15 Yakuza Etc.Pdf Meiji Gakuin Course No. 3505 Minority and Marginal Groups of Contemporary Japan Tom Gill Lecture No. 15 Yakuza, Bosozoku, far right, far left ヤクザ、暴走族、 右翼、左翼 1. Yakuza Japanese gangsters… the word derives from ya-ku-za (8-9-3), the worst hand of cards you get in Oicha-kabu a gambling game resembling Black Jack where 19 wins and 20 is bust – hence ‘worthless’ or ‘loser’… The famous full- body tattoos… which make it rather difficult to get admitted to public baths and 入 saunas： you often see the れ ‘irezumi kinshi’ (no tattoos) sign. 墨 禁 止 It’s a painful business… … but that’s the whole point. Traditional yakuza punishment Use of guns is both scary and exotic in Japan “Chinpira”: Shades, cigs, fans… … and that slightly insolent expression Lighting the boss’ cigarette … it’s a hierarchical world that yakuza inhabit. Newspapers like the Naigai Times thrive on yakuza stories The movie version: The Hiroshima Yakuza War ← Hideo Murota Bunta Sugawara → Sugawara Bunta Takakura Ken New No Nobility video + soundtrack Masaru Shiga in Semi, dir.

  • Il Nuovo Yakuza Eiga: Sviluppo E Caratteristiche Del Genere E Dei Suoi Eroi
    Corso di Laurea Magistrale in Lingue, economie e istituzioni dell’Asia e dell’Africa mediterranea Tesi di Laurea Il Nuovo yakuza eiga: sviluppo e caratteristiche del genere e dei suoi eroi Relatore Ch.ma Prof.ssa Maria Roberta Novielli Correlatore Ch.ma Prof.ssa Paola Scrolavezza Laureanda Elvira Nezi Matricola 840783 Anno Accademico 2016 / 2017 要旨 日本と同じように、イタリアでもマフィアは政治的・経済的に非常に権力のある組織であ る。マフィアが普及するにつれて、そしてお金と勢力を力ずくで手に入れていくにつれて、ますま す市民の平穏な人生と命は脅されるようになった。自分の利益のことを考え、マフィアに属し ている人達が弱い市民からお金をだまし取り、殺すと脅迫し、実際に命を奪う場合も多い。 そのため、イタリア映画に描かれているマフィアのイメージは今も昔も当然良いイメージではな い。 一方、かなり長い間にわたって日本では事実と違うヤクザのイメージが映画を通して伝え られたのは明白である。日本の暴力団はイタリアのマフィアとそれほど異なるわけではないが、 それでも１９２５年ごろから１９７０年代にわたって、ヤクザの極道者が親切で誠実な人 たちとして描かれていた。面白くて興味深いことはヤクザの構成員さえヤクザ映画の展開に 貢献したことである。ヤクザ映画を見たり、作ったりするだけではなく、ヤクザ映画で演じたこと もあるのである。例えば元ヤクザ俊藤浩滋は東映の有名なプロデューサーであった。彼がヤク ザ映画のスターになった安藤昇、高倉健、鶴田浩二をスカウトしたそうである。ちなみに安藤 昇も元ヤクザであった。 では、どうして本当のヤクザはそんな風に振舞うわけではないのに、映画には勇ましいロビ ンフッドとして描かれていたのだろう。どうして極道者であるのに観客の心を奪うことができたの だろう。映画館の観客者の大半は男性であったが、ヤクザ映画のヒーローはその男性にどんな 理想的な男性像を伝えたのだろう。ヤクザ映画は日本社会に関して何を教えているのだろう。 この卒業論文の目的は加藤泰、石井輝男、鈴木清順、深作欣二、北野武の映画を 論じながら、以上の質問の答えを出すことである。そして、ヤクザ映画の主なサブジャンルとそ れぞれのヒーローの誕生と展開を詳しく検討することである。 一般的にヤクザ映画は仁侠映画と実録映画という二つの主なサブジャンルに大きく分 けられている。この論文の核心である上述の監督がそれぞれのサブジャンルの展開に自分な りに貢献し、戦後に誕生した「新しいヤクザ映画」と言われるジャンルを有名にした。 実はもう一つのサブジャンルがあり、股旅映画と呼ばれている。股旅映画は戦前に誕生 したので、ヤクザ映画とは少し異なると言われる。しかし、ヤクザ映画を一層良く理解するた めにまず伊藤大輔や野村芳亭などという映画監督の股旅映画に関して一言述べる必要が あると思う。 旅映画は１９２０年代に誕生した剣劇、いわゆるチャンバラ（剣の音を表す言葉） のサブジャンルである（剣劇は有名な時代劇のサブジャンルである）。股旅映画は時代劇 と違い、主人公が侍ではなく、股旅物と呼ばれているヤクザヒーローであった。この渡世人が 一人で放浪し、あちこち行き先のない旅行をしていた。知らない親分に宿泊を請い、様々な

