Introduction -- The trajectory of apocalyptic discourse -- Apocalypse in Japan -- Apocalyptic science fiction from 1945 to the 1970s -- Apocalyptic science fiction in 1980s Japan -- Apocalyptic science fiction after 1995: Sekaikei works -- Apocalyptic imagination after 2011 -- Conclusion.

"Starting with the history of apocalyptic tradition in the West and focusing on modern Japanese apocalyptic science fiction in manga, anime, and novels, Apocalypse in Contemporary Japanese Science Fiction shows how science fiction reflected and coped with the devastation in Japanese national identity after 1945. The structure of apocalyptic science fiction reveals what is at stake in Japanese society - cultural continuity, tradition, politics, ideology, reality, communities, and interpersonal relationships - and suggests ways to cope with these crises and visions for the future, both positive and negative. By looking at the postwar period, Motoko Tanaka observes how Japanese apocalyptic discourse has changed in its role as a tool according to the zeitgeists of various decades." -- Publisher's description.
