Disappointed is an understatement. I grew up loving this show. Makes me wonder how the cast would have treated me or anyone else I know.

My backlog is:

I guess that means Wrath of Cortex is non-canon.

True, but 90s anime, from what I notice, are way less obnoxious. I mean, sure there was plenty of bad stuff back then too, but the stuff that was mainstream leaned towards a more mature feel and felt less tropey.

Cop: Hey, a lot of people are really mad about us killing black people. It’s causing global riots. That’s some serious shit, dude. We caused that. You think maybe we should, ya know...stop?

and more anime tropes and cliches than you can cringe at.

Yep.

I don’t even know who Perry Como is and I found that funny.

What an Uncle Tom. Jesus...

I know, right? And they could have at least modernized the character a little for the remake, since it’s 2020, just to make him a little less stereotypical. But no, they double down on it. Like come on, Japan, the video game industry is completely global now, y’all can’t be this unaware (blame also goes to Square Enix…

That’s what I mean.

A functioning government would have never allowed him to run in the first place, let alone win, and a functioning society would have unanimously regarded his campaign as a joke.

Hell, he’s responsible for all the COVID-19 deaths in the US, and he’s gonna be responsible for even more, since he’s decided to re-open everything.

And on top of that, he has the gall to insult actual veterans and call them cowards, then flip flop and talk about supporting the troops whenever he wants to look good. And his base just eats it up like mindless idiots.

Man, God. Is trying. To kill us.

More black characters in video games, period, for starters.

And you got people more concerned about property damage than the loss of innocent lives all these years.

It all started when a bunch of Europeans sailed to an already inhabited country and told it’s population “This is MINE now! I’m taking this! MINE!” And then they said “Gee, I wonder what else we can ‘discover’ (rubs fingers)“.

This is why we can never have nice things.

I love how this game not only keeps the sillier, humorous aspects of the original but doubles down on them.
