Differences between Japanese Fantasy and Traditional Western Fantasy

Fantasy is a unique concept of China, which originated from the "Fantasy Martial Arts Enlightenment" initiated by Rosen at the end of last century. Its style is similar to RPG games, and its representative works include Charm Story.

Fantasy is a relatively international concept, with the description of grand and different worlds as the main content. Besides RPG style, there are bigger things such as politics and war. Zichuan, a domestic online text, belongs to fantasy, and the international masterpiece is Fire and Ice by George R.R. Martin.

The scope of magic is quite extensive, including the school of magical realism, besides "magical fantasy" such as Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. The technique of this school is to combine shocking reality with trance illusion, and try to describe and reflect complex historical, social and political phenomena through extremely exaggerated and alternating artistic brushstrokes.
