Anime (Japanese animated movies) have penetrated the world with an ease of dissemination facilitated by the Internet. The stories, though quite broadly themed, have a predominance of images that promote a warm relationship with the Other. Many stories allow the human characters involved to cross the boundary between this world and the land of the spirits: the unconscious. The fear of the unconscious has been gently eased within the youthful audience captivated by anime. Stories have the ability to heal, and it is my contention that these stories have played a significant role in helping young people to accept others of differing gender identities and various orientations, and have seeded the ground for an acceptance of the unconscious. They make possible a relatedness to the dragon, a relationship that for thousands of years has been characterized by fear and repression. What fairy tales carried for many centuries, these animated films are developing and adapting the fairy tale message to our times and the new possibilities of our nature. They heal our relationship with the Other, with the alien, and with the beyond.

日本动漫在世界范围内的吸引力:软化与他人关系的基础

动漫(日本动画电影)在互联网的推动下以易于传播的方式渗透到世界各地。这些故事虽然主题广泛,但主要是促进与他人建立温暖关系的图像。许多故事允许所涉及的人类角色跨越这个世界和精神之地之间的界限:无意识。在被动漫迷住的年轻观众中,对无意识的恐惧得到了温和的缓解。故事有治愈的能力,我认为这些故事在帮助年轻人接受不同性别认同和不同取向的其他人方面发挥了重要作用,并为接受无意识奠定了基础。它们使与龙的关系成为可能,数千年来,这种关系一直以恐惧和压抑为特征。童话故事承载了许多世纪,这些动画电影正在开发和调整童话信息,以适应我们的时代和我们大自然的新可能性。它们治愈了我们与他者、与外星人以及与彼岸的关系。
