But he doesn't really understand what "blackface" means does he
He raises very good points
I think he meant the way Tezuka drew it is the stereotypical black face
The African characters are overt racial caricatures, so the hypocrisy of Kimba worshippers trying to make it seem like their show is the victim of racism is disgraceful.
But blackface is based on stereotypical racial depictions, not the other way around.
The video is such dogshit, he overused the same fucking example and same montages and you supposed to think it's "funny", fuck this dgo fucking asshole
Retard.
That's what you're after, right? That's the type of reaction you want?
Confused terminology, minstrel show features nevertheless
Are you autistic?
This was a way better video than the first half of his Lion King review. There was a lot of research done on the kimba video where as his Lion King one just feels more like rambling.
You and YMS are a faggot
>THEY TOOK OUT THE TRIANGLE
>triangle isn't audible in either
No but I have athlete's foot if that also works as an argument for you.
I'm sorry that your Japanese cartoon wasn't actually plagiarized, user.
While it's reasonable and fair to bring up the less than tasteful way africans were drawn, I don't really appreciate how willing he is to throw Tezuka under the bus for it. He was a very progressive thinker for his time, but that doesn't change the fact that he was also a product of his time and had all of the internalized biases that come with it. That doesn't make them right, but that doesn't make Tezuka a bad person either.
It feels kind of wrong to me to not acknowledge that in favor of just making jabs, but Adam already has a bias against animation (and anything that isn't an arthouse film for that matter) so I guess this is par for the course for him.
music fags are so obnoxious
His video about Kimba and Lion King similarities being a coincidence is quite weak, there is absolutely no way Claw didn't inspired Scar for example, they share the same identical design, personality and even their plans are similar.
Lion King anime movie such terrible rip off, user
It was more an issue with them saying 'we had the chance to expand the orchestra' then removed elements from the music. He also pointed out the lack of percussion in certain tracks which was very fair.
>Quite weak
It's literally all fucking coincidences. Save for maybe, MAYBE Claw's design. They aren't the same fucking character at all.
"Blackface" sounds slightly worse than "racial caricature", so this particular content creator compromised on accuracy to strengthen his case. He's a hypocrite but that doesn't make him wrong.
Kimba, Simba? Mmmm, suspicious.
Thanks, ESL satan
The fact YMS had to ignore Claw and Scar even though they are important characters to both stories already show they had serious doubts about their own theory.
His TLK2019 video is great but this one is so fucking annoying; the cramped editing makes his dumb falsetto even more grating.
Still the guy deserves his opinion to be recognized if only for the sheer amount of old nonsense anime he consumed to make it.
His video is actually quite useful to makes us wonder how to measure the odds of a work being a rip off
He fucked up. He started on the right foot by selling the idea of a merely "anti-extremist" video, but in the end he himself is cherrypicking the examples to maximize the idea of "Kimba is just 600 hours of nonsense"; to sell your position as neutral you need to actually address and casually undermine valid points against your actual position, not just ignore them.
I assume he was banking on making the video 3 fucking hours long so people wouldn't pay much attention.
Is there even a formula for that? I don't think anyone can deny Goku backstory is a Superman reference but YMS Lion King defence show how none of the lion stories similarities are impossible to happen.
As a big fan of both series, it's pretty clear YMS lied and told a lot of half-truths, but we know he can be honest about this cause his husband, Scar, which he admits he would like to fuck, because bestiality is okay, would be be mad at him.
Like anything on the internet, a good shitpost with good production value is sold as truth for people who are not truly into animation or movies in general, only casuals and simpletons would take his video as a good example of research of how people put "academic research".
