Abstract:

Innovative interventions addressing childhood obesity are needed to capture the attention of youth living in a multi-media environment. The purpose of this paper is to describe the qualitative study that was conducted to inform the development of an appealing manga comic (Japanese comic art) to promote fruit consumption in youth and the process of creating the comic. Seven focus groups and two interviews (N=28) were conducted with middle-school students to better understand such topics as enjoyable components of manga comics and important health concepts. Two researchers independently analyzed each transcript using ATLAS.ti. Inductive and deductive processes were used to identify codes (ideas emerging from text); similar codes were grouped into themes. Most frequently mentioned themes related to enjoyable components of manga comics were detailed graphics and artistic style of text used to convey sound effects. The majority said eating fruits and vegetables was the most important nutrition behavior for proper health. When asked about story ideas for a manga comic to encourage youth to be healthy, many responded with ideas involving comic characters who would consume fruit, then gain beneficial attributes. Others suggested highlighting more practical benefits, such as increased focus and energy. These findings informed the development of a 30-page manga comic promoting fruit consumption, with the aim of developing an appealing storyline and relatable characters for youth. Manga comics may be able to create an entertaining learning environment that has potential to promote positive dietary behaviors in youth.

Abstract:

AbstrakKomik Jepang menjadi salah satu kiblat untuk referensi dalam membuat komik khususnya komik manga. Tidak sedikit komik Indonesia yang sangat kental dengan unsur manga hingga sulit membedakan komikus Jepang dengan komikus Indonesia bila hanya di lihat dari bentuk visualnya. Selain menggarap style gambar manga jepang, tak sedikit komikus-komikus Indonesia yang menghibridakan karakteristik pada desain karakter visual Indonesia. Sepeti pada salah satu komik Indonesia yaitu komik 7 Wonders. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui identitas dari desain karakter visual yang di hibrida pada salah satu komik Indonesia yaitu komik 7 Wonders. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan metode deskriptif kualitatif yaitu dengan menguraikan masing-masing objek yang akan diteliti. Hasil temuan penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa karakter yang memiliki unsur hibrida paling menonjol adalah pada karakter bidadari 7 Wonders. Desain karakter visual pada karakter tujuh bidadari 7 Wonders telah mengalami deformasi dan pengabungan dua atau lebih identitas visual, baik pada busana maupun pada karakter figurnya. Identitas hibrida pada desain karakter visual yang digunakan di busana tujuh bidadari 7 Wonders yaitu berasal dari Indonesia, Jepang, Arab, Turki, India, Inggris era Victoria dan Romawi Kuno.Kata Kunci: desain karakter, hibrida, komik, busana.AbstractJapanese comics become one of the mecca for reference in making comics, especially manga comics. Not a few Indonesian comics are so thick with manga elements that it is difficult to distinguish Japanese comics from Indonesian comics if only viewed from their visual form. In addition to working on the style of Japanese manga drawings, not a few Indonesian comic artists have displayed characteristics on Indonesian visual character designs. A case in one of the Indonesian comics that is 7 Wonders comics. This study aims to determine the identity of a hybrid visual character design in one of the Indonesian comics, namely the 7 Wonders comics. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method approach that is by describing each object to be studied. The findings of this study indicate that the characters that have the most prominent hybrid elements are the 7 Wonders angel characters. The visual character design of the seven Wonders 7 nymphs has been deformed and the combination of two or more visual identities, both in fashion and in the character figure.

Abstract:

AbstractBuilding on recent work supporting a sociolinguistic approach to orthographic choice, this study engages with paratextual language use in yuri, a subgenre of Japanese shōjo manga ‘girls’ comics’ that centers on same-sex romantic and/or erotic relationships between female characters. The comic magazine Comic Yuri Hime has been the dominant, if not only, yuri-oriented published magazine in Japan since its inception in 2005. Though both written and consumed by a primarily female audience, the magazine has undergone numerous attempts to rebrand and refocus the target audience as a means to broaden the magazine's readership. This change in target demographic is reflected in the stylistic representation of paratextual occurrences of the second-person pronoun anata, indicating the role of the textual landscape in reflecting, and reifying, an imagined target audience.

Abstract:

Abstract The Changelings is a classic work of traditional Japanese literature. In the modern era, it has been adapted into Japanese comics repeatedly. This article examines three shōjo manga, or girls' comics, adaptations of The Changelings published between 1984 and 2018. Taken together, the three manga evidence the different situations in which women were embedded in the 1980s and the 2010s and provide different interpretative alternatives to female readers. Manga adaptations of The Changelings crystallized gender norms in Japanese society and women's responses to and struggles with those norms by taking advantage of the gender-switching plot that originated in the twelfth century.

