CONSIDERATIONS ON REPRESENTATIVE GOVERNMENT
Chapter X—Of the Mode of Voting.
The polling places should be so numerous as to be within easy reach of every voter, and no expenses of conveyance, at the cost of the candidate, should be tolerated under any pretext. The infirm, and they only on medical certificate, should have the right of claiming suitable carriage conveyance at the cost of the state or of the locality. Hustings, poll clerks, and all the necessary machinery of elections, should be at the public charge. Not only the candidate should not be required, he should not be permitted to incur any but a limited and trifling expense for his election. Mr. Hare thinks it desirable that a sum of £50 should be required from every one who places his name on the list of candidates, to prevent persons who have no chance of success, and no real intention of attempting it, from becoming candidates in wantonness or from mere love of notoriety, and perhaps carrying off a few votes which are needed for the return of more serious aspirants. There is one expense which a candidate or his supporters can not help incurring, and which it can hardly be expected that the public should defray for every one who may choose to demand it—that of making his claims known to the electors, by advertisements, placards, and circulars. For all necessary expenses of this kind the £50 proposed by Mr. Hare, if allowed to be drawn upon for these purposes (it might be made £100 if requisite), ought to be sufficient. If the friends of the candidate choose to go to expense for committees and canvassing, there are no means of preventing them; but such expenses out of the candidates's own pocket, or any expenses whatever beyond the deposit of £50 (or £100), should be illegal and punishable. If there appeared any likelihood that opinion would refuse to connive at falsehood, a declaration on oath or honor should be required from every member, on taking his seat, that he had not expended, nor would expend, money or money's worth beyond the £50, directly or indirectly, for the purposes of his election; and if the assertion were proved to be false or the pledge to have been broken, he should be liable to the penalties of perjury. It is probable that those penalties, by showing that the Legislature was in earnest, would turn the course of opinion in the same direction, and would hinder it from regarding, as has hitherto done, this most serious crime against society as a venial peccadillo. When once this effect has been produced, there need be no doubt that the declaration on oath or honor would be considered binding. [6] "Opinion tolerates a false disclaimer only when it already tolerates the thing disclaimed." This is notoriously the case with regard to electoral corruption. There has never yet been, among political men, any real and serious attempt to prevent bribery, because there has been no real desire that elections should not be costly. Their costliness is an advantage to those who can afford the expense by excluding a multitude of competitors; and any thing, however noxious, is cherished as having a conservative tendency, if it limits the access to Parliament to rich men. This is a rooted feeling among our legislators of both political parties, and is almost the only point on which I believe them to be really ill-intentioned. They care comparatively little who votes, as long as they feel assured that none but persons of their own class can be voted for. They know that they can rely on the fellow-feeling of one of their class with another, while the subservience of nouveaux enrichis who are knocking at the door of the class is a still surer reliance; and that nothing very hostile to the class interests or feelings of the rich need be apprehended under the most democratic suffrage, as long as democratic persons can be prevented from being elected to Parliament. But, even from their own point of view, this balancing of evil by evil, instead of combining good with good, is a wretched policy. The object should be to bring together the best members of both classes, under such a tenure as shall induce them to lay aside their class preferences, and pursue jointly the path traced by the common interest, instead of allowing the class feelings of the Many to have full swing in the constituencies, subject to the impediment of having to act through persons imbued with the class feelings of the Few.
■ Regarding the free release of the new species previewed and the reason for making the support site the main platform for releasing new species:
While the free release on the Kurobinega website is at my discretion, I'm considering doing so roughly once every three or two paid releases.
The following might not be particularly relevant to English-speaking fans, or in other words, to everyone. The reason I'm focusing on early releases is that I want to limit the exposure of MGE and continue creating content on a smaller scale. First of all, I don't want MGE to be a hugely popular restaurant that anyone can enter, nor do I wish to become an internet celebrity. For me, MGE is akin to a reasonably popular local restaurant where like-minded individuals who share my interests gather. By scaling down, my production speed has increased. The period from Dragonewt to Tai Sui was shorter, and the next species should be released sooner. What matters most to me is creating the MGE I want to craft, drawing pictures, and developing games in the world of MGE. I'm delighted when people who value MGE's themes as I do get to see it. Receiving money on support sites like these, allowing me to spend more time on production, is truly appreciated.
Using the stuffed animal analogy again, it truly makes me happy when someone who genuinely loves and cherishes stuffed animals sees the ones I've created. Yet, I can't see those who say they adore stuffed animals but also tolerate and respect those who take pleasure in mutilating them as people who share the same love for stuffed animals as I do. I don't have the inclination to actively show them the stuffed animals I've made.
I believe English-speaking individuals, when witnessing a stuffed animal's head being torn off or the pleasure derived from it, would straightforwardly label it as "crazy." However, it's different in Japan, especially on social media. Even if they dislike watching the stuffed animals being hurt, they'll say, "Let's respect those who enjoy tearing them." This, despite seeing me, someone desperately protecting my stuffed animals, getting attacked by such individuals. There's a prevailing notion in the otaku community, especially on Japanese SNS (Social Media), that "All fetishes must be respected." Speaking out against this, even as a victim, can result in backlash. Not everyone thinks this way, but it's the dominant mindset. Disheartened by this, I didn't want to show them MGE anymore. When you grow to dislike a place, it's only natural to distance yourself, and that's what I've done.
However, this is a problem in Japan. In English-speaking regions, fans typically call out what they dislike, labeling it as "crazy." I have many English-speaking friends who've genuinely helped me in trying times. The MGEwiki admin is also a dear friend. Depending on the English-speaking fan community's dynamics, I might consider releasing content on MGEwiki a month after the early release.
