I, however, must say that I do not have any love for young adult anime. It makes perfect sense that many anime fans were excited by the news of the theatrically-refined version coming next spring, which is to be followed by the second TV series.

Quite the contrary, I appreciate it as a heart-warming story of teenage girls' love for music as well as their high ambition aimed at winning the national competition. I am not implying that the anime Sound! Euphonium is child-porn. Yes, it’s quite easy to see that the girl's image has been decorated with many sexual and seductive hints within the anime adaptation, though in the original novel, she is a simple country girl in a suburb around Kyoto.

The brass horn euphonium appears cold and metallic against her warm-colored flesh, as if a phallic object is just being inserted between her young thighs. We see a Japanese high school girl, barefoot, long slender bare legs and a seductive pose (in a classroom!), giving up an up from under look, in the style of Marlene Dietrich from the 1930 film The Blue Angel. Let's take a closer look at the image on the right. The novel is now available in Japan with the new cover illustration taken from the anime adaption. Let's take a look at the image on the left: the cover illustration of the young adult novel 'Sound! Euphonium: Welcome to the Brass Band Club of North Uji High School.' On the right is a new promotional illustration of the anime adaptation of the same title by Kyoto Animation Studios. KK approached AWN previously about working together to translate, edit and publish pieces regarding what the penetrating anime critic considers an indefensible position taken by some anime and manga publishers in Japan. This most recent controversy began with a November 30 mention on KK's Twitter, which criticized, from the child-porn viewpoint, an illustration from a popular anime show Sound! Euphonium. KK wrote an insightful analysis in reference to a hot controversy over Japanese society’s insensitivity to child-pornographic visual elements subliminally inserted into anime and manga. Editor’s Note: This is an edited translation of the article Kumi Kaoru, an anime historian living in Japan, contributed to the Huffington Post Japan this past December.
