Nasu No Yoichi - in Popular Culture

In Popular Culture

Nasu no Yoichi appears in the manga Drifters by Kouta Hirano. He is the age of nineteen and appears very feminine. He appears at first as a female - or, at least, the other characters believe that he is one, which leads to some confusion later on.

Naso no Yoichi also appears briefly in the Studio Ghibli film Pom Poko, when an elderly raccoon shapeshifts into him to re-enact the incident to celebrate his 999th birthday.

Famous quotes containing the words popular culture, popular and/or culture:

    “The lowest form of popular culture—lack of information, misinformation, disinformation, and a contempt for the truth or the reality of most people’s lives—has overrun real journalism. Today, ordinary Americans are being stuffed with garbage.”
    —Carl Bernstein (b. 1944)

    “The new sound-sphere is global. It ripples at great speed across languages, ideologies, frontiers and races.... The economics of this musical esperanto is staggering. Rock and pop breed concentric worlds of fashion, setting and life-style. Popular music has brought with it sociologies of private and public manner, of group solidarity. The politics of Eden come loud.”
    —George Steiner (b. 1929)

    “I wish to speak a word for Nature, for absolute freedom and wildness, as contrasted with a freedom and culture merely civil,—to regard man as an inhabitant, or a part and parcel of Nature, rather than as a member of society. I wish to make an extreme statement, if so I may make an emphatic one, for there are enough champions of civilization: the minister and the school committee and every one of you will take care of that.”
    —Henry David David (1817–1862)
