The Dissemination and Localization of Anime in China: Case Study on the Chinese Mobile Video Game Onmyoji
The dissemination and localization of anime in China: Case study on the Chinese mobile video game Onmyoji Wuqian Qian The Department of Asian, Middle Eastern and Turkish Studies Master Program in Asian Studies, 120 hp Autumn term 2016 Supervisor: Jaqueline Berndt English title: Professor Abstract In the 2017 Chinese Gaming Industry Report, a new type of video games called 二次 元 game is noted as a growing force in the game industry. Onmyoji is one of those games produced by Netease and highly popular with over 200 million registered players in China alone. 二次元 games are characterized by Japanese-language dubbing and anime style in character design. However, Onmyoji uses also Japanese folklore, which raises two questions: one is why Netease chose to make such a 二次元 game, the other why a Chinese game using Japanese folklore is so popular among Chinese players. The attractiveness of an exotic culture may help to explain the latter, but it does not work for the first. Thus, this thesis implements a media studies perspective in order to substantiate its hypothesis that it is the dissemination of anime in China that has made Onmyoji possible and successful. Unlike critics who regard anime as an imported product from Japan which is different from domestic Chinese animation and impairs its development, this study pays attention to the interrelation between media platforms and viewer (or user) demographics, and it explores the positive influence of Japanese anime on the Chinese creative industry, implying the feasibility of anime or 二次元 products to be created in other countries than Japan. -
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. -

Chinese Calligraphy Sijin Chen and Hongfei Finley Zhang CHINA Calligraphy Is the Quintessence of Chinese Culture
Chinese Calligraphy Sijin Chen and Hongfei Finley Zhang CHINA Calligraphy is the quintessence of Chinese culture. It was first used to record events and what people wanted to say. In writing, people strive to make the scripts look beautiful and elegant. To meet special needs, they are written in artistic styles. The writing of Chinese characters has been developed into a special high-level art. Chinese calligraphy has flourished for several thousand years. Like painting, sculpture, poetry, music, dance, and opera, it is a full member of the family of the arts. Oracle Script Bronze Script Large Seal Small Seal Clerical Script Cursive Script Brush The brush is the traditional writing implement in Chinese calligraphy. The body of the brush can be made from bamboo, or rarer materials such as red sandalwood, glass, ivory, silver or gold. Calligraphy brushes are considered as an extension of the calligrapher’s arm. Today, a pen may be used. Ink and Inkstick The ink is made from lampblack (soot) and binders, and comes in inksticks which must be rubbed with water on an ink stone until the right consistency is achieved. Cheaper, pre-mixed bottled inks are now available, but these are used primarily for practice as stick inks are considered higher quality and chemical inks are more prone to bleeding over time, making them less suitable for use in hanging scrolls. Learning to rub the ink is an essential part of calligraphy study. Traditionally, Chinese calligraphy is written only in black ink, but modern calligraphers sometimes use other colours. Calligraphy teachers use a bright orange or red ink with which they write practice characters for students to trace, or to correct students’ work. -
Anime in America, Disney in Japan: the Global Exchange of Popular Media Visualized Through Disney’S “Stitch”
Anime in America, Disney in Japan: The Global Exchange of Popular Media Visualized through Disney’s “Stitch” Nicolette Lucinda Pisha Asheville, North Carolina Bachelor of Arts, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, 2008 A Thesis presented to the Graduate Faculty of the College^oEWilliam and Mary in Candidacy for the Degree of Master of Arts American Studies Program The College of William and Mary January, 2010 APPROVAL PAGE This Thesis is submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts NicoletteAucinda Pisha Approved ®y the £r, 2009 Associate Professor Arthur Knight, American Studies and English The College of William and Mary,, Visiting Assistant Professor Timothy Barnard, American Studies The College of William and Mary Assistant Professor Hiroshi Kitamura, History The College of William and Mary ABSTRACT PAGE My thesis examines the complexities of Disney’s Stitch character, a space alien that appeals to both American and Japanese audiences. The substitutive theory of Americanization is often associated with the Disney Company’s global expansion; however, my work looks at this idea as multifaceted. By focusing on the Disney Company’s relationship with the Japanese consumer market, I am able to provide evidence of instances when influence from the local Japanese culture appears in both Disney animation and products. For example, Stitch contains many of the same physical characteristics found in both Japanese anime and manga characters, and a small shop selling local Japanese crafts is located inside the Tokyo Disneyland theme park. I completed onsite research at Tokyo Disneyland and learned about city life in Tokyo. -
Spatial Encounters of Fantasy and Punishment in the Deadman Wonderland Anime
Online Journal of Art and Design volume 3, issue 3, 2015 Spatial Encounters of Fantasy and Punishment in the Deadman Wonderland Anime Dr. Deniz Balık DokuzEylül University, Faculty of Architecture, Department of Architecture [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper intends to contribute to the interdisciplinary studies of architectural discourse and anime as an art form.Being not limited to pure visual aesthetics and entertainment per se, anime narratives engage with theory by using characters and architectural spaces as a means to make social, political, and philosophical critique. As a case study, this paper focuses on the Japanese anime series Deadman Wonderland (2011), and argues that the architectural design in this anime is a deliberate maneuver to intensify the intended connotations and symbolic meanings, rather than being merely casual background settings and enrichments for the narrative. It is indicated that the anime uses the particular motif of amusement park as the primary metaphor of fantasy, and the specific motif of prison as the ideal metaphor of punishment.Drawing close associations with the views of Michel Foucault, Jean Baudrillard, and Louis Marin, this paper uses the narratives of prison and amusement park as a tool tounfoldthe concepts of power relations, social anxiety, uncanny, repression of trauma and memory. Keywords: Architectural design, anime, cinematic narrative, amusement park, prison, Tokyo. INTRODUCTION Within the context of cinematic fiction and image, architecture plays a major role in transferring the narrative to audience in various scales, ranging from a city silhouette to an interior space design. Architecture contributes to cinematic atmosphere, as it helps the audience to be absorbed into the frames of space/time. -
