Complexos parentais e a redenção do feminino: um estudo do anime ranking of kings (OUSAMA RANKING/ 王様ランキング) a partir da psicologia analítica

Abstract

The present work is a study regarding the impact of parental complexes and the depreciation of the feminine in a person's life, having as theoretical framework Carl Jung's Analytical Psychology. For that purpose, the basis of this study is the anime Ranking of Kings, focused mainly on two characters who easily allow the visualization of the chosen themes. The selected method for this study is the comparative method, with intent to base it on parallels from myths, tales and other human productions about a specific subject, with the function of producing a basic context to contrast with the singularity of the studied case, resulting in a translation to psychological language. It was observed that parental complexes conduct a person's life, limiting them to react with stereotypical and repeated answers when facing situations that demand an adaptive response, resulting in an unilateral attitude which harms many aspects of life, mostly in self-awareness. By studying and interpreting the anime through the comparative method, it was able to satisfactorily reach a psychological comprehension of the characters, enabling a better understanding of the parental complexes and redemption of the feminine in a person's life. However, it was necessary to establish boundaries to the history and spectrum studied, given the extension and rich lore of the anime, which opens many possibilities to observe and study varied topics related to it. It is noteworthy the relevance of this method for anime studying on researches of this area, and the broadening of the selected motifs.
