metadata.value: Japanese comics creator Ikeda Ryoko and writer Mishima Yukio are far from each other
  in their views, but some similarities can be found in their works that sometimes exceed
  the boundary of mere coincidence. These are hardly conscious repetitions, but rather
  manifestations of deep traditionalism in the works of Japanese culture of the twentieth
  century. The study of this issue is relevant due to the fact that it allows us to identify the
  moral bases of the aestheticization of death in the works of Japanese culture. There are
  quite a lot of similar motifs with Mishima’s aesthetics in the analyzed anime “Dear Brother
  (Oniisama e…)” (1991–1992), which suggests that it’s not just a coincidence. Some of
  these motifs include: the attraction to death; the addictive nature of beauty, which in
  this world is destined only to perish; the demonization and aestheticization of same-sex
  relationships, as well as the great influence of European decadence aesthetics. There
  are also motifs of revolution and youth. Among the more specific motifs, there is the
  theme of mirror reflections. In our article we will try to conduct a comparative analysis
  of the aesthetic system of the two authors, moving from the analysis of symbolic details
  and moral value oppositions of this anime to aesthetic generalizations, which will
  help to understand the continuity and difference between the aesthetics of Ikeda and
  Mishima. The novelty of the research lies in the comparison and conceptual translation
  of the aesthetics of one author into the language of another. While Ikeda is a more apolitical
  author favoring “little man” values, Mishima prefers more heroic attitudes. While
  Mishima follows aesthetics to their logical conclusion, Ikeda prefers ethical values, as
  she bases many of her works on Russian classics. Mishima, on the other hand, prefers
  Oscar Wilde as an author not affected by moralizing. Ikeda and Mishima draw different
  ethical conclusions from the same aesthetic material.
