Formation Mechanism and Educational Path of Cultural Representation of Chinese Wuxia Animation Characters

Wuxia culture has deep historical roots in traditional Chinese culture and is an important manifestation of the national spirit and social values. This study explores the cultural representation mechanism of Wuxia animation characters and analyzes their educational functions and communication paths. Current research on Wuxia animation is fragmented and lacks a systematic theoretical model, especially in terms of educational value and cultural heritage. To fill this gap, this study adopts a grounded theory approach and combines online comment and in-depth interview data to construct a model of the formation mechanism of the cultural representation of Wuxia animation characters. The research results show that the cultural kernel, symbolic translation, and audience feedback jointly affect the formation of cultural representation, and that its dissemination and educational functions are enhanced through market regulation and technical support. This study not only provides new perspectives for animation research, semiotics, and cross-cultural communication research, but also provides theoretical support and practical reference for animation creation, cultural education, and cultural industry development.
