Stereotypes

In Fayes class, we explored different stereotypes and what the media might try to sell to these type of typical people. I wrote up what type of films would appeal most to the stereotypical people below and why I think they would particularity like them.

Here is my stereotype. Some people refer to me as a 'Weeaboo' due to me watching Japanese cartoons known as Anime. The typical media products to sell to someone who appears to be a Weeaboo are as following:

Film(s): Spirited Away, Howls moving castle and My Neighbour Totoro are popular examples of films Weeaboos tend to watch and enjoy. Weeaboo's will tend to watch anything that is Japan/Anime based.

Game(s): Dangan Ronpa and the Persona game series are common games Weeaboo's tend to play as it consists of the Japanese art style. 

TV Program(s): There are no TV programs in particular that Weeaboo's mostly watch, however, they do watch an alarming amount of anime (Japanese cartoon.) Weeaboo's are known for watching 'Mainstream' (something that is highly popular and well known) animes such as: Black Buter, Sword Art Online and Attack on Titan.

Other Products: Weeaboo's tend to spend an astronomical amount on money on anime products. These being for example, figures of a character from an anime, clothing that reference anime, anime DVD's, cosplay (dressing up as a character from a film, anime, comic ect) and lolita (extremely expensive, typically not normal, 'cute' clothing.)