Abstract:

Culture in Japanese Comics Millions of Japanese, including adults, read manga--comic books. Reproducing every popular genre from humor to horror, manga both entertain and educate their readers on subjects as varied as sports, corporate life, the literary classics, and sex. Japanese also learn about food and cooking from gurume (gourmet) or ryori (cooking) manga. One of the most popular is Oishinbo, serialized since 1983. Oishinbo's hero Yamaoka is a newspaper journalist with an unparalleled knowledge of food and a developed palate. Along with his female sidekick Kurita, who shares his culinary sensitivities, Yamaoka seeks dishes for an "ultimate menu" to bequeath to the future. In the process, the pair turns to food to solve a host of interpersonal and social problems, sometimes on an international political level. Oishinbo not only provides information about foreign and local cuisines and recipes, it also propounds an ideology regarding the relationship between food and human relations that contributes toward the construction of Japanese cultural identity.

Abstract:

In the industrial era 4.0, the use of digital comic as a multimodal teaching medium is seen as the new trend in EFL classrooms. Although many teachers had already used this medium, so far, there was not any study which inquires the use of comic in another setting such as vocational high schools. Considering this gap, this study aimed to explore teacher belief, practice, and problems in implementing digital comics to teach writing for vocational students. This study used a qualitative case study approach. The subject was an experienced English teacher who held M. A. in English language. As the findings, the teacher believed that the implementation of comics-manga was the best method to switch the vocational students’ stereotype on English; from English as the most difficult subject to English as the enjoyable subject. This medium was implemented by using the genre approach. However, as the consequence, the combination of digital comics and process approach confronted a major challenge, namely time management.

Abstract:

Comics and manga have many ways to convey the expression of emotion, ranging from exaggerated facial expressions and hand/arm positions to the squiggles around body parts that Kennedy (1982) calls ‘pictorial runes’. According to Ekman at least some emotions — happiness, surprise, fear, sadness, anger, disgust — are universal, but this is not necessarily the case for their expression in comics and manga. While many of the iconic markers and pictorial runes that Forceville (2005) charted in an Asterix album to indicate that a character is angry occur also in Japanese manga, Shinohara and Matsunaka also found markers and runes that appear to be typical for manga. In this article we examine an unusual signal conveying that a character is emotionally affected in Volume 4 of Kiyohiko Azuma’s Azumanga Daioh: the ‘loss of hands’. Our findings (1) show how non-facial information helps express emotion in manga; (2) demonstrate how hand loss contributes to the characterization of Azuma’s heroines; (3) support the theorization of emotion in Conceptual Metaphor Theory.

Abstract:

Japanese comics or manga have caught the world’s attention in recent years. It conveys stories through words and images in a specific order resulting in beautiful works. Now, manga is translated into various languages in the world, including Indonesian. The following study entailed a comparative analysis of the manga Meitantei Conan into Indonesia, primarily concentrating on: the format, for example, the arrangement of pages, lettering, and typography, what was translated what was not. In translating Japanese manga into Indonesian, it was found that there were similarities (retained elements) and differences (adjusted elements). We can found similarities between the original Japanese version and the Indonesian translated version of manga in the writing composition on the chapter title and onomatopoeia. Besides, there are also similarities in cultural terms because the translator maintains terms in Japanese as a translation strategy. The main difference between Original Japanese comics and the Indonesian translated version is the binding system of using, the type of font, and the use of Indonesian cultural elements so that the dialogue of the story characters is more communicative and easy to understand.

Abstract:

