So? "Maybe this time it won't be total ass" isn't the greatest slogan.

They weren't thrilled about a black guy in the main cast as I recall. Though that might have just been 2ch being 2ch.

>>135081185
I'm pretty sure Japan loves Star Wars though. It has been a big influence on Japanese pop culture, despite SW is strongly influenced by Japan. The new movie is a by-the-number capeshit so I guess kids prefer to watch their favorite yokais on the big screen

Isn't YW anime related? /tv/ wouldn't even know what it is. They would think it's Pokemon.

I've never watched any Star Wars ever nor do I know about any of the plot if it has any. What's the appeal recently? To me it just seems like the next hyped fad like how Frozen was and I'm not going to bother getting into any of these films just because everyone else is and I see no appeal whatsoever.

I suppose the Japs feel the same way, only clinging to their cultural fad which is now Yokai.

>While Yo-kai Watch attracted more people than Star Wars, the latter brought in more money thanks to higher-priced tickets, including for IMAX showings. “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” earned ¥1.25 billion ($10.3 million) in two days, compared with ¥1.06 billion for Yo-kai Watch.

You have to be a love of mythos to actually love the game as most are based off of Japanese folklore.

I don't see how it would of been a success unless they remove all the Japanese monsters and replace them with ugly Latin-American ones.

>>135082225
They didn't really rape Star Wars in TFA like they did with Indiana Jones (not to mention Lucas isn't involved in TFA). Unless you count casting a black guy as a co-protagonist as raping the series.

It was just a shameless copy of A New Hope with original donutsteel characters and planets.

>>135081196
He had the most screen time out of all the male characters in the movie, but he's not the main character, that would be the girl.

How to spot someone who hasn't seen it. Finn is the comic relief sidekick. He's literally a joke that exists to highlight how amazing the empowered womyn protagonist is repeatedly. Though to be fair everyone including Han fucking Solo also exists for that purpose.

I actually would rather Fin had been the protagonist. He was more relatable and had more potential for character development than Rey by a country mile. He also somehow managed to be better acted.

With a Luke Skywalker Yoda falls in love.

To confess unable, gifted by a deus ex machina with the Jedi's phone number, the little green alien is. Never minding the strange area code, he immediately calls him, and crush on him as well, is overjoyed to find out that he has.

But, the next day, when to Skywalker Yoda recounts the previous day's confessions, with a perplexed expression he only looks at him. After some investigation, the Jedi master finds out that the boy he called is the same boy he fell in love with not. In fact, he exists not in this universe at all. Luke's alternate universe counterpart, he is, fallen in love with the alien's own AU self, who has, blissfully unaware of his crush, who too is.

To give each other their darkest hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal, to equip the other with the weapons they need to conquer the heart of their other selves most private secrets in order. Their respective loved ones while the two chase, to fall in love with each other instead and question the NATURE of JEDI drama ensues as they begin. Hmmmmmmmm.

Yes there is nothing wrong with it. They allow travel and promote trade with other nations that's all they have to do. No country has to accept anothers pop culture or allow droves of subhumans in.

Fuck Star Wars, I hate that franchise so badly.

Huh? I heard SW is extremely popular in Japan.

I just hope there's more fanart.
Tumblr is terrible.

>taking advantage of other cultures and reaping the benefits of their labor while at the same time patting themselves on the back for work they never did

I thought Rey was relatively good, but honestly that just goes to show how garbage the west is at making female characters.
Seriously if you named the best 50 western characters, there would be 49 males and Luna Lovegood.

Though I guess the opposite could be said about anime, the best 50 /a/ characters are 49 girls and Kaiki.

>not Jed-ai
You fucked up

>>135090889
Jed-Ai features yaoi fanfiction between Obi Wan and Darth Maul.

I would watch TFA with the main girl getting dubbed by Y.Aoi. It would be a much more enjoyable experience.

>The Japanese enjoy their own culture more than importing culture from outside

I'm happy for them. Ganbatte, Japan, keep your cultural identity intact instead of eroding it.

Can't say I care.
Disney deserves to die off.

Star wars isn't nearly as cute as Yokai Watch.

>>135086781
The average anon that likes DBZ or Saint Seiya is cholo. Poe is a mediterranean white guy, like the ones who built the western civilization while germans and nordics were fucking goats

>>135087958
>everyone including Han fucking Solo also exists for that purpose.
But HAN SOLO DIES by Kylo Ren's saber.

Not anime or manga.

>>135089813
Allowing trade and some travel is fine but any more is unneeded. Unfettered immigration is killing the US and especially western Europe.

I'm pretty sure TFA is beating Yo-kai watch now though

>>135089902
