Summary:

"Kawayoku, a hybrid research area, explores the intersections of cuteness culture, digital warfare and the aestheticisation of violence in an era of semiotic ambiguity and post-truth. From the fetishization of Weapons Grade Waifus and anthropomorphic warships in games like Azur Lane to the "Israeli" Defense Forces' TikTok strategies, the essay reveals how cuteness and entertainment serve as tools of domestication, converging state-nationalism with the impish, and the uniform with the algorithm."-- provided by distributor.
