  $70 for a few episode in japan seems normal, but in America, tv shows cost maybe $20-$30 on DVD for 12episodes. Anime here tends to cost $20 for four episodes, and while cheaper than in Japan, it is that comparison which results inns thinking that the price is high.

  Some talk about bad dubs reminds me of these Digimon dubs. Finnish “talent” at it’s best. Would I pay for this? No. Would I watch this from TV? No. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYFLL2WY9O0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0arFsVFTM7k&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ex4KMgrt9wY&feature=related

  Sure go ahead an blame the foreign human right activist for all of it while your dear politicians continue to bow to every command the activists lay while licking their shoes. The issue you guys have is that your politicians are making easy popularity points out of content bans because you 2ch people barely unite anywhere outside the internet where any data can be easily dismissed as made up. We never see you guys do actual movements to go against all this. All you do is stay behind the …

  I think in some cases the western companies deserve a big chunk of the blame I mean look at the Macross series, 7 and F did not come out internationally for very good reasons I must say

  You’re talking about the very few occasions where the local DVD’s actually come out. Take the three Eldora robot animes for an example, you gotta have some crazy amounts of love to be still waiting for that one

  The issue is our culture in the US. We bitch about outsourcing yet allow companies to do this to protect their extreme profits. Trickle-down works on paper, but it was never enforced; it was all volunteer. No one volunteered. And you’re asking greedy companies to pay well… good luck with that in American Capitalism (which has spread like a disease). Next is the cost of bills etc. I never understood why our electricity bill is so high and why in my area no company has invested in solar. Pass …

  Granted, our social safety net is pretty thin. This reminds me of how my stepdad wants me to get a job in Southern California with little work experience during my summer break. I refuse to flip burgers and be treated like shit.

  Many companies can afford demands most other western countries have written into law, it just cuts into their profits too much for them to like.

  More like unions are killing job opportunities here in the US. My dad actually once worked in a factory, and when the union came in, it killed it. People who own factories here in the US can’t afford the ridiculous high labor costs unions force them to pay their work force. You can only make so much money from a product afteral. So guess what? They move those factories overseas where labor is cheaper.

  Emotionally healthy people shouldn’t give a fuck about perceived moral implications of joblessness. People who use NEET as a curse-word have far greater issues in their personal lives than the social status of strangers.
