      Anyone who's wondering what that "yoo" sound is called, it's called the "kakégoé(掛け声)". It helps generate the atmosphere, and it also acts as a "vocal metronome" for the percussionists, as it helps them synchronize their beat with others. Other forms include "iya", "ho", "yoi" and so on. They are actually written on the score alongside the notation marks for the instruments.

      @@MrOdsplut Yeah, but more in the mode of Game of Thrones or Breaking Bad. Kabuki is the non-nobles version of Noh, Noh was so insanely noble-class it often limited performances to a single time so that the emotions it the performance would maximally realistic. They would use the entire actor once and then throw it out, someone they had trained for probably over 10 years to do that because they only want the cold pressed extra-virgin emotions and after that one is just "copying" and "being an actor", probably the most exclusive and ephemeral form of art that's ever existed or could exist short of misusing lunar sample material. So the pathway from that to Kabuki in the hands of common people is absolutely crazy compared to King Gooddude III admitting he likes him some Game of Thrones and maybe you should be less afraid of him wink wink, etc. Very different set of motivations.

      There's still many pagan rituals around. In Germanic countries for instance, you'll still see maypoles in spring in some places. Halloween is a holiday stemming from paganism, if I'm not mistaking. I'm sure that there are many more common traditions and superstitions that can be easily traced back to Europe's pagan days. So in a way, Western societies are not that dissimilar to Japan, which also retains some remnants of its former culture.

    What truly captures my fascination about Kabuki is that while Japan has been historically and culturally isolated, the tenants for theater that they built for themselves are simultaneously completely unique and startlingly similar in comparison to the development of “western” theater. Think about it. The execution of a “mie” to convey the characterization of a particular character to the audience in Kabuki is very similar to how western plays have certain characters perform soliloquies that have a character establish their inner thoughts and feelings to the audience. The fact that the Japanese arrived at these kinds of theater techniques practically all on their own is absolutely fascinating to me. It really goes to show that though we may be disconnected by location and culture, the methods through which human beings express themselves have a beautiful thread of universality to them.

      The reason they talk like this is because it's how Japanese television is staged. In Japan performances, like TV and Comedy that do not require audience input are seen as awkward to the Japanese public. For this reason there are very few one actor performances, so all comedy and informational shows are set up with two performers. This is why when you see unscripted television shows in Japan there is often a reaction box of some audience member so you don't feel that the performance is directed at you the viewer. it's also why a majority of standup is actually a conversation between two comedians.

    for anyone who doesn't know, the prototype of Jiraiya from Naruto is from the Kabuki play, where in the play, Tsunade is his wife, and Orochimaru is his rival. That's why in Naruto, Jiraiya usually does this kind of "unknown" body movement 3:03 when he shows up and introduces himself.

      @Systemic Floyd-19 Warming pal, you literary said that "nothing of value was lost" when I commented on how japanese society just fetishises homosexuality or completely ignore (not even adressing any problem they face). You also are talking about whatever imagined "woke trend" you think I am engaging in, which I am not. And you haven't answered any of my questions, just deflecting the fuck out and trying to be vague as fuck to appear smart. So let's try again:
      Why do you think being gay is being dysfunctional?
      What does diversity have to do with being gay?
      Why do you bring diversity into the conversation even tho I did not even talk about it?
      And why do you have clearly anti LGBT+ paraphernalia in you channel banner if you don't hate the gays?

    • @vaultdude4871
      @vaultdude4871 3 роки тому +27

      @Systemic Floyd-19 Warming
      "I was very direct. It's not deflection, I'm just smart. Sorry you don't like that. Everything I said is sufficient."
      You did not explain yourself up to this point. You are just using a manner of speech that invokes certain characteristics about yourself on this conversation, like being very smart, understanding of the world and above all this. But you are not, you are merely pretending to have answered my questions by giving the impression you have answered them with very simple statements. You did not. I want to clarify that the type of vague language you use is only understood by people of your leanings and not by common folk, so by explaining your points better you may communicate your thoughts to a hypothetical audience in a more effective manner.
      "Lastly, the rainblow cult is an anti-civilizational ideology not based on anything of real value, and many androphiles reject it as such. Any ideology which claims to "deconstruct hierarchies" and replace them with some marxist "alternative" requires nihilism, relativism, and denial of reason.."
      There is so much coded and vague language in this statement.
      *Rainbow cult:* every LGBT+ person who critiques the current status quo and demands for a more humane treatment of their community. This is not an anti-civilization movement, this is just people asking for rights to be recognized. Treating different groups of humans in a humane courteous manner is a sign of civilization, it is not a sign of savagery. Unless you are against humane treatment of your fellow humans, which would mean you merely hate homosexuals without any rationale behind that, like a barbarian. I also may add that the cradle of western civilization ,Rome and Greece, was very tolerant of male homosexuality. That is not to say that they had the same way of seeing homosexuals like we do today but they didn't merely throw them into a dungeon, they were civilized. This cult you say does not want to deconstruct this current society and build a "marxist alternative, that is your perception of them.
      *Androphiles:* this is a term used by behavioural scientists to describe sexual orientation, not a philosophical stance. If there is a philosophical school of thought like this it is not recognized by the academia as of yet. But somehow I feel that you are not using it correctly. Anyways the term is used to refer to people *sexually* attracted to masculinity.
      Anyhow I feel in the first point I manage to properly deconstruct your argument. The other words at the end are just buzzwords. There is nothing nihilistic about affirming your right to exist equally as any other human being. If anything, people of your leaning I've found, seem to be attracted to the aesthetics of nihilism. You described those of an anti-civilization movement as nihilistic and as deniers of reason but so far those descriptors apply to yourself. I will not mention relativism because to be honest I am tired already.
      TL;dr: thanks for the practise, you irrational barbarian!
