and dropped ! I love anime & manga ... and I think the Japanese are pretty cool ... but I despise the completely retarded way they misinterpret/use Norse mythology in manga/anime ... the Valkyrie were NOT brainless bimbos ... nor were they obsessed with love affairs with human men (that was added much later) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valkyrie https://norse-mythology.org/gods-and-creatures/valkyries/ ... and Einherjar were NOT timid little idiots obsessed with hiding from everyone, that just happened to look like big scary demonic monsters https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einherjar

yeah, so, uh.....anime logic > reality

@ Tsukuyomi ... using your logic ... then why don't they do an anime with a completely idiotic version of Jesus ... or Mohammed ... oh that's right, if they did anything at all to anger Islam, the Islamics would terrorize ALL of Japan using little things like suicide bombers, etc ... and there are probably more than a few total devotees of Jesus that would probably be willing to also do things like that to Japan if they felt that the Japanese had insulted Jesus ... so I guess it is perfectly ok for them to insult ancient religions just because the threat of terrorist attacks is minimal from what few people all over the world still follow those old beliefs

@ komugi https://myanimelist.net/anime/15775/Saint%E2%98%86Oniisan and if you search myanimelist database throughly you can find a lot of anime about jesus and mohammed but you don't see any torches and pitchforks flinging left and right do you? Your the only 60-70s adult that I have seen getting enraged about some trivial thing like anime that it makes you sound like a manchild not getting the right ice cream to cool him off.

@komugi Each anime has its own target audience mate. If you don't like it fine but don't bitch about it like every anime was produce FOR YOU. If I did that then Captain Murica should be called Captain Britain or some gay shit.

A better question is wtf does any of this have to do with an anime fanservice show

Fanservice > sissy nordic men

@komugi you lost when you tried to make sense about anime. I mean, we have anime ship girls, lightning bolts on mahjong games, and cervix penetration. Inaccurate Norse mythology would be the least of our problems.

To add on top Tennouji wrote, komugi you're thinking way too much when it comes to anime. Even Japan's own gods and their actual historical figures aren't safe from anime. For instance how they made Oda Nobunaga into a female and part of a harem https://myanimelist.net/anime/11933/Oda_Nobuna_no_Yabou lol get it together man. @pacifictrim Those depictions are false anyways for people like myself who know what's written about them so wouldn't bother me whatsoever. For the clueless and uneducated it's an issue to them. Since that's not Jesus that's a man from the Renaissance period named Cesare Borgia a evil man. His portrait was painted as the new (fake) Christ by his father who was pope at the time to remember his dead son. Mohammad is a Caucasian man (not a Arab) according to their own Hadith.
