Welp, they are changing it in the volume release

Oof, damn

Guess it really rubbed ppl the wrong way

Hori posted a tweet too

It's...not fun

He said he was changing it because he didn't know of it

Now people are demanding he has to apologize

The whole thread is ridiculous

People making it sound like hori did it on purpose and now he has to apologize or else he supports those experimentations

Worst part is, that word is a pun he was using

Which he has done throughout the whole series

But because it had another meaning that he didn't know of, he's suddenly an asshole

When you start that Monday just right

Petitions don't do anything

Good point

Amber herd...i hate that i recognize that name.

Also, i needed to look up context on the "maruta" thing....jesus christ, that was not a fun read

Petitions are stupid

What are they gonna do see like 2000 people signed it and be like, " well guys they got us beat remove her from the sequel"

They got 90k here which is a lot

But still, this won't do much

Change.org petitions are like trying to stop the flow of water using a pair of scissors

Well, if you cut the water it won't flow right

I suppose?

But like its been said, sorry to burt the optimism, but i do want amber herd to face the music, but petitions dont solve anything

Noise doesnt gurantee a reponse, however

i mean amber costed johnny depp roles and money by saying he abuse her and a studios backed her without evidence that he didnt. and bam when the audio tapes leaked she admitted to abusing him. no studios are gonna recast her roles because it would mean them admitting they were dead wrong for backing her. she has a history of abusing all her exes ans were arrested for it twice. and put one in the hospitial.

But so far, she really hasnt faced any consequencss iirc

Yeah, I saw it

Read the comments on horis tweet

Ridiculous

I don't mind it either, I am talking about the people throwing a hissy fit about Hori not apologizing

Ah, the good old "apologise for actions that took place almost a csntury before you were born" trope

Or decades

> call him a WW2 apologist
That one annoys me the most

Nah, it's more like making a nazi called Anne Frank in fiction

The issue is that the name Maruta is associated with the victims more than the experiment

So making a Japanese evil guy named Maruta comes off as offensive

But I highly doubt Hori meant it that way, because Maruta has another meaning which is "log"

A pun similar to Deku's own name

Anyways, the name is gonna change and anyone begging Hori for an apology can just stop reading the series

I mean i guess its not worth making mt everest out of a pebble, if he wants to change the name, he can.

He's doing it, it's officially out

The volume release will most likely change it

I actually did look up the historical content of the maruta experiments. ..i think i understand why some folks were upset
