The Second Try
The Second Try Jimmy Wolk Chapter I: The 12th Shinji Ikari, Third Children and designated pilot of Evangelion Unit-01, had just reached a new sync- ratio record. And as Rei Ayanami suspected, the former holder of this record, known as Asuka Langley Soryu, wasn't very pleased with this. So she didn't pay much attention to the rants of the Second Children, who made obviously ironical statements about the 'great, invincible Shinji' while holding herself; swaying in front of her locker. Instead, Rei finished changing from the plugsuit the pilots were supposed to wear during their time in the entry plugs of the EVAs or the test plugs, into her casual school uniform. As soon as she was done, she went silently for the door of the female pilots' changing room, whispered "Sayonara" and left. With the First Children gone, Asuka could finally release all the feelings that tensed up the last hours in a powerful... ...sigh. She still had problems to play this charade in front of everyone, and it seemed to only grow harder. She wasn't sure if she would be able to keep it up much longer at all. Not while these thoughts disturbed her mind; thoughts of all the things that happened... or will happen soon. Lost in her worries, she failed to notice someone entering the room, sneaking up to her and suddenly embracing her from behind; encircling her arms with his own. She tensed up noticeably as she felt the touch, even though (or maybe just because) she knew exactly who the stranger was. -

Y. TSANG King’s College London, Department of Comparative Literature, Ph.D. Student Generally categorized as low art, Japanese manga and anime draw insufficient overseas critical attention, regardless of their enormous cultural influence in East Asia. Their popularity not simply proved the success of cultural industrialization in Japan, but also marks a series of local phenomena, reflecting social dynamicity and complexity, that deserve interdisciplinary analysis. During the lost decade in the 1990s, which many scholars studied with economic accent (Katz 1998, Grimes 2001, Lincoln 2001, Amyx 2004, Beason and Patterson 2004, Rosenbluth and Thies 2010), manga and anime industry in Japan entered its golden age. The publication and broadcast of some remarkable works, such as Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon, Crayon Shin-chan and Slam Dunk, not only helped generate huge income (nearly 600 billion yen earned in the manga market in 1995) that alleviated economic depression, but also distracted popular focus from the urge of demythologising national growth. -

The Cultural Context and the Interpretation of Japanese 'Lolita
Intercultural Communication Studies XXIII: 2 (2014) HINTON The Cultural Context and the Interpretation of Japanese ‘Lolita Complex’ Style Anime Perry R. HINTON Independent Academic Researcher, UK Abstract: Japanese animated films or anime have been popular in the West since the early 1990s. However, media interest in anime (particularly in Britain) has tended to focus on negative representations of anime concerning violence, sexuality and young girls. The current paper undertakes an examination of the genre of ‘Lolita complex’ or rorikon anime, the focus of these concerns. It is argued that the term ‘Lolita’ has a culturally specific meaning and that it has a different meaning in Western culture to that in Japan. This has led to a misperception of aspects of Japanese society and its cultural products such as anime. Furthermore it is argued that rorikon anime reflects teenage anxieties about the adult world, and changes in society and gender roles rather than perverse male sexual desire. An examination of the elements of rorikon anime shows that, rather than the product of a cultural ‘other’, it reflects features common across Japanese and Western cultures. Keywords: Japanese anime, Lolita complex, rorikon, shoujo, British media, cultural context, gender roles 1. Introduction One of the key aspects of globalization is the ready availability of the cultural products of one country to other nations round the world. The development of the internet as a global marketplace and its social media role for creating communities of fans of these products has further enhanced this cross-cultural communication. This can be seen most clearly in the popularity of Japanese popular culture (in terms of a range of products such as animated films (anime), comic books (manga), video games and toys) in Western countries. -
Anime: the Cultural Signification of the Otaku Anime
ANIME: THE CULTURAL SIGNIFICATION OF THE OTAKU ANIME: THE CULTURAL SIGNIFICATION OF THE OTAKU By Jeremy Sullivan, B.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies In Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements For the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University © Copyright by Jeremy Sullivan, September 2005 MASTER OF ARTS (2005) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (English) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Anime: The Cultural Signification of the Otaku AUTHOR: Jeremy Sullivan, B.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Lorraine York NUMBER OF PAGES: v, 103 Abstract Technology has allowed nearly instantaneous communication around the globe and this study examines how cultural transmission occurs through the consumption of television and film. Anime, a term used to refer to a genre of animation that is of Japanese origin, has become immensely popular in North America and has come to simultaneously come to signify a commodifled Japanese youth culture. However, the spectrum of Japanese animation is restricted and controversial anime that includes offensive themes, violent, sexual or illicit material are not televised, or publicized except when associated with negative behaviour. The Otaku are labeled as a socially deviant subculture that is individualistic and amoral. Their struggle for autonomy is represented by their production, circulation and consumption of manga and anime, despite the insistence of the dominant Japanese and North American cultural discourses. This study will examine how publicly circulating definitions, media review, historical relations and censorhip have affected the portrayal of otaku subculture in Japan and internationally. in Acknowledgements A special thanks to my thesis supervisor Lorraine York. Without her patience and guidance this project would not have been possible. -

INSERTO 8Vo a FINESTRA Singole 2
DRY_WHY the male gaze and thus to try and redress the imbalance of power between the sexes in life and in art. It is unsurprising then, that the gender politics surrounding art since the 1970s have often reflected a strongly feminist agenda. In addition, from the 1980’s, Queer Theory has also gained ground as THE MALE a lens through which to read and re read art and art history. While hardwon and significant, these developments nonetheless pose a challenge for the male nude and for the state of maleness in gene- NUDE ral. Is it still possible, for example, for a male heterosexual artist working today to produce a male nude, other than a depiction of his own body, that is not automatically sexualised, i.e., interpreted as WHAT aggressively heterosexual, or read as a gay image? The penis is al- most entirely absent from general modern media, yet it is prevalent IS SO COR- in gay journalism. There is a strong argument that the penis has come to be associated with an aggressive stand for male dominance in the heterosexual arena, or acceptable only as a physical symbol of male sexuality RUPTING within the gay community. Our contemporary society has an obses- sion with sex and sexual images - predominately mediated through Internet pornography - so should we not be concerned by such a ABOUT onesided drive to focus on the female body and the female sexual organs? THE PENIS? One of the best examples of the inbalance between the gratuitous display of female versus male nudity in our western world, oc- curs in the hugely successful HBO series ‘Game of Thrones’. -
