AdamsArtExpose’ THE ART OF MANGA AND ANIME Manga is the Japanese word for comics. Manga started in Japan during the 1930’s. However, it has roots back to the 1870’s where it was a form of children’s literature. It evolved into manga- anime during World War II. Anime is the Japanese word for animation. Japan in the late 1930’s into the 1940’s was a militaristic nation. Citizens who did not conform to government restrictions were socially ostracized or put into government camps. Artist who had spent much of their careers criticizing the government either reversed to support the government, or found themselves in serious trouble. Those who capitulated were required to create cartoon strips that supported the militaristic propaganda and criticize the enemies of the nation. Manga has become a significant aspect of Japanese publishing since the 1950’s. Manga includes topics from action-adventure, historical drama, horror, mystery, romance, sexuality, and sports. Gay topics and sexuality have also become a major topics. The dollar value of Magna reached $4.5 million in 2010. Manga is translated and sold throughout the world, France, Canada and the United States making up the more significant markets. Following World War II, in Japan, a young cartoon artist named Osamu Tezuka, who as a youngster was a fan of Walt Disney’s early animation, developed his own original style. He created the animated character, “Tetsuwan Atomu” in English “Astro Boy”,produced by his own production company, Mushi Production in 1962. His success at animation and character creation gave him the title of the “Father of Manga and Anime”. Astro Boy came to the United States by 1963 and was shown as a cartoon series by NBC. Sailor Moon arrived in the early 1990’s Japanese anime. This is a popular series popular with children and adults, about a young school girl who evolves as a fantasy character fighting evil in a variety of ways with her cat, Luna. Her character and series of episodes became very popular in the U.S. and world wide. She also became an advocate icon for safe sex and the use of condoms in Japan and wherever the series was aired. There have been 3 films and at least 39 video games made around the adventures of Sailor Moon. Next week more discussion of Anime and it’s advent into gay sexuality.