アマプラで昔のアニメばかり見てるが、なぜ今配信されてるのかというと、何周年記念だったり新作アニメ・映画が出るからだったりするんだな。
音楽系アニメが多く作業BGMが増えまくったアニメ視聴だった。今回もまた知らなかった作品と縁ができた。見るものがなくなったらニカ姉とグエルのポケモンでも見る〜？
原文
Japan review it's been a year since I
moved to Japan and I thought it made
sense to finally rate Japan I will talk
about things I like and the things I
don't like which seems to be the only
two options available if you have
so sugoi or did you know Japan is
actually really bad it's got a lot of
survival issues okay I will list one
good thing and bad thing and I will not
hold back there's no trash bins
I have to put in my pocket
oh
there's always these generic things that
you hear or yes when we you visit it's
kind of weird but then you realize it's
not a big deal anyway let's start off
with number one reason I like Japan
it feels like a giant playground no I
don't mean in the Logan Paul kind of
sense of doing whatever the hell you
want
but rather there's a infinite things all
right lazy feels like to explore and
experience and I've been here a year now
and I don't think I'm gonna get bored
anytime soon although I am having a
child so I don't know how much more I
but it really feels like a whole new
world and if you visited you can
probably relate to it and I'm glad that
even a year in it still feels incredibly
fresh and I even would say that you
realize that the best part of Japan
aren't the touristy places kind of
obviously but there are so many areas
that I found that I really enjoy
visiting and this is probably more
specific to me but you know Tokyo is
very busy and so many times I just catch
myself surrounded by what feels like
hundreds of people and they have no idea
everyone is just doing their own thing
now once it was staring at me no one's
following me no one's being weird you
guys are weird and I'm just kidding I
just love the feeling of being able to
exist in public and uh not worrying
about what everyone else is doing like
I've said this before but I genuinely
enjoy talking to fans or when people
approach me it always makes me happy but
it can be kind of frustrating to always
wanting to just do your own thing and
always be
you know so yeah let's move on to the
bad things of Japan number one reason
Japan is bad it's kind of a heavy
subject and I haven't seen anyone else
really talk about it it's not brought up
very often at least and that is cones
there's too many cones in Japan once you
see it you cannot unsee it they're
everywhere they say oh Japan has so many
vending machines there's like five per
there's more cones than people why are
there so many cones I need to know we
got the tall ones we got the small ones
we got the funny ones the cute ones the
sexy ones I do like those I just don't
understand that whoever plays these
cones think I'm just gonna barge through
oh thank God there's cones here
otherwise I had no idea what I was gonna
and I realized the cone history of Japan
stretches centuries okay if you played
Animal Crossing sometimes it's a
Japanese game so sometimes you get these
items right you're like oh that's kind
of weird I don't know exactly what that
is but it's probably something Japanese
and then you get the bamboo thing and
you're like what the hell is that what
am I even gonna do with that and then
you see it in real life here in Japan
you're like holy [ __ ] it's a cone that's
I feel like they are following me
I'm glad I was able to talk about this
I'm for one and willing to call out
Japan knock it off man no more cones
there's enough cones let me tell you
something even better than cones you may
have noticed new merch finally it's been
forever my mom came over she had
unofficial merge because I literally
have no other merch I've hadn't hadn't
merch I'm sorry Mom so we spruced up the
logo got a cool back design the team
that worked on it really truly
understand how my brand and I think they
did such a good job these pieces look
amazing and I think you guys are gonna
really like them as well these are
available for limited time only so make
sure you order now so excited to finally
have this merch available thanks to
amaze for making this happen we are
gonna have one piece that will stay on
the store so my mom will not buy the
wrong merch but for a limited time that
piece will be available in this color
off-white kind of color it looks really
nice and then after that you can still
get it but not in this color that's
you want this one yeah I get it
so yeah check that out if you're
interested I'm so happy about these
designs and I hope you guys would like
them as well all right reason number two
I like Japan yay when we first announced
that we were gonna move to Japan there
was so many people just saying how bad
Japan is actually did you know Japan is
really bad did you know this I have to
list all these reasons now because
everyone is like thing and then thing
Japan ah so I have to tell them and I
it's actually but one thing in
particular that people said was that old
people really don't like foreigners they
hate them so when I was gonna stop by to
say hi to our neighbors who was a little
older at least some of them I was
terrifying I heard all these stories you
know like what are they gonna do to us
so I had my guard up ready for the worst
and I was met with nothing but kindness
and welcoming and I felt like a total
dick for having this preconceived ideas
and just a side comment like yes there
are definitely probably people that
don't like foreigners and all that stuff
but I realized I should let my own
experience is dictate how I feel about
certain things maybe that's just
ignoring a problem I don't know it just
feels like it's a bad way to approach
life if you always have a negative
expectation you know it's smiling people
smiled back
thank you sometimes they don't and
that's okay you know anyway my point
being Japanese people are very in my own
experience
are very nice and friendly the majority
at least and yes even to foreigners I
feel like they are especially nice to
foreigners because they think we're like
a kid lost at Disneyland or something
I just asked for directions I didn't
need you to walk me for half an hour to
this specific place I was going but
thank you I appreciate it a lot of times
I go bouldering alone and there's always
other groups of people being supportive
and yelling like I'm about there like go
you can do it I love it I think it's
great you know or if you're small
talking with people people generally
want to communicate with you and I love
having those moments but of course
there's times where people are like oh
you're a foreigner I don't feel like
even trying
which again it's fine speaking of which
reason I don't like Japan number two
their language
I have lived here for a year and I'm not
fluent in Japanese
I am dumb I am very dumb I remember the
moment we moved here I had studied some
Let's test out this knowledge that I
have acquired let's go I'm just gonna
come in it's gonna be dangerous and you
enter a store for the first time and
they're like
what
what oh
what the classic the most common
experiences that you have aren't
necessarily what you're taught in the
textbook yay I know I think that's the
same for anyone learning a language for
the first time but don't even get me
started on the kanji main what the [ __ ]
is this I feel like Japanese is such a
hard language obviously but I don't
think people realize how hard it is at
least me personally because the more you
learn the more you realize you don't
know [ __ ]
for English speakers Japanese is
considered one of the most difficult
languages and because it's just so
different I listed it as bad because
that was my first kind of experience
with it coming here but the more I
interact with people the more it feels
like I'm unlocking new skills you know
oh I made a phone call for the first
time oh I could ask someone over the
phone I know big deal but it's like oh I
can actually do that or even just having
a small tiny yes shittiest conversation
with a stranger it's still something and
it feels good you start to all of a
sudden understand you know a movie if
you're watching oh I understand actually
what's going on here or I can play games
and kind of get what this they're saying
I have to look up words obviously but to
me all those new experiences that it
unlocks to me is very rewarding even
though it's such a challenge I would
actually now say it's a good thing I
played it on its head it was a good
thing all along but I obviously have a
and it just I don't think it will damage
time reason number three I like Japan
this is nothing to do with Japan to say
it's more related to me taking a more
relaxed approach to YouTube for my
entire 20s I did nothing but YouTube
that was my life and that's okay but I
also think it was a little toxic
probably you know if I wasn't making
videos I sure as hell was thinking about
making videos I uploaded videos during
and it feels really good to finally be
free from it you know and I can discover
other things in life there are other
things in life
a new hobbies and interest that I've
always wanted to do I can do and have so
much fun with it surfing I know I would
love for the longest time and I finally
get to do it and it's so [ __ ] amazing
I love learning new things anything that
isn't necessarily connected to all of
this on the internet and that is
something I'm very very grateful that I
discovered so yeah it's not really Japan
I could have done that anywhere but it's
largely why I enjoyed so much here
reason I don't like Japan number three
this is probably the most trickiest one
and it's the rules what are the rules
Japan has so many rules and it's a bit
conflicting for me to complain about
because a lot of the best stuff about
Japan not the best stuff but a lot of
the reasons why Japan works so well is
because of the rules you know the trains
are always on time things just work in
general it's hard to explain the streets
are clean people aren't loud in public
and so on and these are sort of societal
rules that make it happen more or less
but sometimes There are rules that just
don't make any sense and I have no
problem following rules as long as I
understand the reason for it you know
don't talk on the phone on the train
because it's generally annoying when
other people do that to you A lot of it
is just be thoughtful of other people
it's not just about you and that just
makes it more pleasant for everyone but
one rule is especially which I talked
about before is the fact that because of
kovid I'm not allowed to be in the
delivery room for our baby for more than
two hours that's because of covered
rules it just doesn't make sense to me
and I tell people about this like uh
family and friends and they're always
like well why don't you just ask them or
like why don't you talk to them I'm sure
you can there's got to be somewhere and
it's like no it's Japan okay there are
rules and people follow the rules for
better or worse you know so the more I

The Sacrament—and the Sacrifice
Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
I pray for your faith and prayers that my utterances will be received and understood “by the Spirit of truth” and that my expressions will be given “by the Spirit of truth” so that we might all be “edified and rejoice together.” (See D&C 50:21–22.)
