摘要

Japanese anime has created many Chinese images. This article analyzes 109 Japanese anime since the Second World War and summarizes the characteristics, identity and role of Chinese characters in animation in various periods. In the 1970s, there is almost no Chinese character in Japanese anime. In the 1980s and 1990s, due to the increasing frequency of Sino-Japanese exchanges, Chinese characters appeared many times and were protagonists with more positive roles. In the 21st century, with Sino-Japanese friction increasing, there are more and more bad characters of Chinese characters. With the deeper exchanges between two countries, the characters and characteristics of Chinese become rich.
