Japan
From Spanking Art
Japan is a country in East Asia with a population of about 127 million. Its official language is Japanese and its capital and largest city is Tokyo.
[edit] Spanking in Japan
Spanking as a parenting tool, as far as we know, does not have a long and extensive history in Japanese culture as it has in western countries. However the subject has obviously fascinated and inspired Japanese artists since the beginning of the 20th century.
[edit] Japanese spanking art
Since the 1980s and 1990s, Japan has a great influence on the worldwide genre spanking art. Its most obvious influence is the Japanese comic and cartoon drawing style, manga, and its stop-motion pendant, anime.
Manga style drawing has developed into a giant phenomenon that turned thousands of manga fans into active artists: this 'amateur' art is known as fan-art (if characters of commercial series are featured) or doujinshi.
See spanking in manga and spanking in anime for mainstream works, and spanking manga and spanking anime for non-mainstream works.
A new kind of Web application for digital online drawing, which is also highly popular in Japan, oekakis, has led to a number of spanking oekakis.
Japanese spanking artists include Akanamazu, Cross Chan, Kitora, Erika Kyoukousha, Mr. Sand, Shijou Aya and Taira Kibato.