As I stand here today—a well man—words of gratitude and acknowledgment of divine intervention are so very inadequate in expressing the feelings in my soul.
Six months ago at the April general conference, I was excused from speaking as I was convalescing from a serious operation. My life has been spared, and I now have the pleasant opportunity of acknowledging the blessings, comfort, and ready aid of my Brethren in the First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve, and other wonderful associates and friends to whom I owe so much and who surrounded my dear wife, Ruby, and my family with their time, attention, and prayers. For the inspired doctors and thoughtful nurses I express my deepest gratitude, and for the thoughtful letters and messages of faith and hope received from many places in the world, many expressing, “You have been in our prayers” or “We have been asking our Heavenly Father to spare your life.” Your prayers and mine, thankfully, have been answered.
One unusual card caused me to ponder upon the majesty of it all. It is an original painting by Arta Romney Ballif of the heavens at night with its myriad golden stars. Her caption, taken from Psalms, reads:
“He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
“He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.
“… His understanding is infinite.” (Ps. 147:1, 3–5.)
As I lay in the hospital bed, I meditated on all that had happened to me and studied the contemplative painting by President Marion G. Romney’s sister and the lines from Psalms: “He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.” I was then—and continue to be—awed by the goodness and majesty of the Creator, who knows not only the names of the stars but knows your name and my name—each of us as His sons and daughters.
“When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;
“What is man, that thou art mindful of him? …
“For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.” (Ps. 8:3–5.)
To be remembered is a wonderful thing.
The evening of my health crisis, I knew something very serious had happened to me. Events happened so swiftly—the pain striking with such intensity, my dear Ruby phoning the doctor and our family, and I on my knees leaning over the bathtub for support and some comfort and hoped relief from the pain. I was pleading to my Heavenly Father to spare my life a while longer to give me a little more time to do His work, if it was His will.
While still praying, I began to lose consciousness. The siren of the paramedic truck was the last that I remembered before unconsciousness overtook me, which would last for the next several days.
The terrible pain and commotion of people ceased. I was now in a calm, peaceful setting; all was serene and quiet. I was conscious of two persons in the distance on a hillside, one standing on a higher level than the other. Detailed features were not discernible. The person on the higher level was pointing to something I could not see.
I heard no voices but was conscious of being in a holy presence and atmosphere. During the hours and days that followed, there was impressed again and again upon my mind the eternal mission and exalted position of the Son of Man. I witness to you that He is Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, Savior to all, Redeemer of all mankind, Bestower of infinite love, mercy, and forgiveness, the Light and Life of the world. I knew this truth before—I had never doubted nor wondered. But now I knew, because of the impressions of the Spirit upon my heart and soul, these divine truths in a most unusual way.
I was shown a panoramic view of His earthly ministry: His baptism, His teaching, His healing the sick and lame, the mock trial, His crucifixion, His resurrection and ascension. There followed scenes of His earthly ministry to my mind in impressive detail, confirming scriptural eyewitness accounts. I was being taught, and the eyes of my understanding were opened by the Holy Spirit of God so as to behold many things.
The first scene was of the Savior and His Apostles in the upper chamber on the eve of His betrayal. Following the Passover supper, He instructed and prepared the sacrament of the Lord’s Supper for His dearest friends as a remembrance of His coming sacrifice. It was so impressively portrayed to me—the overwhelming love of the Savior for each. I witnessed His thoughtful concern for significant details—the washing of the dusty feet of each Apostle, His breaking and blessing of the loaf of dark bread and blessing of the wine, then His dreadful disclosure that one would betray Him.
He explained Judas’s departure and told the others of the events soon to take place.
Then followed the Savior’s solemn discourse when He said to the Eleven: “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33.)
Our Savior prayed to His Father and acknowledged the Father as the source of His authority and power—even to the extending of eternal life to all who are worthy.
He prayed, “And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.”
Jesus then reverently added:
“I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
“And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.” (John 17:3–5.)
He pled not only for the disciples called out from the world who had been true to their testimony of Him, “but for them also which shall believe on me through their word.” (John 17:20.)
When they had sung a hymn, Jesus and the Eleven went out to the Mount of Olives. There, in the garden, in some manner beyond our comprehension, the Savior took upon Himself the burden of the sins of mankind from Adam to the end of the world. His agony in the garden, Luke tells us, was so intense “his sweat was as … great drops of blood falling … to the ground.” (Luke 22:44.) He suffered an agony and a burden the like of which no human person would be able to bear. In that hour of anguish our Savior overcame all the power of Satan.
