Diverse depictions of the WWII German army exist in Japanese popular culture. This essay will explore the origins of the Japanese fandom devoted to German military technology and also the way that authors have (re)produced stereotypes related to German culture and traditions in their portrayals of wartime Germany. Finally, using examples by authors Tezuka Osamu and Aramaki Yoshio, this essay will identify the representation of both Japanese and German war crimes in Japanese manga and popular fiction as a significant discursive trend that calls into question assumptions about anti-war thought in contemporary Japan.

I hope Hayao Miyazaki isn't reading this! The last term he'd use to qualify his animation cinema is "anime". In general terms, "anime" is used to refer to animated series for TV broadcast and video distribution. For a journalist who claims to have an inside knowledge of this audiovisual univers, that's quite a confusion to make!

This is a well-written article that illustrates the contribution of Asian audiovisual entertainment companies to the evolution of this industrial sector worldwide. It is another sign of the way this whole industry's balance is tipping progressively towards Asia. It doesn't mean that Hollywood and the rest of the Western side of this industry is loosing its ground, but that it has to share it more and more with the Asian side on the global scene.

I went to Bates from 1995-1999 and although I didn't study in the Asian Studies Program, I can only recommend you this small but great liberal-art college if you have an opportunity to go and teach there. Although the weather might be bit tough during the Winter for those who don't like the cold too much, it is a very cosy campus, with great infrastructures, a dynamic community, and really nice people working there. At least, these are the good souvenirs I have from my time there. But I have seen that they have developed a lot of things since I left, especially a strong bend for ecological issues and sustainable development initiatives. They also make it an everyday and personal duty to challenge each other intellectually and you are really required to give the best of you, which I find a very stimulating environment. At the same time, they have a good sense of collaboration, so they are also very supportive if you have good ideas!
