Scarlett Johansson has been cast in an upcoming movie based on Japanese anime, "Ghost In The Shell.” She will be playing a Japanese character, but she’s not Japanese. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below. "Scarlett Johansson is starring in next year’s Ghost in the Shell live-action adaptation, and fans of the original animated film are up in arms. When Johansson was officially cast to play a character known as the Major in the movie, the news sparked a wave of criticism aimed at Paramount and DreamWorks for their decision. After all, the character Johansson is playing is central to a series of manga, movies, and TV shows all set in 21st century Japan. Johannson is neither Japanese nor is she native to Japan. Now that fans have seen what she’ll look like in the role, the backlash has found its second wind. Let’s get something out of the way: casting Scarlett Johansson in Ghost in the Shell is a classic example of whitewashing. The same thing happened to The Last Airbender,Exodus: Gods and Kings, and Gods of Egypt. But this particular example is a little less cut-and-dried. It speaks to the studios’ cynicism leading to a fundamental misunderstanding of the source material all for the sake of making a buck.”* Read more here: http://www.theverge.com/2016/4/18/11455160/ghost-in-the-shell-scarlett-johansson-hollywood-casting *** Download audio and video of the full two hour show on-demand + the members-only post game show by becoming a member at http://www.tytnetwork.com/join/.

Japanese is known for its complicated writing system, but why do we use kanji? Can't we just use hiragana and katakana? Is it possible to abolish kanji? - Hiragana and Katakana are phonetic characters. - Kanji (literally meaning Chinese letters) is like a symbol. - Japanese has a lot of homophones and homographs and kanji helps to distinguish them. - We have a set of official kanji on the joyo kanji list. - There has been a number of attempts to abolish kanji in Japanese history. - Once, John Pelzel from the Allied occupation of Japan tried to completely romanise Japanese after WWII. [Here's a bit of history of people who tried to abolish kanji] 1866 - Hisoka Maejima, a Japanese statesman, was said to send a proposal to the shogun, insisting on abolishing kanji. 1872 - Yukichi Fukuzawa, Japan's prominent figure featured in the current 10,000 yen bill, wrote about his idea of abolishing kanji. 1881 - A group of people started a movement to promote the use of kana letters in place of kanji. 1946 - Naoya Shiga, a famous Japanese novelist, suggested that Japan should adopt French as the official language. 1946 - The Yomiuri Shimbun, one of the most popular Japanese newspapers, published an editorial arguing that adopting Roman alphabet would be key to democratise the country.

On Sunday, a cuddly clan of Japanese mascots set a Guinness Record for synchronized mascot dancing, Rocket News reported. Of the 141 characters that participated, 134 continuously danced in unison for five minutes. The mascots, known as yuru-kyara, earned success on their third attempt, when less than 5 percent of them fell out of sync, according to Kyodo News. The dance, performed to "The Beard Dance" by Japanese comedy-rock band The Drifters, can't compete with Gangnam Style, but it scores high on the adorableness meter. Yuru-kyara, meaning "loose characters," maintain plush popularity in Japan, where local governments, companies, and campaigns use the mascots for brand promotion. The country boasts an estimated 1,000 yuru-kyara. Characters represent entities ranging from the Liberal Democratic Party to tax collectors to general causes like recycling. For the past three years, Japan has hosted a Yuru-Kyara Grand Prix, to crown the country's most popular fluffy friend. The 2012 event featured over 800 mascots. But until now, they've never danced as one. In the video above, it's easy to see how excited the new record makes its participants. When record officials deem the stunt a success, a celebration breaks out -- complete with hugs, high fives, and playing "We Are The Champions." We can appreciate a cuteness overload when we see one. Domo arigato, Japan.

「Learn Japanese」 Intro to Kanji #01. What is Kanji?

「Learn Japanese」 Intro to Kanji #01. What is Kanji? Kanji is the ideographic system writing system of the Japanese language that originates from Chinese characters. The kanji for kanji is 漢字 and it literally translates to “characters of the Han dynasty.” In contrast to the English language and the other two aspects of Japanese written language, hiragana and katakana, all of which are primarily phonetic, kanji is ideographic (also commonly described as logographic), which means that the characters primarily represent ideas as opposed to sounds (although every single kanji character is naturally associated with a respective set of pronunciations). For example, take the kanji 門, which can be read as “kado,” “to,” or “mon,” depending on the usage. This character is perhaps the most visually indicative of the idea it represents, as it translates to “gate” and quite literally looks like one as well (more so a traditional Japanese gate than a conventional Western gate). For the sake of comparison, the aspect of the English language that resembles the system of kanji is its implementation of numbers. In short, the sight of the character 1 is not suppose to evoke the idea of the pronunciation of “one” [wuhn] so much as it is suppose to evoke the idea of a singular existence. The same dynamic applies to kanji. Additionally similar is how 1 can be pronounced a vast number of ways (due to the fact that numbers are used in a vast number of languages but also in different instances of the same language such as in “1” and “1st”) but represents the same idea for every single pronunciation. The same goes for kanji, in that the same kanji character can be pronounced differently depending on the circumstances it is used (this variation originates from a very, very long history of Chinese characters being imported into the Japanese language, so it is interestingly enough a condition of time as opposed to the number system’s condition of space). However, despite kanji’s status as a system of characters that are suppose to graphically represent ideas, not all kanji give a clear idea graphically of what they represent. For instance, while the kanji for “meat,” 肉, visually resembles meat on bones, none of the kanji that are used to mean “circle” (丸, 輪, 円) look like the shape of a circle at all. Kanji can also be misleading, such as the character 口, which looks like the shape of a square but actually represents the concept of “mouth.” In due consideration to this, the visual depiction of a kanji is an ultimately an unreliable method in deciphering its meaning. ✧¸¸.•*¨*• •*¨*•.¸¸✧ Support Learning Japanese on Patreon!