The glorified Lord revealed to Joseph Smith this admonition to all mankind:
“Therefore I command you to repent …
“For … I, God, … suffered … for all, that they might not suffer if they would repent; …
“Which suffering caused myself, even God, the greatest of all, to tremble because of pain, and to bleed at every pore, …
“Wherefore, I command you again to repent, lest I humble you with my almighty power; and that you confess your sins, lest you suffer these punishments.” (D&C 19:15–16, 18, 20.)
During those days of unconsciousness I was given, by the gift and power of the Holy Ghost, a more perfect knowledge of His mission. I was also given a more complete understanding of what it means to exercise, in His name, the authority to unlock the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven for the salvation of all who are faithful. My soul was taught over and over again the events of the betrayal, the mock trial, the scourging of the flesh of even one of the Godhead. I witnessed His struggling up the hill in His weakened condition carrying the cross and His being stretched upon it as it lay on the ground, that the crude spikes could be driven with a mallet into His hands and wrists and feet to secure His body as it hung on the cross for public display.
Crucifixion—the horrible and painful death which He suffered—was chosen from the beginning. By that excruciating death, He descended below all things, as is recorded, that through His resurrection He would ascend above all things. (See D&C 88:6.)
Jesus Christ died in the literal sense in which we will all die. His body lay in the tomb. The immortal spirit of Jesus, chosen as the Savior of mankind, went to those myriads of spirits who had departed mortal life with varying degrees of righteousness to God’s laws. He taught them the “glorious tidings of redemption from the bondage of death, and of possible salvation, … [which was] part of [our] Savior’s foreappointed and unique service to the human family.” (James E. Talmage, Jesus the Christ, Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Co., 1977, p. 671.)
I cannot begin to convey to you the deep impact that these scenes have confirmed upon my soul. I sense their eternal meaning and realize that “nothing in the entire plan of salvation compares in any way in importance with that most transcendent of all events, the atoning sacrifice of our Lord. It is the most important single thing that has ever occurred in the entire history of created things; it is the rock foundation upon which the gospel and all other things rest,” as has been declared. (Bruce R. McConkie, Mormon Doctrine, Salt Lake City: Bookcraft, 1966, p. 60.)
Father Lehi taught his son Jacob and us today:
“Wherefore, redemption cometh in and through the Holy Messiah; for he is full of grace and truth.
“Behold, he offereth himself a sacrifice for sin, to answer the ends of the law, unto all those who have a broken heart and a contrite spirit; and unto none else can the ends of the law be answered.
“Wherefore, how great the importance to make these things known unto the inhabitants of the earth, that they may know that there is no flesh that can dwell in the presence of God, save it be through the merits, and mercy, and grace of the Holy Messiah, who layeth down his life according to the flesh, and taketh it again by the power of the Spirit, that he may bring to pass the resurrection of the dead, being the first that should rise.
“Wherefore, he is the firstfruits unto God, inasmuch as he shall make intercession for all the children of men; and they that believe in him shall be saved.” (2 Ne. 2:6–9.)
Our most valuable worship experience in the sacrament meeting is the sacred ordinance of the sacrament, for it provides the opportunity to focus our minds and hearts upon the Savior and His sacrifice.
The Apostle Paul warned the early Saints against eating this bread and drinking this cup of the Lord unworthily. (See 1 Cor. 11:27–30.)
Our Savior Himself instructed the Nephites, “Whoso eateth and drinketh my flesh and blood unworthily [brings] damnation to his soul.” (3 Ne. 18:29.)
Worthy partakers of the sacrament are in harmony with the Lord and put themselves under covenant with Him to always remember His sacrifice for the sins of the world, to take upon them the name of Christ and to always remember Him, and to keep His commandments. The Savior covenants that we who do so shall have His spirit to be with us and that, if faithful to the end, we may inherit eternal life.
Our Lord revealed to Joseph Smith that “there is no gift greater than the gift of salvation,” which plan includes the ordinance of the sacrament as a continuous reminder of the Savior’s atoning sacrifice. He gave instructions that “it is expedient that the church meet together often to partake of bread and wine in the remembrance of the Lord Jesus.” (D&C 6:13; D&C 20:75.)
Immortality comes to us all as a free gift by the grace of God alone, without works of righteousness. Eternal life, however, is the reward for obedience to the laws and ordinances of His gospel.
I testify to all of you that our Heavenly Father does answer our righteous pleadings. The added knowledge which has come to me has made a great impact upon my life. The gift of the Holy Ghost is a priceless possession and opens the door to our ongoing knowledge of God and eternal joy. Of this I bear witness, in the holy name of Jesus Christ, amen.
「俺は差別主義者じゃないから」とアピールしつつ実際はバリバリ差別してる男多すぎないか…？
どんな感じかと言うとhttps://youtu.be/G9DhghaAxlo
↑この法務省の作成した人権啓発ビデオのドラマ２の同僚みたいな感じだ。「俺は気にしないけど〜」「差別じゃなくて〜」と自分は差別主義者ではないとアピールしつつ実際はバリバリ差別発言している。不思議と女性ではあまり見ず、男ばかりなのだ。
LGBTに対して「そっち系」「あっち系」「そっちの気がある」などと差別丸出しな呼び方をしてるくせに「俺はそういうのに理解あるから」とか。
海外では“I have black friends論法”（黒人の友人を持つ私は、人種差別主義者ではない）と名前を付けられるほど呆れられている行為らしいが、日本ではまだまだ男がやってるよなぁと思ったのであった。

WHAT PARENTS NEED TO KNOW
Parents need to know that the long-running Pokémon series is based on characters from a popular video game, and is part of a giant licensing juggernaut. The Pokémon are kid-appealing, but the series features lots of fantasy violence, and pits the cute, monster-like characters against each other on behalf of their trainers. There are some positive messages (teamwork, sportsmanship, respecting elders), but it may be too intense for younger children.
IS IT ANY GOOD?
Over the years, the energetic, imagination-filled, Japanese-inspired fantasy series has cut across cultural, gender, and age barriers to captivate a global audience of girls, boys, and even adults. But like any product that inspires obsessions, it has received its share of criticism. Folks may also find the franchise's massive commercial appeal disturbing, especially since the show is mainly geared towards kids.
The whole concept of human characters summoning subordinates to battle on their behalf may be troubling to some. This can potentially send iffy messages to children with pets, too. But despite the endless fantasy violence, Pokémon attempts to promote messages about choosing the right path in life and resolving differences peacefully--before the fighting starts.
TALK TO YOUR KIDS ABOUT ...
