Since the 2010s, Japan has become a force of cultural globalization through the exportation of its popular media. As Japanese popular media became desirable in the West, scholars have marked a "shifting identity" in Japanese transnational media from a global aesthetic to one that is now "distinctly Japanese." Drawing on ludomusicology and sound studies, my thesis examines how "distinctly Japanese" representations of Japan have been reworked and retransmitted through popular media, particularly video games, created in the United States. My research focuses on three separate case studies on video games that represent "distinct Japanese-ness" from both Japanese and U.S. game developers. Beginning with representations of Japan from Japanese game studios, Ryu Ga Gotoku and From Software, I then turn to Ghost of Tsushima (2020), a U.S.-made video game portraying the island of Tsushima during the first Mongol invasion of Japan. By examining the exchange of transnational media products and their methods of representation, I assert that the exchange of media can create a loop of representation, in which ideas are transmitted and returned to their point origin.
