Flipping through a book?

[Mastamind]

Yeah, I need a specific scene where somebody is flipping the pages of a book. The angle should be from the reader's perspective, so that you see a closeup of the book itself and not the character. Something like this would be ideal:


... except I need the actual animation of the pages flipping and of the hands turning the pages. If it comes down to it, I could always animate the book myself but I really need the hands
Thanks in advance.

There's two scenes in Eureka seveN of a character flipping through a book.
The first is in episode 19, but you only see Eureka open the book to two pages (no flipping through.) In episode 42, Sakuya gives Norbu a book, and Norbu flips through it (from the perspective you mentioned.)

Thanks, I'll check it out. Still open for suggestions though.

There's one that popped into my mind immediately, but unfortunately while from an anime, it's not animation: SDF Macross ED (Minmei version).

It's been a long time since I've watched it, but I think that there might be scenes like that in the last episode (and possibly one other episode) of Saikano.

I'm sure that there are at least a few shows where someone is looking through a magazine, book, or manga. Alas, these are usually quick incidental scenes since I assume that most animators don't want to draw entire pages of a book.

'Card Captor Sakura' episode one when Sakura opens up the book of cards.
I do know more, I just need to verify them.
