Their entire life is 100 % geared on getting western money and western adulation, then they turn around and shit talk us like crazy. >“Americans shoot things and they blow up and the like, so as you’d expect, they make movies like that,” said Miyazaki at the time.>“If someone is the enemy, it’s okay to kill endless numbers of them,” he continued. “Lord of the Rings is like that. If it’s the enemy, there’s killing without separation between civilians and soldiers. That falls within collateral damage. How many people are being killed in attacks in Afghanistan? The Lord of the Rings is a movie that has no problem doing celebrating mass murder. If you read the original work, you’ll understand, but in reality, the ones who were being killed are Asians and Africans. Those who don’t know that, yet say they love fantasy are idiots.”>“Even in the Indiana Jones movies, there is a white guy who, ‘bang,’ shoots people, right? Japanese people who go along and enjoy with that are unbelievably embarrassing. You are the ones that, ‘bang,’ get shot. Watching those without any self-awareness is unbelievable. A country like America views you as less than an animal.”>“I dislike the United States that dropped the nuclear bombs and does not regret it.” He added that he was “against Americanization” and “hates" people who are proud that cheap Japanese cars are popular in America. "And I look at people who wear badges of the U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force that filled Vietnam with dioxins as enemies.” He also claimed to be “Anti-jeans, anti-bourbon, anti-burgers”, “Anti-fried chicken, anti-cola, anti-American coffee”, and “Anti-New York, Anti-West Coast, Disneyland."
I'd like to think that his opinion of us has improved in these last few years~

>>220817128This guy is literally a fucking idiot. Orcs represented unrestrained industrialization. It was a metaphor for how losing touch with nature and embracing the war machine turned men into monsters. Stupid slant eyed goldfish eater doesn't realize he's on the same side.

Miyazaki with a shit take on something? Imagine my shock

>>220817128you just discovered this? happy birthday I guess
Miyazaki has a couple of pretty shit takes, but he's right about more things than he's wrong about.
>>220817128>Their entire life is 100 % geared on getting western money and western adulation, then they turn around and shit talk us like crazy.Miyazaki never expected to become popular in the west. He was too worried about keeping on business after gambling everything on Ghibli. Back then Japanese animators didn't even dream on becoming popular outside Japan and it took decades for the industry to realize they have fans overseas. Actually they're still struggling, that's why you get weebs and nips alike worried about the westernification of anime and Anno saying anime should be still aimed to Japan and westerners should adapt instead

