  • Manga, Wuxia and (New) Religious Syncretisms: the Orientalization of The
    http://jrmdc.com Manga, Wuxia and (New) Religious Syncretisms: the Orientalization of the Western Imaginary, from Osamu Tezuka to Contemporary Oriental Disciplines Alessandro Porrovecchio (University of the Littoral Opal Coast, France) Abstract A new interest in various forms of spirituality and religiosity is emerging in some subcultures of contemporary society. This tendency can be seen as an indicator of an Orientalization process that affects everyday life and lifestyles, and it can be read as a symptom of a crisis in the paradigm of Western Modernity, which is changing the relationship between culture and nature, the central role played by the rational positivist paradigm, and ideas of body, space and time. Oriental disciplines and martial arts are a significant case study for the purpose of analyzing the on- going Orientalization process. These highly ritualized practices have become part of many people’s daily life and have affected their way of dressing, as well as the way they arrange furniture at home and the way they make decisions that involve their diet and body care. These practices may also affect people’s identities by changing their values, ethics and morality. To explore the Orientalization process, I first introduce some features of the diffusion of the “mythical Orients” in the Western imaginary since the sixties. In particular, I focus on some media products (for example, mangas and wuxia movies) that played an important role in arousing interest Journal of Religion, Media and Digital Culture Volume 2, Issue 2 (Dec 2013) http://jrmdc.com Downloaded from Brill.com09/30/2021 07:42:02PM via free access in Other cultures.

  • Iberomanga: from Mainstream to Gafotaku and Gendered Niches1
    José Andrés Santiago Iglesias Iberomanga: From mainstream to gafotaku and gendered niches1 José Andrés Santiago Iglesias In 1992, comics critic Toño Blanco2 wrote: “Two bombs were not strong enough [...]. Now, Japan is also winning the race in a market that generates many millions of profit every year: superheroes. [...] The Americans created this market and have held its monopoly for many years. No one seemed able to overshadow Superman, Batman, Spiderman and other champions of humanity defending civilization while dressed in multicolored pajamas. However, Japanese manga arrived, exceeding the American comics with their modern samurai and providing more action, fantasy and violence than their veteran American counterparts. 1 The prefix “Ibero” has been used lately to target any cultural display as “Spanish”—Iberotaku means Spanish otaku, Ibero-manga means “manga made in Spain”. 2 Toño Blanco (A Coruña 1964 - 1994) was a writer, actor, director, and a promoter of comics in Galicia. He was also co-founder of the TV program “Xabarín Club” (lit. Wild Boar Club), a television broadcast pioneer about anime and comics, music and children’s entertainment which has aired Dragon Ball, Mr. Ajikko, Dr. Slump, Dragon Ball Z, Black Jack, Doraemon, Keroro Gunsou, One Piece, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Meitantei Conan etc. Despite the fact that it was only a regional broadcast, in the second half of the 1990s it became a national phenomenon – under the original guidelines set by Toño Blanco – with more than 100,000 boys and girls affiliated. i © International Manga Research Center, Kyoto Seika University. http://imrc.jp/ Akira and other Japanese warriors who mixed martial arts with the most sophisticated hi-tech, caused a furor among boys and girls in western countries.” (Blanco 1992: 5-6) Despite its irreverence, this quote highlights the revolution that was about to happen in the Spanish comics industry back then.
