@Cjpearson Why are they bringing children to these events?

[ultraviolet @ultraviolet343]

@ash_starmy You are the one who said Japan makes their characters look Japanese when that isn’t true. How can the characters even look Japanese when largely influenced by Disney’s White characters? And that cosplayer looks nothing like Naruto.

@kodachi_oekaki I didn’t know Xi Jinping was so ripped

@a1bbbaaaabb @azukiglg Sorry about that. The beginning of this conversation was about the difference between those who worship the spirits as beings who actually exist, and those who don’t have a literal belief in the spirits - where they attend shrines and other various rituals as cultural norms.

[ultraviolet @ultraviolet343]

@nakonakonanoka @azukiglg I think there is a misunderstanding. I was referring to Japanese people who view participation in practices as more cultural/traditional than spiritual. I was not trying to reduce Shinto to suit my argument. The boundaries between the religions are different.

[ultraviolet @ultraviolet343]

@Tomoejp1236 Japanese anime and manga do that often for White characters such as the energetic foreigner usually with blonde hair and blue eyes who are from America a lot of times. I like those characters.

[ultraviolet @ultraviolet343]

@a1bbbaaaabb @azukiglg Also, I’ve been told that the translation feature has been translating it in a way that reads as disrespectful, when I am trying to deliberately not do that in my language so I can understand the differences in a respectful way - So apologies for that.

[ultraviolet @ultraviolet343]

@a1bbbaaaabb @azukiglg And what if they followed every social norm to protect that harmony they have? Would believing in a higher power really change an entire perspective of a person? Even after knowing them for some time before telling them?

[ultraviolet @ultraviolet343]

@nakonakonanoka @azukiglg In my language, I am trying to have a tone showing I’m trying to understand the differences in a non-offensive way since religion as a topic is very sensitive.

[ultraviolet @ultraviolet343]

@nakonakonanoka @azukiglg Yes, because in Shinto there isn’t doctrine saying you can’t pray to God at the shrine. For Christianity, the people who see Shinto as more cultural than a spiritual reality can become Christian.

[ultraviolet @ultraviolet343]

@azukiglg No, I have not looked down on you even once. It is not my place to judge. We have different perspectives, and the reason I’m talking to you is to explain mine, and see yours.

[ultraviolet @ultraviolet343]

@a1bbbaaaabb @azukiglg In the case for me, I understand that Azuki’s chance of becoming Christian is low. I am always trying to see the other side, but I truly believe that Japanese people, if they wish, can become a Christian without the fear of losing both their way of living and identity.

[ultraviolet @ultraviolet343]

@8mc1WDllVR22757 The same principle is being applied. If the Mii characters that don’t use any official assets shouldn’t be allowed, the same can be applied to anime/manga from its inception.

[ultraviolet @ultraviolet343]

@azukiglg @tyurukichi_AA You (and others) are the ones who keep posting these misrepresentations of Christianity. I simply replied, and you didn’t stop replying.

[ultraviolet @ultraviolet343]

@tyurukichi_AA @azukiglg No one is forcing you to believe anything. “Core beliefs” isn’t a phrase used in the Bible, and it can sound flexible, but it refers to shared doctrines that developed through interpretation and tradition. Despite differences, Christians still share certain core beliefs.

Nintendo cannot copyright an art style. If this was made with 100% original assets, nothing will happen. If this was illegal, then so was the creation of anime and manga with everyone ripping off Disney.

[ultraviolet @ultraviolet343]

@sogabber @asagi_00a3af It is flimsy at best. These are all original assets, and you can’t copyright an art style. If that were the case, Disney could have sued Osamu Tezuka and Studio Ghibli, and anime and manga would not exist.
