Romanticism had its roots in the Enlightenment but developed differently across countries. In Germany, it reacted against French ideas and was linked to nationalism. While the Enlightenment viewed nature as something to control through reason, Romanticism saw nature as a mysterious force to engage with through emotions rather than analyze. Romanticism also looked to the past through traditions rather than the future, emphasized individuality and emotion over reason, and impacted art, literature and education by stressing play, emotions, and aesthetics in childhood development.

3. Introduction: Content Warning
Sadly this panel will be discussing some distressing real life
events, such as hate crimes (including assault, and murder),
discrimination, and harassment.
It will also be discussing anime and manga that touch on
these topics or may have distressing scenes.
I feel it only fair to warn you as members of the audience of
what may come up as part of the nature of this panel.
5. The ‘Models’ of Disability
The Medical Model
The medical model of disability views disability as a ‘problem’ that belongs to the disabled
individual. It is not seen as an issue to concern anyone other than the individual affected.
The Social Model
This model draws on the idea that it is society that disables people, through designing everything to
meet the needs of the majority of people who are not disabled. There is a recognition within the
social model that there is a great deal that society can do to reduce, and ultimately remove, some of
these disabling barriers, and that this task is the responsibility of society, rather than the disabled
person.
Definition Examples From University of Leicester

6. Identity First Language vs. Person First
Language
Identity First Language e.g.
Disabled Person, Deaf Person,
Autistic, Dyslexic
Person First Language e.g.
Person with disabilities, Person
with hearing impairment, person
with autism, person with
dyslexia
7. This Presentation (Largely) Uses Identity
First Language
Whilst Person first language is well meaning many disabled people find it
dehumanising as their disability is often a fundamental part of who they are,
especially Deaf, Blind, and Autistic People.
We only tend to refer to ‘negative’ things like this for example “person who has the
measles”, “person with pneumonia”. We don’t do this for other identities like LGBT+
identities, or when describing races.
I am a white, cisgender, heterosexual woman, not a person with whiteness,
femaleness, heterosexuality and cisgenderedness… why would I say “with dyslexia”?
Some exceptions: Disabilities that people do wish to cure – e.g. cancer.
9. What is considered a ‘Disability’ Legally?
United Kingdom Law
(Equality Act 2010, preceded by the Disability
Discrimination Act (DDA) 1995)
“A person has a disability if that person has a
physical or mental impairment, and the
impairment has a substantial and long-term
adverse effect on that persons ability to carry
out normal day-to-day activities”
- Does not cover Northern Ireland which is
still covered by the DDA
Japanese law
(The Basic Law for Persons with Disabilities,
1970 revised 2004)
“The term "persons with disabilities" in this
Law means individuals whose daily life or
social life is substantially and continuously
limited due to physical, intellectual or mental
disability.”
10. Japanese Attitudes to Disability and
Impacts on Legislation
Academics, film makers, and disabled advocates have stated there
is still a social stigma against Disabled people in Japan. It has been
called a culture of shame” and it has been attributed with the
relatively slow progress of anti discrimination law in Japan.
Japan, “Act for Eliminating Discrimination against Persons with
Disabilities”, cleared the Diet in June 2013, but took effect only
in April 2016
UK, “Disability Discrimination Act 1995” superseded by
“Equality Act 2010”
USA, “Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990”
UK law means that private hospitality businesses must be
accessible to disabled users.
Japanese law only mandates public services to be accessible to
disabled people. Under Japanese law private businesses only
need to strive to be accessible.
Perfect World – Rie Aruga (2014 - Present)
11. Japanese Attitudes to Disability
Japanese society has a concept “mendokusai” roughly
meaning “it’s troublesome” or “it’s a nuisance”. Not only does
the ‘shame’ surrounding disability impact on representation
in Japan but it also could be being held back by this attitude
in regards to disability representation.
It has been cited as a reason for why few Japanese works take
into consideration minorities within their target
demographics (in particular this has been pointed out as a
reason works featuring LGBT+ characters aren’t as heavily
scrutinised in Japan as in the west).
With the Light – Keiko Tobe (2000 – 2010)
12. Accessibility in Japan vs the UK
Wheelchair / Mobility Scooter Accessibility in metropolitan areas
has been said to be better than the UK, with most train stations
having elevators and other access accommodations.
Rural areas both in the UK and Japan struggle to keep up with
the cities, and are much harder to access.
Only assistance dogs certified in Japan are recognised as being
allowed entry to restricted places, also under Japan law only
dogs trained to aid with physical disabilities are recognised. You
can apply for certification for dogs not trained in Japan.
Certain medications that are common in the West are restricted
or banned in Japan, in particular Codeine and most Inhalers.
Travelers may bring certain limited amounts of medicine into to
Japan but should look into legal requirements before travel.

