There was an anime from 1988 called Legendary Armor Samurai Troopers which was localized later as Ronin Warriors. I had completely forgotten about it until watching a Youtube video that casually mentioned it. I probably forgot about it because ninjas are cooler than samurai.
I'm not a conservative, but usually I can understand the points most conservative political cartoonists are trying to make even if I don't agree with them. This however ... I can't seem to explain other than ... I guess it's the artist's weirdly specific fetish laid bare?
I dunno why, but I was just thinking about oekaki and how a LONG LONG time ago I tried my paw at it. It kind of baffled me how people could make amazing art with it at the time and to be honest I am still kind of baffled. Here's some of the art I did during that time.
It also occurs to me that maybe the naming of Narwa/Naruhatatahime is partially inspired by Nu Wa a Chinese goddess who is often depicted with a snake body who is responsible for the creation of humanity and repairing the Pillars of Heaven.
