Thanks, Obama and thank you Japan.

Whoa, Obama is so hip and cool, I will totally vote for him next time!

Man-gah!

Poor Japan, are those really the only things of note they have given the world?

>>13398146
The only contribution they have made to the world was the killing of millions of Chinks.

>>13398146
yes. if it was 20 years ago he'd mention their electronics, but now they're only good anime, manga, emoji.

Anime is a cultural export, yes. K-on was a really big deal.

What the fuck, Anglophones. Are you fuckers just mentally unable to read a word as it's written?

I would have lost my shit if he had said "anime is a prime example of why 2 nukes just wasn't enough"

>>13398175
Samsung is worthless now that Chinaphones are taking over the market with quality products, sorry.

Cute image, dude.

"Cool Japan" was a legitimate thing in the 2000s, so I guess it's not as bizarre as it seems. But thanking Shinzo Abe for manga seems a little ironic.

Doesn't Shinzo Abe dislike Animes and Mango?

I feel sorry for Japan.

The world knows them as degenerate perverts.

Their most widely known cultural hallmark is anime.

>>13399409
Their government supports it. They even opened the Creative Industries Promotion Office in 2010, so don't weep for them. This is in their best interests as a cultural superpower.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cool_Japan

>>13399409
What else do they have that's exportable?

>>13399448
They definitely should consider exporting those toilet seats with heating and bidet.

>>13399431
Who cares about the government? People don't support it, that's for sure.

>>13399448
Cars?

>>13399448
The problem is that they've turned inward so heavily. Most of what they're developing is designed solely with themselves in mind.

Even their games stopped exporting. They don't even bother translating them. I still remember when all games were Japanese.

>>13398558

>Their most widely known cultural hallmark is anime.
It's not like America has a much better reputation. Our only notable exports are war, naturally aspirated V8s, and foods with bacon either in or around it, sometimes both.

>>13399668
it's more like your post just fucking sucked

like if he hit abe in the face with a pie that would also be funny but it's such a fucking pointless statement

>>13398954

>>13399692
Oh yeah poor America, they only performed the majority of significant scientific and engineering breakthroughs for the past 150 years.

>>13399833
No, they only took credit for what 1st generation immigrants did. Unless you're referring to Edison, who was a known patent thief and con artist.

>>13399658
It's the fact they stay introverted is why their stuff can still be interesting.

80s/90s western culture was cool, nowadays it's trash.

>>13400032
do you like peanut butter?

>>13400054
It's trash.

Actual white butter is preferable.

>>13399704
Truly the most inspirational anime, inspiring the young Barack to leave Uganda and become the most powerful man in the world.

God I'm glad Obongo is nearly gone.

Because most of you guys are actually proud of that.

What did you expect?

Deep plot and artistic visuals?

>>13400558
Lewd is physically deep and pantyshots are artistic.

Please don't make fun of artist.

It's a Niggey this time.

And Abe should thank Barak Hussein Obama for the rioting in Baltimore and making absolutely sure that anime and manga fans will have their con canceled this year.

Thanks!

Why would he say that? That's pretty cringey.

Manga and doujinshi works are the only thing worth investing time in.

>>13400708
I like manga, doujinshi and visual novel...

>>13400719
Forget to say, but I still want anime because it's not exactly hurting to have anime.

>>13400724
i want anime to get back the aesthetics it had in the 90s. i really miss the various styles and proportions. now everything is just the same generic styles.

>>13400774
It really isn't.

>>13400774
Everything in the 90s was long legs, tiny waists and huge balloon or torpedo shaped tits. And rectangle shaped irises.

>>13400774
you are so out of your mind.

some advice for you: hating things for no particularly good reason only hinders you. grow up, peter pan, stop living in the past and welcome to the present.

>>13400799
sorry but i'm not going to be a pleb. i have too high of a standard, unlike you.

>>13400840
It's not about standards, it's about you being plain wrong.

I pretty much don't give a shit what the animation actually looks like, I'm 90% in it for the voices.

I guess that's pretty disrespectful to the animators and character designers.

Can you really blame him? His number one priority as PM has been reviving the Japanese economy, after all.

