Catsuka’s Tribute to Satoshi Kon

The website Catsuka has posted “A Tribute to Satoshi Kon”, a well known movie/anime director, on-line.  The tribute contains photos of a variety of artists paying homage to Satoshi Kon.  This is a French website, but they do have an English link which is linked below.  I have also provide the French and Japanese links as well.  Your library’s anime fans will like to view this and it will give you some talking points with them.  Thanks to AnimeNews Network for the heads up and to all involved in the tribute great job one and all.
