Neon Genesis Evangelion: decostruzione introspettiva del genere mecha Leonardo Barato Gendo Ikari (fotogramma da Evangelion 1.0: You Are (Not) Alone, 2007) Il punto terminale dell’evoluzione è l’auto-estinzione, la morte stessa.

Tutto ciò, unito da Studio Gainax e universalmente considerata come all’incredibile successo riscontrato sia tra il pubblico uno dei massimi capolavori dell’animazione mondiale. sia tra la critica, ha reso Evangelion a tutti gli effetti Caratterizzato da un’atmosfera mistica e criptica, l’anime simbolo degli anni ’90. nonché da riferimenti culti a religioni e filosofie, Originariamente questo articolo doveva essere Evangelion è stato in grado di far avvicinare un’intera pubblicato alla fine dell’anno scolastico 2019-2020, e generazione di giapponesi alla cultura occidentale soprattutto doveva essere di una lunghezza tale da poter e oggi, dopo oltre venticinque anni dalla sua prima essere pubblicato sulla Voce del Bruno-Franchetti. messa in onda, è ancora in grado di appassionare, Ma la voglia di scrivere e la noia da quarantena hanno sconvolgere, turbare e far parlare di sé, sviscerato agito da sole.

Thrice upon a time (2020) 1 Il cyberpunk è un importante filone della fantascienza sviluppatosi nella prima metà degli anni ’80, caratterizzato da una visione negativa del futuro e da una forte alienazione degli esseri umani e che molto si rifà alla realtà ultraurbanizza- ta, caotica e supertecnologica delle contemporanee metropoli giapponesi. Neon Genesis Evangelion non è propriamente definibile un’operacyberpunk , ma al contempo riprende molti elementi grafico-tecnologici da quest’ultimo. 4 Evangelion negli anni si è evoluto in un franchise Genesis Evangelion: date la vastità dei temi trattati, le molto esteso e che, di pari passo con la crescita della fama dimensioni e lo spessore artistico dell’opera, scrivere una della serie, ha visto il proliferare di numerosissimi sequels disamina approfondita in un unico saggio – lungo o breve e spinoffs, più o meno validi, sia ufficiali che non.

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.

  • Wolf Children
    PRESENTS WOLF CHILDREN A MAMORU HOSODA FILM Running time: 117 minutes Certificate: TBC Opens at UK cinemas on 25th October Press Contacts Elle McAtamney – [email protected] For hi-res images/production notes and more, go to – www.fetch.fm To the children, a movie like a delightful, fun fairy tale… To the youth, to make raising children, which they have yet to experience, seem full of surprises and wonder… And to the parents, to let them reminisce about their children’s growth… I am striving to make an invigorating movie that satisfies the principles of entertainment. Mamoru Hosoda Director, screenwriter, author of original story INTRODUCTION The long-awaited new film by Director Mamoru Hosoda! Yet another movie that enthralls people of all generations!! In “The Girl Who Leapt Through Time” (2006), he depicted the radiance of youth in flashing moments of life. In “SUMMER WARS” (2009), he told a story about a miracle, of how the bond between people saved Earth’s crisis, and the film swept awards domestic and abroad. Mamoru Hosoda has become the most noted animation director in the world. Why do his works appeal to people of all generations? His stories are not about the extraordinary, and they are not about superheroes. Set in towns that could really exist, the main characters are surrounded by ordinary people and are troubled by slightly unique circumstances, which they struggle to overcome. Based on well-thought-out scenarios, these real-to-life stories are made into dynamic animation. That’s why the main characters seem so familiar to us and draw our sympathy, and we get excited watching how they fare.

  • Why Fair Use Should Extend to Fan-Based Activities
    WHEN HOLDING ON MEANS LETTING GO: WHY FAIR USE SHOULD EXTEND TO FAN-BASED ACTIVITIES Nathaniel T. Noda† INTRODUCTION In a celebrated children’s song, Malvina Reynolds observes that love is “just like a magic penny, / hold it tight and you won’t have any. / Lend it, spend it, and you’ll have so many / They’ll roll all over the floor.” 1 Just as love sometimes means letting go, the doctrine of fair use recognizes that the purposes of copyright are sometimes better served by allowing certain forms of infringing activity to occur. The four-factor test for fair use, codified at 17 U.S.C. § 107, affords courts sufficient latitude to fine tune the analysis in light of changing circumstances. The recent surge of interest in anime and manga, or Japanese animation and comics, 2 brings with it distinctive examples of what may be dubbed “fan-based activities,” which indicate how courts can adapt the fair use analysis to best balance the public’s access to creative works with the interests of copyright holders. The joint popularity of anime and manga is no coincidence: the origin and evolution of manga is entwined with the origin and evolution of anime, representing a symbiosis between the † Mr. Noda is a J.D.
