- When I was reading the main paragraph (introduction) of its wiki, I saw some words that are considerably biased.
- "generally considered to be one of the most influential organizations...."
- Most of its sources came from their official website which looks like it has not been updated for a while.

LGBT Themes in Anime
editLGBT themes include lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans themes in anime. The fluid state of animation allows flexibility of animated characters to perform multiple roles at once. [1]The rise of LGBT in anime and manga came around as a result of fan work of anime fans between two male characters which has created an industry for same-sex intimacy in manga and anime.[2]This include characters or LGBT themes that explores gender and sexuality that goes around hetero-normative norms. In particular, specific genres of anime focused about same-sex intimacy: yaoi, yuri, shoujo-ai, shonen-ai, bara and etc.[3] There are multiple sub genres within the genres to categorize stories for a specific consumers and themes. LGBT-related manga found its origins from fan culture where fans create an "alternative universe" where they paired their favorite characters together. Many of the earliest works of yaoi/yuri traced its origins from their years as dōjinshi.[4] The rise of yaoi and yuri works has also reached drawback as censorship laws in Japan make it extremely hard for mangakas, a Japanese word for manga artists,[5] and other persons creating work related to LGBT themes. Anime that contains elements that would not be appropriate for children was changed to meet international demands. However, publishing companies continued to expand their repertorie to include yuri and yaoi, and conventions were created to form a community and culture for fans of yaoi and yuri work.[6]
History
editIn the 1960’s, a group of women mangaka, called the Magnificent 24 or the Year 24 group who heavily influenced the genre of shoujo manga.[4] Their work introduced philosophical and radical ideas including themes of gender and sexuality. Moto Hagio, Yumiko Oshima and Keiko Takemiya were one of the few artists associated with the Magnificent 24 Group.[4]
The Magnificent 24 group referred to women mangaka who were born in the Year 24 Shōwa (1949) and the exact membership is not defined.[7] The mangaka in this period influenced the sub genres of shoujo manga and they created a space for women artists in manga. [7]These artists challenged the conception about shojo manga adding sci-fi, historical and dramatic elements which would forever change the landscape of how readers consumed shoujo manga.[7] Ryoko Yamagishi’s Shiroi Heya no Futari (白い部屋のふたり) is credited as the first manga to portray a lesbian couple. Conversely, Keiko Takemiya was the first to show a male-male kiss in shojo manga in her 1970 work, “In the Sunroom.”
Many of the earliest works of manga and anime was also inspired by the Takarazuka Revue which was was a Japanese all-female troupe that had some of their actors played as women. [8] Osama Tezuka who grew up in Takarazuka where the Revue was located can be seen to have had impact on his work. [9] In his work, Princess Knight where the main character was found to fluctuate between feminine and masculine identities. The main character is a girl who dresses up as a “boy” to prevent the villain, Duke Duralmin, from inheriting the throne. [9]
Lgbt in Japan
editSame-sex activity was briefly criminalized in Japan’s history between 1872 and 1880[10]. In 2015, some cities offer symbolic “partnership certificates” to recognize the relationships of the same-sex couples.[11] In retrospect, Japan’s culture and major religions did not have hostility against homosexuality but many political parties and popular figures does not openly support or opposed LGBT rights. Many monasteries and temples in Japan accepted pederastic relationship between a monk and most often a young man or an acolyte.[12] It was also customary in samurai class to use pederasty between a young apprentice and an experienced master.[12] During the Edo period, same’s sex relationship were widely presented in the culture of the period in art, literature and on the stage. [12]
Many Japanese authors dating Pre-Meiji had shown homosexuality in text. Ueda Akinari’s short ghost story “Kikka no Chagiri” (Chrysanthemums Tryst”) was published in 1776, and which was a tale between male lovers.
