The Possible Disturbing Dissonance Between Hajime Isayama’s Beliefs and Attack on Titan’s Themes

The popular manga Attack on Titan tells of how war is awful all around and how secrets skew perceptions, so how can its author buy into the censorship of Japan’s war crimes in World War II to consider imperialism something beneficial?

Hajime Isayama, the 27 year old author of Attack on Titan, apparently expressed these beliefs in June on his private Twitter account @migiteorerno. June was also when South Koreans (some fans of the manga and anime, some not?) discovered a post on Isayama’s official blog from 2010 where he said the character Dot Pixis was based on historical figure Yoshifuru Akiyama, who Isayama called frugal and respectable. Because Akiyama was a general of the Imperial Japanese Army who contributed to the colonization of Korea and the commander of the army stationed in Korea under Japanese occupation, Koreans commented on the post in disgust and anger that Isayama would admire someone considered a war criminal, going as far as death treats.

This outrage should come as no surprise knowing the history between Japan and Korea, but that is exactly what most Japanese people aren’t aware of. Korea was occupied by Japan from 1910 to 1945, only one of the East Asian nations colonized by Japan as part of its growing imperial presence. During that time, the Japanese army enforced changing Korean names to Japanese style, destroyed and stole Korean cultural artifacts and locations, murdered the Korean empress, forced Korean men into hazardous war efforts, forced Korean women into sexual slavery for Japanese soldiers, and tortured and massacred and experimented on innocent Koreans. However, history textbooks and classes in Japan gloss over if not outright ignore these events. More focus is on before the 20th century in school, but even outside school there are civilians as well as politicians who deny the war crimes and respect war criminals. If @migiteorerno is indeed Hajime Isayama, he would seem to be one of these people.

Togashi is supposedly coming out of the dungeon, and making a return soon.

I'll believe it when i see it.

Story: HxH started way back in 1998, and back then Togashi put something like this in the author comments, the exact words weren't translated.

"I was coming out the back of a building after work, and some woman saw me and ran away. Idiot, as if I would want to ? you."

Hey, it could be worse. It could be the writer of Berserk. At least HxH is nearing something that could be turned into a final arc. Berserk is just...let's just say that ? will probably never be finished.

Word, but to be fare, the reason Miura's work takes so long to come out is because he is obsessive about the quality of his artwork, he might even care about that more than he does the story, and he contracted some illness that he currently is recovering from. As for Togashi, he doesn't have an illness or anything, he just goes on hiatus because he doesn't have to work, and he doesn't want to, and he puts out terrible scratch artwork pretty often.

This



compared to...well...



^ and it gets worse than that.
