Not necessarily, but it is just a joke. I'm not telling you what to do. It's your prerogative. I just found it odd and felt the need to point it out. Just cause.

So are you intentionally ignoring the obvious stereotype in that video you posted? Not that it got under my skin (I'm not sure if I'm obligated to feel offended or not), but I can see what other people could have a problem with.


Nope.
I don't consider it offensive at all.

For one, stereotypes exist for a reason...esopecially when used in comedy.

For another if a character talks using the tone/speech/mannerism of one group or another, how does that make it better or worse?

First homophobia, now racist humor? Man this thread goes places.

Indeed. All thanks to everyone's favorite troll, Lotion Sor-something



The only troll here is you Rez-man.

You insist on taking an issue with a humorous video. You insist on taking offense in the name of others to boot.
You know what - I'm offended that you're offended.
I'm calling YOU out on calling me out.

@Hanar Iconoclasm and racism are not really comparable IMO. And just going on shock value is also not the same thing.

@Lotion, not really worth a serious response but I will say:

Oh well in that case it must be OK!

Douche.

And because you think it's not OK, then it must be so?


Douche!

If you can't see any reason beyond "because I think so" that's because you're a willfully ignorant racist. And since you invoked Godwin's Law: you know who were also racists? The ****s. Hypocrite.

Wait, how is Filament a German personal computer during WW2?

I don't think that is even a real thing.

Hahahahaha!
You make me laugh sir.

And you can spare me your moral posturing too.
Take all the offense you want, but "because you think so" is no better a justification.
Just because you think something racist or offensive doesnt' make it so.
Go fight for some real causes instead of playing a white knight on the internet.

I'm glad we could reach an amicable resolution to our disagreement. =]

Is it the olden series?

I'm of the understanding that it's the new series. Hisoka has red hair.

I'm on episode 19 now. Apparently there are 56 (or 57 or 58) episodes on this site, and that's all of them currently? And this anime (/the manga from which it's derived) is still being produced?

Gon seems kind of self-defeatingly dumb/idealistic, lol. I take it this is a deconstruction of some sort. I was gonna (lol) say of empty-headed heroes like Goku but apparently Gon is anti-Goku. But also a reference to Goku what with catching the giant fish at the beginning. I'm confused.

The manga is still being made but Togashi goes on hiatus... A LOT. They don't call it Hiatus x Hiatus for nothing.

The new show will still have a ton of episodes.

Good that Gon comes off that way to you. He is "dumb", idealistic and selfish to a crazy degree...

I strongly urge you to watch the old series. It's worthy. The new one is not, in my honest opinion...

My lack of anime viewing is low, so I feel out of place, tbh.

I've seen it once, when happily drunk. Needless to say I loved it!

So I've finally started Future Diary. Five episodes in and I'm liking it quite a bit so far.

Watched Hellsing: Ultimate up to episode 9. Can't wait for the last episode. Surprised, I usually don't like these types of shows.

In other news, I kinda laughed when seeing Gohan change super saiyan for the first. He seemed so... somewhat... constipated I guess.


That's pretty common in the show. There will be a few times it'll come off as genuine anger as opposed to trying to force a large turd out of their intestines, but those are pretty few and far between IIRC.

My favorite moment in the entire Dragonball franchise is, I think, when Android 16 fought Cell, was defeated, gave guidance to Gohan, and when he was destroyed -- though it does pose a question on how one would define life, given 16's persona -- Gohan's rage was released.

All of that, all of it, was so ****ing badass.  

As was the bit where he was easily kicking the crap out of Cell. 16 is one of my favorite characters in the show.

My only gripe however is that in the midst of the awesomeness with the awesome music playing in the background.... it randomly cuts to Hercule and other pathetic people while playing derpy music.