I remember the days from 2022-24 when posts in this format repeatedly broke the bump limit and there would be several of them at the same time on the log. Good times.
>>220817249You got to admit Americans like to kill indiscriminatelly and they see the world as cowboys vs indians. Since the war against indians until today, the favorite militar tactic of the US army is to bomb villages full of women and children under the pretense that they're subhuman and therefore inherently evil.
>>220817500That’s false of course, but Miyazaki hates Americans cause they firebombed his precious pre-industrial Japan. The Japanese Empire committed atrocities in Manchuria and China and SEA that make Manifest Destiny look provincial. Miyazaki is a blatantly obvious pedophile anyways, he’s just like Lewis Carrol, in love with his little girl OC. He’s a creep.
>Ching chong nip nong gongWhatever you say, Miyazaki.
>>220817796>his precious pre-industrial Japan>The Japanese EmpireAnon if you've ever watched The Wind Rises you'd know for a fact that Miyazaki hates Imperial Japan just as much as the U.S given Imperial Japan's imperial delusions were a foreign import that destroyed all of what remained of pre-Meiji Japan. He's less like Mishima and more like a weird Buddhist version of Ted Kaczynski.
>>220817845This anon gets it
>>220817128>whites are cucks and that's why i hate japanese
>>220817845Japan was ruled by a brutal hereditary warrior caste for almost 1500 years and imperial Japan was the exact same ideology and most of the same people adapted to incorporate western industrialism and civil service norms. This only ended when Japan was conquered by America and forced the emperor to renounce his divinity. Japs love war and conquest without any western intervention and that’s a fact. Putting your seat back on the bullet train makes them want to kill all gaijin. Miyazaki's got an awesomely compelling artistic vision but that doesn’t mean his takes are any good. The other Ghibli guy is better anyways. He doesn’t get the attention he deserves because Miyazaki is out there being a disgruntled hippy
>>220818019>imperial Japan was the exact same ideology and most of the same people adapted to incorporate western industrialism and civil service normsIt wasn't at all in any way, shape, or form. This is like saying Nazi Germany was the same thing as pre-WWI Prussia because they were both militarized German states in the same region while ignoring the extremely important transformational events between the two that completely reshaped and reformed what they were. >Japs love war and conquest without any western intervention and that’s a fact.You're literally regurgitating shitty war propaganda from Frank Capra that is completely ahistorical. Japan pre-Meiji period never had any ambitions of "conquest" or "colonialism" with the lone exception of the ill-fated Imjin War that turned them off from it for another 300+ years, hell the Japs never even got to Hokkaido until the 1800s given the concept was alien to them. It absolutely had war and militarism but that was almost all domestic conflict between competing warlords and families that were feudal conflicts.>Putting your seat back on the bullet train makes them want to kill all gaijinAnd why wouldn't they at this point? Japan's a pretty great country all things considered. I wouldn't want it to be flooded with Jeets and SEA monkeys either. I wish other countries were more like them in this regard, especially Europe.>that doesn’t mean his takes are any goodI think his worldview is very interesting and analogous to Kaczynski in many ways. His personal life and relationship with his son is a dumpster fire but that makes him all the more complex and interesting given how much of his work is done in contrast. If he really were some hippie cuck like the West tends to paint him as he wouldn't be half as compelling nor would his movies be very good.>The other Ghibli guy is better anywaysTrue
>Be jap>Live in the past>Make slop game/movie/manga/literature/policies>The west eats it up>Japanese ego increases
>>220817128Miyazaki is absolutely hated by the Japanese far-right.
>>220818480I don't think his political hot takes are particularly popular with any major group
>>220818019Takahata's dramas about menstruation and child death aren't as marketable as fantasy adventure stories full of plucky girls and creatures destined to become overpriced plushies at your local Barnes and Noble.Pom Poko is a banger and its a shame westerners can only see it as the raccoon balls movie.
>>220817175He's bitter because he's one of the few Japanese who realized their own culture is demented, targeted towards coomers, and derivative.The truly enlightened ones are people like Kojima, who also realized it's the West that produces all valuable media, and stuck to it.
>>220817383It's worth pointing out that most of Studio Ghibli's early films only got major English dubs many years after their original release in Japan.>Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind - originally released in 1984, English dub was released in 2003 (not counting Warriors of the Wind because that was absolute fucking cancer)>Castle in the Sky - originally released in 1986, English dub wasn't released until 2003 (had actually been completed around 2000 but had its release pushed back multiple times)>My Neighbor Totoro - originally released in 1988, English dub released in 2004>Kiki's Delivery Service - originally released in 1989, English dub released in 1997It's only since Spirited Away (mainly because John Lasseter is a weeb and fellow loli enjoyer who convinced Miyazaki to sell the distribution rights to Disney) that Ghibli films have had co-current English releases.
>>220818571>dramas about menstruation and child deathI think it's less that and more that his films are very hard for people outside of very certain contexts to appreciate. You need to be a world weary person to truly appreciate those films. Only Yesterday is a fantastic film if you're an aimless young to middle aged urban adult with daydreams of bucolic rural life stemming from bitterness about your atomized existence and lost innocence. Graves meanwhile has an enduring reputation as one of the most relentlessly bleak films ever made while the political context of it revolving around civilian deaths in an Axis country at the hands of Allied atrocities doubly puts a cap on its popularity (though it has gotten way more popular in recent years, especially in the context of Gaza, Iran, and Ukraine).Ultimately though, I think it's that his films are so very unabashedly Japanese in a way that lacks international appeal outside of /film/ audiences. Pom Poko is nigh-incomprehensible to even educated and witty viewers that lack the cultural context surrounding the premise while Kaguya's story is completely alien to Western audiences. Add that on top of his two most popular films (Graves and Only Yesterday) having these roadblocks too and you have a built-in filter for normalfags.That's fine by me though. Those films are incredible and some of the best that will ever be made in animation or in general, and their reputation will endure in ways both similar and different to Miyazaki's.>adventure stories full of plucky girls and creatures destined to become overpriced plushies at your local Barnes and NobleTBF Miyazaki wasn't like this. His filmography before SA with the exception of his against-type masterowrk The Wind Rises was much more diverse and interesting.
> A country like America views you as less than an animal.”Isn't this 100% true? Just read any 4chan board. You could read a random thread on any board and you'll see people claiming the superiority of white people and talking about how much they hate Black people, Indians, Asians etc
>>220818222There are functional differences between Imperial Japan and the Shogunate but they both exhort bushido, loyalty, and worshipped the Emperor. Same goes for Prussians and the Nazis with their own values. The character of a people doesn’t change that quickly unless it is imposed. Think Norman Conquest. What an ideology says about itself or how a bureaucracy functions has little to do with what a society actually is. I’m not regurgitating propaganda. It seems like you are a dedicated weaboo and that’s great but japs are a deeply warlike people and I think that’s pretty obvious. You can quibble about the word conquest but the fact is when Japan could invade and control their neighbors, they did so. Maybe that’s true of any society, but blaming “the west” for Japan’s imperialism is incorrect.I am glad they are getting more xenophobic but they are very prissy about it. That kind of bitchiness can spiral out of control. Even hippie cucks can have valuable insights into the human experience.
>>220817128They are massively asspained after the war. Watching nhk documentaries and you can feel the salt coming through being like “THESE are the fat ugly gaijin… utterly incompetent… (who beat us)… describing their production system (shit white piggu freaks…)”A good way to trigger a jap is show them the plethora of war bride photos of jap women IMMEDIATELY jumping on bwc after they started tramp stamping (military basing) their nation. War bride phenomenon is so funny. They said “veteran who fought for us? Nah i want the bwc who gives me coffee and bread lel”

