Are the shows in Japan made for the Japanese or the Americans.RamonesFan2020204 wrote:>>You know... the age for sexual consent in Japan was 13 for a very long time. Only recently has it been upped to 16.
In America, the age that a boy become a man is supposed to be 18, but in Japan it's 15.
Well, is this JAPAN, or the USA?????
(Waits for answer)......
Yeah, that's what I thought.

Yeah, that's what we all knew.
While the Japanese animation studios are now more and more aware of American interest in Japanese Animation, the shows are still made by Japanese animators for a Japanese audience and it is typical American arrogance to believe that these people should follow American viewpoints and American cultural taboos and write to appease American viewers.

There are two kinds of people in this world:
Those who divide people into two kinds of groups
and those who don't.

hey, i doubt Japan would care less what americans think, they make anime for themselves, if other countries take an interest, well, its their problems, and they''ll just have to grovel for the right to translate the anime manga and distribute it (damn you VIz, how could you be so short sighted??? Still haging on the eva manga here)
back on track here, id just like to state that id only sleep with an anime chick if, A) she became real (screwing some paint just wouldnt work) and B) Only after a long relationship, im not into these one night flings (i am after all a gentleman)and C)
only if she lets me take it out for a spin...

Re: Hmph!
thank you ... those thoughts have been swiming aorund in my mind for the last day or two, but i lack the eloquence to put them in type.

Re: Hmph!
Excellent reply Milo. I agree with the arrogance thing since I have run into a number of anime fans that think anime (as well as EVERYTHING on earth) is for Americans. I mentioned this in another thread with dubs and English being the 'superior' language.UncleMilo wrote: Are the shows in Japan made for the Japanese or the Americans.

In any case...good reply. We fortunately enjoy what they make for the japanese, but we should never feel obligated since it is not made for us.

I wish Animerica magazine would realize this fact!!! They complain about Racism and Boobs in anime all the time! We should not try to force our stupid politically correct crap on japan.

the odd thing i've noticed that theres this girl on my bus to school (yea i'm 18 and i don't drive ... shame on me) who looks almost exactaly like Maimi ... just she has long hair ... but god is it ever weird ... when she tucks it back and it looks short ... i jump every time i see her ...[/quote]
Age does not mean anything in anime, come on, a 14 year old kid can save the world, but a thirty year old man cannot shoot for shit with a gun[/quote]
