Why would we nuke Japan for makimg something this good?

EDIT: The game was made by Americans, so you should be asking Russia.

Panzermadels is made by 'DEVGRU-P' a small team of American developers in the style of a traditional Japanese Visual Novel.

Russia's busy at the moment, though. (http://youtu.be/Yx03zTvL4K0)

That's why I like Japan.
Here you wear a fedora and people can't stop poking their noses into your business.
There you dress as a pokemon and no one bats an eye.
We lack a lot of freedom from being judged.

[Oberon]

Yup, sorry folks, but we're going to have to get Japan to nuke America for this one.

Indeed! And quite possible, all this is do to the fact they were nuke by America! They were not like that before...

The destruction of 2 cities spared the rest and the civilian population was exposed to the American culture without a bloody occupation.

You are right about that.

Perhaps it's the radiation, or perhaps the entire country decided that life is short, so do crazy things whenever possible!

Well, Ukraine had Chernobyl, and they didn't start making tank-dating games, so I go with theory 2 :)

[Torplexed]

The Japanese animator Osamu Tezuka, (Astroboy, Kimba the White Lion) often considered the grand daddy of anime drew on inspiration from Disney and Fleischer.

For manga and anime fans, Tezuka's biggest contribution came in the design of his characters. The artist needed a vast emotional template to tell his often complex stories. Seeking inspiration, he returned to the pre-war Disney cartoons that he loved as a child. Just like Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, Tezuka's animal and humans characters sported round heads with huge, expressive eyes. Although these features appeared simple and cartoonish, they actually allowed a character to express a wide range of emotions, from adulation to seething hatred.

His style had a huge influence on subsequent Japanese artists, so maybe America as an cultural influence is to blame.

I blame Commodore Perry myself. :D

Found some information on the Das Boot anime drawing; the artist is Saijou Takumi (I'm not very conversant on anime, so maybe someone else, maybe Torplex, knows more) and it seems to have been a one-off since the image was the only one and does not appear to have been part of a manga or anime:

Also, the game costs $10 USD, with at least 66 buyers (based on the number of reviews) so the devs have made at least $660 USD, which depending on your point of view, is either sad and insane, or hilarious and insane :haha:

Looks like an attempt to get on the Kancolle bandwagon, we'll see how well it does, they've already made their original kickstarter goal, so that's good...pity that they probably won't make the $75k goal, those mascots look cute.