Because that anime series based on Heidi that he worked on has been a staple on German television since my mum was a kid, back in the 70's.
>>220818945>>220818698Slit your fucking throats you racist pieces of fucking garbage, before you shoot up some innocent Japanese people.
>>220818946Good.Japan is one of the most civilised countries in the world makes sense they’d hate obese, violent subhumans who spread lies and hatred about them.
>>220817220Japan has one of the lowest crime rates in the world you lying American subhuman.
>>220818480Yeah. He's always been an outspoken leftist. There's a place for a conservative leftist more than there are for progressive rightists, these days.
>>220818849>they both exhort bushido, loyalty, and worshipped the EmperorAgain, apples to oranges. That's like arguing German Nationalism meant the same thing under Bismarck that it did under Hitler.>The character of a people doesn’t change that quickly unless it is imposedAnd I'm saying that your conception of the Japanese as a bunch of sociopathic bug people is incorrect. It's much more accurate to say that they swing towards culturally-ingrained extremes rather than always going towards one direction unless somebody has a boot on their neck. The fact that Japan had virtually no direct foreign influence for the entirety of its history up until the Perry Expedition and had a very feudal conception of itself is proof that the picture is far more complicated.>I’m not regurgitating propagandaYou are because the idea that the Japanese believed in the concept of "Empire" and "Conquest" before 1868 is absurd. Japan hadn't even established control over the home islands until 1869 when they colonized and brought Hokkaido into the fold and they didn't get the Ryukyus until the 1870s. The only time before that when the Japanese tried to expand was with the Imjin War that was such a failure it shell-shocked the Japanese from ever doing so again for over 300 years.>blaming “the west” for Japan’s imperialism is incorrectIf that's the case then why did the Meiji restoration and revolution all happen during the high tide of European domination and interstate competition. Why did they feel the need to give a shit about Russia, Taiwan, Korea, and the Qing after not doing so for their entire history up until that point? Why did they even consider democracy or liberalism at all when it's such a gross aberration in the history of that country?

