I had the exact same thoughts! The idea that all black people share the same culture is clearly absurd - possibly the author is so American-centric that he overlooks the fact that American blacks comprise about 1% of all blacks in the world.

‘Nuances in the voice’? Really? I know a black person whose native language…

Why should your real world shared cultural experiences, (whatever that even means), be represented by a fictional character in a science-fiction/fantasy setting who would have no actual way of experiencing said culture? Black characters are only valid if they directly reference the trials and tribulations of American…

Nerf Now has switched to daily updates and is doing a storyline, the problem is that kotaku always just uploads the most recent comic so they skip a bunch of stuff and sometimes just upload a transition page. They had similar issues with Manly Guys Doing Manly Things when that was still being updated.

Definitely.

Having said that, folks...

Wolf’s Rain, Cowboy Bebop, Tokyo Godfathers, Macross Plus, Samurai Champloo, Space Dandy, Carole and Tuesday: This is a murderer’s row of anime classics over the past 3 decades, and this woman’s responsible for writing a good chunk, if not most of them. I grew up with them and still am in awe of them all.

LOL, the pandering in that trailer was a real sight to see. And I'm someone who usually chooses female characters in games. 

Dare we suspect American puritanism rather than a mistranslation?

Dude, I know a whole army of people on Twitter who are champing at the bit to put their catboys in maid outfits.

I have actually seen Reddit posts asking for this specifically.

It’s sad that Nintendo gives enough of a shit about this property to (probably) get litigious with folks like this who are simply wearing their heart on their sleeve, but don’t give enough of a shit to actually sell us westerners Mother 3 in any way, shape or form.

You might be overestimating the amount of income a webcomic pulls in that they can just hire staff

This comment didn’t age well. You DO realize the “internet mob” 99% of the time relies on doxxing and death threats, right? Think about that next time you want to post something like this, ESPECIALLY when the entire thing ended up being fake anyway.

“...do the bare minimum when it comes to adding anything new, let alone surprising. And yet for all of their mediocrity I can’t stop playing them.”

It’s not pokemon if there isn’t *some* cloning trick.

commercials were just built differently in the 90s

That’s definitely an on-point Watanuki and Yuuko. Himawari and Doumeki will probably be announced next? I’d love to see Doumeki especially. I wouldn’t mind if they could shoehorn in both Zashiki-warashi and Ame-warashi, too. And Mokona will probably be CG?

In 2020 they developed and released 5 games...CoD Warzone, MW2 Remastered, THPS 1+2, Crash 4, and CoD BLOPS Cold War...and they made EIGHT BILLION DOLLARS. Cold War, which came out in November, and Modern Warfare (the 2019 version) were the top 2 best selling games of 2020. THPS 1+2 was the 20th best selling game of…

Yeah, uh, this is a genuinely bad headline for a variety of reasons. Whoever chose it should rethink this strategy.