This paper investigates the artistic strategies of Japanised visual artists by examining the emerging movement of manga-influenced international “art comics”—an umbrella term for avant-garde/experimental graphic narratives. As a case study, I take the special issue of the anthology š! #25 ‘Gaijin Mangaka’ (July 2016), published by Latvian comics publisher kuš! and co-edited by Berliac, an Argentinian neo-gekiga comics artist. I begin by analysing four contributions in ‘Gaijin Mangaka’ to exemplify the diversity of approaches in the book, influenced by a variety of manga genres like gekiga, shōjo, and josei manga. This analysis serves as a primer for a more general discussion regarding the Japanisation of twenty-first-century art, resulting from the coming of age of millennials who grew up consuming pop culture “made in Japan”. I address the issue of cultural appropriation regarding Japanised art, which comes up even on the margins of hegemonic culture industries, as well as Berliac’s view of ‘Gaijin Mangaka’ as a transcultural phenomenon. I also insert ‘Gaijin Mangaka’ within a broader contemporary tendency for using “mangaesque” elements in Western “high art”, starting with Pierre Huyghe and Philippe Parreno’s No Ghost Just a Shell. The fact that the link to Japanese pop culture in ‘Gaijin Mangaka’ and other Japanised “art comics” is often more residual, cryptic, and less programmatic than some other cases of global manga articulates a sense of internalised foreignness, embedding their stylistic struggles in an arena of clashing definitions of “high” and “low,” “modern,” “postmodern”, and “non-modern”, subcultures and negative identity.

Abstract:

The paper discusses the development of a helper program "TypesetHelper", designed to facilitate the process of creating and translating comics. An analysis of functions of translation in modern society shows that translation, currently, is primarily a means of enabling communication between people who speak different languages. This applies, among other things, to such a specific niche as the translation of graphic novels, comics and manga. In the modern world, comics have become an integral part of popular culture, but in Ukraine, the culture of reading and translating comics is only at the stage of active formation. The purpose of this work is to create software that would facilitate the process of work with the inclusion of translated text in corresponding cleared illustrations. It is demonstrated that the existing software, including both general-purpose graphic editors like Adobe Photoshop and specialized programs for automatic recognition and translation of comics and manga, has disadvantages with respect to the problem being solved and can not be considered as a complete analogue of the software being developed. The functions that the program should perform include opening an image file, placing a text in a selected area, centering a text relative to a cloud, creating text layout, creating correct word division using automatic hyphenation methods, saving the image to a file. An analysis of possible methods of text layout when filling text clouds of various forms is given. The paper consider software design using the Unified Modeling Language (Use Case diagram, State Diagram, User Activity diagram) and its development using the C# programming language. Illustrations of the program operation process are given, which demonstrate its interface and examples of text division and layout using the selected methods. The developed helper program has practical value and can be used in comics and manga publishing houses, or for amateur translation. Keywords: text processing, comics, text layout, UML, C#.

Abstract:

Manga—Japanese comics—are often said to be influential in young women's using more masculine first person pronouns. However, research hitherto has not focused on the actual distribution of personal pronouns in manga, leaving that relationship unclear. To assess this question, I examined the different forms found in the lines from a corpus of six popular series. Against popular expectations, I found that no female characters used masculine first-person pronouns, with few examples of them using masculine second-person pronoun. With this gap between popular thought and actual usage patterns in mind, I then reexamine manga's possible role in influencing language change.

Abstract:

The present paper discusses how various elements in shōjo manga (Japanese comics for girls) have been incorporated in works of Japanese contemporary literature. The connection between shōjo manga and literature was pointed out for the first time when the novel Kitchen by Yoshimoto Banana was published in 1987. This paper argues that this connection has developed further since then, focusing on one of the most active writers in contemporary Japanese literature, Miura Shion[1]. The paper briefly introduces the genre shōjo manga and describes its connection with the novel Kitchen before analysing a short story and an essay by Miura Shion, focusing both on their motifs and styles, to identify elements influenced by shōjo manga.

Abstract:

AbstractThis paper discusses meaning-making in serialized adventure manga (Japanese comics) by examining its metafunctional organization. Manga, whose components cover a multimodal cline from graphics to verbals, is seen as a multimodal narrative whose features are mapped onto the different metafunctions: time – experiential, with diegetic time lapse defining the start point to construe experience; cause-effect – logical, with relative positioning of components reflecting logical relations diegetically; space – compositional, with diegetic and extradiegetic spaces contributing to the coherence and cohesion of the story. The overarching interpersonal aspect of manga makes it a medium of exchange between the author and the reader and encourages the reader to actively decode idiosyncratic meanings.

Abstract:

This article analyzes shōjo culture and shōjo girls as a participants and creators of this culture. The first part of the article presents the history of girls' schools from the beginning of the 20th century and the ideal of a good wife and wise mother (ryōsai kenbo). The second part focuses on the issue of the "privileged body" of shōjo (girl), which is on the edge between the body of a child and a woman, a boy and a girl. Shōjo manga, as comics addressed to girls, have evolved since the 70s, when women began to create them. At the end I examine aesthetic traits and „the aesthetics of sameness” as tools to create emotional involvement of readers. Shōjo culture is the Japanese version of girl power.