Genres in Anime about Same-Sex Intimacy
editHomoerotic male/male manga was created primarily by female artists for female consumers and it originated as a sub genre of shoujo.[6] In the 1980’s, Japanese fans began writing male/male homoerotic manga which romantically paired their two favorite male characters together. Yaoi became extremely popular over the course of the 1990’s.[2]
The term “yaoi” was the short term for yama nashi ochi nashi imi nashi,” or “no climax, no ending, no meaning” and was primarily used to describe male/male relationship between two favorite characters.[2] It has become an umbrella term to describe male/male manga.[2]
There are diverse motivations for consuming yaoi: rejection of the patriarchal norms about sex and gender, affirming or being part of the LGBTQ community, rejecting gender binarism, and enjoying an alternative romance narratives that avoids problematic stereotypes.[2]
In 1971, saw the creation of the first Japanese commercial gay magazine.[14] The editor, Ito Bungaku, included a page for lesbians and in which names lesbians, yurizoku, or lily tribe. Yuri is the Japanese word for “lily” and lily became the de facto symbol for lesbian and lesbian theme.[14]
Censorship and Changes in Anime Distribution
editUnder Article 175 of the Criminal Code (1907) in Japan prohibits a person who distributes, sells, or displays in public an obscene document, drawing or other person.[15] This included prohibiting exposure of pubic hair, the adult genitalia and sexual act. However, manga creators developed another ways to depict naked bodies and sex without showing pubic hair. However, the law is rarely applied and the creators and publishers who were fined are few in numbers.[16]
In 1998, negative attention turned to manga and anime after 1989’s “Otaku Serial Killer” where the serial killer believed to possess large amounts of sexually explicit anime and a participant of Comiket, Japan’s largest convention for fan manga.[17]
The aftermath of the killings resulted to confiscating thousands of doujinshis and arrests of several shop owners.[18]
No serious inquiries has been made about “virtual child pornography” in Japan, but it has put doujinshis or fan creators cross hairs with anti-child pornography laws.[19]
Censorship in the United States
editAnime was distributed to the United States in the 1960's because of a demand of enthusiastic fans and college students.[20] Osamu Tezuka's Astro Boy (1963) and Speed Racer were the earliest anime series that was shown to the American audience.[20] During at this time, there is an increasing collaboration between American and Japanese companies to market anime to American consumers.[20]
Sailor Moon
editWhen Sailor Moon was released in the United States, elements of the story was stripped away because Optimum Productions, The Canadian company who produced the English Version of Sailor Moon claimed that the “product is not suitable for children.”[13] Under the standards set out by the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commissions, Sailor Moon censored some parts to meet its standards. Here are examples of parts in anime that was censored and altered in the North American version.[13]
- Zoisite, who is a heterosexual man was in a homosexual relationship with Malachite in the seires.[13] In the English dubbed version, Zoisite is turned into a woman, turning the queer relationship into a heterosexual relationship.[13]
- The relationship between Sailor Uranus/Hakaru and Neptune/Michiru was depicted as ‘cousins’ who are simply ‘very close.’ The Japanese version, they are depicted as lovers.[13]
- Fisheye who dressed presented feminine is changed into a woman in the English dub of the anime. Scenes that demonstrated Fisheye signs of masculinity were cropped.[13]
Cardcaptor Sakura
editWhen Cardcaptor Sakura ran in North America, many of its scenes which feature same-sex initmacy and/or relationship were removed and altered. [21] This includes Tomoya's crush on Sakura and the same-sex intimacy between Touyo, Sakura's older brother, and Yukito.
Examples of LGBT Themes in Anime
editThe series approach to gender are flexible and according to Bailey's " the categorical definition of masculinity and femininity are limiting and unnecessary."[3] Utena is a character who subverts the assumptions about her sex. The main protagonist, Utena, should be "jumping" on the chance of marrying a prince, but she looks up for him as a role model. At school, she wears an off-shot of the male uniform and competes alongside with male peers in variety of athletic activities.
According to Bailey,[3] Utena does not want to "become" a prince in the literal sense of the word. When she claimed that she wants to become a prince, Utena refers to exhibit the qualities the prince reflected: courage,compassion, strength.[3]
Lesbian characters are introduced halfway through the series, and their relationship was treated the same way as other heterosexual relationship in the show. Haruka and Michiru, who are Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune, are a couple who live and cohabitate with each other. The author has confirmed that they were a couple.[1]
The character, Haruka, express masculine characteristics and she is portrayed in the video wearing the male version of her school's uniform.[3] She is often mistaken as a man, but she often doesn't mind. However, Haruka becomes more feminized when she transformed into her Sailor Uranus's character. While her partner, Michiru, is coded to be more feminine partner and they are often seen with each other.[3]
CLAMP's works
editNumerous works of CLAMP, a Japanese manga artists group, explored themes of relationship with disregard of gender or sex.[22] They began creating manga as dojinshis often exploring same-sex relationships. Many of their works such as Miyuki-chan in Wonderland and Tokyo Babylon has same-sex intimacy as their central themes.[22] In Cardcaptor Sakura, the main protaganist Sakura and Syaoran share a mutual infatuation with androgynous-looking Yukito. [23] Tomoyo, who is the best friend of Sakura, has also shown to hold feelings to Sakura.[24] Cardcaptor also shown same-sex intimacy between Touyo, Sakura's older brother and Yukito. In episode 65, when Yukito's health is weakening due to the weakening of Yue's power (his alter-form), Touyo decided to give up his power to save Yukito from disappearing.[24]
Fandom Culture and Demographics
editMotivations for Consuming Yaoi/Yuri Anime