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Whisper of the Heart by Aoi Hiiragi Whisper of the Heart Remains Studio Ghibli’S Most Moving Outlier
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Whisper of the Heart by Aoi Hiiragi Whisper of the Heart remains Studio Ghibli’s most moving outlier. The first and only film from Miyazaki protégé Yoshifumi Kondo stands among the studio’s best works. T wenty five years after its release in Japan, Studio Ghibli’s first theatrical film not directed by either of its co-founders, Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata, stands among its very best. Based on the 1989 manga of the same name by Aoi Hiiragi, Whisper of the Heart is every bit as soulful and thoughtful as the work of director Yoshifumi Kondo’s mentors. It’s said that Kondo would have been their successor, but tragically the animator died from illness in 1998. Written for the screen by Miyazaki, the film observes teenage girl Shizuku (Yoko Gonna) living in Tama Hills in Tokyo. When we meet her, an unknown boy Seiji has taken out 3 of the same books as her, and her imagination begins to whir – what is Seiji like? The curiosity spurs her on to look for him, and she soon finds his grandfather Shiro’s shop, and with it inspiration to start creating her own work. From its opening, Whisper of the Heart’s romantic view of the city at night already strikes a different tone to previous Ghibli films, which often concern man’s encroachment on nature’s territory. Swooning cuts of blimps, pylons and other evidence of human connection overtake views of forests and open landscapes, with soundscapes of cicadas, trains and cars mixed with classical and electronic notes from composer Yuji Nomi (a mentee of Ryuchi Sakamato).

  • Wolf Children
    PRESENTS WOLF CHILDREN A MAMORU HOSODA FILM Running time: 117 minutes Certificate: TBC Opens at UK cinemas on 25th October Press Contacts Elle McAtamney – [email protected] For hi-res images/production notes and more, go to – www.fetch.fm To the children, a movie like a delightful, fun fairy tale… To the youth, to make raising children, which they have yet to experience, seem full of surprises and wonder… And to the parents, to let them reminisce about their children’s growth… I am striving to make an invigorating movie that satisfies the principles of entertainment. Mamoru Hosoda Director, screenwriter, author of original story INTRODUCTION The long-awaited new film by Director Mamoru Hosoda! Yet another movie that enthralls people of all generations!! In “The Girl Who Leapt Through Time” (2006), he depicted the radiance of youth in flashing moments of life. In “SUMMER WARS” (2009), he told a story about a miracle, of how the bond between people saved Earth’s crisis, and the film swept awards domestic and abroad. Mamoru Hosoda has become the most noted animation director in the world. Why do his works appeal to people of all generations? His stories are not about the extraordinary, and they are not about superheroes. Set in towns that could really exist, the main characters are surrounded by ordinary people and are troubled by slightly unique circumstances, which they struggle to overcome. Based on well-thought-out scenarios, these real-to-life stories are made into dynamic animation. That’s why the main characters seem so familiar to us and draw our sympathy, and we get excited watching how they fare.

  • Asian Extreme As Cult Cinema: the Transnational Appeal of Excess and Otherness Jessica Anne Hughes BA English and Film Studies
    Asian Extreme as Cult Cinema: The Transnational Appeal of Excess and Otherness Jessica Anne Hughes BA English and Film Studies, Wilfrid Laurier University MA Film Studies, University of British Columbia A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2016 School of Communications and Arts Hughes 2 Abstract This thesis investigates the way Western audiences respond to portrayals of excess and otherness in Japanese Extreme cinema. It explores the way a recent (2006-2016) cycle of Japanese Splatter (J-Splatter) films, including The Machine Girl (Noboru Iguchi, 2008) and Tokyo Gore Police (Yoshihiro Nishimura, 2008), have been positioned as cult due to their over-the-top representations of violence and stereotypes of Japanese culture. Phenomenological research and personal interviews interrogate Western encounters with J-Splatter films at niche film festivals and on DVD and various online platforms through independent distributors. I argue that these films are marketed to particular Western cult audiences using vocabulary and images that highlight the exotic nature of globally recognised Japanese cultural symbols such as schoolgirls and geisha. This thesis analyses J-Splatter’s transnational, cosmopolitan appeal using an approach informed by the work of Ernest Mathijs and Jamie Sexton, Matt Hills, Henry Jenkins, and Iain Robert Smith, who read the relationship between Western audiences and international cult cinema as positive and meaningful cultural interactions, demonstrating a desire to engage in more global experiences. The chapters in this thesis use textual analysis of J-Splatter films and case studies of North American and Australian film festivals and distribution companies, which include interviews with festival directors and distributors, to analyse the nature of the appeal of J- Splatter to Western audiences.

  • Bitcoin and the Japanese Retail Investor
    BITCOIN AND THE JAPANESE RETAIL INVESTOR by Maksym Grinenko Graduate Programme for Transcultural Studies eighth generation Heidelberg University A dissertation submitted in fulfllment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Harald Fuess Prof. Dr. Hans Martin Krämer July 29, 2019 Abstract The objective of this research is to examine the Bitcoin rally of 2017 as it occurred in Japan and establish a greater context for why it was the Japanese retail investors that propelled the nation to being the largest trader of the cryptocurrency at the end of the year. This dissertation begins with the examination of the technical and economical properties of Bitcoin by classifying it as fulflling two roles: that of a means of payment and that of an investment commodity. Following that is a description of Bitcoin’s roots and the history of its non-speculative usage. These chapters serve as a base for examin- ing the cryptocurrency’s role in Japan. The third chapter examines the Japanese retail investor and the Japanese retail investment landscape with a focus on the question of the low rates of risk-asset participation in face of a favorable investment environment. Historical context is drawn upon to argue that the present situation, wherein most fnan- cial assets are kept as cash, is rather the result of the historical path dependence than the present-day conditions in which Japanese retail investors operate. The fnal chapter addresses the question of high-risk activities in the form of gambling and margin trading by a group of predominantly middle-aged men and connects this propensity to engage in zero-sum games with Bitcoin’s success in Japan.
