Английская Википедия:Banchō (position)
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Italic title Шаблон:Nihongo historically refers a governmental position during the Шаблон:Transl period in Japan. In the modern era, banchō is the leader of a group of male Japanese juvenile delinquents. Sukeban is the related term for young girls of the subculture. The term banchō became less common through the 1970s and into the 1980s in Japan.
Governmental position
Under the Шаблон:Transl system between the 8th and 10th centuries, a Шаблон:Transl was a lower position in the Imperial Guard. In the Шаблон:Transl there are several references to people holding this position.
Juvenile delinquency
In Japan in the 20th century, the term Шаблон:Transl refers to a leader of juvenile delinquents in middle and high schools.[1] It is thought that this current meaning originates from the original meaning of the term—the personalities of guard commanders. An alternative is that the word derives from Шаблон:Nihongo, a term for a position in the former Japanese army. Female Шаблон:Transl are called Шаблон:Nihongo. The typical image of a Шаблон:Transl is an uncouth fighter who has a strong sense of gang honor. Шаблон:Transl who rule several schools and have control of other Шаблон:Transl are called Шаблон:Nihongo, and in elementary schools and under, the term for Шаблон:Transl is Шаблон:Nihongo.
In reality, though, Шаблон:Transl were becoming increasingly rare in the 1970s, and by the 1980s the term was relatively old-fashioned. Vestiges of the word still remained, though, such as in the nicknames for baseball players Kazuhiro Kiyohara and Daisuke Miura. By the end of the 20th century, the term almost did not exist at all, though groups of delinquents who committed crimes began to stand out. The term became a title of honor for people with leadership personalities, and who stood against tough elements, and in turn, the negative connotation of the word diminished. It also became a scornful term for people who had a great deal of bravado.
On the other hand, in the manga world, due to a backlash, a genre called "Шаблон:Transl manga" has been created, with there being various types of Шаблон:Transl.
Characteristics
In some schools, students would hold secret elections to pick Шаблон:Transl.[1] Occasionally there would be fights between Шаблон:Transl and their subordinates, the loser of which would become subordinate to the winner.[1]
