 note = {In this article, we examine the development of the cyberpunk genre as a continuation of the dystopian genre, and also consider the novel by William Gibson, Neuromancer (1984), as a source that set a model for the development of the plot and the heroes and heroines in further works of this genre. In particular, we consider the futuristic image of Japan depicted in Neuromancer. Japan in the 1980s reached the level of a world economic power and thus made a huge impression on the rest of the world. We also look at how Japanese fashion influenced Gibson’s perception of Japan. In addition, we analyze a new type of heroine that appears in Neuromancer; the creation of such an image of the heroine allows us to call Gibson a feminist author, and his heroines influenced the further development of the cyberpunk genre (in particular, Japanese cyberpunk).},