Families can talk about the popularity of Pokémon in the United States. Why do people of all ages find it appealing? What are the most popular Pokémon? Why?
What are the differences between Pokémon and real-life pets. How do Ash and his friends care for their Pokémon? How do we care for pets differently? Why are the Pokémon loyal to them and fight on their behalf? How about Team Rocket? Can we ever expect animals to fight on our behalf?
今年の頭にアニメ「ラブライブ！虹ヶ咲学園スクールアイドル同好会」にハマり、1期をBDで観た後、2期をリアタイした。
自分自身の夢を見つけた高咲侑にいたく感動し、大好きなキャラになった。
スクスタも一応はじめた。
アニメから入った私にとってスクスタは各メンバーをより掘り下げるようなものであると解釈している。
なのでゲーム中、自身である「あなた」の個性については特になにも思わないし、「あなた」とメンバーとの関係性にも何も思うところはない。
2期本編でTOKIMEKI runnersが流れた場面、高咲侑が自身のもっと表現したい事に気が付くシーンが本当に好きなのだが、どうやらスクスタを永くやっている人からは、思い入れのある曲が勝手に高咲侑作曲になったという見え方もしたらしい。
Love U my friendsしかり、未来ハーモニーしかり、アニメのために制作できる、すでに持っている弾数の中で如何に演出できるかという縛りの中での選択だろうと、制作側の気持ちもなんとなくわかるし、先に思い出ができていた曲がなんかエエ感じのエモいとこや、みたいなタイミングで雑に使われてしまった古参のどちらにも一応同情はできた。
アニメが終わるくらいから終わった後の辺りで、アニメの直前生放送と別で、スクスタ中心の生放送をやっている事や、その中で登 公開される、所謂生首ドラマには高咲侑が出てこない事に気がつく。
まあここまでは理解できる。
その後、ちょうど先月に発売したドラマCD、「純情アマービレ」にも高咲侑はいない事に気がつく。
「あなた」の存在はメンバー同士の声のやりとりで登場させられなくないか...？だったらアニメ版でやったほうがよくないか...？等々色々考えたが、アニメが受け入れられないスクスタ勢への忖度だろ、別に自分に害は無いしまあええけど...と最早アニメ過激派みたいな思想になっていた。
で、5thライブみた。
虹ヶ咲シリーズというか、ラブライブ自体のライブも初めてだった自分にとって、アニメ本編のライブを追体験できることや、2期も含めた集大成のライブに立ち会えたことは、すごく良かった。
4daysでひたすらアニメ時空の演出を繰り返しやった上で「永遠の一瞬」を歌うのは、やっぱりスクスタとアニメはまとめて虹ヶ咲だよっていう事を肯定してくれたのかと思ったし、ライブ中の生首アニメに高咲侑が出てきたのが本当に嬉しかった。
もう古参との思想の違いに苦しむことはないんだなと、勝手に救われた気持ちになっていた。
と思ったら今日の後夜祭放送で公開されたスペシャルドラマ(生首ドラマ)に高咲侑がいない。どういう事.............？？？？？？？
あれだけアニメとスクスタの共存を肯定しておいて、ライブの後夜祭で出すボイスドラマに高咲侑を出さない意味ってある？？？？？？？？？？？？？？？？？
怒りたいのはスクスタ勢の存在じゃなく、今後どういうスタンスでやってくつもりなの？ってこと。
スクスタからアニメに入った人はすんなり受け入れられてるかもしれないけど、アニメから入った人からすると全然意味わかんないからね。当たり前だけど「これはスクスタ時空の話です」なんて前置きはないから。
Twitterを検索してもyoutubeのコメントを見てもこの点に疑問を持っている人がめちゃくちゃ少なくて、なんか自分が間違っているんじゃ無いかと思って書いた。

英語学習ノウハウの記事が定期的に話題に上がるが、自分も含め多くの方は「とりあえずブクマ」してそれっきりにしていると思う。
役に立ちそうなツールや教材をあれもこれもと紹介しているので「とりあえず後で読みそう」とブクマされる。しかし、そういった記事はとにかく情報量が多い。リーディングには○○、リスニングにはXXと、ライティングには□□、発音には△△…と網羅的でとてもやり遂げられる気がしない。いくら素晴らしいウェアやギアやサプリを紹介してもらっても「では今からフルマラソンをやるぞ！」とはなかなかならないのと同じだ。結果、「役に立ちそう」と「でも大変そう」との葛藤を、私たちはブクマという形で折衷させている。
そこでここでは、2000時間の英語学習経験からたどり着いた、「1日30分、この練習だけ続けてもらえれば英語力が着実に伸びるはず」というシンプルな方法を述べてみる。僕は海外在住や留学経験ゼロのドメドメ日本人だが、英語を身につけたことで外資への転職を果たし、今はGAFAの一角で働いている。英語以外のスキルや業務経験ももちろん大切だが、英語が苦手な日本人が多い中、やはり英語力はアドバンテージになる。感覚的には、面接の通過率が3-5倍になったと思う。
「シンプル」な方法とは書いたが「イージー」ではない。1日30分を継続するのだからそれなりに努力は求められる。ただし、アクションには迷わないよう、やるべきことは明確にしておくので、ぜひ実行に移し、キャリアアップや夢の実現に役立ててもらえたら嬉しい。
なお、本記事ではスキル領域をリスニングに限定して述べる。スピーキングについては機会があればまた詳しく書くが、自分の場合は瞬間英作文の本を数冊反復＋レアジョブでの実践で、ある程度意思疎通できるようになった。一方でリスニングについては習得にかなり苦戦した（今もしている）。以前お世話になった英語の先生も「スピーキングの方が一般に習得が早いんですよ」と言っていた。
なので、自分同様に苦戦している方、リスニングの伸ばし方が分からないという方も多いのではないかと考え、ここではリスニングの習得法を書くこととする。仕事でネイテイブと話さなきゃいけないのにチンプンカンプンで辛いとか、ジョークを聞いて周囲が爆笑しているのに自分だけ意味がつかめていなくて寂しいとか、そんな経験のある方はぜひ読んでいただきたい。
一言で言えばリピーティング。具体的なやり方については↓この方（Dr.D氏）の動画があるのでそれを参照してほしい。
■海外ドラマ(Friends)のコピーイング／リピーティングに挑戦【前編】
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6NQykyXM-8
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IA1Ep37GsJQ
ネイティブ音声をシラブル（音節）に分解し、個々の発音やアクセントの位置を確認する。そしてできるだけスムーズにつなげて発声する。発音の知識がないと最初は苦労するが、解説を聞きながら見よう見まねで練習する。動画でも言っているが、練習をする前と後で、その音声の聞こえ方が変わってくる。音声に対する解像度が上がったような感じが得られるはず。
同氏のチャンネルにはドラマやTEDを題材にした動画が数十個あるので、片っ端からやる。1-2ヶ月はかかると思うが、そのころには耳の改善を実感できているはず。
動画がなくなってきたら、あるいは練習のやり方がわかってきたら、おすすめの教材としてはTEDICT。僕もずっとこれでやっているが、知識のインプットにもなる。あとはLanguage Reactor (旧 Language Learning with Netflix) 。あとはTOEICやってる方ならPart2の短文とか。いずれにしても、数秒のフレーズを繰り返し（＋スロー）再生できるツールなら何でもよい。
■英語のリスニングアプリなら「TEDICT」がおすすめ！ 詳しい使用方法を解説
https://eigomonogatari.com/tedict/
■【Netflixで字幕を同時表示】Language Reactor (旧 Language Learning with Netflix) の使い方
リピーティングに似た練習法で「シャドーイング」がある（詳細はググってください）。僕もけっこうやっていたが、自分にはリピーティングのほうが効果的だったと思う。約１秒遅れですぐに発声しなければならないシャドーイングよりは、余裕をもって正しい音を頭の中でイメージしてから発声するリピーティングのほうが、ネイティブの音が頭に染み込むからではないかと思う。
学習2000時間のうちリスニングに約半分の1000時間、そのうち約850時間をシャドーイングに費やしていたが、急速にネイティブの言葉がわかるようになっていったのは最後の150時間、リピーティング主体に切り替えてからだった。850時間の蓄積もムダではないとは思っているが、もっと早く本記事の練習法を始めていれば、ここまで遠回りすることもなかっただろうと思う。
ちなみに「聞き流し」はシャドーイング以上におすすめできない。以前、ヒアリングマラソン的な学習も500時間くらいやったが効果が感じられず止めてしまった。やはり耳だけを使った学習は定着効率が悪いと思う。
自分の場合は１日30分でも成長を実感できた。YoutubeやTEDの英語がだんだん理解できるようになっていくのが分かって嬉しかった。もちろん、やれるなら１時間、２時間と勉強したほうがいい。生まれた時から英語のシャワーを浴びているネイティブに近づくためには量は不可欠。
ただ、言うまでもなく「質」のほうが大切で、だらだら２時間やるよりは集中して30分のほうがよい。というか、この練習をちゃんとやれば30分でへとへとになるはず。まずは30分の習慣化で成長を実感し、自信をつけたらだんだん時間を増やしたり、他の領域（スピーキングなど）に手を広げていったらよいと思う。
上記の動画さえ観てもらえればこの記事の目的はほぼ達成なのだけど、これだけだと単なるDr.Dメソッドの紹介になってしまうので、自分なりに気づいた、大切な心がまえを少し述べたい。
それは「英語の学習」はなく「モノマネの修業」をするような気持ちでリピーティングに臨むこと。動画の音声について、発音やアクセント、音のつながり、変化、省略、イントネーションなどを徹底的に完コピする。そのネタで明日モノマネ大会に出るくらいのつもりで再現に励む。↓こんな感じで実際に人前で披露する機会があれば言うことなし。めっちゃ懸命に練習すると思う。
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzY7vGewmNQ
完コピしようと思ったら、5回10回の反復では足りない。数十回、100回と必要になる（といっても時間はそんなにかからない。3秒のフレーズなら100回繰り返しても5分である）。繰り返すうちにネイティブの発声が耳と脳に馴染んでくる。そうなればそのフレーズは以後聞き取れるようになる。自分で発声できるのだから、聞き取れないがわけない。
