“As well as Japanese animation, technology has a huge influence on Japanese society, and also Japanese novels. It's because before, people tended to think that ideology or religion were the things that actually changed people, but it's been proven that that's not the case.

So in that sense, it's become a theme in Japanese culture.” PeopleThinkingWellsHas BeensCultureCasesTechnologyNovelInfluenceChangedHugeIdeologyThemeProvenAnimationJapanese CultureJapanese Animation Author:Mamoru Oshii
“I was always interested in technology. When personal computers came out, I was one of the first to pick one up and begin playing with it. My hobbies tend to be not about going fishing or hiking, but about playing on machines. Just like some people like helicopters and tanks and cars, I like technology a lot.” PeopleTechnologyCarComputer Author:Mamoru Oshii
