On the one hand, Tanizaki used tropes of shōnen-mono to capture a world that was disappearing from the literary and cultural landscape of the late Meiji period (1868–1912). On the other hand, he depicted characters that countered prevalent discourses about how children should behave as young model Japanese citizens that were being advocated through the modern educational system and the development of children's literature. He did so not to advocate for political or social change but to have a titillating effect on readers. Tanizaki's child characters can be read as prototypes for his later sadomasochistic adult characters, but they also move beyond them. I closely read \"The Children,\" discuss critical responses to the story, and show the legacy of Tanizaki's shōnen-mono.","PeriodicalId":88338,"journal":{"name":"U.S.-Japan women's journal.

In this article, I demonstrate the thematic continuity between Cobalt girls' novels and popular literature for adults by examining representations of female homosociality in two novels by Yuikawa Kei: her girls' novel Sayonara, Insecurity (Sayonara, konpurekkusu, 1987) and her love novel Sweetheart Nearby (Katagoshi no koibito, 1999). I argue that both novels employ a model of female homosociality based on the exclusion of men and rejection of heterosexual love. In Sweetheart Nearby, Yuikawa expands this model to include a cluster of plot elements I call \"lesbian panic defused,\" which signals the protagonists' heterosexual identity and serves as a foundation to the homosocial plot. I argue that the homoerotic tension between the female protagonists in Sweetheart Nearby links this novel to the tradition of passionate friendship in girls' novels and also queers the genre of love novels. Thus, Sweetheart Nearby expands the boundaries of the love novel genre (ren'ai shōsetsu) to include homosocial bonds.","PeriodicalId":88338,"journal":{"name":"U.S.-Japan women's journal.

Shōjo manga does so through distinctive aesthetic and narrative styles and themes important to young female readers. One dominant theme has been mother-daughter relationships. This article explores what happens when manga creators use this theme in warthemed shōjo manga to complicate the idea that women were merely victims of war and to show the complexity of experiences and emotions women may have felt. The lack of women's perspectives in Japanese postwar fictional narratives about the war leads to an androcentric discourse in the narration of the past; however, we show that war-themed shōjo manga take a different approach. In order to investigate how war-themed shōjo manga potentially destabilize the androcentric narrative of war fiction and function as an expressive tool for women's own experiences, this article uses theories of shōjo manga expression (shōjo manga hyōgen-ron), Hélène Cixous' notion of écriture feminine, and Susan Sontag's writings about photography to analyze three shōjo manga works that portray wartime Japan during the 1930s and 1940s and are premised on different kinds of mother-daughter relationships: Takemiya Keiko's The Odor of Crimson (Kurenai nihofu, 1993–95), Matsuo Shiyori's Between the Sky and the Sea (Sora to umi no aida, 1998–2000), and Satonaka Machiko's The Memory of My Love (Waga ai no kiroku, 1984). Our investigation shows that in these manga, war is presented in a way in which female protagonists can achieve psychological maturity and establish a sense of female subjectivity.","PeriodicalId":88338,"journal":{"name":"U.S.-Japan women's journal.

Kanō was arguably one of Japan's most influential scholars of gender, militarism, the emperor system (tennōsei), and nuclearism. As a childhood survivor of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, until the end of her life, Kanō wrote about the relationship between Hiroshima and Fukushima. Her lifework exemplifies a legacy of Japanese feminist criticism that has cautioned against essentializing women as victims and mothers as peaceloving and instead illuminates women's conflicted, contradictory, and heterogeneous responses to state power. Kanō spent her life carefully examining women's participation in Japanese empire and the gendered dynamics of Japanese imperial ideology. This introductory article contextualizes how this translation of Kanō's essay, \"The 'Emperor's Heart' and the 'Mother's Heart': What Gave Rise to the 'Mothers of Yasukuni',\" is representative of her salient contributions to feminist thought that illuminate the relationship between the Japanese emperor and the maternal. This translated essay remains relevant to understanding the entangled intimacies of motherhood and militarism and how a seemingly natural desire for mother's love was incorporated into a gendered imperial statecraft that Kanō critiqued as maternal (bosei) fascism.","PeriodicalId":88338,"journal":{"name":"U.S.-Japan women's journal.
