CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

A. Background of the Study

Nowadays television becomes one of the most important media to human.

From the children until adult have their own favorite television programs. One of

them is animation. Animation is one of technique in making a film or movie.

Animation becomes really popular especially among the children. The animation

becomes a friend for the children in their free time after study. It makes them

happy when they watch it.

Basically, Animation was made for the children, as their entertainment at

home, but right now, there are many animation are made for the adult. Sometimes

animation is made not for entertain but it can become a tool for people to show

their own mind to the public.

There are many types or genre for animation, such as adventure, romance,

sci-fi, school life, love, sport, fighting, horror, etc., but for the children and adults

adventure become their favorite. The adventure of the character in the movie

really become their favorite, because the adventure gives them something to learn,

like friendship, work together, family, survival, etc. All of them is told by the

character through their action and dialogue

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animation).

There are some character in Animation, and every character has dialog

(13)

2

Japanese make their own animation is called Anime. Anime are Japanese

animated productions featuring hand-drawn or computer animation. The word is

the abbreviated pronunciation of "animation" in Japanese, where this term

references all animation. In other languages, the term is defined as animation from

Japan or as a Japanese-disseminated animation style often characterized by

colorful graphics, vibrant characters and fantastic themes. Anime is a diverse art

form with distinctive production methods and techniques that have been adapted

over time in response to emergent technologies

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anime#Definition_and_usage).

When the character communicate, they use utterances to express what they

have in their minds toward the other character. Utterances produced by a speaker

does not only function to explain the speaker’s mind toward the listener but also means to show the relationship between them. Those expressions easily find in

daily conversation and show character’s relation among one and others.

Utterance could be said as main point in speech acts. Utterance means

what is said by any one person before or after another person begins to speak

People perform action through that utterance. Utterances also occur in a movie in

which the conversation happens among the characters (Yule, 1996: 47).

When we want to know people’s relationship through their utterance, we

can see it from speech act that people use. The meaning of words or utterances

depend on the meaning of the words or utterances themselves and situational

(14)

3

something is to do something. On any occasion, the action performed by

producing an utterance will consist three related acts (Searle, 1976: 1-23).

Speech act is a kind of verbal communication. The words speech acts are

derived from two words are speech and act. Speech is the utterance that occurs

and act means action. That is the reason why people have to interpret the meaning

of communication or language through speech acts. Many times, in conversation

people not only saying, but also forcing the hearer to do something. When the

hearer is doing an act it means he or she is doing illocutionary acts. The hearer

tends to do action. In that conversation people are also possible to influence the

hearer the speaker successfully affects the hearer, it means perlocutionary acts can

be performed well. In perlocutionary act the hearer is allowed to make an

interpretation on conversation. If it happens in conversation, it means speech acts

are applied (Austin, 1962: 170-173).

Locutionary act is ‘what is said’ the form of uttered; the act of saying

something. If someone says ‘Press the Button!’ the locutionary acts is the realization of the speaker’s utterance. That’s the act, saying. Illocutionary act is

‘what is done in uttering the word’, the function of the word, the specific purpose

that the speakers have in mind. The utterance “I swear to give it back next time” is used to perform the illocutionary act of promising. Perlocutionary act is ‘what is done by uttering the word’; it is the effect on listener, the listener’s reaction. The utterance “there is something in your shoulder!” may cause the listener to panic

and to look on his shoulder. The perlocution of this utterance is to cause those

(15)

4

There are many different things that speakers can do with words and some

utterances that the speaker produces are not statements or questions about some

pieces of information, but action (Austin, 1962:178). Everybody would agree that

every utterance we give has meaning, it also has aim, then gets action-reaction.

