About the so-called 'pinky violence'

Hi Martin,
According to a presentation in June 2008 at Meijigakuin University on
"Pinky Violence" by Mana Yaeko (真魚八重子), the term did not
originate from Toei in the 70s but was a creation of 90s subculture
focused on 70s cinema, specifically works from the Toei lot. I'm
assuming that since this presentation made no specific references to
where this term originated that she was referring origins in Japanese
film subculture but this might have taken place simultaneously with
the American fan boy you mentioned.
Cheers,
Kenneth Shima
