In the United States this growth has been based on copyright infringement, where fans have subtitled anime series and released them as fansubs. In the absence of official releases fansubs have created the current popularity of anime, which companies can now benefit from. From the beginning the companies have tolerated and even encouraged the fan activity, partly because the fans have followed their own rules, intended to stop the distribution of fansubs after official licensing. The work explores the history and current situation of fansubs, and seeks to explain how these practices adopted by fans have arisen, why both fans and companies accept them and act according to them, and whether the situation is sustainable. Keywords: Japanese animation, anime, fansub, copyright, piracy Tiivistelmä Piratismia vai tuottavuutta: laittomat toimintatavat animen fanikäännöksissä Japanilaisen animaation eli animen suosio maailmalla on lyhyessä ajassa kasvanut räjähdysmäisesti. Tämä kasvu on Yhdysvalloissa perustunut tekijänoikeuksien rikkomiseen, missä fanit ovat tekstittäneet animesarjoja itse ja julkaisseet ne fanikäännöksinä. Virallisten julkaisujen puutteessa fanikäännökset ovat luoneet animen nykyisen suosion, jota yhtiöt voivat nyt hyödyntää. Yhtiöt ovat alusta asti sietäneet ja jopa kannustaneet fanien toimia, osaksi koska fanit ovat noudattaneet omia sääntöjään, joiden on tarkoitus estää fanikäännösten levitys virallisen lisensoinnin jälkeen.

    i TEAM JAPAN: THEMES OF ‘JAPANESENESS’ IN MASS MEDIA SPORTS NARRATIVES A Dissertation submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Michael Plugh July 2015 Examining Committee Members: Fabienne Darling-Wolf, Advisory Chair, Media and Communication Doctoral Program Nancy Morris, Media and Communication Doctoral Program John Campbell, Media and Communication Doctoral Program Lance Strate, External Member, Fordham University ii © Copyright 2015 by MichaelPlugh All Rights Reserved iii Abstract This dissertation concerns the reproduction and negotiation of Japanese national identity at the intersection between sports, media, and globalization. The research includes the analysis of newspaper coverage of the most significant sporting events in recent Japanese history, including the 2014 Koshien National High School Baseball Championships, the awarding of the People’s Honor Award, the 2011 FIFA Women’s World Cup, wrestler Hakuho’s record breaking victories in the sumo ring, and the bidding process for the 2020 Olympic Games. 2054 Japanese language articles were examined by thematic analysis in order to identify the extent to which established themes of “Japaneseness” were reproduced or renegotiated in the coverage. The research contributes to a broader understanding of national identity negotiation by illustrating the manner in which established symbolic boundaries are reproduced in service of the nation, particularly via mass media. Furthermore, the manner in which change is negotiated through processes of assimilation and rejection was considered through the lens of hybridity theory. iv To my wife, Ari, and my children, Hiroto and Mia.

    Japanese Animation Guide: the History of Robot Anime

    Commissioned by Japan's Agency for Cultural Affairs Manga, Animation, Games, and Media Art Information Bureau Japanese Animation Guide: The History of Robot Anime Compiled by Mori Building Co., Ltd. 2013 Commissioned by Japan's Agency for Cultural Affairs Manga, Animation, Games, and Media Art Information Bureau Japanese Animation Guide: The History of Robot Anime Compiled by Mori Building Co., Ltd. 2013 Addition to the Release of this Report This report on robot anime was prepared based on information available through 2012, and at that time, with the exception of a handful of long-running series (Gundam, Macross, Evangelion, etc.) and some kiddie fare, no original new robot anime shows debuted at all. But as of today that situation has changed, and so I feel the need to add two points to this document. At the start of the anime season in April of 2013, three all-new robot anime series debuted. These were Production I.G.'s “Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet," Sunrise's “Valvrave the Liberator," and Dogakobo and Orange's “Majestic Prince of the Galactic Fleet." Each was broadcast in a late-night timeslot and succeeded in building fanbases. The second new development is the debut of the director Guillermo Del Toro's film “Pacific Rim," which was released in Japan on August 9, 2013. The plot involves humanity using giant robots controlled by human pilots to defend Earth’s cities from gigantic “kaiju.” At the end of the credits, the director dedicates the film to the memory of “monster masters” Ishiro Honda (who oversaw many of the “Godzilla” films) and Ray Harryhausen (who pioneered stop-motion animation techniques.) The film clearly took a great deal of inspiration from Japanese robot anime shows.
  • 1 BAB I PENDAHULUAN 1.1 Latar Belakang Penelitian Menurut

    1 BAB I PENDAHULUAN 1.1 Latar Belakang Penelitian Menurut

    BAB I PENDAHULUAN 1.1 Latar Belakang Penelitian Menurut Stewart L Tubbs “Budaya adalah suatu cara hidup yang berkembang dan dimiliki bersama oleh sebuah kelompok orang dan diwariskan dari generasi ke generasi. Budaya terbentuk dari banyak unsur yang rumit, termasuk sistem agama dan politik, adat istiadat, bahasa, perkakas, pakaian, bangunan, dan karya seni.” (1996:84) Dari pernyataan Stewart dapat disimpulkan bahwa budaya tidak lagi terkait dengan hal-hal yang berada di pedesaan yang berbau tradisional. Saat ini fenomena budaya sudah mulai bergerak ke wilayah urban, dan salah satu bentuk dari kebudayaan urban adalah film. Film sendiri bisa dikatakan sebuah budaya karena industri film telah ada sejak tahun 1927 dan bertahan diwarsikan hingga saat ini. Film juga mengandung unsur-unsur rumit yang telah dijabarkan oleh Stewart. Lebih lanjut, Sumarno menyatakan bahwa “film adalah bagian dari kehidupan modern dan tersedia dalam berbagai wujud. Film bukan saja menyajikan pengalaman yang mengasyikan melainkan juga pengalaman hidup sehari-hari yang dikemas secara menarik dan dengan memasukan beragam budaya ke dalam film tersebut” (1996: 22). Salah satu genre dari film yang paling sering dijumpai adalah serial drama. Serial drama adalah program yang hampir selalu ada dalam media televisi di berbagai negara di belahan dunia. Serial drama di berbagai negara di berbagai belahan dunia inipun memiliki ciri khas masing-masing yang tidak dimiliki oleh serial drama di negara lain. Diantaranya adalah drama Korea yang memiliki alur drama percintaan yang sulit ditebak, Kawasan Amerika Latin yang menonjolkan karakter wanita yang sangat kuat seperti Betty La Fea dan Esmeralda, India dengan drama Bollywood yang menjadikan tarian dan nyanyian sebagai ciri khas nya, Indonesia dengan sinetron yang memili alur yang berputar-putar dan ringan serta, serta Jepang dengan tokusatsu yang mengguanakan teknik-teknik tertentu 1 dalam vidiografinya dan masih banyak lagi yang tidak bisa penulis sebutkan satu persatu.