Abstract:

Configuration of characters in a story is a representative manifestation that is able to communicate the order and value of cultural distinctiveness inherent in him. Along with the phenomenon of globalization, through the practice of appropriation, the various exclusive elements and knowledge of certain groups of society are reconstructed into new cultural entities, even if they do not originate in the space and time in which they created. The configurations Son Goku in manga (typical Japanese comic) Dragon Ball is a transcultural myth of elements in the classic Chinese novel Journey to The West mixed with the popular modern serial story of Superman from the American DC Comics and King Kong, as well as the mythology of lycanthropy from Europe. Through further investigation, the source taken in the Son Goku configuration is suspected of having a relationship with elements and knowledge of different spaces and past times (archaic), so that he is not just a popular myth, he is a collection of texts from various cultural civilizations that are scattered all over the earth.

Full text

Abstract:

This article examines the evolution and impact of Anne Frank’s The Diary of a Young Girl on postwar manga (print comics) and Japanese visual culture. The author argues that Anne’s enduring legacy in Japan, dating back to 1952, owes much to the ways in which the content of her Diary capitalizes on certain hallmarks of shōjo (girls’) manga culture, such as affective storytelling and character interiority. Moreover, as shown through a primary analysis of two emonogatari (illustrated story) versions of the Diary from 1964 and two manga versions from 1967, among others referenced, Anne Frank’s life and legacy inspires a hybridized narrative and visual style in manga that blends the emotionality and interiority of shōjo with the more graphic depictions of violence common to shōnen manga for young boys. In so doing, it encourages a reevaluation of the shōjo mode and its ability to bear witness to the physical violence and psychological trauma of the Holocaust.

Abstract:

Many academic libraries are adding comics and cartoon in print form to their collections. Japanese comics, called "manga," are a large part of this collecting. However, in some of these items, there are drawn images of people seemingly under eighteen years of age engaged in highly graphic, uncensored, sex acts. The purpose of this paper is to discuss whether collecting such materials may violate anti-obscenity laws of the United States and expose the collection developer and the library to criminal liabilities. It also suggests that these concerns can lead librarians to self-censorship in their collection development duties.

Abstract:

In Making Comics: Storytelling Secrets of Comics, Manga and Graphic Novels (2006), Scott McCloud proposes that the use of specific drawing techniques will enable viewers to reliably deduce different degrees of intensity of the six basic emotions from facial expressions in comics. Furthermore, he suggests that an accomplished comics artist can combine the components of facial expressions conveying the basic emotions to produce complex expressions, many of which are supposedly distinct and recognizable enough to be named. This article presents an empirical investigation and assessment of the validity of these claims, based on the results obtained from three questionnaires. Each of the questionnaires deals with one of the aspects of McCloud’s proposal: face expression intensity, labelling and compositionality. The data show that the tasks at hand were much more difficult than would have been expected on the basis of McCloud’s proposal, with the intensity matching task being the most successful of the three.

Abstract:

Comics, or in Indonesian, are often referred to as cergam (cerita bergambar), later they have found urgency in the science of art and literature as sequential art, whose existence can be appreciated both in art and literature. This study will highlight literary aspects or ideoplastic aspects of 5 Centimeters per Second, especially in flow and character . The purpose of this study is to reveal or explain how the tragedy was revealed in 5 Centimeters per Second. In achieving these objectives, the theorization in this study was done deductively to answer the research questions. The theory used to explain the problem is the concept of Aristoteles's Tragedy, which relates to his work Poetics as a work of classical Greek philosophy. With an explanation of the flow and the order of comics that have advantages in two respects (visual and literary technical achievements), the results of this study are expected to be a consideration in making comics. The results of this study can be concluded that the manga is present by imitating objects, events, actions, and character in a moral category that is better than humans or the world in general. In addition, in this manga story, almost all the characters (or 'actors' in Aristoteles's terminology) are aware of how to act, they really know but don't do it, eventually sinking into a puddle of suffering. According to Aristoteles, a tragic story like this is the worst.

