Do you like when an anime references American culture or do you find it forced?

Not American culture, but I love it when they 'speak' English
Ethan Robinson
Music references are always nice.
Luke Johnson
On one hand It is søy wars, on the other hand its the original trilogy and its aping the 70s poster
I aprove.
Ryder Collins
>a film that was very popular in japan is "a forced american culture reference"
Joshua Wood
I don't know what Japan's obsession with Star Wars is. Urusei Yatsura threw in a lot of SW references, and I mean, they blatantly used the characters in the show when it made no sense to.
Grayson Gutierrez
Besides, what the fuck is a "forced reference" anyway?
Brayden Moore
Old scifi shit satisfy otaku autism, urusei yatsura had quite a few Star trek references too.
Jason Mitchell
A missable reference, like a poster or something in the background is cool. Just means that someone wanted to show love to the reference/other fans of said reference that would catch it.
Full on mentions or worse, conversations of pop culture will never, ever, ever not be cringe.
Charles Reyes
probably because the original star wars movies are good
Cooper James
>forced
nah.. this is forced. blatant in your face reference
Andrew James
it's when OP is a troll using language he knows will rub people the wrong way and make it harder for them to ignore his thread
Jackson Thomas
>Damn, that's a huge snake bitch
Said by an American soldier but came across sounding absolutely awful
Oliver Howard
Star Wars is a huge in Japa, it might as well be apart of Japanese culture as well.
Jaxon King
star wars is huge in general not just in japan
Robert Clark
what
Gabriel Garcia
Same reason everybody else was
Ryder Bailey
Referencing stuff is fine as long as it's tasteful. Direct references to literary and philosophical shit is almost always what makes me grit my teeth.
Colton Roberts
For their time. They're nothing special now. It's like the Beatles. Revolutionary in the 60s but their songs are kind of outclassed by what came later.
Adrian Gray
There's nothing wrong with a subtle reference here and there.
Ryan Allen
Star Wars culturally appropriated Japanese culture and the Japanese loved it as opposed to being offended by it.
Christian Parker
>Star Wars culturally appropriated Japanese culture
What?
