With the rise of platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram, the "video" medium has become the primary vehicle for this exchange.

This paper investigates the current state of Japanese-Thai media relations through the lens of specific digital avatars and influencers, specifically looking at the comparative personas of and the figure known as Mikaela . We posit that their respective approaches to content creation highlight the divergence and convergence of Japanese precision and Thai approachability. 2. Theoretical Framework: The "Takeuchi" Standard In the context of Japanese digital media, the surname Takeuchi is utilized here as a representative archetype for the traditional Japanese creative industry—structured, high-production value, and deeply rooted in the "Idol" ecosystem.
The proliferation of digital platforms has catalyzed a unique cross-cultural exchange between Japanese and Thai media industries. This paper, updated to reflect the post-pandemic digital landscape, examines the synergies between Japanese video production aesthetics and the burgeoning Thai content creation market. By analyzing specific case studies involving emerging digital personalities—specifically the collaborative works involving Riri and Mikaela—this study explores how "J-Culture" is localized and re-interpreted within the Thai context. We argue that the "J-Thai" video nexus represents a new form of soft power, characterized by hybridized narratives that blur the lines between traditional Japanese "Idol" culture and the informal, high-engagement style of Thai social media influencers.
