  • Representations and Reality: Defining the Ongoing Relationship Between Anime and Otaku Cultures By: Priscilla Pham
    Representations and Reality: Defining the Ongoing Relationship between Anime and Otaku Cultures By: Priscilla Pham Submitted to OCAD University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Contemporary Art, Design, and New Media Art Histories Toronto, Ontario, Canada, April 2021 © Priscilla Pham, 2021 Abstract This major research paper investigates the ongoing relationship between anime and otaku culture through four case studies; each study considers a single situation that demonstrates how this relationship changes through different interactions with representation. The first case study considers the early transmedia interventions that began to engage fans. The second uses Takashi Murakami’s theory of Superflat to connect the origins of the otaku with the interactions otaku have with representation. The third examines the shifting role of the otaku from that of consumer to producer by means of engagement with the hierarchies of perception, multiple identities, and displays of sexualities in the production of fan-created works. The final case study reflects on the 2.5D phenomenon, through which 2D representations are brought to 3D environments. Together, these case studies reveal the drivers of the otaku evolution and that the anime–otaku relationship exists on a spectrum that teeters between reality and representation. i Acknowledgements I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my primary advisor, Ala Roushan, for her continued support and confidence in my writing throughout this paper’s development. Her constructive advice, constant guidance, and critical insights helped me form this paper. Thank you to Dr. David McIntosh, my secondary reader, for his knowledge on anime and the otaku world, which allowed me to change my perspective of a world that I am constantly lost in.

Sarjaa on tutkittu ennenkin mutta tekijä Yoshiyuki Tominon pääteemasta ei ole tehty merkittävää tutkimusta. Tässä tutkimuksessa analysoidaan Yoshiyuki Tominon omin sanoin kuvaavaa teemaa; ’aikuiset ovat vihollisia.’ Sarjan tarina sijoittuu sci-fi tulevaisuuteen, jossa ihmiset ovat rakentaneet siirtokuntia avaruuteen Maan ympärille. Tarinan konflikti kertoo sodasta joka on syttynyt avaruudessa ja Maassa asuvien ihmisten välillä. Tarinan suurin vaikutus omalla ajallaan oli näyttää todenmukaista sodankäyntiä, jossa kumpikaan osapuoli sodassa ei ollut hyvä eikä paha. Tarinan päähenkilöt koostuvat nuorista henkilöistä jotka joutuvat ottamaan osaa sotaan vastoin heidän tahtoaan. Käytän aineistolähtöistä analyysia tuodakseni esiin toistuvia teemoja tarinassa