また、語学の勉強だと思えば苦痛になるが、モノマネ芸を磨いているのだと思えば、練習に夢中になれる。絵や音楽などの芸と同じで30分くらいはすぐに経過する。だから継続しやすく習慣化しやすく効果が出やすい。それがこの方法を勧める理由の１つでもある。
逆に、やってはいけないのは、いわゆる「ジャパニーズイングリッシュ」に引っ張られてしまうこと。たとえばNot at allは「のっとあっとおーる」ではない。ネイティブは「ノラロー」みたいに言う。それをきちんと真似る。「のっとあっと…」と発音しているうちは、ネイティブの「ノラロー」は絶対に聞き取れない。同様に、I have to...は「あいはーふとぅー」ではなく「アｨハフタ」だ。
このあたり、日本人の真面目さと丁寧さが裏目に出てしまうところである。我々はつい「あいはーふとぅー」と発音してしまう。丁寧に発音したほうが聞き取りやすいだろうという無意識の気遣いもあるのかもしれない。しかし実際には逆で、ネイティブは「アｨハフタ」でないと違和感を抱く。ネイティブ固有の「手抜き発音」を知り、それをそっくり真似ることに対して、我々は真面目で丁寧である必要がある。つまり「手を抜くことに対して手を抜かない」ことが肝心だ。
自分も矯正に相当苦労したが、若い頃に学校で身につけてしまった日本人的発音はもはや「呪い」である。ゼロではなく、マイナスからのスタートだ。正しいネイティブ音を意識しようとする僕らを容赦なく反対方面の深淵に引きずり込む。リピーティングを徹底して、洗脳と言えるくらいのレベルで練習し、自分が日本人であることを忘れるくらいに脳をネイティブの音で上書きしよう。
ネイティブのモノマネをしようと思ったら、ネイティブ発音のメカニズムや技術を学ぶ必要が出てくる。上記のような「モノマネマインドセット」で臨んでいれば、自然と発音学習に興味が湧いてくる。そうなったらしめたもの。Dr.D氏はじめYoutubeの各種解説動画やネットの解説サイト、書籍などで学習する。たとえば"アィハフタ"を上手にモノマネしたいなら、"a"の発音法をきちんと学ぶ必要がある。
https://athinkingrice.com/pronunciation/ae-how-to
大切なのは、この「興味が湧く」プロセスをすっ飛ばしていきなり発音の勉強をしようとしないことだ。発音は英語学習に不可欠な一方で、謎の発音記号が出てきたりでわかりにくいので、モチベーションがなければ必ず挫折する。発音本を買ったものの数ページでギブアップした方も多いと思う。「もっと上手くモノマネできるようになりたい！」「そのためにはどうすればいい？」という気持ちが湧いてから発音に取り組むこと。
…というわけで、2000時間（4年かかった）を経た今、この方法が最もリスニング向上に効くのではないかと思っている。本気で英語をどうにかしたい！という方は、30分／日をなんとか確保して上記の方法をチャレンジしてみてほしい。スキマ時間を集めればそれほど難しいことではないはず。
Приветствую всех и с добрым временем суток. Меня зовут Юра. Я из России. Это не моё настоящее имя, действую в целях анонимности, прошу любить и жаловать. В мире, как мы все знаем, 24 февраля началась и продолжается по сей день "Спецоперация на Украине". Воистину это ужасное событие, которое влечёт за собой тысячи и тысячи жертв с обеих сторон конфликта. Цель "Спецоперации на Украине" - Денацификация Украины. Если вам в новостных каналах и в средствах массовой информации говорят, что цель спецоперации - не денацификация - значит таковы новости, таковы их источники, ничего не поделать. Каково моё мнение на этот счёт? Начну с того, что лично я против любой войны. Для меня война - это зло, это насилие. И то, что всю Россию и россиян в целом считают агрессором и просто ужасными людьми - это плохо, потому что ужасные люди и аггресоры - это те люди, которые ведут себя подобным образом и хотят тем самым разжигать пламя войны ещё сильнее дабы получить с этого удовлетворение в виде ещё одного убийства, прощения со стороны жертв, которые молят о пощаде и прочего. В России и так находятся миллионы людей, которые категорически против войны и которые не хотят, чтобы их считали последними тварями только потому, что так всё получилось. У меня, например, есть несколько друзей с Украины, которые сейчас находятся там и переживают эти взрывы, бомбы, ракеты и всё остальное, что перечислять не хочу. Я продолжаю держать с ними контакт и мы, слава богу, не думаем обо всём этом и стараемся поддерживать друг друга благодаря весёлым мемам, смешным видео, просто хорошим новостям из разных индустрий, чтобы хоть как-то разрядиться. Ведь самое главное, самое главное - война не изменила наши умы потому, что мы знаем что война не должна быть тем препятствием, благодаря которому наша дружба должна рухнуть. За это я их и ценю. Что держатся и не падают духом даже в такие тяжёлые дни и не "ищут предателей среди своих друзей, только потому что они русские", так сказать. Конечно же, есть и обратные примеры, что с начала войны некоторые мои знакомые начали отстаивать свою позицию как русских, что украинцы не люди и вообще спецоперация всё сделает к лучшему, что "мы сравняем города с землёй" и "денацифируем всё"... К сожалению, с такими людьми уже и общаться стыдно, что уж говорить, всё очевидно. В моём городе, например, я пока не наблюдаю сильной пропаганды, что "мы должны верить в то, что мы следуем справедливой цели", что всё образуется именно так как надо. Ну, даже если пропаганда и существует у нас, то я её и не наблюдаю. Да и не хочу наблюдать, потому что, как мне кажется, такую информацию стоить игнорировать и жить дальше, следуя своей цели в жизни. Я никогда не считал себя патриотом своей страны. Это звучит странно, да, но и врать мне нет смысла в этом. Я родился в России - значит так должно было случиться. Тем более я б хотел, что бы один из моих друзей на Украине, вот как раз один из них, смог пережить эту войну и смог поиграть в ту же самую Kingdom Hearts 4, т.к. я его с этой серией игр и познакомил. Я бы очень хотел, чтобы он увидел продолжение данной серии игр, чтобы он смог это вё увидеть. Я очень на это надеюсь. Ведь я, он, и многие другие такие же обычные люди - ходим на работу, спим, едим, играем, отдыхаем. И также я просто хочу, чтобы те, кто слушает меня сейчас не считали всех русских и россиян плохими, потому что я в вас верю, абсолютно всех. И неважно какой вы расы, неважно какой религии верите, это неважно. Главное, что вы остаётесь теми людьми, в которых можно верить, на которых можно надеяться и которые продолжают думать о том, что всё будет хорошо. И даже если у кого-то есть силы на то, чтобы исправить эту всю ситуацию, у кого есть эти возможности - то они смогут это изменить к лучшему и всё сделать мирно, что очень очень важно для нас сейчас. Поэтому я верю в мир, который обязательно наступит. И он наступит именно таким, что украинцы, что русские смогут пожать руки и сказать, что "Всё. У нас будет мир, у нас будет всё." Спасибо за внимание.
