Japanese Movie

Hi, guys. I am really tired because watched two movies, Ring and The Ring.
Ring is really helpful for me because of Japanese, haha, but The Ring is ,,, shit! lol too fast to speak English!

anyway, I loved these movie, and I am really proud of ring was remaked by hollywood.

I hope you guys could know little Japanese culture from Japanese animation.
Do you know why Sadako wored white cloth?
Because, in Japan, the body is worn white cloth, that's why she wore it.

However, Hollywood remake really well! They changed american style from Japanese style, so I think it is easier to understand for Americans I think.

Did you find any fanny Japanese culture in Ring?
if you guys have any question of it, just ask me!!

have a good weekend♪

Japanese Animation

Hi how are you doing guys?

I want to talk about Japanese Animation.

I read chapter 2 which was about narratives.

You know Japanese animation or Manga are really famous in around the world.

why??

I think Japanese animation is really big scale is huge.

In the text book, Todorov said every story has a biggining, a middle and an end.
In japan, we really focus on this theory and we call 起承転結 ”ki syou tenn ketsu."

起承転結 means 'Introduction, development, denouement and conclusion'

I think, this theory is grate, so that's why Japanese Animation is famous.


Do you know Naruto? This animation is really famous in around the world, especially in America.
I think this Animation is about Ninja which is Japanese culture. So people who live in other country can be easy to in interested in Naruto, I think.
How do you think Japanese Anima? Do you like Japanese Anima?

BRICs

Hi. I did quiz1, but tewe was no submit icon again.. nnn,,, how should i do??

Anyway, do you know "BRICs"?
B means Brazil, R is Russia, I is India, and C is China.
I watched the Japanese TV program last night, and it said about this 'BRICs'.

It said that in 2030, developed nation, which is G7, U.S.A., Japanese, germany, U.K, France Canada, Italy, will be poorer than BRICs.
Right now, technology of BRICs is developed fast.
looooooong time, Japan was the best rich country in Asia, but last year, India became best country in Asia.

nnn, this is sounds bad ha?

Right now, the whole world is recession, and the biggest reason is U.S.A.
we developed nation may be overtaken immediately by BRICs unless we break this situation.

My first blog in English

This is my first time to have English blogs.
Oh, anyway, I am from Japan, Tokyo, Kei Uchiyama.
Last summer vacation, I went back to Japan almost 3 month, so I haven't use English for a while. I mean I forgot English, haha.

This is my first online class, so I am pretty nervous, but I will do my best for getting good grade.


Do you know Japanese leader changed? This is huge news in Japan right now, and recently, he called to Obama.
It was his first conversation with the president since his party defeated Japan’s long-governing incumbent party in Sunday’s landmark election.

How do you think Japan and America relationship will be well or not by changed japanese leader?
