Japan is home to the second-largest music market in the world (after the US), the oldest continuously running film studio in the world (Nikkatsu, 1912), and a "idol" economy worth billions. From the tea ceremony to J-Pop and from Kabuki to Kawaii culture, the Japanese entertainment landscape is a unique fusion of hyper-modernity and rigid tradition.
However, if history has taught us anything, it is that Japanese culture is resilient. It absorbed Buddhism, adapted it to Shinto, and made it unique. It took Western jazz, turned it into City Pop, and exported it back. It took Disney animation, filtered it through kawaii , and created Miyazaki.
The world no longer sees Japan as a futuristic oddity. Through Demon Slayer , Jujutsu Kaisen , Squid Game (Korean, but distributed by Japanese Netflix), and the melancholic music of Fuji Kaze , the world sees a culture that has mastered the art of finding profound emotional truth within rigid structure.
