by Michael Crumb“Anime at the Library” will present the first “bleach” film, Memories of Nobody, to open their summer season. Anime continues to gain recognition as an important medium, lately witnessed by the spring exhibition of anime-based paintings at New York City’s Japan Cultural Center. Ali Banks of the library’s fine arts department has been moderating “Anime at the Library” with the help of sponsors “Morning Glory” and Zippy’s “Tokyo Tower” radio show to be heard on WAWL on the web. The “Bleach” series has generated a good deal of music production, including a live-action rock musical. To get some added perspective on this anime phenomenon, I sought the opinions of my younger children Mirel and Quin Crumb who are artists and manga fans at ages 13 and 10 respectively. Mirel remarks, “Anime movies are so fan service!” an appropriate observation, considering that most anime films originate as manga, a printed medium in which artists’ passion first emerges. Popular manga often became television serials in Japan, and some of these have been distributed in the US, showing up on Turner’s Cartoon Network. Then come the films, so it is often the case that an anime film appears stages away from its original source. Yes, the fans want to see films of those subjects, but these films reach wider audiences, sometimes gaining international acclaim. chattanoogapulse.com/arts/arts-feature/arts-entertainment-in-the-spirit-realm/
