   Sometimes called a storyboard (that's the usual   
   English-language term). You can sometimes find   
   published or unpublished storyboards/e konte for   
   other animes; there is a published one for the   
   second Vampire Hunter D movie (VHD:Bloodlust in   
   the USA), and I've snagged a few Tenshi ni Narumon   
   storyboards (not published) off Yahoo Japan   
   Auctions.

   I think this varies; I've sometimes found the writing   
   pretty easy to read, and I'm not that proficient with   
   Japanese. It is certainly worth trying to get a   
   better grip on the characters.
