Japan, officially known as Nippon-koku or Nihon-koku (Japanese: 日本国; literally: the State of Japan) in Japanese, is a country in East Asia made of up 6,852 islands. The country's name literally means "Origin of the Sun," so it is often called the "Land of the Rising Sun." It has a population of about 127 million, making it the tenth most populous country in the world. It has no official language, but the national language is Japanese. Its capital and largest city is Tokyo.
History
Japan was traditionally ruled by successive feudal military dictatorships (shogunates) and was isolated from the rest of the world until 1853 when an American fleet pressured it to open its doors. The Empire of Japan was proclaimed in 1868, and Japan built up its influence as a superpower in Asia through increasing militarism and winning battles against Russia and China.
Japan fought in World War II (1939-1945) on the Axis side, an alliance with Nazi Germany and Italy, until the atomic bombings of two Japanese cities by American forces in 1945 forced it to surrender and end the war.
Japan is now a highly developed country with the third largest economy in the world and very high healthcare standards. It is ruled by a constitutional monarchy, with Emperor Akihito as the head of state and the Prime Minister as the head of government.
Corporal punishment in Japan
Not much is known about the historical use of corporal punishment in Japan, e.g., as a punishment for crimes, for prisoners, in the military, in religious institutions, or in schools.
In the 8th century, corporal punishment criminal laws were imported from China.
Joukei (杖刑), literally "stick punishment," refers to a traditional Japanese corporal punishment style, where the spankee is lying prostrate on the floor, and one or two long paddles are used to beat their buttocks. This method resembles the Chinese method of Chi Zhang (笞杖) and the Korean method of gonjang (곤장 or 棍杖).
Also, a kind of bamboo stick seems to have been used in some cases to beat a tied-up delinquent, as exemplified in the image to the right. Nudity seems to have been avoided.
Spanking in Japan
Spanking as a parenting tool does not have a long and extensive history in Japanese culture as compared to other countries. However, the subject of spanking has fascinated and inspired Japanese artists since the early 20th century as Japan started opening its doors to the rest of the world. After World War II, some parents learned about spanking from American movies and series and began to use it. However, it cannot be said that it has taken root.
One specifically Japanese spanking position is the spanker on the floor in the seiza position, with the spankee sideways over their lap, as a variant of the Western over-the-knee position. This pose is often found in contemporary spanking art, but it is unsure how common it is in practice.
School corporal punishment was made illegal in Japan in 1941, but the practice remains common. A survey carried out in 1998 in Kagawa Prefecture found that about 70% of the high school teachers surveyed considered corporal punishment a necessary form of correction and more than 50% actually disciplined students in this way.[1]
Corporal punishment by coaches in extracurricular sports activities (bukatsu) is also very common. Japanese students spend long hours in bukatsu after school.[2]
Fun spanking in Japanese pop culture
A yaoi paddle is an implement adapted from a boating paddle. It is used by anime fans, often dressed up in cosplay outfits, to spank each other for fun at anime conventions.
Japanese spanking art
Since the 1980s and 1990s, Japan has a great influence on the worldwide genre of spanking art. Its most obvious influence is the Japanese comic and cartoon drawing style, manga, and its stop-motion pendant, anime.
Manga-style drawing has developed into a giant phenomenon that turned thousands of manga fans into active artists: this 'amateur' art is known as fan-art (if characters of commercial series are featured) or doujinshi. See spanking in manga and spanking in anime for mainstream works, and spanking manga and spanking anime for non-mainstream works.
A new kind of Web application for digital online drawing, which is also highly popular in Japan, oekakis, has led to a number of spanking oekakis.
Besides traditional drawing in manga/anime style, AI-generated spanking art has recently become popular among Japanese spanking artists.
Since manga/anime style has become popular worldwide and many spanking artists do not share their nationality, the following list might contain one or two artists who are not actually Japanese.
Japanese spanking artists include Akanamazu, Cross Chan, Frank, Kitora, Erika Kyoukousha, Mr. Sand, Shijou Aya and Taira Kibato.
Spanking video producers
The most prominent companies making adult spanking fetish videos in Japan are listed below. The most popular fantasy scenarios involve all-female stories with French maids and uniformed schoolgirls being disciplined in the classroom and at home.
- Hand-Spanking.com (F/F, website), actresses: Airu, Kiriko, Kurumi, Remi, Shinobu, Shio, Tamao, Mari, Mina, Momo, Nana
