Why is japanese used so frequently in cyberpunk imagery above all other languages...

Cheap, low-emission cars; electronics beyond China; space exploration; honest nationalism; chambara films in a western vein that Brits couldn't hope to touch.

The fact that you are on a japanese imagem board?

Many areas of Japan look like that right now.

This is your brain on Yas Forums

When the cyberpunk genre was big, it was widely believed that Japan would run the world in the future. Then they shit the bed economically with a lost decade or something.

For you zoomers, Japan was the old China but with slicker aesthetics and the idea that they were smarter and harder working instead of just an unbeatable horde.

Hold-over from earlier cyberpunk works, you zoomer

Back in the 80s when most cyberpunk literature (and bladerunner) were made, Japan was economically dominant and rising. Japanese multinational companies were suddenly present where they weren't the decade before. The near future prediction that seemed to make the most sense was a future culturally and economically dominated by Japan. Of course that didn't happen, Japan entered a deflationary cycle and we're left with scifi movies with lots of neon and katakana.

Japanese aesthetics look futuristic as is and also they're about as far away as you can get from Western culture in terms of how the language looks and what it evolved from so it adds to a dissociated / alien feeling.

Cyberpunk is cringe. It's supposed to be dystopian but all the soiboys who make that shit now think its unironically cool

Because the cyberpunk genre and aesthetic came of age in the 1980s when everybody thought Japan would take over the world.

Nice flag, Ahmed.

the fifth generation of computing, the world was scared that the Japanese were going to have a breakthrough with artificial intelligence

>CREATIVE COMPUTING VOL. 10, NO. 8 / AUGUST 1984 / PAGE 103

>The Japanese are planning the miracle product. It will come not from their mines, their wells, their fields, or even their seas. It comes instead from their brains. The miracle product is knowledge, and the Japanese are planning to package and sell it the way other nations package and sell energy, food, or manufactured goods. They're going to give the world the next generation--Fifth Generation--of computers, and those machines are going to be intelligent.

>In October 1981, when Japan first let the world at large know about its plans for the Fifth Generation of computers, the Japanese government announced that over the next decade it planned to spend seed money of about $450 million (participating industries are expected to match, and perhaps double, that amount) and would eventually involve several hundred top scientists in this project.

>Their goal is to develop computers for the 1990s and beyond--intelligent computers that will be able to converse with to converse with humans in natural language and understand speech and pictures. These will be computers that can learn, associate, make inferences, make decisions, and otherwise behave in ways we have always considered the exclusive province of human reason.

I like the Hong Kong aesthetic behind cyberpunk. a city built like a dense array of transistors and capacitors on a silicon wafer. When I first read about Kowloon, it gave me a real vibe for the genre. Kowloon Walled City was a marvel to behold. An experiment, ended in the late 1980's, and demolished in 1994, it was the densest housing project on the face of the earth.
neat pictures and story:

Ok. WHY the fuck have I seen so many people today posting pictures of all these Cx losers. Anyone who still watches any of that shit is the biggest fucking loser at life.

Because in the 80s all of your shiny electronics like synthesizers, consoles were made in Japan. So naturally you would associate the country with modern futuristic stuff.

Cope harder Nigel

yep

You are literally on a website that exists because of Japanese culture and a large part of it is still exclusively dedicated to Japanese things.

Japan is based. They'll be around longer than us. They laugh at the concept of racism (considered a moronic western idea, which it is). They believe Japanese culture and tradition is above all others and many will tell you this to your face without caring about offending you.

>Why is japanese used so frequently in cyberpunk imagery above all other languages? Do they honestly believe their irrelevant culture will survive past the 21st Century?

I can tell you're a millenial or a zoomer. Once upon a time, Japan was a MASSIVE economic powerhouse in the 80's time frame. You saw "Made in Japan" on just about all big-ticket electronics back then as often as you see "Made in China" on stuff today. Everybody thought Japan was going to economically dominate the entire world, so it came as no surprise that cyberpunk depictions of the future during that era showed Japanese culture bleeding into everything, everywhere.

It’s because the chink cucks will go on getting more and more technologically advanced until their cock and balls fall off. Us true western civilisations will return to the land and rejoin nature in harmony while they become mindless wage cuck drones

i see chicken scratchings in neon, i think blade runner

steampunk is more likely, cyberpunk is fantasy

When the cyberpunk aesthetic was established, Japan’s influence on the west was growing.
They simply followed that trajectory for a few decades into the future.
