Abstract

This study aims to describe breaches of the Cooperative Principle and how these violations are realized through specific categories. The data source of this study is the Japanese drama Ryousangata Riko: Saigo no Puramo Joshi no Jinsei Kumitateki, consisting of ten episodes. The subjects of the study are two characters, Riko and Yajima. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method, with data collected through observation and note-taking techniques. The analysis is based on Grice’s Cooperative Principle theory (1975). The findings reveal a total of 63 instances of maxim breaches. Breaches of the Maxim of Quantity occur most frequently, with 28 data, followed by the Maxim of Manner with 26 data, the Maxim of Relation with 5 data, and the Maxim of Quality with 4 data. Regarding the categories of breaches, the most dominant category is Flouting a Maxim with 56 data, followed by Clash with 3 data, Violate a Maxim with 2 data, and Opt Out with 2 data. The results illustrate how indirectness and strategic maxim violations are employed in Japanese communication as represented in the drama.
