Precarious Youth in Contemporary Graphic Narratives: Young Lives in Crisis
Journey to Adulthood: Visual representation of a morphing identity in Inio Asano's Goodnight PunpunManga has a long tradition of narratives focused on daily life and social and personal struggles, dating back to the gekiga artists of the late 1950s and 1960s. Nowadays, Japan is a country with a low unemployment rate and a high standard of living, but with an underlying conflict between youth’s personal expectations and what society asks of them. Inio Asano’s (1980) work is defined by a realistic approach to human emotions, and the ongoing struggle between his characters and the world they live in. Goodnight Punpun (Shōgakukan, 2007-2013) is his most introspective manga so far. Cleverly disguised as a slice-of-life, it follows Punpun's painful journey from childhood to adult life (first love, family disputes, broken friendship, sexual awakening, work and social expectations, etc.), shaped by the protagonist's shy nature. Goodnight Punpun also embraces Asano’s signature style: detailed backgrounds; photographic sources; stylized characters; references to Japanese popular culture; nihilistic, subjectivist and existentialist ideas; and a realistic depiction of everyday’s issues, without a sugar-coated approach. However, the most striking element is the design of Punpun and his family —portrayed as cartoonish and poorly drawn birds— which ultimately allows to convey a vast array of emotions beyond the naturalistic features of the other characters. This chapter will analyze Goodnight Punpun attending to its formal aspects and manga’s material specificity, paying special attention to Punpun’s graphic traits as a way to describe his psyche (his morphing shape responding to an emotional state) while he comes to terms with his own persona.
Who is the Subaltern in the current global frame? Has neoliberalism changed the experience of subalternity? How do subalterns write history and what kind of history is written about subalternity? Cinéma & Cie’s special issue addresses these and other questions through various theoretical approaches. The essays argue for the importance of a multidisciplinary perspective and address issues of media representation from a variety of perspectives, such as visual culture, history, philosophy, and postcolonialism. They focus on contemporary subalternity, and especially on the migrant – characterized by diaspora and condemned to invisibility by hegemonic power – and the postcolonial subaltern – who has now the possibility to express her/ himself in unexpected ways, in particular by using new media. The scattering and pervasiveness of media devices and gazes is discussed in depth in these essays, which delve into the dialectic between subaltern cultures and agency embodied in the subjects of representation.