Some families are positive and try to change the
world by being open about their disabled children.
But the ‘silent majority’ still has a negative view and
does not want it known that they have disabled
children.

17. Visible Disabilities
Arguably the most common form of disability
representation in Japanese media, especially anime
as it is the most immediately visually obvious.
Some contemporary set examples exist, as do
people in fantastic settings but who have only
modern day technologies available (e.g. Nunnally
in Code Geass has a typical wheelchair)
However most examples of prosthetic limbs tend
to exist in sci-fi, fantasy, or steampunk inspired
shows which greatly increases their function to
sometimes super power levels.
Also too many arm cannons / guns to list.
Franky from One Piece
18. Perfect World
Rie Aruga (2014 - Present)
Romance manga. Story focuses on Kawana Tsugumi a 26 interior
designer who at a business party reunites with her high school
crush Itsuki Ayukawa who since she last met has had a spinal
cord injury and now uses a wheelchair.
Itsuki is a promising architect and gets a lot of clients looking for
wheelchair accessible plans for houses. He is frustrated by
private business ignoring his accessibility recommendations.
He is based on Kazuo Abe CEO of Abe Kensetsu Inc.
Their romantic rivals include another former school mate who
likes Kawana, and Itsuki’s personal care assistant who feels she
understands his needs better than Kawana.
Published by Kodansha Comics, also available on Kindle.
20. Sensory Impairments
Not as commonly depicted in anime as
visible disabilities, but not wholly
uncommon.
Typically, blind characters, or deaf characters.
Blindness appears to be more frequently
depicted.
Blind characters frequently have vision or eye
loss due to battle injuries, which given the
action based aspect of many anime is
probably to be expected.
May or may not be cured.
Japanese Sign Language (JSL) only rarely
appears.
A Silent Voice - Yoshitoki Ōima (2013 – 2014)
22. The “Neurodiversity” Paradigm
Portmanteau (“smush word”) of the tern
“Neurological Diversity”, the concepts that
different neurological conditions are simply
examples of different ‘brain wirings’ or
‘mental operating systems’ and are not
inherently ‘wrong’ or ‘bad’.
Largely pioneered by members of the
Autistic community, in particular Australian
Autistic Sociologist Judy Singer who named
the concept in 1996.
23. Neurodivergent Conditions
Very rarely appear in anime with confirmed
diagnosis
Possibly due to social stigma in Japan
surrounding cognitive differences and
learning disabilities
Mostly in appear in autobiographic of
educational works if confirmed. Or are
largely misunderstood.
However a lot of anime characters have been
fan interpreted as having neurodivergent
conditions – e.g. L from Death Note being
coded Autistic.
24. With the Light: Raising an Autistic Child
Keiko Tobe (2000 – 2010)
Biographical manga, based on accounts given to
author by various parents of Autistic children
(typically with higher support needs)
Follows the story of a family who’s eldest child,
Hikaru, is Autistic. Told mostly from the point of
view of Hikaru’s mother Sachiko as she has to fight
for him to gain access to education.
Does sometimes use outdated terminology.
Sadly unfinished as Keiko Tobe passed away due
to an undeclared illness in 2010.
Published in English by Yen Press and still in print,
also available on Kindle.
25. Depression, Anxiety, and Mental Health
Actually shows up quiet frequently in anime in and manga.
Some works directly make it a focus of the plot – e.g. Welcome to the N.H.K, or use anime to
lampoon and critique Japan’s approach to mental health – e.g. Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei.
Others show have a fantastical setting but examine what impact situations like war, alien
invasion, or deep dive digital technology would have on it’s characters mental health – e.g.
Neon Genesis Evangelion, Serial Experiments Lain, Digimon: Tamers.
Japan’s approach to mental illness is very different from the west, Freudian and other methods
of early psychoanalysis never really became accepted in Japan so could not go on to be
eventually developed into todays techniques.
Most medical insurance in Japan does not cover anti depressants or psychiatric care. Making
the cost of treatment quiet prohibitive.
The Japanese Government currently does not regulate mental health provision in Japan, plans
were made in 2015 to regulate the sector but are still in the planning stages.
26. In Summary
Anime appears to be quiet diverse and inclusive
in it’s depiction of disabled people at first.
However it still reflects Japanese societal views in
many ways
The most positive portrayals of disabled people
tend to be people who either have magic or sci-
fi enabled ways to supposedly ‘overcome’ their
disabilities.
The most stigmatised are people with cognitive
disabilities or mental health issues. Though it
seems Japanese media creators try and use their
mediums to give these people a voice.
