Title: US Politician (FILTHY DEMOCRAT) says "anime is why two nukes wasn't enough!"
Post by: Ichirou on March 27, 2010, 08:26:23 PM
Bebpo in tears.

Prole endorses.

Himuro suicidal.

An American politician is in exceedingly hot water after remarking that “Anime is a prime example of why two nukes wasn’t enough.”

New Hampshire State Representative Nick Levasseur, a Democrat, posted a tasteless statement on his Facebook profile decrying the survival of Japanese race:

"anime is a prime example of why two nukes just wasn't enough..."

Naturally, his comments will not endear him to anime fans, but more pressingly for him he was immediately savaged by Republicans for making “hateful” remarks, and Japanese and Japanese Americans will also doubtless be joining the queue to lambaste him for insensitive if not racist remarks.
He has since apologised for the remarks.

He is apparently no stranger to glib remarks about killing people he doesn’t like – in 2008 he was accused of listing one of his hobbies on his now defunct MySpace profile as:

“The hunting of neo-conservative Reaganites (a shooting sport brought to you by the republican party in more ways than one!)”

When confronted about the remark he threatened to report the complainant to authorities for harassment.
Fortunately, those worried about such a reprobate finding his way into the halls of power need not fret – his voting record shows he hardly ever bothers to vote in the very state legislature he was elected to.

Anime is pretty bad but his comments were out of line.

They're off color but they're obviously not racist and it's such random honest comment that it's funny as hell.  I like the guy more now for saying so bluntly what he thinks.

All writers like Takashi Murakami have also stressed events after WWII, but Murakami sees Japan's staggering defeat and the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki as having created long-lasting scars on the Japanese artistic psyche, which, in this view, lost its previously virile confidence in itself and sought solace in harmless and cute (kawaii) images.

we only have ourselves to blame for this animoedisaster

Sounds like bullshit to me.  Why did it take so many decades for moe to become the dominant factor in anime, if that's the case?

Errr, people need to stop acting like moe, loli, harem, big anime tits are something that just APPEARED SUDDENLY in the 00s and destroyed anime.
That stuff has been in anime for DECADES.  It's just in more shows these days because it's a lot cheaper to make than GIANT ROBOT EXTRAVAGANZA and it sells just as well if not better.

If you want to blame anything, blame the recession Japan has been in for decades.  If the anime industry was actually financially stable you'd see far more "high brow" productions instead of cheap money-rakes.
