Desviándose del canon: un análisis de lo <i>mangaesco</i> y <i>animesco</i> en el manga y <i>anime</i> de <i>Aku no Hana</i> (<i>Las Flores del Mal</i>)

The manga-anime partnership is widely known to both academic researchers and aficionados. Nowadays, a large number of anime series still originate from the namesake manga series. However, there is a subset of manga-to-anime works apart from mainstream, born from technical and/or creative choices, departing from the conventionalized elements usually shared by both media. In this article I present an analysis of Aku no Hana (The Flowers of Evil), a manga series by Oshimi Shūzō —named after Baudelaire's seminal work— and its controversial anime adaptation, known for using rotoscoping, paying special attention to the mangaesque and animesque elements found within.
