Important Facts To Understand Before Presenting An Anime Review Show

By Earlene McGee


Some of the most creative productions in the world comes in the form of anime movies. These movies, originating mostly from Japan, are quite different from the favorite superman comic book characters or children entertainment the rest of the world is accustomed to. When staging an anime review show, it is important to understand the historical and cultural perspective, and what makes them such a hit in Japan and the entire world.

Ask any animes fan why they love them and the answer given will be because they are different. The very structure of the movies is different from mainstream animations and even live action movies. Most have teenagers and teenage characters, yet the themes in such a movie are complex.

Another important difference between Japanese animes and Hollywood movies is that they are not cliche. In Hollywood movies, there is often the feeling that there has to be a happy ending. In Japanese animated films, they do not always have the happily ever after conclusions so famous in Hollywood.

Real life is never ideal, and the fact that animated movies are never ideal means people identify with them. The reach of anime is not just locally and among the few different fans. Animes conventions are organized across the world in countries as far as Germany, Costa Rica, and Brazil. It can be considered the biggest alternative to the American popular movie culture. The inspiration and success of animated films is spilling onto other sectors, like Japanese toys and video games.

But why do the Japanese favor anime over the traditional animation or even the normal live action movies. The biggest motivator is in the money. Historically, the Japan movie industry was only able to compete on an equal footing with Hollywood in the sixties. Today, it is difficult for them to compete, at least on an equal footing.

Animated movie is easy and cheaper to produce, which makes it more economically viable. The success of animes is also partially related to the tradition of the Manga. The creative art used in these comic books is almost always the inspiration behind most animated films. People in Japan are involved in the Manga culture in ways unlike how American adults regard their comic books. It was only natural that the popular Manga culture led to animes.

Since the Manga are the inspiration for many animated movie productions, it is only right that animes were the next step. Anime directors enjoy the fact that in movie production, there is a lot of freedom. There is no pressure of the representation and images of race and gender. One does not have to conform to the normal imagery of, say, blacks, Caucasians, or Asians. In the amazing world of animes, there is freedom to go any direction.

There are no Caucasians, Hispanics, blacks or Asians, only characters as the designer and director desire. This freedom shifts the focus of audiences from the character and their representations, towards the issues and problems they tackle. In fact, there is an increase in the use of female protagonists in many recent Japanese animated movies. People enjoy unique and different movies.
