Its a can of worms to be sure but anime and manga has had a history of not caring foreign standards and practices which was honestly the appeal to a lot of people due to being unfiltered. This whole fiasco could have been avoided with more research but they genuinely seem oblivious to the response the word might have caused. Good old times when the leader of a nation that almost wiped out an entire race, experimented with humans and also belonged to a self called superior race was called Führer King Bradley and noone gave a single fuck are officially over.

Shuiesha has now put itself in a dangerous position where they can now bend down to the will of twitter mobs if they ever get this explosive again sacrificing the integrity of the artists in question. That's pretty significant. Also people are still going to push the notion that it was Horikoshi's intention to name the character after that incident despite all the evidence that shows the contrary. Anyways unlike Kodansha with Attack On Titan they did bow down to the outcry and changed the name to save face and not to lose out on a potential market.
People would give a fuck. Actually, people always give a fuck, it's just in the past internet is not that big for everyone to know and give a fuck.

I mean not really. Its funny how the west are just now waking up to Attack On Titan's fascist themes years after its release despite it being a significant part of the story since the beginning and is outright stated to not be a good thing but I guess the immense popularity of the series drowned out all the accusations until recently, The the Swastika issue has always been a thing.
No doubt. I don't think its censorship at all since it was never an intention of the author to begin with unlike the case with Attack On Titan.
I know about the lenght, but i remember that a lot of volumes of the newer series always had a release after the 15th chapter. A lot of time happens when the series is already dropped or nearly to be. In this case, a whole month prior is a lot.
In my opinion, however, it is pure and simple censorship, and censorship is never a good thing.
Some One Piece games are good too.
I'm more partial to the Grand Battle games back when "Power Stone" was the template for arena fighters instead of Budokai Tenkaichi (Sparking!) . Super Grand Battle X was a nice spiritual successor too,

That would have made it even worse honestly.
A team made by a kliq like the riot one? Riot the one revealed to have men working in that being cunts to other people.Yeah, I prefer that Shueshia doesn't change to that style, even if japanese style company sucks
What the fuck is this game? Why does it look better than most last gen console games? How is this a mobile game? What.

Censorship exists everywhere. This isn't a new concept. Cities and countries that aren't in the west are usually very controlling about what is allowed and isn't.
And I repeat, is it a right thing? Not for me, and trust me as an Italian I know how deadly censorship in the world of anime and manga is.
Do you actually read what I typed? I already knew riot are a bunch of assholes, but what I advocated for is a team specialised in localisation in order to not offense anyone like what Hori just did.
Ice King it was never his intention to reference the event in question. This stance would make sense if Hori intentionally made it to reference that event as a statement but he didn't. I agree that it wasn't really a mistake just a misconception between culture barriers that shouldn't have sparked such controversy.
Dude, I understand your point, but your examples are goddamn horrible. And there is no point arguing people like Ice King. It's like talking to a wall.
lol calm down, this is a forum not everyone take this as a serious business like you.
Well, this is a forum for people actually read and understand what they are replying to.
If said author wants to publish his work in that region, then yeah.
1)I don't cared about what you feel.
