Abstract

Even at the dawn of human civilization, there was a cult of death, which depending on the worldview of a people, called and represented death differently. With the appearance of religion this phenomenon was interpreted with theological positions. Dispute about the nature of death and its meaning as philosophers and thinkers. The phenomenon of "death" was depicted in the literature, arts, theater, cinema. The death is depicted in recently appeared japan cultural phenomenon of anime. In this paper we consider the phenomenon of "death" its image, sense and development in anime culture. Death is an inherent part of many anime plots. Depending on the nature of the character, it can be interpreted in different ways: as a main theme, as inevitable as fear, as a loss as the result of a lifetime as a mere moment. Each new character treats its own way, bringing in the anime its own unique philosophy.
