About this ebook

Survival Instincts explores how action manga, often classified in the adventure and sports genres, can offer surprising insights into real-world survival and human endurance. It examines the portrayal of survival skills in manga narratives, comparing them to established wilderness training protocols, and analyzes how these stories build tension around challenges of human endurance, juxtaposing them with documented cases. Interestingly, manga creators often research real-world survival methods, drawing inspiration from diverse sources. The book offers a unique perspective by treating manga as cultural texts that engage with real-world concerns.

It unfolds by first introducing core concepts of wilderness training and survival psychology. It then explores how specific survival skills are depicted in manga, comparing them to established protocols, and analyzes endurance challenges. Finally, it addresses the implications of these narratives, considering how they shape our understanding of human potential and our approach to risk and resilience.
