Anime and Japanese Popular Culture

Examines anime (Japanese animation) and manga (graphic novels), two of the most important cultural products to appear in the post-war period, as a way of understanding the changing character of contemporary Japanese culture and society. As anime is a rich and diverse medium, students approach it from a variety of perspectives: as art, as social commentary, and as Japanese and global popular culture. Conducted in English.
