CAPTAIN YAJIMA is a computer-animated online short by Ian "Worthikids" Worthington (who also made BIGTOP BURGER) in association with Japanese voice-acting group RASH A1M, released on April 30, 2021. It is an Affectionate Parody of 1960s Japanese shows and Stop Motion films—and notably, is entirely in Japanese with English subtitles.The short is structured like an episode of a TV series, with the episode being titled "Astronaut". It follows space explorer Captain Yajima and her assistant Professor Genius finding a stranded astronaut. The astronaut turns out to be Yajima's Arch-Nemesis, the Wicked Zoga, in disguise, who had been kicked off course by a rude alien on a motorcycle. The three set off to find the rude alien and get revenge. | |

Diegetic Soundtrack Usage: The short's end credits theme, "Wizard - Hexilate!", is the same "space metal" song that plays in the bar that Captain Yajima and her friends visit. | |

Voluntary Shapeshifting: The astronaut who tells the story of a rude alien kicking him onto a remote planet turns out to be Zoga, having magically shapeshifted into one. She assures Yajima and Genius that she really was kicked by a rude alien, however. | |

Ambiguously Human: Zoga has a humanlike structure, unlike the expressly "alien" characters such as Genius, but her multicolored head, yellow pupils, and a red seemingly-bionic eye make her appear less human than Yajima herself. | |

| CAPTAIN YAJIMA (Web Animation) / int_3c0a4666 | comment |
Noodle Incident: We never learn why Zoga was disguised as an astronaut when the rude alien kicked her. She claims she was "doing a different thing" when it happened after Captain Yajima thinks the whole thing was a ruse Zoga pulled. The opening credits show scenes presumably taken from other adventures, most randomly Yajima and Genius escaping from a giant black hand in a corridor, but we never get any context for them. | |

Stylistic Suck: While the short is animated in Blender, it uses techniques to look like stop-motion. When the characters are flying towards the vortex, strings are added to the scene holding them up, and there are also strings holding the spaceship when it flies. | |

Retraux: The short is presented as if it were a lost '60s TV series: it sports a blurry picture with film grain and dirt, a 4:3 aspect ratio, and a mono soundtrack with poor audio quality. The subtitles are baked-in and presented in yellow, like an early anime Fan Sub. | |

The Only One Allowed to Defeat You: This is Zoga's attitude towards Captain Yajima, considering herself her only real enemy. When Yajima declares the motorcycle alien her "arch-rival" to replace Zoga, she becomes so enraged that she breaks out of her astronaut disguise and reveals herself. | |

Shout-Out | |
| CAPTAIN YAJIMA (Web Animation) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: According to Word of God invoked on a series of tweets: Captain Yajima's design is partly based on Barbarella and the costumes worn by the '70s-'80s Japanese pop duo PINK LADY, for their single "UFO". Professor Genius' design is inspired by a Jabba the Hutt figurine, which Worthikids thought was adorable. Also, during the opening titles sequence enemy ships resembling TIE fighters chase after Yajima's saucer. Yajima and Zoga are Named After Somebody Famous — Japanese actors Masaaki Yajima and Machiko Soga — and they are somewhat modeled after the actors' famous roles as Captain Kirk and Bandora/Rita Repulsa, respectively. | |

Expository Pronoun | |
| CAPTAIN YAJIMA (Web Animation) / int_d3a55fd8 | comment |
Expository Pronoun: Through Japanese Pronouns, some insight can be gained about the characters' personalities and dynamics: Yajima's personal pronoun is the informal and feminine atashi and her second-person pronoun is the contracted and informal anta, reflecting her self-assured and tomboyish nature. Genius's personal pronoun is the standard and gender-neutral watashi and his second-person pronoun is the informal and polite kimi, indicating how he is kinder and gentler than Yajima. In the subtitles, Zoga's personal pronoun is the masculine and aggrandizing ore — showing her bloated ego — though she says watashi in spoken dialogue. Yajima and Zoga mutually refer to each other as omae, which is very informal and rude if not used in close company, reflecting their nature as arch-nemeses. However, omae is commonly used among friends as well, which matches with how the two are Friendly Enemies who eventually work together. | |
