Slide 2: What is an "anime" and what it is eaten with

A special place among the various subcultures of modern society belongs to the youth subculture known to the world as "Animeshniki". Anime people have long been spoken of as a special youth subculture. And indeed. Here are some distinguishing features:

Slide 3: What is an "anime" and "what is it eaten with"?

Sign one: Special interests and values. Well, you don’t have to talk much about interests, it’s already clear here - anime, manga, culture and history of Japan. This includes hobbies: collecting anime and manga, figurines, posters, drawing in anime style, writing fanfiction, AMV making, etc. As for the value system, it all depends on the individual and his upbringing.

Slide 4: What is an "anime" and what it is eaten with

Sign two: Own language - slang (how could it be without it), while anime slang can become a separate object of study. "Anime", "Manga", "Otaku", etc., as well as their derivatives, are an integral part of this slang. In addition, it is worth saying that many people use Japanese words or phrases in their vocabulary. The most common are "Hello" (konichiva), "Sorry" (gomene, gomenosai, wari), "Thank you" (arigato, domo, arigato gozaimas). Well, it's simply impossible not to mention the great and terrible "Ya!", which most often expresses the joy of an anime fan.

Slide 5: What is an "anime" and "what does it eat with"?

Sign three: Clothing and appearance. Sometimes, by the most insignificant details (a keychain on a phone in the form of an anime character, a pendant on a chain), one can identify an anime fan. Bags and T-shirts with appropriate symbols are already more significant elements. It's no secret that many people do their hair like their favorite character. For example, after watching CM, also known as Sailor Moon, many girls began to wear odango (two buns on the sides of the head), and after FMA, also known as Fullmetal Alchemist, Edward's pigtail became very popular. In addition, do not forget about such a phenomenon as cosplay.

Slide 7: What is an "anime" and "what does it eat with"?

Fourth sign Presence of informal groups and communities. Of course, these are clubs and other associations. The anime subculture is actively discussed at the Animeforum, a topic was created specifically for this: Anime people as a youth subculture. It is interesting that the anime people themselves express different opinions on this issue, some believe that there is a subculture, while others, on the contrary, deny it, indicating that there are simply groups of people who are fond of it.

Slide 8: Animation Units

Speaking about the subculture as a whole, we must not forget about those who actually make it up. We call all anime fans simply "anime fans". But animeshnik animeshniku ​​strife. A small classification of anime people is proposed. Anime people are divided into three groups: Kawai, Japonist, Otaku. Actually, there is another group, but we will keep silent about it ^///^

Slide 9: Animation Units

Kawaii It's very easy to find out if the person talking to you is a kawaii animator. The kawaii speech is full of various incomprehensible words like “nya”, or derivatives of the interjection “nya” - “nyak”. As a sign of expressing one’s joy or good disposition towards you, the word can be stretched out (“nyayayayayak”) or (the highest degree of good mood or with deep thought) repeated many times (nyak-nyak-nyak). If you are unsure of your words, a kawaii anime player can give you a “ne” that is absolutely incomprehensible to you at the end of a sentence. The anime “ne” usually has an interrogative connotation. To understand what he is talking about, re-read his message before the “ne”. Surely there is a question about whether you have free “blanks” / about the possibility of borrowing your spare screw for a couple of days / about having something sweet at home, etc. With confidence in his words, this type of anime person will definitely add “vot”.

10

Slide 10: Anime divisions: Kawaii

Kawaii people always distort words when talking: if you visit such an anime fan (and he, in turn, will certainly be glad to see you at any time of the day, especially if you brought something sweet, empty blanks and the like), he will certainly warmly greet you and tell you to “come in.” Moreover, he will immediately ask you if interesting “tusoffki” are planned somewhere, and if they are planned, will there be something “buzzy” there.

11

Slide 11: Anime divisions: Kawaii

If you want to gain credibility among kawaii, say: Totoro is the cutest cutie among kawaii. Numerous answers followed, eventually dragging on into a long argument. You can not listen to it - you still won’t understand anything, but sit quietly on the sidelines - authority has already been earned. In addition, the most important feature by which you can identify an anime person in general (and a kawaii player in particular) is a characteristic emoticon: The more “_” signs between the “^^” symbols, the better the anime character’s mood. With a slight embarrassment, the anime character uses the emoticon ^^, and with a large ^^". The more signs """, the greater the embarrassment that the anime character is experiencing at the moment.

