Interpersonal Sharing In America

Anime was created by Japan, in the year 1917, which introduced a new, entertaining and exciting commodity for the Japanese community to experience and witness. Japan had finally experienced its very own cartoons, which would indulge the Japanese culture that every Japanese citizen is proud of and admires. However, the early years of Anime wasn't its most successful, in fact it was by far its worst. Anime could not keep up with the Western cartoons, to the extent that even the Japanese would prefer Western cartoons over Anime. This proposed a tremendous problem for Anime industries, and action needed to be taken for Anime to be on the map. The industry was facing competition from legendary shows such as Batman, Superman, and Disney's very own Mickey Mouse. The hype and passion around those Western shows was so extreme to the extent that no one can compete. But, if you can't beat them, join them. Anime started incorporating those Western features into their very own animations, the characteristics, the plot, the landscape, and the animation, basically everything that helped, was taken and mixed within the old and unwanted Japanese Animations. This caused the massive explosion of Anime popularity in the late 1960's, as Anime no longer only represented a culture that the Japanese already know, and the West aren't interested in, but has now introduced a new era of ingenuity and brilliance. So what caused Anime to change over the years, and suddenly blossom in the 1960's? How

Most of today’s television programming genres are derived from earlier media such as stage, cinema and radio. In the area of comedy, sitcoms have proven

Of course, when anime first came over to America, it had to be edited to go over well with the popular audience. Television stations would go through and remove excessively violent scenes, alter translations, and even change whole plots just to make the shows more suitable for American audiences, (Ladd & Deneroff, 2009). Of course, it didn’t help that Americans viewed anime in general as children’s cartoons when it wasn’t created to be that way.

America is not becoming a universal nation. However, it is in the process of redefining the identity of what an American is. The fault for this is widespread growth of certain ethnic groups caused by immigration, paired with technology that allows for unprecedented connectivity. Consequently, this allows minority groups to rapidly spread their culture and ideas throughout the country and influence the majorities like never before. Nowhere is this more apparent than in pop culture; where Bollywood, Korean dramas, and Japanese animation have had a significant impact on the tastes of America as a whole.

Social media is capable of portraying many different things. American culture is one of the most accurately portrayed aspects in social media and television shows are one of the most frequently used social media tools to showcase American culture. In shows like American Dad!, Family Guy, and The Big Bang Theory, American culture is reflected through the topics of patriotism, family, unity, diversity, and equality. In the television show American Dad!, written by Seth MacFarlane, patriotism of a typical American father is accurately portrayed.