「Learn Japanese」 Intro to Kanji #02. Advantages & Disadvantages ADVANTAGES Clarity With just hiragana and katakana, the Japanese language suffers from one same issue as the English language: many words have multiple definitions that you have no way of telling without context. In Japanese, because there are so many kanji and they all represent ideas, you can instantly tell which meaning the word is referring to despite every meaning having the same pronunciation (provided you have memorized the required characters). One such example is the word “kanji” itself, which has more than five different meanings, but you can tell instantly which one is which if you’re using kanji. 漢字 means “Chinese characters” and 感じ means “feeling” and both are pronounced “kanji.” Compression & Processing In the same way that 999,999 is much easier to process than “nine hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine,” kanji characters are much easier to process than their hiragana counterparts. Additionally, for whatever reason, the Japanese language does not employ spaces between every word; kanji eases this burden a considerable amount by representing ideas while hiragana is typically used to represent grammatical necessities (you can essentially tell when a word ends when kanji switches to hiragana or vice versa). Given this, forsaking kanji is tantamount to reading written English without any spaces. However, beyond the issue of spaces, kanji ultimately compresses written language tremendously. To illustrate, imagine if a lengthy English word such as “internalization” could be represented by one single character. (It is much easier to Tweet your ideas in Japanese without worrying about the 140 character limit than it is in English!) Transcendence Theoretically, because the characters predominantly represent ideas and can garner more pronunciations as time goes on, kanji could transcend the Japanese language and find its way into all languages of the world, just like the system of numbers all but do. Unfortunately, it’s not so simple to propogate one universal system to the entire world. However, because kanji derives from written Chinese language, a command of Japanese kanji naturally comes with a fraction of an ability to make out the meaning of some Chinese words (without even knowing how to pronounce them, which is the beauty of ideograms). DISADVANTAGES Volume It is ultimately unrealistic to create and use a writing system wherein the characters represent every single idea. Given the essentially infinite amount of ideas in the universe, which is only increasing with each passing day, one would have the memorize an infinite amount of graphic representations, or pictures, by heart just to be able to communicate in written language. The Japanese kanji system overcomes this by having its characters instead represent a set of ideas as opposed to very specific, individual ideas (this in turn results in another issue in and of itself albeit it isn’t nearly as daunting as conquering infinity). This results in there being approximately 50,000 kanji characters since the dawn of time. In the present day, the Japanese government has issued a set of approximately 2,000 most commonly used kanji, which should altogether be sufficient for being literate with modern media. as compulsory education ✧¸¸.•*¨*• •*¨*•.¸¸✧ Support Learning Japanese on Patreon!

To use the writing kit the owner would lift the inkwell lid in order to access the brush (not included) which is carried in the tube-like shaft. The ink well was designed to hold ink-saturated cotton which prevented the ink from spilling. This old writing case is in poor condition having suffered much wear from use and age. The copper case and brush shaft are dented and discolored. The inkwell lid opens easily yet the lid does not close completely. Please read below to learn more about Japanese calligraphy. Size: Height: 1.4 inches (3.5 centimeters) Length: 8.0 inches (20.5 centimeters) Width of ink basin: 1.4 inches (3.7 centimeters) Weight: 4.6 ounces (130 grams) More about Japanese Calligraphy Good penmanship as well as talent with a writing brush were skills more valued in the past, before typewriters, word processors and email largely removed the visual element of style from our writing. Brush and ink were the most common writing tools in Asia before the start of the 20th century, and a writer's artistry was to a large extent measured as much by the beauty of the characters he created as the meaning they were meant to communicate. The most basic tools of calligraphy include a brush (fude in Japanese), inkstone (suzuri), ink stick (sumi) and water dropper (suiteki). Additional tools exist though these are the most essential. During the late Heian period (794-1185) the standard writing box (suzuribako) was introduced into Japan from China where it became an essential tool of Japanese business and domestic life. Writing boxes typically contain all of the tools listed above plus others, and in the past were produced in many forms including simple utilitarian models for shopkeepers, elegant versions for display in the home and even portable kits one could easily carry on their person. Though few modern Japanese ever use a brush and ink outside a classroom, as a culture they nevertheless continue to appreciate the beauty and artistry of writing produced by a talented calligrapher. item code: R1S4-0005583 category code: (calligmono) ship code: L1650

This is a review of the Hello Kitty Happy Kitchen Re Ment Playset. This Hello Kitty Happy Kitchen Re-ment Playset comes in individual boxes as well as a whole case. When you purchase the entire case you won't get any duplicates. Hello Kitty is a fictional Japanese character named Kitty White. Although she looks like a cat and has Kitty in her name she is not a cat but a third grade girl. That was an amazing discovery for me.

Step 1: Understand kanji Understand that Japanese calligraphy symbols, or kanji, are simply basic representations of everyday objects; essentially, they are pictographs. Tip Remember that, although Japanese kanji and Mandarin Chinese symbols are similar, the translations are often vastly different. Step 2: Focus on larger characters Focus on the larger parts of a character rather than smaller strokes or dots -- these carry more meaning. Step 3: Look for familiar pictures Look for familiar objects in nature, such as the kanji for "mountain" with three vertical lines, or the kanji for "sun," a box with one horizontal line. Step 4: Separate into parts Separate the whole character into parts. This can mean breaking the top and bottom apart or separating multiple characters. Tip Two or more symbols can be smashed together to form a single word -- the kanji for "big" and "school" are combined to form "college." Step 5: Take a class or buy a dictionary Take a class and buy a dictionary. A little studying can help you understand more than you think. Did You Know? There are an estimated 1.2 million people of Japanese descent living in the United States.
