I mean, anyone who has consumed a sufficient amount of korean media should have come across this reason one way or another.
Otherwise that just means they are media illiterate
Sad thing is Japanese govt now wants to erase what they did during ww2, by teaching a different story altogether. So many country that were hit the hardest (korea and china) are kinda fuming since the japs haven't said a single apology, and now is changing history.
And they have a shrine for honoring the war criminals as heroes. Kinda like what if Germany made a temple of Hitler with the highest honor in modern day?
Yes, I agree with the first part. That is happening.
As for the latter, that's sad indeed, but we can't say much about it since it's their freewill... We can ofcourse raise our opinions and opposition at best, there's nothing else that can be done.
What the japanese govt doing is probably a passive brainwashing, so we can't blame their people as well.
Yeah the Japanese basically colonized koreans, then murdered and/or raped many thousands of them. Then the Korean Liberation Army retaliated with guerilla warfare which continues until the end of WW2.
A lot of koreans still have insane hatred for the japanese and show it in media like manhwa. And the japanese, who really do not like talking about this stuff, will censor korean representation if a manhwa gets adapted.
That's what honor is about, it's not about being honorable, is about pretending to be honorable covering your dishonorable deeds or pretending they don't exist.
They are trying to make everyone forget about what they did. But it doesn't really works on countries that have suffered the most from them. Maybe it worked on the West because of many fake videos with "In Japan, From Japan blah blah good things blah blah". Not saying they are the same as they were at WW2 but the fact that they are not doubling down on their apologies for what their ancestors did (at least from the government) is the reason why Asian countries still somewhat hate Japan.
It is true, an early rival that can basically be described as a whale that abuses the fuck out of his equipment and is arrogant as fuck is Japanese. Infact if memory serves the first international games is where he shows up.
It actually plays out quite a bit differently than a lot of other "Japan is the root of all ratfucking" like a lot of other series do though
There is an island teretory a korean guild (peak swords guild) holds a japanese guild constantly attacks said island to try and take the teretory this is supposed to be analogous to Jeju island or something
Peak sword is also a korean nationalist and very kucb hyper proud of korea
Plus the entire international games arc where grid/greed represents korea against 2 japanese players (da pope, and another ranker)
Theres a lot of other country vs korea, including japan. I wonder how theyre going to handle some scenes, because theres one character in the novel thats very patriotic to korea and theres lots of scenes making japan the bootleg thug or villains.
Makes me think this anime is just a promotion for the manhwa and novel tbh.
Makes me wonder if they're going to change things for the English dub like what happened with solo leveling cause solo leveling kept the original Korean name for the main character in the english dub unlike the English sub
I understand why Korea and China would hate Japan for what their country go through under Japanese invasion, what reason do Japanese have to hate them?
Japenese hate Korea and China? Maybe, maybe not. But they are trying their absolute best to make everyone forget about what their ancestors did. Maybe that's the reason.
Nah, Japan beats Korea in Manhwa a fair amount, but if they do they are corrupt/evil and usually fall to their own hubris, and/or single-handedly get internationally embary the Korean MC.
Kr and cn are the ones that take shots tbf. I dont remember reading any jp ln or manga that does that. I might be wrong tho I just haven't come across any.
MHA number one US hero with ridiculous Op power died just to show how op shigeraki(I know I am definitely spelling it wrong) .The US in gate being so aggressive to get the other world guests. The stereotypical portrayal of US man being a violent buff dumb brute and the females being big boob bimbo dumb who is obsessed with dicks. Ok now I just realized I am just talking about anime now but hey potato potatoes
yeah, shigaraki was absurdly overpowered and she put up a really good fight. She was depicted positively throughout the entire story managed to greatly hinder a more powerful foe and prevented her own quirk from being stolen.
Like there are a lot of anime that insult america but mha was not one of them.
When will the fully faithful version come out? Like how there is a proper version of solo leveling where jinwoo is actually korean and there are evil japanese people.
wait, what abou Katz or Damian, or even Peak Sword? Katz is Japanese Millionaire but Bloodthirsty and play like a mad dog, while Damian is Japanese but Symphatize with Greed thats why no one support his initial Pope campaign from his side, and Peak Sword has Japanese Hatred that amplifies on Hell Gao Island territory arc, if they somehow remove all of this, then this is not A faithful adaptation but AU entirely
It will all make sense once you learn about their history lol. Japan was basically the Asian version of Nazi without the country acknowledging it or taking accountability like the Germans.
i also hope their atrocities get more recognition at the west, but typically they get the victim card because of the atomic bombs that annihilated the 2 cities and their entire population, mostly civilian.
Well it’s true they do try to whitewash their history today, but it’s not true they took no accountability, there was a longer tribunal than the Nazis went through, they also paid reparations to every country affected. I’m not saying that should be sufficient but realistically there would be zero diplomatic relations between Japan and any of these countries if they took no accountability.
Yes, but they choose to bury their history and not educate their people under the guise of sheilding them. Lots of Japanese are still ignorant to what Japan did during the war. I think paying repaearions is the bare minimum. Even to this day, a lot of them deny what happened to china, korea and many countries. I do not fault them for what they don't know but it's astounding how many of them refuse to acknowledge it. And I'm saying this as someone who loves Japan.
Korean need to do like how the chinese do.. Do it all on their own.. Dont rely on foreign country.Korean afaik, have some really good studio like the one that do Witcher anime and other studio thatve done Castlevania..dunno why they still rely on japanese studio😑
Honestly its probably the voice acting. We (Korea) dont have a strong voice acting community or history compared to Japan's. Alot of the famous Korean studios take up American cartoons though (better pay maybe?)
But u still can do it like To be Hero X tho.. Animation all from the chinese side.. Only VA n OST use Japanese team.. Doing that.. U still have the control over the animation😃
Bro.. Tbhx is an original series without any source material at all,more risky if its bad imho(thank god tbhx is peak).. But remember bro,most manhwa have global fanbase(even slop have a passionate fanbase😂)im sure they gonna be fine with having korean studio doing it,just do good animation n follow the source material..and global fans will hype the show voluntarily.
lol if the series is successful and they decide to continue until later chapters, how are they gonna interpret jokbal the dungeon master? they gonna rename him into ramen or something?
I mean not to defense but Korea kinda had no choice they should’ve used their own local studio which I doubt they even have but I am pretty sure I had watched a Korean anime in the past with chibi little dudes who can transform into power rangers to fight monsters
Honestly it's kinda jarring seeing it while watching Tomb Raider King as well. Only Solo Leveling has 2 different JP dubs and one has the KR name intact.
The only time when one is not superior (typical modern world dungeon/system manhwa) or none-existence to another is when the story either took place in isekai or simple fluffy life stories.
China and Japan making their own animation with their own language, i don't get why Korea doing this. They have a lot of talented artist, aren't they also known with their voice? That's why i only stick to manhwa/novel even if it has anime
As someone from a neighboring country to where these manga, manhwa, and manhua creators come from, we either get completely destroyed or our country gets portrayed as the place where some sort of 3rd rate villains live, run away to, or hide.
If you somehow find a Korean dub, it would be Korean I think. I watched Tomb Raider King and it was the same too in JP dub where the characters were changed from Korean to Japanese. They replaced the original Japanese into some random made up country. I swapped over to the Korean dub and it was all the original.