Conversation, formal or informal, daily or not, has background for the addressee

and from addresser. Conversation has expression, whether it‘s complaining,

congratulating, promising, etc. it shows that words are not only something the

speakers use to say something but also to do something. Sometimes when the

speakers says something, the speaker does not just say it exactly, but there is some

implicit meaning behind it. Therefore, the words or the utterances that people

produce also can lead to misunderstanding. As it is know that communication is

called successful when hearers recognize the linguistics meaning of the utterances,

but when they infer the speaker’s “meaning” from it (Allan, 2001:15).

Fasril ( 2012, 168-198) analyzed illocutionary acts of Luffy’s utterances to

his addressees in comic One Piece. He focused on Luffy’s utterances to his addresses and to find out the occurrence frequency of the type of illocutionary

acts. After the analyzing the data, he found that representative is the most

dominant types of illocutionary acts because the comic market target are the

children, so the comic use language that easy to understand.

Divani (2013,16-32) analyzed illocutionary acts of the main character of

Transformers Movie “Dark of the Moon” and he found there were two points to

be related to the problem of this research; first the most dominant is Directive

(16)

5

questioning, ordering, suggesting, advising, begging, challenging, insisting, and

pleading, those are the reason Directive become the most dominant type. The both

researcher analyzes in different field, Fasril in a comic meanwhile Divani in a

Western Movie. And they find different conclusion.

Istiningdias (2014, 291-299) analyzed Illocutionary Acts in Declarative

Mood: A Functional Grammar Approach. She analyzes the data based on

Functional Grammar. The data taken from Disney Words published in Twitter and

classify into two major: Direct Illocutionary Acts and Indirect Illocutionary Acts.

From the finding, the writer concludes two kinds of Illocutionary Act can be

found in Declarative Mood which have different roles. Direct Illocutionary Act

can be seen by making a statement or giving information in 35 clauses. Indirect

Illocutionary Act can be seen by giving a directive (getting someone to do

something, giving advice, and giving warning) and also expressing emotion in 10

clauses.

Ilyas & Khushi (2012, 501-507) analyzed Facebook Status Updates: A

Speech Act Analysis. The current research will explore the use of language in a

context, which in this case is the social networking website Facebook. The

researchers aim at studying the communicative functions that emerge from

analysis of the status updates. Some of the status updates will be classified for

their individual communicative function and some of these would be considered

as one whole. To conclude, the different communicative aspects that emerged

through the categorization of the updates varied from expressing what one was

(17)

6

expressed their emotions but also shared details about their daily life activities as

to what they were doing or what was going on in their lives at that moment. This

shows how socialization patterns emerge through the sharing of feelings,

information and ideas.

From the research before, the writer is going to analyze the movie in

animation field. Because the writer feels so interests to try in different field from

those researchers. It knows that communication is successful when addresses

recognize the linguistics meaning of the utterance, but when they infer the

speaker’s meaning from it. The writer wants to know more about illocutionary act

especially in Animation. The usage of illocutionary act also used in the movie

because movie is actually a representation of the real conversation naturally

society. Making Anime also has the social dimension for several reason. Anime

makers are member of society, and, as such, are no less subject to social pressures

an norms than anyone else. Furthermore, all anime make occurs within social

context. Many researchers research the speech acts, especially illocutionary acts

field for their study that is the reason why the writer interests in illocutionary acts

field.

The writer chooses illocutionary act as the analyzer, because there are five

kind of illocutionary acts such as declaratives, representatives, expressives,

directives, and commisives. In his view, they are really confusing. So, by doing

this research the write wants to find out what made him thought about that in the

past and than he will tell the answer to the next student who will study this topic

(18)

7

the illocutionary acts which are conveyed by Naruto who are the main character in

Naruto Shippuden Movie – The Road to Ninja.

Why Naruto Shippuden Movie – The Road to Ninja as the media? Beside the writer loves watching and reading the Naruto Shippuden Series and the

Movies, there are a lot illocutionary acts that he can find in this movie. There are

almost utterances in this movie contain the illocutionary act and then, this movie

will educate the viewers. In other words, not only it has so many illocutionary

acts, but also this movie is educating someone when they watch it.