Greetings to all and with a good time of day. My name is Yura. I'm from Russia. This is not my real name, I act for the purposes of anonymity, I ask you to love and favor. In the world, as we all know, on February 24, the "Special Operation in Ukraine" began and continues to this day. Truly, this is a terrible event that entails thousands and thousands of victims on both sides of the conflict. The purpose of the "Special Operation in Ukraine" is the Denazification of Ukraine. If you are told in the news channels and in the media that the purpose of the special operation is not denazification, then this is the news, these are their sources, nothing can be done. What is my opinion on this? To begin with, I personally am against any war. For me, war is evil, it is violence. And the fact that the whole of Russia and Russians as a whole are considered an aggressor and just terrible people is bad, because terrible people and aggressors are those people who behave in this way and thereby want to kindle the flames of war even more in order to get satisfaction from this in the form of another murder, forgiveness from the victims who beg for mercy and other things. There are already millions of people in Russia who are categorically against the war and who do not want to be considered the last creatures just because everything turned out that way. For example, I have several friends from Ukraine who are currently there and are experiencing these explosions, bombs, rockets and everything else that I do not want to list. I continue to keep in touch with them and, thank God, we don't think about all this and try to support each other through funny memes, funny videos, just good news from different industries to somehow discharge. After all, the most important thing, the most important thing is that the war has not changed our minds because we know that war should not be the obstacle through which our friendship should collapse. That's why I appreciate them. That they hold on and do not lose heart even in such difficult days and do not "look for traitors among their friends, just because they are Russians," so to speak. Of course, there are also reverse examples that since the beginning of the war, some of my friends have begun to defend their position as Russians, that Ukrainians are not people and in general the special operation will do everything for the better, that "we will level cities to the ground" and "denazify everything"... Unfortunately, it's already a shame to communicate with such people, what can I say, everything is obvious. In my city, for example, I have not yet observed strong propaganda that "we must believe that we are following a fair goal," that everything will work out exactly as it should. Well, even if propaganda exists here, I don't observe it. And I don't want to watch, because, as it seems to me, such information should be ignored and live on, following my goal in life. I have never considered myself a patriot of my country. It sounds strange, yes, but there's no point in lying to me about it. I was born in Russia - so it had to happen. Moreover, I would like one of my friends in Ukraine, just one of them, to be able to survive this war and be able to play the Kingdom Hearts 4, because I introduced him to this game series . I would really like him to see the continuation of this game series, so that he could see it. I really hope so. After all, I, he, and many others are just ordinary people - we go to work, sleep, eat, play, relax. And also I just want those who are listening to me now not to consider all Russians and Russians bad, because I believe in you, absolutely everyone. And no matter what race you are, no matter what religion you believe, it doesn't matter. The main thing is that you remain the people in whom you can believe, on whom you can hope and who continue to think that everything will be fine. And even if someone has the strength to fix this whole situation, who has these opportunities, they will be able to change it for the better and do everything peacefully, which is very very important for us now. Therefore, I believe in peace, which will surely come. And it will come exactly like that, that Ukrainians, that Russians will be able to shake hands and say that "Everything. We will have peace, we will have everything." Thanks for attention.
