As an American, I do appreciate all the helpful graffiti reminding me of which country I’m currently in.

I love the art direction of these games!! I’m not a real religious person but I really dig all the suttle symbolism!

This happens occasionally during sales online although usually for pc games. Ironic how the “nintendo get with the times” comments don’t understand that. A popular game with many people dumping out their coins and its easy to see how this happened. They just have to generate more codes.

This is off topic, but it reminded me of Kanji’s misplaced crush on Naoto. Was anyone else not a fan of the ability to have Naoto dress up like a girl for the last date? I felt like it kind of betrayed Naoto’s character for a cheap fanservice moment. #TeamtomboyNaoto.

Some people actually write like that, you know.
Some are skilled at writing engaging, interesting ways to express what they’re feeling.

Seriously. I kind of hate how cynical people get about diction. Colorful communication is looked down upon like a Disney villain looks down upon the “good guys”. It’s like I’m watching…

The Mushi-shi movie you always wanted, Mushi-shi: Perfect Love.

Not trying to be insensitive, but blackface in japan might not be the same thing as black face in america. The united states has a pretty rich history with ‘white’ culture appropriating black culture, along with a massive racial inequality through segregation. Japanese culture hasn’t seen this, in fact for much of the…

I’m kind of over the term “blackface” when there isn’t malicious intent. Darkening your skin (or hair, or eyes) to impersonate a celebrity really isn’t the same as this, which is making a disrespectful caricature of an entire race:

"It's hard for us to prevent other countries from making characters like this because Philippines is very popular around the world."

Japan has no concept of April Fool's Day and April 1st is the beginning of the Japanese Fiscal Year.

To be honest with you, I don't have a problem with this. While it isn't my kind of thing, a lot of research has shown that both men and women have these kind of 'rape fantasies', and this porn is obviously causing no one harm to produce.

FF15 slide is better in a different way...

They did a nearly two hour livestream showing off the demo, during which they briefly outlined the game's control scheme. Kotaku is the one who decided to make an article out of that.

This is a difficult one, because we're crossing numerous cultures. From Miyazaki's perspective, we're getting his and a strong Japanese impression, from Hebdo we got his and a strong French impression, and from the attackers we got their and a strong, radical Islamic impression.

I partially agree, what is the point to anger people about stuff like this? I mean, don't get me wrong I love this kind of humor, but at what point do you stop doing it for the laughs and start doing it to bring attention/publicity? For the other side it is 2015 and we live in globalized society...oh well. These kind…

Devil's advocate:

Whether or not it looks stupid is another question entirely (yes it looks fucking ridiculous.), but whether its racist?

I'd very random with it's difficulty when it comes to random encounters. Sometimes it's a single enemy. Other times it's six. And as for the mini-bosses, you'll probably die each time you encounter one for the first time.

Go to Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines, and often, you'll also find vending machines.

Ramuh was a ronso all along!
