Composition
Zero no Tsukaima – Eiji Usatsuka Illustrations is a 148 pages artbook. It begins with a flyer : on the front side we find Louise in two different outfits, and on the back front we found her dressed warmly with Kirche. The artbook is composed of five categories, called chapters : Louise (30 pages), Characters (41 pages), Monochrome (28 pages), Adventure of Tabitha (17 pages) and Other Illust (4 pages) Then, it is possible to discover japanese pages (I do not know what is written), and a summary showing the artbook content.

Notice
Zero no Tsukaima – Eiji Usatsuka Illustrator is a beautiful artbook, and I say this objectively. Its content is very different, sometimes with illustrations in color and sometimes in black & white. The format change also, and found A4 drawings and small vignettes. We can discover all Zero no Tsukaima characters, while Louise is more present (but that's normal, she is the heroin). The Eiji Usatsuka style is special, then I think that everybody will not like it (for example, Shad prefer the anime design). Personally, I love Zero no Tsukaima universe and especially Louise, that's why, I think that this style does not disturb me, however. I found it original, and I like very much! I'm really happy of my purchase. I recommend this artbook!
