She's pretty

i take back my word but im truly "For World Peace!!"

>Kwalau
well, i admire your enthusiasm. but oreno.imouto is just a picture site.

hey look a wikipedia page
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinomoto_oniko

Going by that page...um....maybe she's kinda like a heroine against the Japanese?
(Not even close I'm pretty sure.)

From what I can understand, she is a parody of 日本鬼子, a derogatory term that refers to the Japanese. She's kind of a literal interpretation of the characters...its like using moe to combat all the Japanese hate left over from WWII.

Unfortunately not everyone realizes that's a slur in English nowadays. （￣へ￣）

What a complex background，anyway the behavior of this artist is still unacceptable to a part of our Chinese.

in a few days, some one in China will draw her raped/tortured/burned and we will be back where we started.

I doubt that'll bother the Japanese much, pretty much every anime/manga/moe gijinka ends up being drawn raped by Japanese doujin artists anyway. I'm sure this won't be an exception. (´･ω･｀)

I don't get all the hub bub over drawing a girl with horns and an onii mask, and naming her after an insult phrase....

I get where they're coming from - 20 years of recession, a hung parliament, a sucession of weak prime ministers, falling birth rates and population, and increasingly assertive neighbors (first Chinese claims in the south followed by an opportunistic move by Russians over the Kurils) will cause even the staunchest hikkikomori to feel a little nationalistic - but I agree a 2D illustration will not do anything to change international politics.

as for whether the artist (or rather doujin artists) behavior is acceptable, I think it's perfectly fine to express their opinions just as it's perfectly fine for the Chinese to protest at the Japanese embassy. at least nobody ever gets hurt from a doujin drawing.

Asians hate each other so much that it makes European countries look like one happy fluffy family. The best we can do is try to stay out of it. That's all.

Also, never mind Artefag and his "news", he's just pandering to a bunch of weeaboos thinking they know shit about racial relations in Asia.

"Artefag" huuurrr a duuuurrr. ( ﾟ∀ﾟ)ｱﾊﾊ八八ﾉヽﾉヽﾉヽﾉ ＼ / ＼/ ＼ー
His stuff should never be taken too seriously, but they're interesting at least.

Hope anime is out!

We are from China and we LOVE our motherland----CHINA!Japanese people draw these pictures also because they love their motherland.

Ya! You are right. But You can't hurt other just because you love your motherland. Please don't be selfish.

Oh i see. I will tell you a story, it is about oniko-chan.
Oniko-chan is a beautiful and kind girl. But someone hate her, insult her, because her father is a massive murderer. Do you think this fair??

WtfCakes said:

It's getting attention because it was a very creative, non-violent way to counter the online insults from some Chinese people about Japanese people. So we went from the insult being ~"Japanese Devils" to this cute girl. Really takes the fangs out of the insult. It IS kinda hard to have your insult continue to have any impact when it's been turned into a drawing of a cute girl. ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ Now will it really have any impact on international relations? No, probably not, but it'll probably help cool down online interchanges between Chinese & Japanese, and tension is pretty high at the moment so that's not a bad thing. ~(=^・・^) ヾ(^^ )

No it's not fair. She's not done anything, so attacking her with insults and stuff is lowering you to the same level as her father (albeit not as extreme). （￣へ￣）

No,I haven' hurt or insult anyone and won't.The anime girl is innocent.Oniko-chan is innocent too.For me,I just won't accept why some japanese put this word besides a pure girl.We love japanese anime,so we come to this site.Anime is art,just appreciate it!Why someone use it to express political or historical issues.I do not like japanese,just because they don't addmit what japanese soldiers have done during WWII,not how they kill how much innocent people(grammar mistake?).And they contiue hurt the people which they have invaded during WWII,like visit the Yasukuni Shrine.

to forgive, we need to understand. and to understand, we need to learn. The internet is populated with dumbasses because learning is the hardest part.

Yes，maybe we can forgive the past，but we can't forget.
So the best way is leave those thing alone，but not mention it at such a field.

we must forgive, but also learn those history so that never repeat.

If the discussion is shifting to politics, I suggest that we continue in the forum and not here.

Art has been used for political purposes since the dawn of time. China's also used art for propaganda extensively (all those portraits of Mao come to mind.) To expect people to not use anime-style art for the same purposes is... well, you'll have better luck teaching pigs to fly. There's even been anime that the whole series is basically one giant political statement. (I remember Arjuna in particular, it's basically one giant message encouraging environmentalism.) (ー.ー")

Additionally there's quite an extensive history of Japanese anime fans online creating moe gijinka of pretty much everything. Countries, issues, etc. That someone finally did it for this issue is unsurprising in the least. Actually it's more surprising that it didn't happen sooner. （￣～￣;）

As for the rest, you seem to be trying to oversimplify matters (just as an example, Yasukani shrine has been enshrining Japan's soldiers since 1879, so the amount of WWII war criminals enshrined there is a small percentage of the total. So of course people still visit it, most innocently.) and you also seem really upset that this art has taken the sting out of your country-mates favorite online insult against the Japanese. So apparently it's working like it was intended. I'd suggest less insults and more constructive conversations (for BOTH sides) going forward. Insults don't do anything but make people on both sides feel worse and prolong the damage done.

QFT, Manabi; you said pretty much everything I had in mind and more.

Agreed. Manabi has taken the words out of my mouth, and shed much light on this matter.

Well this is becoming a post with most comments.

If you've not seen Arjuna, it's much more than just sponsored by. The entire storyline relies on the fact that humanity is destroying the environment and needs to stop doing so and learn to live in harmony with nature. Basically if you took all the environmental stuff out of Arjuna, you'd not have anything left. （￣～￣;）

'日本鬼子' has become a pretty girl? where is "小日本"？
