Claymore: Guerreras, mutilación, memoria y otredad en la animación japonesa para muchachos by Áurea Xaydé Esquivel Flores

“…El propósito de este artículo es analizar cuatro elementos clave de la serie de anime (animación japonesa) Claymore —basada en el manga (cómic japonés) de Norihiro Yagi, producida en 2007 por Hiroyuki Tanaka y los estudios Madhouse—: 1) la imagen de la mujer como guerrera con cuerpo atlético y agudas habilidades militares; 2) la mutilación como parte de la realidad cotidiana de la mujer que vive en un entorno violento; 3) la memoria como eje de la evolución psíquica y corporal de una mujer alienada; y 4) la capacidad de conocer al otro como forma de romper los límites de la propia identidad; todo lo cual perfila una valiosa propuesta que reta valores de género (narrativos y humanos) y que resulta más significativa por el hecho de dirigirse principalmente a hombres jóvenes.…”

“…By undermining of the logic of detective story and psychoanalytical discourse, Basara shows that Christ is impossible in the world after psychoanalysis as he shows that spiritually-oriented individual in the 20th century got the status of outlaw, whose place is in madhouse or in prison. The reader is led by a false intrigue (nature and sense of bicyclist sect), to which the answer in the novel cannot be found, but by means of false intrigue the chaotic of the world is interpreted: all is the consequence of god-heretic. …”
