Why I Hate Asuka Langley-Sohryu Why I Hate Asuka Langley-Sohryu Alright. In regards to my writing, I've had people calling me out on the treatment of a certain character. Now you see this girl right here? Her name is Asuka Langley-Sohryu, and I hate her. She is, in my honest opinion, one of the worst characters in the anime Neon Genesis Evangelion. And after all of the criticisms I've gotten for the treatment of her character, my less than flattering depictions of her, I've decided that enough is enough. I'm going to come out and explain to everyone precisely why I hate her, I think she's a horrible excuse for a human being, and that she doesn't deserve to be treated like some divine goddess who can do no wrong the way so many people seemed inclined to do. Now keep in mind that I'm referring to the anime version of Asuka. Not the Rebuild version or any of the versions from the various manga. The original red-haired terror that appeared in the original 26 episode length Evangelion series. Also, I'm going to be careful in my terminology. Not everyone who reads this will know everything about Evangelion, so I'm going to do my best not to confuse anyone with this narrative. You got that? Great, let's get on then. The Defenses of Asuka Now before I move on to explain exactly why I hate Asuka, I think it would be prudent for me to take a moment to explain why so many people think that she should be pitied and go out of their way to defend her. The big reason that people sympathize with Asuka is because there is indeed a traumatic element to her past. Asuka's mother, one Kyoko Zeppelin-Sohryu, was a brilliant scientist working in Germany. She was something of a workaholic as I understand it, but she did love her daughter. I don't have as much information on Asuka's father, but from what I understand, he didn't want children. He wasn't the warmest of people, that's for sure. When Asuka was four years old, Kyoko participated in an experiment that left her insane. From that point on, she couldn't recognize Asuka as her daughter. She instead thought that one of Asuka's dolls was Asuka herself, and would tell the doll to ignore "that girl over there". Now as best as I've been able to determine, during this time, Asuka's father initiated an affair with a doctor who was working at the hospital where Asuka's mother was. In fact, they even "did the deed" in the room next to Kyoko's. And on top of that, Kyoko eventually committed suicide by hanging herself. In addition to this, she destroyed the doll that she thought was her daughter. Sadly, Asuka found the dead body and the doll, and on the day she had gone to give her mother some good news. In the wake of Kyoko's suicide, Asuka's father married the doctor he had been having an affair with. Asuka was unable and unwilling to connect with her stepmother, who in turn was repelled by how defensive and self- isolating Asuka was, and was unable to connect with her. And after the funeral, Asuka decided that she needed to take care of herself from that moment forward, and promised herself that she would never cry again. She has since repressed her emotions and the damage caused by Kyoko's insanity and suicide. This coupled with her doing everything she could to be strong and independent, as well as pilot training and graduating college before she was even fourteen, essentially skipping her childhood, has not done her mental state any favors. On top of this, by the start of Evangelion, she's going through puberty. And I'm sure most of you have some not fun memories of that time. As a result, she's sexually frustrated and dealing with a great of emotional upheaval. Not a good place to be, I admit. And that's not even going into all of the crap that goes down during the actual series. Which wasn't kind to Asuka. That, as I understand it, is the most concrete reason people sympathize with and defend Asuka. Furthermore, there are those who feel that she's lively and exciting. Probably feel that she better fits the role of a protagonist in a giant robot anime. And I'm sure there are plenty of those who just go, "Ooh, hot redhead. She couldn't do anything wrong", as well as the Draco in Leather Pants crowd. But that's another discussion altogether. Alright. I've gone over a brief explanation as to why people sympathize with Asuka, and why I think people like and defend her. Now to move on my counters to these defenses, as well as explaining exactly why I hate Asuka so freaking much. How I Came to Hate Asuka Now I'm going to start explaining why I hate Asuka by first going over how I came to hate her in the first place. And for that, I'm going to cover the first two episodes of Evangelion, by the end of which I hated her with a passion. I'm going to going into great detail here, and hopefully what I have to say here will make sense. So let's begin with Asuka's debut; Episode 8, "Asuka Strikes". Now we had had hints dropped as to Asuka's arrival before this episode. We saw a third pilot in the opening credits, and in the previous episode, we hear about the arrival of a third Evangelion mecha and its pilot. So this didn't come out of nowhere. And I was admittedly curious to see what our new pilot would be like. Now as I said before, this will be a detailed analysis of this episode, Asuka's actions within, and my reactions to them. So I will be getting wordy here. When the episode begins, four recurring characters (Shinji Ikari, Misato Katsuragi, Toji Suzuhara, and Kensuka Aida) are flying out to meet the Pacific Fleet, which is transporting both Asuka and Unit 02 to Japan. Our first glimpse of Asuka is in silhouette, where she's standing with her hands on a railing, apparently watching the helicopter descend. Shortly after, we cut to a scene of Shinji, Misato, Toji, and Kensuke walking along the top of the aircraft carrier, the Over the Rainbow. Toji is busy chasing his hat, and is not being the least bit inconspicuous about it. Soon enough, the hat blows up against Asuka's foot and stops. Now, if I'd in been Asuka's position, I'd have done one of two things. 1: I would have done the courteous thing and reach down, pick up the hat, and have returned to Toji. Probably would have said something about being more careful, or just gone, "here you go". Something along those lines. Or 2: I would have just stood there because Toji was about to bend down and pick the hat up himself. Those are two things that I'd have done. So what does Asuka do? She waits for Toji to start reaching for his hat right before deliberately stepping on it. Now no one can tell me that Asuka didn't notice Toji chasing the hat. He was crying out for someone to stop it and was being very obvious about it. And when you get to the fact that he was standing right in front of him, I completely fail to see how she could have not noticed him. And yet, she still stepped on his hat before he could reclaim it. And then proceeds to completely ignore Toji as he tries to pull the hat out from under her. This was the moment that…well, I wouldn't say that I started hating her right then and there. But I will say that it was her first strike. There was no reason for Asuka to step on Toji's hat. She just did it because she could. It was a pointless bit of cruelty on her part, and like I said, this was the first strike against her. The first thing that said to me, "I'm not going to like this person." Then Misato and Asuka have the following exchange: Asuka: "Well…hello, Misato! How have you been?" Misato: "Just fine. Goodness, you've grown some, haven't you?" Asuka: "Uh-huh! And I'm not just taller; my figure's filled out as well!" Alright. First thing I should mention is that Toji is still trying to get his hat back. Some people might find that sort of thing funny, but I don't. Next, Asuka is just seeing someone for the first time in…how long? And one of the first things she says after greeting Misato was to boast about her bust size. There we have it. Strike 2 against Asuka. It's nowhere near as bad as the first one, but that bit of bravado and the tone with which it was delivered, all while completely ignoring Toji and keeping his hat under foot…this was the second big hint that I wouldn't like Asuka. And I think that it's really telling that Asuka has two strikes against her…and we haven't even seen her face yet in the series proper! But don't worry, Asuka won't be long in earning that third strike.

  • 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 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.

  • 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.
