  • Uchitama?! Have You Seen My Tama? Joins Aniplex of America’S Winter 2020 Line-Up
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DECEMBER 24, 2019 Uchitama?! Have you seen my Tama? Joins Aniplex of America’s Winter 2020 Line-Up ©Sony Creative Products Inc./Project UchiTama?! Take a peek into the purr-fectly delightful lives of Tama and his friends SANTA MONICA, CA (DECEMBER 24, 2019) – Aniplex of America is pleased to announce that Uchitama?! Have you seen my Tama? has joined its winter 2020 anime line-up and will begin streaming on FunimationNow starting January 9th and then on Crunchyroll starting February 8th. In this joint production by MAPPA (Yuri!! on Ice, Kakegurui) and Lapintrack (Sarazanmai, Endride), viewers will get a charming glimpse into the lives of a group of cats and dogs inhabiting a quaint neighborhood on Third Street. Based on the characters from the beloved “Tama & Friends: Have you seen my Tama?” series, which was first introduced in 1983 and made famous on stationery and accessories, Uchitama?! is a new take on a long-established set of characters as the animals take on a human form for the first time ever. The series stars Soma Saito (Katsugeki TOUKEN RANBU, ALDNOAH.ZERO) as Tama, the curious pet cat owned by the Okamoto family, and Kensho Ono (Kuroko’s Basketball, ReLIFE) as Pochi, the skittish white dog from the local tofu store and Tama’s best friend. They are joined by fellow felines Tora, the tabby cat from a construction company voiced by Yusuke Shirai (IDOLiSH7, Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE!), Momo, the prim white cat from the local café voiced by Kana Hanazawa (Cells at Work!, Nisekoi), and Nora, the intelligent yet aloof stray cat voiced by Yuki Kaji (Attack on Titan, My Hero Academia).

  • How Japanese Comic Books Influence Taiwanese Students A
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Reading Comic Books Critically: How Japanese Comic Books Influence Taiwanese Students A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Education by Fang-Tzu Hsu 2015 © Copyright by Fang-Tzu Hsu 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Reading Comic Books Critically: How Japanese Comic Books Influence Taiwanese Students by Fang-Tzu Hsu Doctor of Philosophy in Education University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Professor Carlos A. Torres, Chair Education knows no boundaries but hot button topics, like comic books, demonstrate school, teacher and parent limitations. Japanese comic books (manga) are a litmus test of pedagogical tolerance. Because they play an important role in the lives of most Taiwanese teenagers, I give them pride of place in this dissertation. To understand Japanese comic books and their influence, I use Paulo Freire’s critical pedagogy to combine perspectives from cultural studies, comparative education, and educational sociology. With the cooperation of the administration, faculty and students of a Taiwanese junior high school, I used surveys, a textual analysis of five student-selected titles and interviews with students and educators. I discovered that Japanese manga contain complex and sometimes contradictory ideologies of ethnicity, gender, class, and violence. From an ethnic perspective, although students may glean cultural content from manga heroes and their retinues, people of color and non-Japanese Asians are either caricatures or non-existent; although Taiwanese teenager readers seem unaware of this. From a gender standpoint, neither the female characters’ provocative representation nor the male characters’ slavering responses to it raise students’ and teachers’ concerns.

  • Written by Leading Experts on Japanese Sport
    “Written by leading experts on Japanese sport and society, this is the perfect guide for anyone – sports fan, tourist, or armchair viewer – wanting to know the inside story about the Games and Japan in the 21st century.” Packed with information about the city, Olympic sports, and wider social issues in Japan, the book provides snapshots, in a pocket-sized form, of the essential background to the Olympics in 2020. John Horne, Waseda University, Japan “This is the first – and possibly only – book which explains contemporary Japan through the prism of the Olympics and the Olympics through the lens of Japanese society. Full of fascinating insights and information, it is sure to become a bible for anyone intending to attend (or even just watch) the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo. Definitely a winner.” Roger Goodman, University of Oxford, UK “There is much more on the line at the 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympics than the competition among the athletes. The impacts of the Games them- selves, and their lead-up and legacy, will be equally portentous for Tokyo and for Japan. This comprehensive collection by experienced Japan researchers offers highly informative and smartly written commentaries on the social, political, and economic ramifications of Tokyo 2020. Urban infrastructure, regional disparities, food sustainability, school curriculum, political jockeying, LGBTQ rights, and language diversity are just some of the topics surveyed in these absorbing essays. This is an essential briefing for anyone wishing to know what is at stake as Tokyo hosts this global sporting mega-event.” William W. Kelly, Yale University, USA “This book is the perfect companion for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
