Hideaki Anno is the director of Neon Genesis Evangelion - the multimillion DVD seller than led to the Cartoon Network launching an anime block called Toonami. His Evangelion films are distributed theatrically globally by Warner Bros, each averaging $39 million in US box office sales: the highest for any Japanese animated movie. With Insufficient Direction, Moyoco Anno details her husband's life as a director, while detailing how he evolved from a sci-fi obsessed nerd to an international curator of Japanese pop culture.

I‘m a bit confused as to the reason behind translating this one. The amount of anime and manga references is a bit much and copious amounts of translation notes are needed to explain them all. The dialogue is stilted and reads in a very unnatural way. It feels like it may have been translated too literally. It‘s just kind of a boring, awkward read.
