Obvious Shintaro Ishihara quote of the week:
“I hate Mickey Mouse,” Ishihara said. “He has nothing like the unique sensibility that Japan has. The Japanese are inherently skilled at visual expression and detailed work.”
Obviously, this is a guy who’s never seen what American high school otaku can do.

Anyway, who could hate Mickey? I mean Disneyland is a wonderland of supreme lameness, but at least he’s entertaining the kids. Talk about a sourpuss!
