About Our Company:

Vertical translates the best contemporary Japanese books. We select our
popular novels, graphic novels, and quality nonfiction from a rich,
variegated stock: Japan's huge and vibrant book market.
In fields like animation and video games, Japanese entertainment thrills
people worldwide. The Japanese book world's offerings are equally
entertaining. Until now, however, most Japanese books translated into
English have been either literary classics or introductions to
traditional culture meant for a limited circle of Japanophiles. Vertical
publishes exciting titles that require no prior knowledge of Japanese
culture and are not intended primarily to familiarize readers with it;
we choose good reads with universal themes.
