Mutant Turtles Kanzen Daizukan (ミュータント・タートルズ完全大図鑑, Mutant Turtles Complete Encyclopedia) is a 128 page publication from Kōdansha, released in september 10th 1994. This book is the 92nd numbered release in their Comic BomBom Special series of books. This book is the second of 2 TMNT books released under the Comic Bombom Special series. As opposed to many Japanese books, this book is read left-to-right similarly as western books are. This book is preceded by Mutant Turtles Himitsu Ōhyakka (ミュータント・タートルズ秘密大百科, Mutant Turtles Secret Encyclopedia).
The encyclopedia covers a wide variety of topics that were contemporary to its publication, including toys and merchandise such as TMNT branded camera, wristwatch and calculators, list of episodes and episode synopsises for 1987 TV series, interviews with cartoon voice actors, third theatrical film as well as production art for samurai versions of the Turtles.
In the back of the book is a 14 page comic, which is the only part of the book that is oriented to read right-to-left as per Japanese printing traditions. The comic prints the remaining 4 pages from Mutant Turtles manga that was printed in Comic BomBom #4/1994 and all 10 pages that were originally published in Comic Bombom #5/1994. Both Mutant Turtles Himitsu Ōhyakka and Mutant Turtles Kanzen Daizukan are to date the only time when Mutant Turtles manga from Comic BomBom #3-5/1994 have been reprinted.
