Interest in Japanese baseball has skyrocketed in recent years, fueled by the arrival of exciting young Japanese players such as Ichiro Suzuki (Mariners), Keiichi Yabu (A's), Hideki"Godzilla" Matsui (Yankees), and Kazuo Matsui (Mets). Taking a fresh subject and approach to the baseball book, "Sayonara Home Run!" is a colorful and fascinating introduction to Japanese baseball through the lens of the country's playfully beautiful baseball cards. "Sayonara Home Run!" presents a fascinating parallel chronicle of America's - or shall we say, Japan's - national pastime. The game was introduced to Japan shortly after it took hold in the U.S. and for more than 130 years, it has been a point of intense national pride in Japan. Its history has many great stars and shares intriguing cross cultural moments with the American game, including: Eiji Sawamura, a pitcher so talented that at 17 years old, he once struck out Charlie Gehringer, Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, and Jimmie Fox in succession during an international all-star game.

If you've ever despaired of expressing yourself, you'll read Sayonara, Gangsters and understand. Set in a facetious near-future that is both mind-bendingly bizarre and achingly familiar. Sayonara, Gangsters is an inventive novel about language, expression and the creative process that unfolds through hilarious sketches. The peaceful if bizarre life of a poetry teacher is forever transformed by a group of terrorists called "the gangsters" in what is, incredibly, a semi-autobiographical novel. On this literary gonzo trip in which a man of letters finds out, too late, that flirting with extremist politics can have unsavory conequences for one's mind, we encounter the likes of Virgil, the refrigerator (a memorable three-dimesional character) and "Henry IV" the feline aficionado of books. Endlessly resourceful, relentlessly erudite, but always accessible, Sayonara, Gangsters is a unique masterpiece of literary postmodernism that aims to entertain rather than to intimidate. From the outrageous beginning, which reads like an oblique reference to the war on terror but is no such thing (it was written more than twenty years ago), to the sobering, devastating end, through the lyrical, poignant middle, Takahashi's legendary first novel is candy for your brain. Sayonara, Gangsters is a must-read for all fans of world literature, available for the first time in English.

Zetsubou-sensei and the students go on several unusual class trips, including an archaeological expedition, the Museum of Unnatural History, and Daisan Sentaku City– the city of the inexplicable third alternative. You know, like, when you're trying to decide whether to get a puppy or a kitten... and you end up with a crocodile? The students also practice selling themselves (legally), getting over their self-entitlement, the art of "soft landings"– a.k.a. breaking bad news gently. Includes special extras after the story!

THE INCONVENIENCE OF CONVENIENCE Zetsubou-sensei is angry again, and this time he’s turned his sights on Inconvenience. Modern-day inventions are supposed to make our lives more efficient, but the sensei sure doesn’t see it that way. TV remote controls are meant to save us time and energy, but how much time do we waste just trying to find the remote? Our cellphones are supposed to keep us connected no matter where we are, but we spend half our time walking around trying to find a signal. Zetsubou-sensei has had it with so-called conveniences! Luckily, he’s come up with the perfect solution: ";Convenience Through Cloning."; Because what the world needs now is another Zetsubou-sensei, and another, and another and . . .

Teachers are supposed to inspire the younger generation to follow their dreams and achieve great things. However, our hero, Nozomu is not that teacher. Nozomu's probably the most depressive man in Japan--so depressive, in fact, that every little setback in life inspires yet another suicide attempt! But then why is being in Nozomu's class such a blast? Is it his quirky and endearing students? The bizarre adventures he leads them on? Or is there something after all to "the Power of Negative Thinking"?IT'S SPRINGTIME FOR ZETSUBOUIt's spring which can only mean cherry blossoms, spring tidings, Golden Week, a new fiscal year, and warm weather! But leave it to Zetsubou-sensei to rain on everyone's parade. Why do we always look at the flowers and forget to eat the dumplings? Why focus on spring tidings, when there are so many spring "chidlings"? What about the people have to work during Golden Week? And what about Zetsubou-sensei's life-threatening outbreak of spring fever? Hilarity ensues in this newest volume of Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei!Includes special extras after the story!

GOODBYE, MR. DESPAIRNozomu Itoshiki is depressed. Very depressed. He’s certifiably suicidal, but he’s also the beloved schoolteacher of a class of unique students, each charming in her own way: The stalker. The shut-in. The obsessive-compulsive. The girl who comes to class every day with strange bruises. And Kafuka, the most optimistic girl in the world, who knows that every cloud has a silver lining. For all of them, it’s a special time, when the right teacher can have a lasting positive effect on their lives. But is that teacher Itoshiki, a.k.a. Zetsubou-sensei, who just wants to find the perfect place to die?
