In 2017, Ogata Takaomi’s “A Hungry Lion” (2017) explored the danger and the power of the image on mental health of high-school students. This narrative subtly underlined the problematic dimension of the image in contemporary Japanese society. Apparently, Takaomi was not the only on to highlight the problematic effects the dimension of the image can have in the Japanese society. In the same year, Shugo Fujii released his socially engaged narrative “Red Line Crossing”, which, contrary to Takeomi’s narrative, explores the effect of the image on teachers.