12

Slide 12: Anime Divisions: Kawaii

A kawaii anime guy knows a few words of Japanese and can easily confuse you by writing something you don't understand. Do not be afraid, for sure this is a little meaning word, so just nod with a smart look in agreement. In three out of five cases, this will be the right decision. And one more important detail: if you tell the kawaii player that you have a few unnecessary blanks, a couple of gigs of anima and something sweet in addition, and all this is waiting for him when he comes to you, you can safely run to the door: for sure the kawaii already there. Moreover, in which part of the city he lives, it does not matter in the slightest - he will be at your door exactly 5 seconds after reading the message you sent.

13

Slide 13: Animation Units

Otaku One of the most respected people in the club. Briefly characterized as "the-who-watched-everything." To the question: “Do you have ..?” promptly replies, "Yes." Similarly, it answers the question: “Have you watched ..?” The wall in the room is completely covered with shelves with disks. In the closet there are manga in various languages, but always collected by numbers, and a couple of magazines with anime content. The wallpaper is replaced by anime posters. He doesn’t like to visit very much, as he has everything he needs at hand. The stock of Japanese words is greater than that of a kawaii anime player, but less than that of a Japanese artist.

14

Slide 14: Anime divisions: Otaku

Most often has a separate internet line connected to his/her room. Rarely leaves the confines of his monastery. Does not refuse requests to rewrite anime or music. I watched anime back when no one knew exactly what it was called. Can easily watch the 52-episode series without getting up. Then take it and look again. Dreams of a personal home theater for watching anime. In general, an otaku is in a privileged state. At the mention of his name, the rest of the anime fans begin to tremble, with the exception of beginners who do not want to shake because of their ignorance.


15

Slide 15: Animation Units

Japaneseist Can easily carry on a conversation in Japanese with another Japaneseist, or overwhelm others with a few sentences of completely incomprehensible text. Most likely went to a two-week Japanese language course. Can write his own name or the name of another person in hiragana without hesitation. Knows several kanji. Sometimes, with a thoughtful air, he talks about Japanese grammar, introducing people who do not speak Japanese into a stupor. Often held in high esteem among other anime fans, in demand by almost all people in the club. We are constantly tormented by requests for ICQ or soap to translate some passage of text. An advanced Japaneseist, having obtained a disk with an anime, first of all turns off the subtitles (subtitles) and starts watching, from which the people around him begin to quietly shize. However, sometimes it includes subs, but only to laugh at the quality of the translation. He willingly explains difficult to understand moments in anime, besides, he can easily give a short lecture about forms of politeness and the use of appropriate suffixes in each case.

16

Slide 16: Anime divisions: Japonist

Educated. Prefers to drink green tea. Pleasant interlocutor. Reads Japanese classics. Occasionally writes his haiku (a genre of traditional Japanese lyric poetry), but rarely shows anyone what he got. Pretty dreamy. Most often, he goes to courses in order to be able to read the manga in the original. Appreciates good music and beautiful places. Rarely, but it happens that a person first studied Japanese, and then became interested in anime. Such a person is always brought into the club in his arms and with honors. The better such a person knows Japanese, the more authority he will earn. In general, the Japonists in the club are in the position of the working intelligentsia. Like every intelligentsia, they cherish and cherish.

Most often, kawaii draw in the "chibi" style, also known as the "Super Deformed Style." Chibi art is often used to convey something funny, witty, cute (or, as anime people say, “kawaii”). Particularly violent anime people are the easiest to recognize. Usually they can be found in the subway, in a large company, drinking the anthem of anime people at the top of their lungs. Kawaii paws were heavily involved in the creation of this work. This conclusion can be drawn simply by reading the words of the anthem

Anime. Japanese アニメ (from English animation - animation) - Japanese animation. Unlike animation in other countries, which is mainly intended for viewing by children, most of the produced anime is designed for teenage and adult audiences, and in many respects due to this it has a high popularity in the world. Anime is often (but not always) distinguished by the characteristic manner in which characters and backgrounds are drawn. It is published in the form of television series, as well as films distributed on video media or intended for film screening. Plots can describe many characters, differ in a variety of places and eras, genres and styles.

Manga is a literary genre from Japan. It is most similar to American comics, but has its own characteristics:

manga is almost always produced in black and white, which is dictated by the requirements of high circulation and cost-effectiveness in production.
Manga is read top to bottom, right to left (Japanese)

The term "manga" in Japanese means "grotesque". The term became popular in the early 19th century, with the birth of manga culture in the works of artists such as Kankei Suzuki, Minwa Aikawa, and Katsushiki Hokusai. Manga is a geographic name, which means that only comics released in Japan can be called manga.

