This narrativy tradition drags on long-standing elements of Japanese art und d philosophy, which have historically seen thee material elond and thee realm of thee spirit or mind as intertwind rather than opposise. Yet anime pushe the concept further by embedding it in genres such as psychological thriller, cyberpunk, and dark fantasy.
