Why is Alice such a popular fairy tale character in Japan?
>>
Go ask Alice
I think she'll know
When logic and proportion
Have fallen sloppy dead
And the White Knight is talking backwards
And the Red Queen's off with her head
Remember what the dormouse said
Feed your head
Feed your head

Alice and Joan of Arc for some reason.
>>
>>282861574
It’s isekai

>>282861617
Why not Dorothy or Wendy then?

The disney animated movie? Japan loves old 2D disney.
>>
>>282861574
she just is in general around the world.

>>282861574
because Carol was a pedophile and Japan loves pedophilia

There doesn't seem to be any cases of him actually doing anything at least.

Japan loves lolis

>>282861574
Early cultural exchange that stuck around and stayed popular. Maybe helped by being a children's book that's not boring as shit to read.
Question is did any early Japanese culture stick with the danish?

cute loli white girl on isekai adventure
>>
>>282861693
every person from the 19th century would be considered a pedo these days. they loved seeing naked children back then.
>>
>>282861886
there was nothing obscene about seeing naked children until later 70ths when it did become bad because of rise of pedophiles

Carol had to hide and suppress his urges young daugther of his friend, thus just observed her and wrote a book about "taking her to the Wonderland"
>>
>>282861574
She is hot and sexy.

Not false

>>282861574
prolly cuz its escapism, other disney flics are "oh i became a princess" or "im a woman who became a warrior" or "i found a genie" or whatever while alice ditches this bitch ass reality for a reality that is actually even more of a bitch ass but at least the suckery isnt boring as shit like the modern corporate hellscape(especially relevant in japan)
>>
>>282861693
No he wasn't
The pictures of naked children were the fashion at the time
Old grandmas collected them and shit

Does Alice's Adventures In Wonderland even count as a fairy tale? It's not a story passed down through folklore. It is a book written by some guy.
>>
>>282863317
it deserve a faithful remake aside from modernizing the lineart.
>>
>>282861574
They love crazy women
>>
>>282864158
It doesn't. You are right, it's just a novel written like any other novella of the 19th century.
>>
>>282861746
>>282861693
Correct
He was kinda idolfagging-type pedophile
The type that find fucking as abhorrent

It is just a book, but Japan considers it as a fairy tale. See: anything involving a bunch of fairy tales inexplicably using Alice as the title

Elevens have no idea about Europe, who would have thought.

does the japanese translation of the book still have good wordplay?

South korea too actually. I think her design and concept is just that iconic. Shame that whenever americans try to depict her it's always uglified or non appealing.
>>
>>282861877
Just like Ernest Thompson Seton and Lovecraft

It became one by having adaptations based on other adaptations and/or other supplemental material without referencing or even knowing the original work.

They did make a version of the novels with animesque designs.
>>
In some VN the writer mentions he's impressed someone would write a novel intended for one person. Also japanese writers tend to like children's books.
>>
Not just Alice but the whole Wonderland theme stuck around long enough it became a world of it’s own with many adapting their own version of it in other stories and games. It’s a good concept for a fantasy.
>>
>>282866467
I wish they had good designs
>>
>>282861574
you make it sound like this is not the case everywhere else
>>
>>282868622
Isn't usually Snow White more popular?
>>
>>282861574
Lack of a prince, for modern Japs Fairy tail princess are like idols meaning that Alice is the only idol without a boyfriend. You can see how she eclipses the rest in that case
>>
Alice in Wonderland was, believe it or not, one of the first books to be bought over during the Westernization. As you can imagine, the concepts and ideas of the book were absolutely mind-blowing for the average Japanese of the era.
One of the first, one of the most accessible, all for a country which was starving for Western content.
Look up Ai-chan no Yume Monogatari for more details.
>>
>>282861574
The Japanese are the biggest cute things and child enjoyers.

>>282864452
>except boys
What a faggot. Time to draw trap Alices, bet he would love that.