DISTINCTIVE FEATURES

Slang has its own language (how could it be without it, while anime slang can become a separate object of study. "Anime", "Manga", "Otaku", etc., as well as their derivatives, are an integral part of this slang. In addition, it is worth saying , which many people use in their vocabulary and Japanese words or phrases.The most common are "Hello", "I'm sorry", "Thank you" Well, it's impossible not to mention the great and terrible "Ya!", which can express a variety of emotions. (moonspeak: ニャー / にゃあ, kiriji: nya, romaji: nyā, Kannada: ಞ) - Japanese "meow", onomatopoeia of a cat's meow. The interjection "nya" expresses a feeling of tenderness, joy, tenderness

Behavior. Here it is quite difficult to determine the general demeanor for all anime people. If we talk about age groups, then teenagers - anime people, and especially girls 12-15 years old, this is expressed more clearly than adult anime people.

Clothing and appearance. Sometimes, by the most insignificant details (a keychain on a phone in the form of an anime character, a pendant on a chain), one can identify an anime fan.

COSPLAY

Cosplay Cosplay m., skl. (jap. コスプレ kosupure, abbreviated from English costume play - “costume game”) - a form of embodiment of the action performed on the screen. Modern cosplay originated in Japan among Japanese anime and manga fans, so usually the main prototype of the action is manga, anime, video games, tokusatsu or a historical film about samurai. Other prototypes may be j-rock/j-pop bands

Cosplay participants identify themselves with some character, are called by his name, wear similar clothes, use similar speech turns. Often during cosplay, role-playing is played out. Costumes are usually sewn on their own, but they can also be ordered from an atelier or bought ready-made (in Japan, for example, the business of producing costumes and accessories for cosplay is quite widespread).

In my work, I conduct research on the topic: “Anime is a youth subculture”, which is becoming increasingly popular among teenagers in our country, in the city where I live. In my work, the origins of anime are analyzed, as well as when this subculture appeared on the territory of Russia and in Belgorod. The distinctive features of this subculture are analyzed. The attitude towards it in the teenage environment was studied on the basis of a survey.

Introduction

The relevance of research. Currently, the youth subculture of anime is gaining great popularity. In a narrow sense, a youth subculture is a culture created by the youth themselves. These are young people who are interested in Japanese animation, comics. The first time I learned about anime was a year ago and I decided to figure out where this subculture originated, when it appeared in Russia, in my city, and highlight the distinctive features of this subculture. I also became interested in the attitude of my peers towards anime.

I believe that it is necessary to study any subculture in particular and anime. After all, the study of the interest of young people will help for the implementation of youth policy.

The degree of knowledge of the problem. Despite the fact that many have heard the very concept of anime and there are many different publications about it, the study of this youth subculture is fragmentary. Also, there is scattered information on the anime subculture, the publication of some articles on sites on the Internet. Therefore, to characterize the anime, I used the resources of the Internet.
The purpose of this study is to study the anime subculture as one of the youth subcultures.

In accordance with this goal, the following tasks :

    analyze the conditions for the emergence of this subculture;

    identify the signs of anime that distinguish it from other youth subcultures;

    to explore the attitude towards the anime subculture among the youth.
    Hypothesis : the youth subculture of anime is a way of life of modern youth, which solves the problems that have arisen among the youth.
    Object of study are teenagers
    Subject of study : the anime subculture itself as a whole, its manifestations and features.
    Research methods :

    analysis of documents (websites, articles studied);

    survey among teenagers;
    Research Base : the study was conducted on the basis of MBOU "Lomovskaya school"
    The novelty of the work :

    the history of the emergence of anime is traced, the distinctive features of this subculture are analyzed;

    the appearance of this subculture in Russia, as well as in Belgorod;

    the attitude to anime among teenagers is analyzed.
    The practical significance of the work the information obtained can be used in the study of topics in social science, history, world artistic culture, used in class hours and extracurricular activities.
    Work structure . The work consists of an introduction, a main chapter, a conclusion, a list of references and an appendix.
    1. The history of the development of anime art

1.1.The emergence of anime
Anime, as an independent direction in animation, arose in 1958 and was officially recognized as an art at the end of the 20th century. The history of anime dates back to the beginning of the 20th century, when the Japanese began to show a noticeable interest in foreign techniques for creating animated films.

