Love & Dystopia

A fabulously original and imaginative new manga coloring book that celebrates love in the face of the apocalypse, whether it be a meteor, an alien attack, or a giant twister

Special features:

Never have there been so many ways put forward in the form of best-selling books, movies, comics, graphic novels, and TV/cable series of how the world, how humanity, even how the universe is going to end. We love staring into the abyss, whether it is an asteroid on a collision course with Earth or a supervolcano. But even better is to meet the end of times holding the hand of someone you love.

Love & Dystopia: A Manga Coloring Book is an imaginative collection of original coloring images that represent the power of love, even when the apocalypse is at hand. The love represented includes romantic love, love of friends, first love, and love of family, whether between humans, humanoids, pets and animals, and/or robots. Enjoy coloring familiar images of romance and companionship (a picnic, holding hands, dancing, taking a selfie) set against a backdrop of destruction, imminent threat, or in a post-apocalyptic world, whether it be from a supernova, a tidal wave, or a fatal rip in the space-time continuum, all drawn in the high-energy, upbeat signature style of manga artist ANZU.

Coloring is an enjoyable activity that also delivers tangible mental health benefits. It can calm as well as relax the brain and improve its ability to function. Coloring can also relieve stress and anxiety and improve focus. So color yourself hopeful as you splash your own creative colors on the poignant, sweet, and funny designs of this incredibly original and imaginative coloring celebration of love.