Abstract:

Purpose Multiple studies have illustrated that the needs of various users seeking descriptive bibliographic data for pop culture resources (e.g. manga, anime, video games) have not been properly met by cultural heritage institutions and traditional models. With a focus on manga as the central resource, the purpose of this paper is to address these issues to better meet user needs. Design/methodology/approach Based on an analysis of existing bibliographic metadata, this paper proposes a unique bibliographic hierarchy for manga that is also extendable to other pop culture sources. To better meet user requirements of descriptive data, an aggregation-based approach relying on the Object Reuse and Exchange-Open Archives Initiative (OAI-ORE) model utilized existing, fan-created data on the web. Findings The proposed hierarchy is better able to portray multiple entities of manga as they exist across data providers compared to existing models, while the utilization of OAI-ORE-based aggregation to build and provide bibliographic metadata for said hierarchy resulted in levels of description that more adequately meet user demands. Originality/value Though studies have proposed alternative models for resources like games or comics, manga has remained unexamined. As manga is a major component of many popular multimedia franchises, a focus here with the intention while building the model to support other resource types provides a foundation for future work seeking to incorporate these resources.

Abstract This paper presents an application of Relevance Theory (Sperber and Wilson, 1995) to pictures by studying the role that weak implicatures may play in the persuasiveness of multimodal argumentative discourse. We take a relevance-theoretic approach to the discussion of visual and multimodal argumentation with a particular focus on the role of onomatopoeia. To examine the possible mechanism by which persuasion operates through onomatopoeia, we analyse a corpus of Japanese-style comics (manga), where visuals and verbal text interact to convey onomatopoeia. We argue that the use of onomatopoeia in manga contributes to the recovery of weak implicatures which, in turn, helps to reinforce the persuasiveness of the communicated messages in the examples analysed.

But the phenomenon did not stop there: cyberpunk became a specific way of life, demanding certain behaviour, a dress code and so on.

Full text

Abstract:

This article investigates the use of translation notes to deal with translation problems. In Translation Studies, the presence of translation notes in a translation is considered particularly significant because they clearly indicate what features of the source text the translator considered important for the comprehension of the text and therefore necessary to retain or explain. In the field of comics in translation, the use of T/N is rather uncommon, and can be considered the main translation strategy that distinguishes scanlation from other types of translations. In the first part of this article, the structure of the English-language manga scanlation communities is examined; following this, the way culture-specific items are dealt with by manga scanlators is analysed; and finally, an explanatory hypothesis linking the broader structure of participation to individual translation strategies is presented. The argument put forward in this article is that translation notes are used in scanlation both to solve translation problems and as a way for scanlators to communicate directly with their readers, thereby foregrounding their mediating presence directly on the pages of scanlated manga.

Abstract:

This essay considers threshold phenomena as mediums—that is, as technical support—for expression. For illustration, I discuss Shelley Hirsch’s live vocal interpretation of Christian Marclay’s Manga Scroll, a landscape-like musical score composed of onomatopoeias taken from Japanese comics. Hirsch’s performance of threshold enacts expression as a new milieu of experience. Attending to threshold phenomena can show points of contact among mediums and forms of technical support to see how modes of expression fold, unfold, merge, and emerge.

Abstract:

The article presents the attempt to generalize the experience of working with graphic novels (comics, manga, etc.) available in the domestic book sector. The author considers the main stages of development in the historical perspective of forms and methods of popularization and distribution of graphic novels in Russia. At the first stage, formation of the segment of graphic novels in Russia was associated with the development of the festival movement. At the second stage — with the publishing boom and distribution of publications. Later — with work with a reader of graphic novels in libraries. Development of the festival movement was carried out due to the interest, first, in Japanese cartoons (anime) and Japnese graphic novels (manga), and secondly, in American comics and European graphic novels.The author presents the festival movement in the context of the main directions: anime festivals and comics festivals (with special emphasis on the work of the ‘KomMissia’ [ComMission] festival). The article gives general characteristics of these types of festivals and reveals the degree of their involvement in the processes of forming the readership and professional environment at a certain evolutionary stage.Bookstores and public libraries are the traditional operators of book dissemination and popularization of knowledge. The author explains why the integration of graphic novels into these spaces was delayed. The article notes the importance of reader communities in social networks in creating alternative channels for selling the products of publishers of graphic novels. In 2010, the Russian State Library for Young Adults (RSLYA) established the Centre for comics and visual culture, collecting graphic novels and providing methodological assistance to libraries that use graphic novels in their work. At present, it is the Centre for graphic novels and images that provides comprehensive support to libraries. The author highlights the role of the RSLYA as a methodological centre for library services to young people in the formation of loyalty to the new phenomenon among Russian library professionals. Based on the studied processes, the article gives characteristics of graphic novels as a new segment of the Russian book market with its inherent features of positioning in the reader’s environment.
