I actually already bought and received 2 of them (just the basic book with no fancy cover etc.) - I will be giving one away as a gift and keeping one. I sure don’t consider myself a hipster, but I did live in Japan for awhile and have some nostalgia for that… It’s actually a really nice well designed book (in an elegant Japanese sort of way) for a number of reasons but I won’t try to become a salesman for it. Maybe there’s similar books for a lot cheaper but I’m not so sure - either way I have no regrets (or hipster self consciousness) about it