editPagliassotti[2] conducted the first research on yaoi viewings/motivations for Anglophone readers outside Japan. According from her research, she found ten motive distinctions, “Pure” love without gender, pro-gay attitude/ forbidden and transgressive love, identification (self-analysis), melodramatic (emotional elements), dislike for standard shoujo romance, a female-oriented romantic/erotic genre, pure escapism/lack of reality, art/ aesthetics,pure entertainment and arousing, sexuality titillating.[2] However, there are also diverse motivations for consuming yaoi manga which is complicated by cultural and legal differences. Other motivations for consuming yaoi manga is looking for media to challenge patriarchal norms and gender binarism.[2]
Accessibility to yaoi and yuri work also depend on international laws which also impact the motivations for consuming anime.[2] For example, an introduction of BL (Boy's Love) to the United State market was less likely to happen because depictions of male/male eroticism and sex in boy's love is met with consternation when comics in United States at that time, were attributed to children.[25]
Among yaoi readers, many of their readers are women, more specifically, teenage girls or young women. [26]Among, yuri readers, there is a divide between men and women readers which depends on the target audience.[26]
In 2010 the yaoi industry alone has an estimated worth of 21.3 billion (over 180 million USD) annually.[27]
Women make the majority of yaoi readers in the West, accounting for 89% and most of the readers are 18-24 accounting 55%.[28]
Among yuri readers in the West, about 46% of the readership identified themselves as heterosexual women.[28]
Fujoshi
editFujoshi is a reclaimed word to describe female fans who enjoy media or fan works related to romantic relationship of men. It’s a term that has a homonym for a Japanese girl meaning “rotten girls.”[29] Japanese women who take part of reading yaoi manga are most often heterosexual women for pleasure not it’s not particulalry political. The male-make intimacy provided a space for Japanese women to explore their intimacy in private.[29]
Doujinshi
editDojinshi refers specifically to written content, typically in the form of manga, novels or magazines. [30] Printing has become inexpressive in the early 1970's which has led to the increase of doujinshi sales.[31] During this period, companies began to publish and sell doujinshi[31]

Annotated Bibliography
editJonny Imerman is the founder of Imerman Angel. He was struck of testicular cancer in October 2001 and recovered and has been cancer-free for about ten years. However, he found that it was difficult to adapt to society even after he recovered from cancer. Thus, he founded a mentor program that directs cancer patients with survivors to assist them to their journey to recovery. He thinks that recovery is more than cancer-free but being able to have the resources to return into their normal lives.[32]
" I've been there. I beat it. And so will you."[33] Jonny Imerman, founder of Imerman's Angel, stated. Imerman's Angel directs cancer patients with cancer survivors to provide assistance through their journey from cancer to being cancer-free. He was struck by testicular cancer at the age of 26 and along his journey to recover, he found cancer patients like him who were struggling with their sickness. He decided to build an organization that connects cancer patients with cancer survivors for guidance and mental support. Imerman's Angel connects patients with mentor who live in the same city using a database of more than 4,000 survivors. [33]
Patients that receive a cancer diagnosis need a good support system to cope. Cancer is a life-changing event, which affects patients differently. Patients experience a variety of symptom: from depression and anxiety to nausea and anorexia because of their cancer and/or treatment. These experiences will often leave patients feeling irritable, in pain and unable to cooperate. For these reasons, nonprofit organizations (and other support agencies) like Imerman’s Angels offer one-on-one support to patients.[51]
Cancer affects young patients (and youths with parents who have cancer) on an intense level. Helping them understand what is happening and what they can expect can be very difficult and requires a clear explanation. The stress of their experiences with cancer can lead to risky or rebellious behavior in youths and is a sign that they may need help. This highlights the importance of support resources like Imerman’s Angels: a group that pairs a cancer patient to a cancer survivor who serves as a mentor.[52]
This source has valuable statistical data that can be added to the wikipedia page. This data pertains to the year 2012 and can be a part of a measuring stick to show the growth of the organization. in 2012, Imerman Angels had a database of more than 4,000 survivor mentors had has made over 8,000 matches in more than 65 countries. [53]

"Support, through a therapist or a group like Imerman Angels, which offers mentors to survivors, patients and caregivers, is key, experts said." The hardest parts for some patients who are going through chemotherapy are after their last treatment. Often survivors of cancer have a difficult time after surviving cancer. Studies show that the affects of cancer continue to rollover and can cause depression even after a patient has beat cancer. Survivors try to return to their normal lives but cannot seem to feel "normal" again. [55]
Imerman Angels plans to launch a website that is entirely in spanish. By having a spanish website they hope it will help the latino community and their families. Currently, the have their first bilingual supporter, Christina Benaiges. [56]
Annette Sollars, owner of Eye Want, was 45 when she was aware that she carried the breast cancer gene. Ms. Sollars states that “Medicaid paid to have my cancer removed; it would not pay to rebuild me, nor would my Obamacare, You walk out of the office, you’re done. Go figure it out on your own. And that has to be my largest complaint about the whole, entire process.” Sollars has been a Imerman’s angel for the past six years where she served as a mentor to others. Imerman Angels is a local cancer support community that matches cancer patients with survivors and caregivers. Sollars is in the process of opening a modern medicine shop that focuses on post-surgery wear for customers with any condition. [57]
Imerman had great support from his family and friends. This life experience led Imerman to the conclusion that no patient should never have to take this journey alone. By 2006, Imerman Angels was formally launched, with a main focus on one to one support for the cancer community. Imerman Angels is headquartered in Chicago, but has been gaining support in Los Angeles and is working on having full-time presence in New York. Although one-on-one matches was the primary focus, some Angels have more than one patient at a time. Many cancer fighters who beat the disease and have been mentored by Imerman Angels end up becoming Angels themselves. Imerman Angels is a completely free service funded by private and corporate donations.[34]
