Subcultural capital, Cultural mediation, FansubbersAbstract
The article discusses anime online fandom practices, with a particular focus on the fan-powered circuit and its collaboration system, which consists of the translation, subtitling and informal distribution of East Asian audiovisual products – usually anime – in the network universe digital. From an ethnographic inspired research with the agents involved in the translation and distribution activity of these products in Brazil, the text presents the active and plural policies that guide the collaborative activity of local fansubbers and, in turn, denounce a dispute for subcultural capital to these fan producers in their online communities. Fundamentally, the article contrasts with the idea of anime fan culture represented by brazilian fansubbers as a homogeneous community, with shared motivations and common conduct.
