2. In “Remaing Yamato, Remaking Japan: Space Battleship Yamato and SF Anime” by Baryon Tensor Posadas, I am going to focus on the fetishization of anime and Techno-Orientalism characterized in the article. The transition from non-national to national qualities of anime in the age of globalization generated significant tension. Initially, when Japanese anime was imported into foreign markets from 1970s to 1980s, the ethnic quality was perceived as “too Japanese” to the subject – the Western or…

adventure is by slaying the dragon and getting rid of the conscious that clamps down on my journey to expand the horizon. “The Force” is within my character reminding me to reject boundaries. It doesn’t matter how much sleep I don’t get. It doesn’t matter how much work I put in. It doesn’t matter how hard the work because success is tough work. It is every day working at it and working at it. The Ariadne’s thread or logic in me can show the way to the truth and slay the dragon. Teachers will…

Just imagine a family enjoying a calm sunny day at the park. The birds are singing the breeze is cool and refreshing when all of a sudden puff-puff the magic dragon walks by blowing smoke along the way. While they gag on someone else’s addiction and watch as they take one last long draw from their chemical stick and drop it on what was once the nice clean pavement, and snuff it out with their shoe leaving a black sooty stain behind. This crude and possibly over exaggerated image is…

She dragged her dragon claws on the back of my neck where I still have the war wounds till this day. I turn around with my hands charging at her head and grabbing the mop that she called hair and we both went rolling down the stairs. Once we landed on the cold locker room…

interpreted it as his “final exam” before battle school. They deliberately singled him out, and made him the target for bullying and physical abuse by praising him on the launch. They encouraged the fight between him and Bonzo by putting Ender in control of Dragon Army. When Ender committed genocide, they lied to him by making him think it was a training exercise, then shortly after openly admitting that they used him, that he was nothing but a weapon. Ender was used again and again, it seems…

Filippo Cecchi -in 1875 came up with the first true seismograph. The very first seismograph was produced in 132 CE and made by Zhang Heng. His Seismograph was very unique. It had eight dragons around the center of the first type of seismograph and eight frogs at the bottom of the seismograph that would catch the balls in their mouths. Then the seismograph would make a sound to let people know there is an earthquake approaching.Zhang Heng's then lead up to another invention in 1855 and was made…

giant lady showed up at the door. She was tall, and wears a black cloak that covers her face, her voice it’s coarse and rough like sandpaper. I asked her what she did with my mom and she said nothing, but she took me inside. She showed me a crystal ball in it was my mom!. I told her to give her back but she said no and told me she needed young energy. Since my mom was 29 she figured it would be perfect. She asked me how old I was and I told her 12. I don’t know why I told her my age, but I…

downfall or fallback b) In the Hobbit one major setback is when the Trolls capture the dwarves and the horses disappear, making there journey a little longer than it should be. c) A secondary example is in Cinderella, Cinderella plans to go to the ball so she makes a dress but the evil step sisters ruin it so that she can’t go. This in the end makes her have to spend a little more time on her dress than she planned. Just like in The Hobbit. 6. Magic Weapon a) Refers to a situation where an…

many creatures that they are not real. We just hear about them in the fairy tale books that our parents told us before going to bed when we were a kid. Some of them are in the Myth, also. There are many of them, but I just remember some: Mermaid, Dragon, Hippogriff, Phoenix, etc. The creature that I love the most in these series is Phoenix because it is gorgeous. It is the symbol of the fire and the rebirth. In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secret, the author describes that when the Phoenix…
