Anime is a different beast from, say, a movie or a book. As a form of presentation, it is more distilled than a movie and thus closer to pure ideas and thoughts. It is easier to employ symbols and establish diagrammatic relationships. It is also more intentional than a movie. Everything in anime is premeditated. Every feature of the character, every article of clothes. The process of movie making may be more of a choice or simulation. But the process of anime is bona fide new creation. Every strand of ribbon on sailormoon’s uniform is intentionally created, the way leonardo decaprio’s stupidity is not. In another words, manga or anime characters don’t act. They are; much like emma or king lear. On the other hand, it is more direct than a novel in terms of presentation–it appeals less to language, and more to the direct audio/visual impression. Instead of describing, it can show in the way that movie can, and the audience can observe more than the reader. One is not told the metamorphosis of an artificial asteroid, one is shown the gradual opening of the magnificent magnetic rose.

Just a reminder that the manga/anime look is now. A complete fashion era. From the observer’s fashion page:. At socialite allison sarofim’s annual halloween party last saturday, oct. 25, the theme was japanese anime. Female dancers in purple wigs and revealing electro-violet garments swayed to the music on pedestals. A young woman wearing skimpy lingerie and a giant head of a japanese comic-book character with fake hair reaching down to her rear was placed atop the mantelpiece and instructed to stay put.
Anime is all kinds of differents. “there isn’t a single artistic style in anime,” says helen mccarthy, british author of four books on the subject, including hayao miyazaki: films, themes, artistry. “the major difference from disney-style animation is the limitless possibilities existing in anime. ” if you can dream it, anime-tors can draw it. Anime is kids’ cartoons: pokemon, oh, yes, and sailor moon, a tv series about intergalactic spice girls that airs in a heavily edited version on the cartoon network. But it’s also post-doomsday teen fantasies (akira), futuristic fly-boy films (the wings of honneamise), schizo-psycho thrill machines (perfect blue), sex-and-samurai sagas (ninja scroll)–the works. “if you want to see a story told as fast as the most exciting comic book,” mccarthy says, “but with amazing movement, music and dialogue, that’s what you get from anime.
