The Japanese entertainment industry is defined by powerful talent agencies (like the historically influential Johnny & Associates, now SMILE-UP., and STARTO ENTERTAINMENT).

In the 2000s, the Japanese government officially adopted the "Cool Japan" initiative to use pop culture as a diplomatic tool. Studio Ghibli (Hayao Miyazaki) became the Walt Disney of the East, winning Oscars for Spirited Away.

The grandmother watching in Osaka and the teenager watching on a phone in a capsule hotel are consuming the same spectacle, filtered through different layers of reality.
