  • The Formation of Temporary Communities in Anime Fandom: a Story of Bottom-Up Globalization ______
    THE FORMATION OF TEMPORARY COMMUNITIES IN ANIME FANDOM: A STORY OF BOTTOM-UP GLOBALIZATION ____________________________________ A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of California State University, Fullerton ____________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Geography ____________________________________ By Cynthia R. Davis Thesis Committee Approval: Mark Drayse, Department of Geography & the Environment, Chair Jonathan Taylor, Department of Geography & the Environment Zia Salim, Department of Geography & the Environment Summer, 2017 ABSTRACT Japanese animation, commonly referred to as anime, has earned a strong foothold in the American entertainment industry over the last few decades. Anime is known by many to be a more mature option for animation fans since Western animation has typically been sanitized to be “kid-friendly.” This thesis explores how this came to be, by exploring the following questions: (1) What were the differences in the development and perception of the animation industries in Japan and the United States? (2) Why/how did people in the United States take such interest in anime? (3) What is the role of anime conventions within the anime fandom community, both historically and in the present? These questions were answered with a mix of historical research, mapping, and interviews that were conducted in 2015 at Anime Expo, North America’s largest anime convention. This thesis concludes that anime would not have succeeded as it has in the United States without the heavy involvement of domestic animation fans. Fans created networks, clubs, and conventions that allowed for the exchange of information on anime, before Japanese companies started to officially release anime titles for distribution in the United States.

Even though shes with Night, Toshiki seizes the opportunity to steal a kiss from Riiko. I like this series, but it isnt my favorite. The plot line is simple, and there arent too many twists or turns, but it still keeps you engaged. I dont recommend this for people under the age of 13 because of its many sexual situations. Theres a whole plot arc dedicated to intercourse so, I dont think itd be right for someone young to read it. However, it does make for some hilarious turns of events and funny situations. This is a really cute series! Sometimes its just a little awkward to read. Over all, I believe this book does meet my expectations, just because it is so humorous at times! This series isnt really like any other series Ive read, and I discovered this about one year ago. Absolute Boyfriend, Vol. 4 in Comics and Graphic Novels pdf books Absolute Boyfriend, Vol.

  • The Supreme Court of the United States, Trade Mark Law, And
    School for Scandal: the Supreme Court of the United States, Trade Mark Law, and Freedom of Speech in the Age of Trump Matthew Rimmer The Supreme Court of the United States ruling in Matal v. Tam in 2017 over the Oregon rock group The Slants sets down a landmark precedent in respect of trade mark law, racism, bigotry, disparagement, and freedom of speech.1 The ruling also larger implications and ramifications for the protection of Indigenous intellectual property – both in respect of the contentious Washington Redskins trademark, and more generally. This case note considers the twin trade mark conflicts over the Slants and the Washington Redskins in the United States. It questions the reasoning of the Supreme Court of the United States ruling in Matal v. Tam, raising questions about its coherence and its consistency. It contends that the Supreme Court of the United States ruling is an exceptional one, which would not be easily translated to other jurisdictions such as Australia, New Zealand, and Canada. 1. The Slants The factual scenario of the dispute in Matal v. Tam is an unusual one.2 Alito J observed of the nature of the dispute: This case concerns a dance-rock band’s application for federal trademark registration of the band’s name, “The Slants.” “Slants” is a derogatory term for persons of Asian descent, and members of the 1 Matal v. Tam 137 S. Ct 1744 (2017) 2 Matal v. Tam 137 S. Ct 1744 (2017) 1 band are Asian–Americans. But the band members believe that by taking that slur as the name of their group, they will help to “reclaim” the term and drain its denigrating force.
