities to overcome difficulties.