Despite the fact that experiments with animation were carried out in Japan before that, the first notable creation attributable to anime was the display of "Tale of the White Serpent", a cartoon by the Toei studio. The first anime series, "Otogi Manga Calendar", was released by Otogi Studio, which is a black-and-white historical cartoons. In 1963, Osamu Tezuka, nicknamed the "God of Manga", founded Mushi Productions and released his first anime series, Tetsuwan Atom. This was the start of the anime boom.

During the 1970s, anime changed rapidly, breaking ties with its foreign ancestors and giving rise to new genres such as mecha. There were such works, for example, as "Lupin III" or "Mazinger Z". Many famous directors, in particular Hayao Miyazaki and Mamoru Oshii, began their careers during these years.

By the 1980s, anime and manga had become widespread in Japan, and were experiencing their so-called "Golden Age". The first series from the Gundam series were released, Rumiko Takahashi began her journey to the top. In 1988, the feature film "Akira" set the budget record for an anime film in 1988 and created a whole new style of animation.

The 1990s and 2000s were a time of widespread acceptance for anime outside of Japan. Akira and 1995's Ghost in the Shell, the first to combine traditional animation and CGI, gained worldwide fame. In 1997, the anime feature film Princess Mononoke grossed US$160 million in Japan.

The number of both anime fans and viewers who watch it from time to time has increased many times over. At the same time, technologies for creating and rendering anime continued to improve in Japan: studios switched to computer graphics, actively using three-dimensional animation. From children's cartoons of the early 20th century, Japanese animation has evolved into a culture that creates diverse, serious and funny, emotional and naive, works intended for teenagers, children and adults.

1.2. The appearance of anime in Russia

Anime first appeared in Russia in the mid-1980s, when, in the wake of the warming of international relations, several classic children's films from the Toei studio were brought to the USSR: The Flying Ghost Ship, Puss in Boots, and some others.

One of the most popular in the 90s was the anime series "Beauty Warrior Sailor Moon" (Russian name - "The Moon in a Sailor Suit"), which was shown in translation from Japanese. Also, anime could be found on "pirated" video cassettes.

The first articles about anime appeared in popular Russian youth magazines in the mid-1990s. Since it was difficult to collect magazine publications and anime videocassettes alone, amateurs began to join forces. A great help in this was the Internet and amateur computer networks, which became available to the mass user, in the first place, FidoNet. The first anime and manga fan club in Russia “R.An.Ma” (Russian Anime and Manga Association) was established in 1996 in Moscow. The club almost immediately began to appear branches throughout the country and abroad. The main practical task of the club is to provide equal communication between anime fans of all ages and experience.

Nowadays, anime art is quite popular in Russia, licenses are being acquired to translate and show anime. There are more and more anime fans. This is evidenced by such a fact as the organization of anime festivals in major cities of our country.

One of these cities is the city of Belgorod. The festival of animation, comics, science fiction and computer games was held seven times in Belgorod. Every year the geography becomes more extensive. This year it brought together almost 500 participants from two dozen cities of our country, as well as Ukraine and Belarus, belgorodtv writes in his article.

The main goal pursued by the organizers of Belgorod is to engage young people in theater and related activities: singing, dancing, directing and crafting.

Also in Belgorod there is the Belgorod club Anime Belka, various uniforms, as well as shops with anime attributes.

2. Characteristics of anime as a youth subculture

As you know, a subculture is a special sphere of culture, a sovereign holistic formation within the dominant culture, distinguished by its own system of values, customs, norms, and traditions.

A special place among the various subcultures of modern society belongs to the youth subculture as a specific, characteristic only for this social group, way of behaving, communicating, spending leisure time, ideas about the world, embodied in a special youth lifestyle.

Distinctive features of the anime youth subculture:

1. Special interests - anime, manga, culture and history of Japan.

This includes hobbies: collecting anime and manga, figurines, posters, drawing in anime style, writing fanfiction, etc.

As for the value system, it all depends on the individual and his upbringing.

2. Own language - slang

(how could it be without this, while anime slang can become a separate object of study. "Anime", "Manga", "Otaku", etc., as well as their derivatives, are an integral part of this slang. In addition, many use Japanese in their vocabulary words or phrases.

The most common "Hello", "Sorry", "Thank you".

As well as "NYA!", Which can express a variety of emotions.

3. Behavior.

Here it is quite difficult to determine the general demeanor for all anime people. If we talk about age groups, then teenagers - anime people, and especially girls 12-15 years old, this is expressed more clearly than adult anime people.