>>220818222>>220819079Hey, Zoom Zoom. I watched that shitty Michael Chrichton movie starring the guy who's been in no good movies. It's amazing how even though it's cheap scifi futurism it just felt like a derivative cop flick.Did you ever make a thread about that dogshit 1989 Adam Sandler movie?And do you have any takes on Yasujiro Ozu?
>>220819079Never said they were bug people my good weeb. Japs had exchange of trade, culture, language, and migration with all of Asia and later Europe for their entire history. Unsurprisingly it’s hard to invade or be invaded by island nations. Why did they give a shit about Russia, Europe, and China? Because they were a major global player with their ambitions.You seem to believe Japs were uniquely isolationist and not warlike. I don’t see it.I assume it is proper for you to commit seppuku at once
>>220819403Nah being a hypocrite is saying Japanese people are violent and potential sexual predators when America has the highest violent crime rates in the world and J*ws and n*ggers factually get away with raping minors.
>>220819429Chinks are more warlike than Japanese.Look at how many pointless civil wars they had throughout history.
>>220819079>The fact that Japan had virtually no direct foreign influence for the entirety of its history up until the Perry ExpeditionFucking weebs, where'd kanji come from again?
>>220819079>virtually no direct foreign influence for the entirety of its history up until the Perry ExpeditionLiterally every single time they were modernized was via foreign influence. If not for the Chinese/Portugal-Spain-Netherlands/The U.S. they would be still illiterate mud hut dwellers engaged in never-ending civil wars.
>>220819414>that shitty Michael Chrichton movie starring the guy who's been in no good moviesI will not hear any slander against Mr. Baseball.>Did you ever make a thread about that dogshit 1989 Adam Sandler movie?I did, it was a cute little thread.>And do you have any takes on Yasujiro Ozu?I like him, Late Autumn is my personal favorite. I recently just watched Valley Girl.>>220819540>where'd kanji come from again?Like I said, no DIRECT foreign influence. Japan wasn't a part of China during that time, they merely borrowed the alphabet given they didn't have one of their own before then and found it convenient for trade given everyone else in Asia used some variation of Chinese text.>>220819565>every single time they were modernized was via foreign influenceGoing by your logic the English never would've amounted to anything without Rome, which is an absurd statement on par with that one Norwegian tourism ad that said "erm ackchyually Norway isn't real because of all this Norwegian stuff originated elsewhere and...">>220819429>Never said they were bug people my good weebYou explicitly that they were uniquely violent and subservient people.>Japs had exchange of trade, culture, language, and migration with all of Asia and later Europe for their entire history. Every place in the world has. Difference is most other places in the world aren't Japan, especially when it comes to places at the edge of the map like them.>You seem to believe Japs were uniquely isolationist and not warlikeI believe they were uniquely isolationist. I never denied they weren't "warlike" given everyone was "warlike" before 1945, just that they aren't esepcially savage nor expansionist given they spent virtually all of their history before the Perry expedition piddling around on their insignificant archipelago.
>>220819565I would allow 1 million civilised Japanese people in my country over a single chink/beaner/pajeet.Cry more racist moron.
>>220819725Don’t even reply to this nigger.I’m going on social media right now and people are currently angry at an Indian subhuman for stabbing some white kid in UK, these Japan hate threads are a perfect way for brownoids to take the heat off themselves.
>>220817845Japan has been into foreign conquest ever since the at least 15th century - see the earliest atempted conquest of Korea. Also asians and japs in particular arebsome the biggest fucking rapists and plunderers in history barring muslims. Even in wwii they were gang raping australian nurses. Just because they didnt have the ability to project power the wayn europeans could doenst mean they were better. Id argue they were way worse.

the biggest problem here is that most people don't understand how big anti-japanese propagandists are
and the saddest part is people like this op don't care about miyazaki at allmiyazaki talk shit about japan most so they should like him if anything but they just use him to make japan look badthey only care about ''what can we use to shit on japan?''
actually there's no other country paying more money to the US than Japanafter all, this shit is a result of westerners being spolied when it comes to Japan so the anti-Japanese internet warriors can take advantage of it miyazaki only talked shit about the us for a few times and that interview is from the early 2000s, which was the bush erabut gaijins take out things like that of context and then post it 10000000 times so they can make up a false reallity like ''miyazaki always talk shit about the us while not talking shit about japan''that's basically just how discrimination is normalizedI'd unironically argue no other country is treated more unfairly than Japan on earth at least people know palestine is being fucked or indians are getting bullied but people are unironically blind to what they are doing to Japan

>>220822645he was basically talking about the movie at first obviously and thinking he hasn't read LOTR or doesn't know that Tolkien is British is retarded see? that is your usual dumb gaijin take. how can you not find it ironic? it's all so tiresome
I am a fan of Ghibli.
