From Otaku and Hikikomori to Pachinko and Pokémon Go, Joff Bradley carries out a schizoanalysis of a variety of social phenomena in neoliberal Japan, the country Guattari loved, but in an age quite different from his. This is a tour de force that opens up new issues surrounding media and art in today's globalized world—going beyond our archipelago.
