The art style doesn't excuse the content, sorry. She could've done more and still be 'cartoony', like bruises or putting Japan even a crutch. A band-aide and icepack don't cut it.

And also, while Japan does have means of taking care of itself, you can't deny that Japan needed assistance and that people were justified in being worried and making donations. They absolutely did not have it 'under control', first world country or not. It was a disaster, and the fact that it happened to a first-world country in no way minimizes it.

And I disagree, in case you didn't notice. I felt the comic made light of the disaster, for the reasons I've mentioned. I saw no where mentioned where Japan didn't want the aid, so you're welcome to provide a source to that.

But as I said to the other poster, you've already made up your mind about me and about the comic, so I'm really just wasting my time.

Wow. That's, um...that's some hostility there, anon.

You have some issues with this. I'm sorry that she didn't represent Japan as beat up as you believe the cartoon representation of a person should have been. The whole comic, if you haven't noticed, is based on representing big, often bad (like, say, wars) in small, cartoony ways. Again, much like any actual political comic from the past hundred years.

Does the comic make light of a disaster? Ye-ees? But not in a way that dismisses it. You can do both, actually. Check out people from Louisiana who almost immediately started snarking about Katrina, while at the same time regathering themselves, helping out, or mourning. Sometimes in the wake of a disaster, you need that levity.

Japan did not need the assistance as much as the smaller islands and places still struggling with previous disasters did, but Japan was the country getting all of the media attention, and therefore the lion's share of the aid. Again, that is the whole point of the comic.

But yes, you are wasting your time. Not so much in trying to have a discussion or an argument, but in being so angry, years later, about a silly, one-shot comic.

(I mean, heck, Humon's made way more tasteless, indefensible comics. This just seems an odd hill to die on.)