私はロシア出身のЮраです。{増田注：この「ゆ」にちょっと似た形の文字はなんと発音も「ゆ」に近い……つか英語と違って一文字で「ゆ」の発音になるんだなあ面白い}これは名無しとしてふるまうための仮名です。あなたの愛と好意を願います。ご存じのとおり、世界では「ウクライナでの特別作戦」が２月１４日に始まり今も続いています。本当に恐ろしい出来事です。この衝突で双方が膨大な死者を出しています。この「ウクライナでの特別作戦」の目的はウクライナの非ナチ化です。もし「この作戦の目的は非ナチ化ではない」とメディアが言ったらそれこそニュースです。これが彼らの情報源です。どうにもなりません。
これについての私の意見は何か？ まず、私は個人的にあらゆる戦争に反対します。私にとって戦争は悪で、暴力です。また、ロシア全体やロシア人全体を侵略者や単に悪人のようにとらえるのはよくないことです。なぜなら悪人や侵略者とは、このように行動して戦火をさらに燃え上がらせることで殺人や被害者の命乞いから満足感を得る人々のことだからです。
断固として戦争に反対したり、全てが今のようになったからという理由だけで最低の生物だと思われたくないと思ったりしているロシア人がすでに何百万人もいます。たとえば私には、今もウクライナで爆発や爆撃やミサイルなど、書き並べたくもないような目にあっている友人が数人います。私はいまも彼らと連絡を取り続けており、そして、神よ、ありがたいことに私たちはそのような恐ろしいことについて考えず、面白いミームや動画、別の分野からのいいニュースを交換しています。
結局、大切なこと…一番大切なことは、戦争が私たちの友情の妨げになってはならないと知っているので、私たちはこの戦争によって心を変えられていないということです。これが彼らに感謝している理由です。彼らはあのような辛い日々の中でも耐え、心を失わず、「ロシア人だからと言うだけの理由で、友の中から裏切り者を探さない」のです。もちろん戦争が始まる時には逆の例もありました。私の友人の一部はロシア人としての立場を守り始め、「ウクライナ人は人ではなく、特別作戦ですべてはよくなる。あの街を地ならしし、すべてを非ナチ化する」と言っていました。不幸なことに、このような人々と会話することはすでに恥です。何が言えるだろう、全ては明らかです。
たとえば私の街ではまだ「我々は公正な目標に従っている、そう信じればすべてはうまくいく」のような強いプロパガンダは見ていません。いいえ、もしそのようなものがあったとしても私は見ません。見たくもありません。そのようなものは私が自分の人生の目標に近づくためには無視しなければならないもののように思えるからです。私は自分自身が愛国者だと思ったことはありません。奇妙に聞こえるでしょうが、この点において嘘はありません。私はロシアに生まれました。だからこうならなければいけなかったのです。また、私はウクライナの友人の1人に、そう1人に生き延びてキングダムハーツ４をやってほしいです。私が彼に勧めたシリーズだからです。どうしても彼にこのシリーズの続きを見てほしい。本当にそう願います。結局、私も彼も、他の皆もただの普通の人々です。私たちは働き、眠り、食べ、遊び、安らぎます、
この話を聞いているみなさん、どうかすべてのロシア人を悪と考えないでください。私はあなたがた全員を絶対に信じています。あなたがどんな人種であろうと、どんな宗教を信じていようと、関係ありません。重要なのは自分自身を信頼でき、自分自身に期待でき、全てがうまくいくと考えられるような人間であり続けることです。この状況を修復する力と機会をもつ人間がいれば、彼らはこれをよりよくし、全てを平和的に行うことができるでしょう。これが私たちにとって重要なことです。
したがって私は平和が必ず来ると信じます。そしてウクライナ人とロシア人が手を握り合い「私たちは平和を得る。全てを得る」と言えることを信じます。ご清聴ありがとうございました。

日本のコンテンツの倫理観は終わってるんで。せめて下記のような評価の指針を持ってからにしよう
Positive message や Positive Role Model という概念
例えばポケモン ↓
Parents need to know that the long-running Pokémon series is based on characters from a popular video game, and is part of a giant licensing juggernaut. The Pokémon are kid-appealing, but the series features lots of fantasy violence, and pits the cute, monster-like characters against each other on behalf of their trainers. There are some positive messages (teamwork, sportsmanship, respecting elders), but it may be too intense for younger children.
Over the years, the energetic, imagination-filled, Japanese-inspired fantasy series has cut across cultural, gender, and age barriers to captivate a global audience of girls, boys, and even adults. But like any product that inspires obsessions, it has received its share of criticism. Folks may also find the franchise's massive commercial appeal disturbing, especially since the show is mainly geared towards kids.
The whole concept of human characters summoning subordinates to battle on their behalf may be troubling to some. This can potentially send iffy messages to children with pets, too. But despite the endless fantasy violence, Pokémon attempts to promote messages about choosing the right path in life and resolving differences peacefully--before the fighting starts.
Families can talk about the popularity of Pokémon in the United States. Why do people of all ages find it appealing? What are the most popular Pokémon? Why?
What are the differences between Pokémon and real-life pets. How do Ash and his friends care for their Pokémon? How do we care for pets differently? Why are the Pokémon loyal to them and fight on their behalf? How about Team Rocket? Can we ever expect animals to fight on our behalf?
