Reviews
"[Tatsumi] succeeds in describing the speed and multilayered complexity of trans-Pacific cultural exchanges that happen in science fiction, with a near-synchronicity of story content and theme across varied works." --Amelia Beamer, "Locus", Tatsumi's book is a brilliant contribution to the field of pop culture, containing chapters on not only all the usual suspects (Shinya Tsukamoto, J. G. Ballard, William Gibson) but also on the potential of literary theory in a global context, on the relationship between history and aesthetics and on the link between geography and artistic production., "I have always thought that Takayuki Tatsumi had (and still has) the most interesting lines into whatever it is that I've been doing with fiction, culture, and technology. He showed up before 99 percent of American academics had ever heard of me and seemed immediately to know what I was talking about--often before I did myself."--William Gibson, author of Pattern Recognition, " Full Metal Apache is a marvelous literary mediation of postoriental aesthetics and the transactions of cybercultures. Takayuki Tatsumi cites synchronicity over mimesis, a mighty tease of cultures, and his inspired critique of the chimeric emperor, gaijin fabulations, scrap thieves, ghost stories, and metafiction is extraordinary and masterly."-Gerald Vizenor, University of California, Berkeley, "Something like a cultural Godzilla himself, Tatsumi upends deeply embedded stereotypes of orientalism and occidentalism, smashing conventional notions of Western originality and Japanese imitation. . . . [R]efreshingly irreverent, even fun. . . . "Full Metal Apache" never fails to frame Japan and its 'infectious negotiations' with the West in unexpected and startling ways." --Brad Quinn, "Daily Yomiyuri", Tatsumi is a never-less-than-intelligent reader, and a writer who conveys his enthusiasms and the ideas they spark in him with nervy brilliance., “ Full Metal Apache is a marvelous literary mediation of postoriental aesthetics and the transactions of cybercultures. Takayuki Tatsumi cites synchronicity over mimesis, a mighty tease of cultures, and his inspired critique of the chimeric emperor, gaijin fabulations, scrap thieves, ghost stories, and metafiction is extraordinary and masterly.�-Gerald Vizenor, University of California, Berkeley, There is no doubting Tatsumi's intimacy with his subject matter as he juggles the orient, the occident, creative masochism, avant-pop, cyberpunk, and Mikadophilia. His ability to keep all these ideas and texts in motion and interacting with one another is impressive and helps illuminate a Japanese cultural marketplace that deserves greater exposure to Western scholars., "[A]s an overview this book makes absorbing reading, and is for much of the time obsessively fascinating. Critical theory's jargon is thankfully absent, and the book can be recommended to all except those seeking the very strongest stimulants in the way of cross-cultural intellectual analysis. The innermost organs of pink Godzillas and postfeminist cyborgs may remain, in the last analysis, unprobed. But even so, "Full Metal Apache" is a rich and nourishing soup with almost everything in there, nuts and bolts included. There's almost no one whose cultural diet can't in some way be broadened, you can't help thinking." --Bradley Winterton, "Taipei Times", " Full Metal Apache [is a] brilliant, paradigm-smashing study by Japan's hippest literary critic and cultural commentator." --Larry McCaffery, from the foreword " Full Metal Apache is a genuinely exciting and powerful text, incredibly rich in both material and ideas. Takayuki Tatsumi's overall theme is the complex and dense dynamic between Japan and America (and often the West in general), and he investigates this dynamic in ways and with material far fresher and more critically invigorating than a standard analysis of 'influences' would be."--Susan J. Napier, author of Anime from Akira to Princess Mononoke: Experiencing Contemporary Japanese Animation " Full Metal Apache is a marvelous literary mediation of postoriental aesthetics and the transactions of cybercultures. Takayuki Tatsumi cites synchronicity over mimesis, a mighty tease of cultures, and his inspired critique of the chimeric emperor, gaijin fabulations, scrap thieves, ghost stories, and metafiction is extraordinary and masterly."--Gerald Vizenor, University of California, Berkeley "I have always thought that Takayuki Tatsumi had (and still has) the most interesting lines into whatever it is that I've been doing with fiction, culture, and technology.

Full Metal Apache is recommended for science fiction readers who're willing to look at our genre from a different angle." -- Joe Sanders New York Review of Science Fiction "Tatsumi is a never-less-than-intelligent reader, and a writer who conveys his enthusiasms and the ideas they spark in him with nervy brilliance." -- Roz Kaveney TLS "Tatsumi's book is a brilliant contribution to the field of pop culture, containing chapters on not only all the usual suspects (Shinya Tsukamoto, J. G. Ballard, William Gibson) but also on the potential of literary theory in a global context, on the relationship between history and aesthetics and on the link between geography and artistic production." -- Polina Mackay Journal of American Studies "There is no doubting Tatsumi's intimacy with his subject matter as he juggles the orient, the occident, creative masochism, avant-pop, cyberpunk, and Mikadophilia. His ability to keep all these ideas and texts in motion and interacting with one another is impressive and helps illuminate a Japanese cultural marketplace that deserves greater exposure to Western scholars." -- Graham Murphy Science Fiction Studies, "Tatsumi's book is useful not only as a guide to works we might otherwise have overlooked but also to works we thought we knew well. . . . Those interested in new art and writing, and new ideas about older art and writing, will enjoy Tatsumi's book. . . ." --David Cozy, "The Japan Times", "I have always thought that Takayuki Tatsumi had (and still has) the most interesting lines into whatever it is that I've been doing with fiction, culture, and technology. He showed up before 99% of American academics had ever heard of me and seemed immediately to know what I was talking about-often before I did myself." William Gibson, author of Pattern Recognition [Full Metal Apache is a] brilliant, paradigm-smashing study by Japan's hippest literary critic and cultural commentator. . . .

Samurai sword and sexy robot. Metallic, man, metallic." --Michael R. Moser, "Leonardo", “ Full Metal Apache is a genuinely exciting and powerful text, incredibly rich in both material and ideas.

Synopsis
Takayuki Tatsumi is one of Japan's leading cultural critics, renowned for his work on American literature and culture. With his encyclopedic knowledge and fan's love of both Japanese and American art and literature, he is perhaps uniquely well situated to offer this study of the dynamic crosscurrents between the avant-gardes and pop cultures of Japan and the United States. In Full Metal Apache , Tatsumi looks at the work of artists from both sides of the Pacific: fiction writers and poets, folklorists and filmmakers, anime artists, playwrights, musicians, manga creators, and performance artists. Tatsumi shows how, over the past twenty years or so, writers and artists have openly and exuberantly appropriated materials drawn from East and West, from sources both high and low, challenging and unraveling the stereotypical images Japan and America have of one another. Full Metal Apache introduces English-language readers to a vast array of Japanese writers and performers and considers their work in relation to the output of William Gibson, Thomas Pynchon, H. G. Wells, Jack London, J. G. Ballard, and other Westerners. Tatsumi moves from the poetics of metafiction to the complex career of Madame Butterfly stories and from the role of the Anglo-American Lafcadio Hearn in promoting Japanese folklore within Japan during the nineteenth century to the Japanese monster Godzilla as an embodiment of both Japanese and Western ideas about the Other. Along the way, Tatsumi develops original arguments about the self-fashioning of "Japanoids" in the globalist age, the philosophy of "creative masochism" inherent within postwar Japanese culture, and the psychology of "Mikadophilia" indispensable for the construction of a cyborg identity. Tatsumi's exploration of the interplay between Japanese and American cultural productions is as electric, ebullient, and provocative as the texts and performances he analyzes., Takayuki Tatsumi is one of Japan's leading cultural critics, renowned for his work on American literature and culture.