4. Clothing and appearance.

Sometimes, by the most insignificant details (a keychain on a phone in the form of an anime character, a pendant on a chain), one can identify an anime fan. Bags and T-shirts with appropriate symbols are already more significant elements.

5. Presence of informal groups and communities.

The affiliation of an anime fan to one or another subgroup largely depends on the anime that he prefers.

Many anime people are addicted to Japanese pop and rock music. In this subculture, a passion for modern Japanese culture is also common, which leads to the choice of such art forms as kendo, origami, ikebana, etc. as an incidental occupation.

The children's offshoot of the Pokémon movement are fans of the Pokémon animated series.

3. Attitude towards anime subculture among teenagers

In order to identify the attitude of teenagers to the anime subculture, a survey was conducted on the basis of the Lomovskaya secondary school. The survey involved 40 people aged 11-13 years. The questionnaire contained three questions. The first question was asked "What is anime?". Five people did not answer this question, the remaining 35 people are familiar with this concept. The second question was "Do you watch anime?". Most of the respondents answered positively. The third question is “how do you feel about the anime subculture?”. Here the votes were evenly divided. 20 people answered that it was a pleasant pastime, while another part answered that it was an opportunity to experience Japanese culture.

Thus, in the teenage environment they are familiar with the concept of anime, they are interested in this subculture.

Conclusion

In this paper, we examined issues related to the development of anime as a youth subculture, studied the attitude of teenagers towards it. The purpose and tasks set in the work have been achieved.

The appearance of the anime subculture reflects the interests of today's youth. In turn, it will not solve all the problems that arise among the youth. A competent state youth policy is needed.

The most famous such direction is the "moonies" - fans of the animated series "Sailor Moon". Most often, only young girls under the age of 17-18 belong to it, who tend to outwardly behave as infantile as possible. They usually dye their hair bright yellow, blue or red and prefer the style of a Japanese schoolgirl in their clothes (white stockings, short skirt, sandals, etc.).

    "J rockers" - a group of anime people who are fond of Japanese music, understand its directions, perform it, sometimes outwardly they resemble Goths, but, in fact, of course, these subcultures have differences.

    Among fans of Japanese animation, the most active are fans of the styles of "yuri", "yaoi", "kawaii" and "hentai" - a specific Japanese sexual subculture (which is also present in Japanese children's animated series). It is these fans who have their own websites about Japanese anime on the Internet. Almost all of these sites have a clear homosexual focus (both female and male).

    Many anime people are addicted to Japanese pop and rock music. In this subculture, there is also a fascination with modern Japanese culture, which leads to the choice of art forms such as kendo, origami, ikebana, etc. as an incidental occupation.

    The children's offshoot of the Pokémon movement are fans of the Pokémon animated series.

    • An otaku (おたく or オタク) is a person who is passionate about something. Is an informal subculture
    • First, in Japan, an otaku is not only a fan or fan of anime and manga, but generally a fan of anything. In our country, this term is used specifically in relation to fans of anime and manga.
  9. Slide 18

    A real otaku has

    • has an extensive collection of anime and manga, music clips or games,
    • monitors the release of new products and tries to acquire (or download) them as quickly as possible,
    • reads special publications about anime or visits relevant pages on the Internet,
    • collects figurines of favorite characters,
    • participates in anime festivals, cosplay and other events,
    • engages in some kind of creativity (drawing, prose, poetry, AMV, etc.),
    • spends a lot of money on anime and everything related to this hobby,
    • has extensive knowledge of the history of anime development, can give comprehensive advice to a beginner on various issues related to anime and manga,
    • is interested in the history and culture of Japan (here I would like to make a little reservation that the degree of enthusiasm can be different, from simply reading articles, passion for Japanese cuisine, etc., to a serious study of the language and history of the country and trips there.
  10. Slide 19

    Positive and negative aspects of this subculture

    • A positive aspect in the anime subculture is the dominance of a positive attitude towards life and the desire for creativity. Let specific, but still.
    • To the negative consequences caused by an unhealthy passion for anime - dependence on watching another animation, loss of interest in a living society and generally falling out of society in Japan, such asocial people are called hikikomori
    • Hikikomori (jap. abbr. hikki, lit. being in solitude, that is, "acute social isolation").
  11. Slide 20

    In principle, there are such excesses in every subculture and not only, but which subculture you choose (or not choose) you must decide for yourself.
