I feel like animanga is popping up more and more in the new LARPs/hoaxes that get pumped out. >Pokémon cards are suddenly very popular and people are even robbing and killing just to get them to resell>One Piece is used in protesting the gov. of several countries >Boy that shot up a school in Turkey said he was Konata from Lucky Star>Dude wearing a Demon Slayer shirt supposedly skitzs tf out and breaks into a home>Whitehouse shooter had a Blue Sky account with Kagura from Gintama as pfp(picrel), and was supposedly a fan of the seriesThere might be more to be honest, but no pop to my mind atm. I never remember having weeby stuff used this much in in the psyops before. Here and there, but it seems it is being sprinkled in there alot these last several months or so.Is there a reason? Is it just because animanga s more popular now, or is there a darker reason?
>>42320919Here is Cole Allen's Blue Sky account with Kagura pfp.Thanks in advance as always!!!(sorry, I forgot, lol)
>>42320919>anime is popular>people use it to signal>government uses ot to countersignalit's not complicated anon. it's memetic warfare.
>>42320919>>Pokémon cards are suddenly very popular and people are even robbing and killing just to get them to resellThis is twenty year old news. People died over Pokemon before you were born.
>>42321925Most of the killing that involved it where within the last few years, from my quick search at least.
Weebs won the cultural victory. Sorry.
why not talk about the recent mass purge of the online archives taken down
>>42322792Weird, I was thinking about this image lately, well the one this is based on.
>>42322789Okay but that isnt what OP says. OP says a sudden jump in popularity - which is much smaller than the huge explosion when they first came out - and that people have even been stealing/killing, which has been the case from the very beginning.
>>42323590Yeah, very popular again is better phrasing sure, but all the crime linked with them was at oldest from 2023, from my quick search at least.
>>42321901It was popular before the last year or so, why the surge now?
>>42324409That's the speed of bureacracy
>>42321901Not complicated if you're retarded.
>>42324020>very popular againWhat "again"? It never stopped being popular. It is the highest grossing franchise in history.>but all the crime linked with them was at oldest from 2023Factually incorrect.>Yano, Christine R. "Panic Attacks: Anti-Pokémon Voices in Global Markets".>"November 1999 seemed to be a peak month for Pokémon-related crime and violence."
>>42320919You remember all those people killed in Hiroshima and Nagasaki?They remember your kin.They remember you.You remember that scene in Castlevania? The one where they mark every door with the sigil of Saturn?You remember the blood the Hebrews painted their houses with during passover?Do you remember that psychic pokemon cards have the Evil Eye pasted on every card?Did you know I'm inside your house?I am coming for you.
>>42325531Fair enough, but as I said this was from my quick search of Pokémon crime.
>>42326054?
