    URUSEI YATSURA DISC 21, EPISODES 79 – 82 Episode 79, Story 102: The House of Mendou - Summer X'mas “The Young Master's combat-shooting skills are much improved!” - shooting instructor. Fans of Japanese cinema might notice a clever visual reference and get a good laugh - The instructor here is modeled after Tanaka Kunie, one of the most popular Japanese actors. “Hit!” - a banner held by Ataru. A trivial, visual pun here is that Ataru is holding a banner that reads “Hit!”, which is “Atari!” in Japanese. “That's the Kuroko Group's Cargocopter squadron, sir.” - Mendou's employee. “Don't panic! They're Kuroko. Think of them as a part of the background.” - Megane. The Kuroko Group (“Kuroko-gumi”) in UY has a basis in real life. In traditional Japanese theater, “kuroko” are stage assistants covered in black veils who act as invisible puppeteers, operate props or change sets, etc. They are officially invisible and not to be noticed. Historically, Kuroko evolved during the Edo period, so their speech patterns are archaic at times. “What Fireworks!”, for instance, is based on an Edo-era phrase, “Tamaya!,” which alluded to a famous fireworks shop. The main humor with these Kuroko in UY is that they perform ‘invisible’ acts in such a blatantly obvious manner! “As you know, in high school baseball tournaments, there are spring tournaments and summer tournaments.” – Kuroko. Needless to say, high school baseball tournaments are a very big thing in Japan, similar in popularity to collegiate basketball in the US. Scouts from professional teams seek new players during these events.

  • Introduction
    Notes Introduction 1 . See, for example, Mitsuhiro Yoshimoto’s review article “Anime from Akira to Princess Mononoke: Experiencing Contemporary Japanese Animation. By Susan J. Napier” in The Journal of Asian Studies , 61(2), 2002, pp. 727–729. 2 . Key texts relevant to these thinkers are as follows: Gilles Deleuze, Cinema I and Cinema II (London: Athlone Press, 1989); Jacques Ranciere, The Future of the Image (London and New York: Verso, 2007); Brian Massumi, Parables for the Virtual: Movement Affect, Sensation (Durham: Duke University Press, 2002); Slavoj Žižek, The Sublime Object of Ideology (London and New York: Verso, 1989); Steven Shaviro, The Cinematic Body (Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 1993). 3 . This is a recurrent theme in The Anime Machine – and although Lamarre has a carefully nuanced approach to the significance of technology, he ultimately favours an engagement with the specificity of the technology as the primary starting point for an analysis of the “animetic” image: see Lamarre, 2009: xxi–xxiii. 4 . For a concise summing up of this point and a discussion of the distinction between creation and “fabrication” see Collingwood, 1938: pp. 128–131. 5 . Lamarre is strident critic of such tendencies – see The Anime Machine , p. xxviii & p. 89. 6 . “Culturalism” is used here to denote approaches to artistic products and artefacts that prioritize indigenous traditions and practices as a means to explain the artistic rationale of the content. While it is a valuable exercise in contextualization, there are limits to how it can account for creative processes themselves. 7 . Shimokawa Ōten produced Imokawa Mukuzo Genkanban no Maki (The Tale of Imokawa Mukuzo the Concierge ) which was the first animated work to be shown publicly – the images were retouched on the celluloid.

  • Haruhi in Usa: a Case Study of a Japanese Anime in the United States
    HARUHI IN USA: A CASE STUDY OF A JAPANESE ANIME IN THE UNITED STATES A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Ryotaro Mihara August 2009 © 2009 Ryotaro Mihara ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Although it has been more than a decade since Japanese anime became a popular topic of conversation when discussing Japan, both within the United States and in other countries as well, few studies have empirically investigated how, and by whom, anime has been treated and consumed outside of Japan. This research thus tries to provide one possible answer to the following set of questions: What is the empirical transnationality of anime? How and by whom is anime made transnational? How is anime transnationally localized/consumed? In order to answer the questions, I investigated the trans-pacific licensing, localizing, and consuming process of the anime The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (Haruhi) from Japan to the United States by conducting fieldwork in the United States’ agencies which localized Haruhi as well as U.S. anime and Haruhi fans. The central focus of this research is the ethnography of agencies surrounding Haruhi in the United States and Japan. I assume that these agencies form a community with a distinctive culture and principles of behaviors and practices in the handling of the Haruhi anime texts. The research findings to the above questions could be briefly summarized as follows. The worldview, characters, and settings of Haruhi (i.e. a fictious world of Haruhi which is embodied and described through its anime episodes and other related products) “reduces” and “diffuses” as it is transferred on the official business track from the producers in Japan to the localizers in the United States (i.e.
