The purpose of the present article is to study how the rhetoric of the image is able to motivate the change of gender stereotypes present in japanese mangas. It was hypothesized that this is possible by using and manipulating the graphic elements present in visual narratives, which are able to foment further reflection and questioning about gender roles. The methodology used has a qualitative approach with a descriptive and longitudinal scope because this article aimed to analyze and compare two different mangas to reach a conclusion. The results were divided in three groups: stereotypes, rhetoric and message. Among the main of them, it was recognized the presence of tomboy protagonists that contrasted with secondary feminine characters who represented the gender stereotypes in an exaggerated way. The male character in both mangas presented a flexible personality and an open mind. The analysis of both mangas helped to conclude that the rhetoric responded to the narrative and the message developed by the author. It was also observed that the clothes and the physical traits were able to define a gender, nevertheless, it was the use of ambiguity that disregarded this division. The recognized evolution regarding the stereotypical gender representation is presented through this resource, which also makes the visual narrative and its respective message more complex. At the same time, the use of ambiguity promotes the questioning of stereotypical gender roles.
