  • What Is Anime?
    1 Fall 2013 565:333 Anime: Introduction to Japanese Animation M 5: 3:55pm-5:15pm (RAB-204) W 2, 3: 10:55am-1:55pm (RAB-206) Instructor: Satoru Saito Office: Scott Hall, Room 338 Office Hours: M 11:30am-1:30pm E-mail: [email protected] Course Description This course examines anime or Japanese animation as a distinctly Japanese media form that began its development in the immediate postwar period and reached maturity in the 1980s. Although some precedents will be discussed, the course’s primary emphasis is the examination of the major examples of Japanese animation from 1980s onward. To do so, we will approach this media form through two broad frameworks. First, we will consider anime from the position of media studies, considering its unique formal characteristics. Second, we will consider anime within the historical and cultural context of postwar and contemporary Japan by tracing its specific themes and characteristics, both on the level of content and consumption. The course will be taught in English, and there are no prerequisites for this course. To allow for screenings of films, one of two class meetings (Wednesdays) will be a double- period, which will combine screenings with introductory lectures. The other meeting (Mondays), by which students should have completed all the reading assignments of the week, will provide post-screening lectures and class discussions. Requirements Weekly questions, class attendance and performance 10% Four short papers (3 pages each) 40% Test 15% Final paper (8-10 pages double-spaced) 35% Weekly questions, class attendance and performance Students are expected to attend all classes and participate in class discussions.

  • Revisiting the Philosophy of Ghost in the Shell
    Mirt KOMEL* THE GHOST OUTSIDE ITS SHELL: REVISITING THE PHILOSOPHY OF GHOST IN THE SHELL Abstract. The article engages with the popular Japanese media franchise Ghost in the Shell, discerning its cultur- al aspects and influence through a philosophical reflec- tion of its main materialistic idea, namelly, the dual relationship between mind and body. The interpreta- tion is legitimazied by the fact that the author of the original manga series, Masamune Shirow, was influ- enced by Arthur Koestler’s book Ghost in the Machine, esentially a structuralist anti-Cartesian meditation. The author of the present article argues that the main under- lying materialistic idea of the ghost in the shell can be originally reinterpreted and developed further through Hegelian dialectics. Keywords: Ghost in the Shell, Japanese Manga, Cultural 920 Studies, Philosophy, Cartesian Materialism, Hegelian Dialectis Introduction Ghost in the Shell, a popular Japanese media franchise inspired by Arthur Koestler’s book The Ghost in the Machine,1 was originally written and illustrated by Masamune Shirow in 1989 as a seinen manga2 with the title 攻殻機動隊 (transliterated as Kōkaku Kidōtai, literally “Mobile Armored Riot Police”). Due to its enormous popularity the original manga and its sequels inspired several anime adaptations, starting in 1995 with the film Ghost in the Shell, then in 2002 the television series Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, in 2004 followed by another film, Ghost in the Shell: Innocence, and in 2013 by an OVA reboot (original video animation), Ghost in the Shell: Arise, and again a movie in 2015 based on the Arise series, Ghost in * Mirt Komel, Phd, Assistant Professor, Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Ljubljana.

    Contact: Kristyn Souder Communications Director Email: [email protected] Phone: (267)536-9566 PRESS RELEASE Zenkaikon Convention to Bring Anime and Science Fiction Fans to Lancaster in March Hatboro, PA – January 21, 2013: On March 22-24, 2013, Zenkaikon will hold its seventh annual convention in a new location at the Lancaster County Convention Center in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. The convention expects to welcome over two thousand fans of Japanese animation (anime), comics (manga), gaming, and science fiction to downtown Lancaster for the weekend-long event. Zenkaikon had typically been held in the Valley Forge area of Pennsylvania. However, with the conversion of the Valley Forge Convention Center to a casino and the continued growth of the event, Zenkaikon moved its convention to Lancaster. Many convention attendees don costumes of their favorite characters to attend the annual convention. Planned convention events include a variety of educational panels and workshops hosted by volunteers and guests; anime and live action screenings; a costume and skit competition (the "Masquerade"); a hall costume contest; performances by musical guests; a live action role play ("LARP") event; video game tournaments and tabletop gaming; a formal ball and informal dances; and an exhibit hall of anime-themed merchandise and handmade creations from artists. A number of Guests of Honor have already been announced for Zenkaikon 2013. John de Lancie, best known for his roles on Star Trek and Stargate SG-1, and more recently known for his role as Discord on My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, will be hosting panels and meeting attendees. Prolific voice and live action actor Richard Epcar (Ghost in the Shell, The Legend of Korra, Kingdom Hearts) and actress Ellyn Stern (Robotech, Gundam Unicorn, Bleach) will also be participating in a variety of programming.

  • Early Oshii. from Patlabor to Ghost in the Shell : a Scientist Jumped, and Became a Woman
    Early Oshii. From Patlabor to Ghost in the Shell : a scientist jumped, and became a woman. Camille Akmut January 20, 2020 Abstract Before Mamoru Oshii gained international acclaim with the 1995 Ghost in the Shell movie, he had already developed many of its themes in the two Patlabor movies (1989 and 1993, respectively). Here we introduce the first of these with a thesis (the fall of the programmer mirrors the birth of the gender- ambiguous cyborg) as well as notes from the history of computer science and technology. "Patlabor for me was a major film in many ways, and I think it became my turning point. I know I am what I am today because of Patlabor."{ he declared himself. 1 Introduction : Patlabor 1, a scientist learns to die \The scientific mission of the philosopher is to learn to die", Canguilhem told us via proxy, the Stoics, in "Life and Death". || Context for the time period of Patlabor 1 's release has already been provided, though not specifically related to it, and not entirely satisfying. For many decades, (...) the more ethnocentric characters of Japanese manga/anime pop culture were [held] too exotic to ever interest the average American. In the 1960s Japanese TV imports like Astro Boy were banished to the remotest time slots (...). A video store may have had one Kurosawa movie in its foreign section. But in the 1990s the growing hip-hop, pluralistic culture embraced Japanese cultural forms as an alternative to western iconography, creating an international street cyberpunk. Kung fu masters, samurai, and ninjas were no longer archaic historical artifacts, but cool modern conventions.

It was no longer the case where only a handful of shows would find their way across the sea into late-night or early morning cartoon blocks on American television, as it had been in the “Japanimation Era.” Anime was readily available at the click of a button, and streaming services such as Funimation, Crunchyroll, Netflix, and Hulu had anime series available in multitudes.
