It said that Goro has over-the-top makeup indicating that he is quick-tempered. It also said that red indicates strength, anger, passion, and cruelty or something like that so maybe that's the reason why he said makeup.
Blind Fool you know what? I came here because of YOOOOOOOOOO! and was hoping to see such a comment like yours, was not disappointed. But also I feel educated about Kabuki now. So its a win-win!
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.
I think this explains why pro-wrestling is so popular in Japan. Defined roles (heel and face), exagerated movements, and audience participation of cheering and jeering.
The closest analogue is pantomime in the UK, which has its own traditions, visual signifiers and archetypes. Is it any wonder pro-wrestling parallels both?
I do consider pro-wrestling the most modern iteration of dramatic performance for the masses, so It is not surprising there would be a continuation between old traditions and new dramatic expressions.
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.
That's actually not flute, but Shakuhachi sample from Emu Emulator II keyboard sampler. That's one of most iconic sounds of '80s pop and action movie scores.
@Demetrius Karavasilis 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.
@Demetrius Karavasilis Bro. When the Americans landed on Japan they sure castrated your culture by shoehorning in censorship laws and banning Samurai plays. To say it wasn't widely influenced by the West would be dishonest.
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. (Unknown as unknown to western cultures and audience, a lot of people think it's just for fun but it's actually based on the movement of Kabuki)
Growing up I NEVER liked clowns, I'm not talking about "scary" movie clowns I actually like them, it's the regular goofy looking bastards that gives me the creeps man! Kabuki on the other hand looks badass

Coincidentally, I recently read a manga where a robot girl wishes to have a certain body part. Her creator has never seen one, so he decides to look at some magazines, but they've all been censored. "Th-they defaced my one resource!"
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.
@@masterxak I learned about this during a side job doing the English restream for a Japanese stream. After the event I asked why the two casters never looked at the camera, and what you wrote was essentially my answer.

@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?
@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!
5:00 not in any case: during the 19/20th century the most known italian operas, which were played in theaters, were open to any person that could buy a ticket; it was people's entertainment and it was common to have people eating and drinking during spectacles, especially between acts
This is the guy in the japanese documentaries I loved watching when I was younger. Never thought I'd see his face. I always pictured him different than how he really appears.
"Do you like Kabuki theater?" "No, I don't like Kabuki. I prefer Noh theater." "So you don't like any theater at all?" "No, I just love Noh theater more than Kabuki theater." "But you just said you didn't like Kabuki." "Exactly."
Shakespeare theatre has so much in common with Kabuki , glad that RSC have bridged that gap and done wonderful performances of the bard in the kabuki style
Presenter: "Kabuki is a classical and much-loved form of drama featuring gorgeous costumes, outlandish makeup, and exaggerated movements." Me: ahhhhhh, so like Jojo?
Does anybody know whether in regular times (apart from the covid epidemic) it is easy to find a kabuki show in Japan to watch? Like if I were a tourist and this is what I wanted to see, is it available only in a few places by licensed theaters? or is it like a show that many groups do separately in many places?

Kabuki is like Shakespeare plays. Considered crass and common at the time, and has now become the high class art.

"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!
6:28 wait till he hears about drag queens
@DiscoNight HAHAhaaaaaa, yeah that's for sure, but people do take them as role models nowadays
@Fatima Isra
Or traps. Gotta love them traps
@DiscoNight
“Gen Z fetish?” There’s a lot that worries me about the way you said that tbh.
Sad virgins.
@DiscoNight & @Ugly Barnacle atleast you two didn't swear at eachother
1:05 "I watch Kabuki for the plot"
5:00 not in any case: during the 19/20th century the most known italian operas, which were played in theaters, were open to any person that could buy a ticket; it was people's entertainment and it was common to have people eating and drinking during spectacles, especially between acts
This is the guy in the japanese documentaries I loved watching when I was younger. Never thought I'd see his face. I always pictured him different than how he really appears.
When I do finally take a trip to Japan, a Noh Drama is the first major thing I'm planning on seeing. Hopefully while I'm in Kyoto, my favorite city!
The only eccentric here is the interviewer
The hell is he wearing
He is Kabuking.
This stuff is really cool. I wanna wear those robes low-key 😭😭
I didn't expect to learn so much in 7 minutes. Thanks!
I wish our world would be as peaceful as this reportage.
It's so fascinating ❤️
The Japan is a bliss 💙
Believe me, it's on the top of my list of things to do if I am able to work or visit Japan👍
Now I know why Jiraiya from Naruto had those crazy dramatic announcing entrances
So interesting it left me wanting to know more. I wish we could have preserved something as this old form of theatre in the western culture
"Do you like Kabuki theater?"
"No, I don't like Kabuki. I prefer Noh theater."
"So you don't like any theater at all?"
"No, I just love Noh theater more than Kabuki theater."
"But you just said you didn't like Kabuki."
"Exactly."
👊 fist bump for the MST3k reference. Stay safe and watch out for snakes. 🐍
Absolutely brilliant
Who's on 最初?
Japan has such a rich culture, worthy of being appreciated
Thanks for showing up in my recommended, I've now remembered my studies on commedia dell'arte and I'm surprised by some of the similarities
came to learn about kabuki, left very interested in this old form of art
2:35
The poses! Don’t tell me, is that where Jojo gets its poses?! It’s *mie* all along!
Joseph: “OH MY GOD!!!!”
stop
“No no no no no”
DyProxus *yus yus yus yus yus yus*
No, they're based on poses in fashion magazines.
Probably some degree of inspiration but Araki is inspired by like a extreme wide range of things so probably not.
I love how the two analysts are just conversing like two knowledgeable friends on something they both see the value of.
This is the definition of a genial conversation
Very nice video. I like to see those gentlemen talk about these subjects.

I came for the Animal Crossing Villager stayed for the history
Thank you CZcams for recommending me this video, I feel enriched learning about Kabuki
this was honestly just kinda cool to watch, like im glad i watched this
2:45 So basically, he is doing a jojo pose?
Red: Strength and Justice
Blue: Means evil
Me: So that's why Valve always showed off the red team in TF2
Kabuki theater is amazing and glorious and bad ass all at once!
Shakespeare theatre has so much in common with Kabuki , glad that RSC have bridged that gap and done wonderful performances of the bard in the kabuki style
Everybody gangsta until they see Kabuki in the bathroom mirror at 3 AM.
Presenter: "Kabuki is a classical and much-loved form of drama featuring gorgeous costumes, outlandish makeup, and exaggerated movements."
Me: ahhhhhh, so like Jojo?
Holy shit you're right
これは良いビデオです。
Anime makes a lot more sense when you think about it as an extension of this stuff
Imagine how sexually repressed you would have to be to get morally corrupted by that.
Well we are talking about people in the 1600's afterall
You realise this is 500 fucking years ago, right?
@@user-ef1qy9zq1g Of course, but whenever it was has no relevance to the point I was making :)
beautiful form of art
Does anybody know whether in regular times (apart from the covid epidemic) it is easy to find a kabuki show in Japan to watch? Like if I were a tourist and this is what I wanted to see, is it available only in a few places by licensed theaters? or is it like a show that many groups do separately in many places?
I think there are a theater in tokyo that only shows kabuki plays
Hollywood and the whole world:
Blue means heaven and peace, so it is the color of Goodness and Heroism.
Japanese: We don't do that here
