Kadokawa manga censorship controversy

Kadokawa on Manga “We Must Create a New Standard for What Can Be Shown in Public” – Sankaku Complex

The beginning of the end? Sounds like self-hating western SJW bullshit is even creeping into Japan now!

• Kadokawa President Takeshi Natsuno participated in an Abema Prime show
• Says manga are "unable to pass the examination of Google and Apple"
• Also says that there should be a "new standard for what can be shown in public"

Now it seems the corrupt West might be doing what it does best, as instead of trying to produce a good product, they might be instead utilizing subterfuge to force the Japanese manga industry to submit to their politics.

Kadokawa President Apologizes for "Pro-Censorship" Remarks - Interest - Anime News Network

Kadokawa president and chief executive officer Takeshi Natsuno apologized on Wednesday for "inappropriate remarks" he made last week concerning sexually stimulating content in manga. His comments, which were made on an Abema Prime program regarding the appropriateness of gravure in boy's magazines, were criticized for expressing a "pro-censorship" view and for conveying a misleading impression of Kadokawa's corporate direction.

To repent, he's taking a 20% pay cut for three months.

Noodle Gun – The No Agenda Glossary

When a noodle boy / girl / kid uses social media to try and cancel something or someone they don’t like.

“Social media came into the fray. And I see Noodle Boy now having what I’m going to call a Noodle Gun. Not quite knowing how to use it yet, but when they figure it out, when their aim is true and it’s loaded — they’re getting pretty good.”

From No Agenda episode 1250.