I wonder how many people out there have decided to get offended on the behalf of the Japanese people.

Nothing wrong with that.

Actually the complete opposite.

"Thanks for the anime." - US President

this shit makes me cringe really hard. I don't like hearing the president of the united states mention anime. like it honestly makes my ass involuntarily squeeze up having to hear about it

>>13403053
As someone has accurately put it before
[ ] Black person
[ ] Not a weeaboo

>>13403239
doesn't matter. I just don't like the thought of weeaboo shit being mentioned in real life. I just hate it so much. I hate even more the thought of niggers being weebs. it's very easy to make me cringe. obama is not a weeb. I guarantee it and no one is convincing me otherwise

Obama was really into Naruto but he thinks the quality went down after the Zabusa arc. Now he watches One Piece.

Someone should tell obama his waifu's a shit

>>13403277
Imagine some japanese guy getting this upset over Abe thanking America for The Avengers and PCs

>>13403370
he still hasn't thanked us for the two gifts we gave japan back in 1945

it's too bad modern naming sense came along too late to name them 'freedom' and 'democracy'

>wants to remilitarize Japan
No, the stance on article 9 he's proposing will just allow Japan to react in self-defense even when the threat isn't directly reaching Japan's shores. For example, with the current interpretation of article 9, the JSDF won't be able to rescue a Japanese cruise ship full of Japanese citizens if it were attacked by terrorists outside of Japenese's waters. Likewise, with the current interpretation of article 9, if a North Korean rocket was shot in the direction of USA, the Japanese airforce wouldn't be allowed to intercept and destroy it even though it encroached into Japanese skies.

>kick out American bases
No, Abe's stance is actually the opposite of that. Japan and USA are on an agreement for a stronger military alliance. With the current agreement, USA and Japan both pledge to share military secrets and technology between each other and act as anti-Chinese deterrent to stop their military expansion in the Philippine sea. Not only that, but the Abe administration is currently trying to keep American bases in Okinawa, even though in the last prefectural elections, the winnin candidate ran exactly on a platform to transfer the base somewhere else.

>>13406434
yeah, it's the fucking Okinawan who want to kick the US out, the Diet in Tokyo doesn't want that.

And there's nothing with the current remilitarization, si vis pacem para bellum.

>>13406384
If a major US news outlet gave you the chance to defend your mangoes on camera, would you?

>>13406483

>>13406439
>yeah, it's the fucking Okinawan who want to kick the US out, the Diet in Tokyo doesn't want that.
Only because it means they don't have to deal with the scum. The mainland prefectures would riot if the US wanted to put a base anywhere on Nippon proper instead of second class territory.

>>13406434
>No, the stance on article 9 he's proposing will just allow Japan to react in self-defense even when the threat isn't directly reaching Japan's shores.
Half the shit Imperial Japan did you could say was "coming to the aid of its allies."

>>13406531
>Only because it means they don't have to deal with the scum. The mainland prefectures would riot if the US wanted to put a base anywhere on Nippon proper instead of second class territory.
I'm sorry but Okinawa has to deal with it, for the good of the nation.

>>13406531
>Half the shit Imperial Japan did you could say was "coming to the aid of its allies."
Yeah, except Japan's modern allies is NATO, who is the good guys.

Sounds a lot like other countries' loose definitions of "self-defence" to me.

>>13406384
Oh no someone please think about the Disney doujins

>>13406553

As such, NATO members have no obligation to assist Japan if it is attacked.

This faggot used to come here to post his netouyo babble so when I saw something support the reform of the 9th article I thought he was going to start again, but I guess I was wrong.

i thought karate was invented by some white guy and has about as much to do with japan as egg rolls have to do with china, and i assumed that's why abe laughed when obama said it.

props for being the only westerner who's ever tried to pronounce karaoke correctly tho.

>>13407563
America is required to assist Japan if it is attacked, per the treaty signed ending Japan's involvement in WW2. If America is attacked as a part of this, NATO members are required to assist America in fighting.

It's a daisy chain of treaties. Any war that Japan starts/receives becomes America's, and then becomes Europe's.
