Предметом исследования выступает реализация «эффекта Расёмона» в аниме-сериале «Первородный грех Такопи» (2025), рассмотренная как целостная этико-эпистемологическая модель. Целью работы стало выявление механизмов конструирования нарративной полифонии и её роли в формировании у зрителя состояния этической амбивалентности. Методологическую базу составили нарратологический анализ фокализации в версии Ж. Женетта, теория ненадёжного повествования, а также элементы дискурс-анализа медиа. Анализ показал, что сериал оперирует тремя ключевыми инструментами: жёсткой внутренней фокализацией, создающей когнитивную асимметрию между версиями событий, темпоральной нелинейностью, превращающей память в перформативный акт и отказом от финального восстановления объективной истины в пользу определенной этической полифонии. В результате классическая «расёмоновская» ситуация поиска виновного переводится в экзистенциальную плоскость, где вина распределяется между всеми персонажами как условие их коммуникации, а фигура героя и антагониста деконструируется. Новизна работы заключается в том, что «эффект Расёмона» проанализирован на материале аниме-сериала как инструмент этической саморефлексии, стимулирующий активное соучастие зрителя в процессе смыслопорождения.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The relevance of this study stems from the transformation of classical narrative models in contemporary digital audiovisual culture, where the principles of unambiguity and objective truth increasingly give way to a plurality of interpretations. The subject of this study is the implementation of the «Rashomon effect» in the anime series «The Original Sin of Takopi» (2025), examined as a holistic ethical and epistemological model. The aim of the study was to identify the mechanisms for constructing narrative polyphony and its role in shaping the viewer’s state of ethical ambivalence. The methodological framework was formed by narratological analysis of focalization as described by Jean Genette, the theory of unreliable narration, and elements of media discourse analysis. The analysis revealed that the series operates with three key tools: rigid internal focalization, which creates a cognitive asymmetry between versions of events; temporal nonlinearity, which transforms memory into a performative act; and the rejection of a final restoration of objective truth in favor of a specific ethical polyphony. As a result, the classic «Rashomon» situation of searching for the guilty party is transformed into an existential dimension, where guilt is distributed among all characters as a condition of their communication, and the figures of hero and antagonist are deconstructed.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>эффект Расёмона</kwd><kwd>аниме</kwd><kwd>нарративная полифония</kwd><kwd>ненадёжное повествование</kwd><kwd>этическая амбивалентность</kwd><kwd>Первородный грех Такопи</kwd><kwd>фокализация</kwd><kwd>когнитивная асимметрия</kwd><kwd>цифровая анимация</kwd><kwd>японская медиакультура</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Rashomon effect</kwd><kwd>anime</kwd><kwd>narrative polyphony</kwd><kwd>unreliable narration</kwd><kwd>ethical ambivalence</kwd><kwd>Takopi’s Original Sin</kwd><kwd>focalization</kwd><kwd>cognitive asymmetry</kwd><kwd>digital animation</kwd><kwd>Japanese media culture</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Акутагава Р.
