Yaoi, a popular form of fanwork in Japan, refers to women-oriented productions that borrow male characters from source texts and develop their male bonding into a romantic relationship. This paper focuses on yaoi that transposes the diegesis from the original world to an alternative one. This diegetic transposition in yaoi also carries with it a transformation of plots and character traits. While this type of yaoi is not regarded as particularly similar to the source text, it is identified as derivative work rather than independent work. What is the identifiable derivative element of the source text? Why is the diegetic transposition needed in yaoi? Using dōjinshi, or self-published work, of One Piece, a popular pirate adventure manga in Japan, as an example, this paper investigates the mechanism and function of narrative transformation, especially the diegetic transposition, in yaoi.  \n1. Introduction  \nThis paper investigates how yaoi deviates from and conforms to source texts through an analysis of manga fanwork drawn in Japanese comics style1. Yaoi, a popular form offanwork in Japan, borrows male characters from source texts and develops their bonds into romantic relationships. It belongs to a genre of novels, comics or videogames produced by and for women, that focuses on (mainly romantic) relationships between male characters. This genre is variously called shōnen-ai, June, Boys’ Love (BL), or yaoi2. The present study refers to yaoi—the object of investigation—as secondary fanwork and BL as the original commercial work.  \nIn Japan, previous studies of yaoi/BL have mostly been conducted within the frameworks of feminism, gender studies, and queer studies. Kaneda (2007) summarizes yaoi/BL studies in Japan since the 1980s as follows: The perspectives on yaoi/BL in these studies have shifted from “negative aspects,” such as misogyny or escapism, to “positive ones,” such as subverting heterosexual order or providing pleasure for women (Kaneda 2007: 169) . Moreover, Fujimoto (2007) notes that recent yaoi/BL studies have focused not on the reasons why women enjoy male–male narratives but on the functions/effects of this genre for/on women (Fujimoto 2007: 44) . These remarks suggest that previous research has contained a great deal of discussion about yaoi/BL in relation to women’s gender and/or sexuality.  \nThe present study examines how yaoi relates to source texts, not what women seek from it. Since yaoi narrative is produced by quoting from, appropriating, and adapting source texts, there is a need to investigate the  \n1.

In 2009 alone, BL publishers published 12 or 13 magazine titles monthly, and official circulation was  estimated at around 100,000 to 150,000 copies per title (Hori 2009: 120) .  \n* Ph.D., Specially Appointed Research Associate, Urban-Culture Research Center, Graduate School of Literature and Human Sciences, Osaka City University. 3-3-138 ","cbCaihsNFO3StrZp","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihsNFO3StrZp","pdf",324176,1,17,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n## Prior research on yaoi/BL\n## Research focus and key problem\n## Framework and methodology\n## Example: One Piece dōjinshi","[{\"question\":\"What does the paper investigate about yaoi fanwork?\",\"answer\":\"It investigates how yaoi deviates from and conforms to source texts by analyzing manga fanwork, especially how narratives are transformed through adaptation.\"},{\"question\":\"What is diegetic transposition in the context of this study?\",\"answer\":\"Diegetic transposition refers to shifting the narrative’s spatiotemporal world from the source text into an alternative one, which then reshapes plot and character traits.\"},{\"question\":\"Why does the study use One Piece dōjinshi as an example?\",\"answer\":\"It uses One Piece dōjinshi to examine the mechanism and function of narrative transformation in yaoi, particularly the role of diegetic transposition in derivative fanworks.\"}]","Deviation and Conformity in Fanwork -
