[KochiKame] Was there also a discussion about the rice stockpiling policy…?

Otaku Review Image

Alright, let’s bet 20,000 yen! Oh, I agree! Stop it, you guys! Ah, hey! Ahhhh!! Those guys have started fighting! Huh!? It’s Tobita! Yabunaka and the others are being idiots and acting tough. These fools are reversing the situation with the Kiyama faction B. What? The failure of the detention is equivalent to a punishment. In the first place, being in Japan is a mistake. Isn’t it frustrating to keep losing to those guys? That’s right, that’s right! Why did this idiot bring me here?

2: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)19:50Yeahx4

I like it when there are clear expressions of thought regarding politics like this every now and then.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:41

>>2It’s been a while since I saw a fool who only picks out a part of the work to talk about the author’s thoughts.

3: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)19:53Yeahx2

It’s irresistible for those who love satire… I feel the same way.

4: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)19:53Yeahx1

I prefer future predictions over satire.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)19:56

I like that the police station’s window is broken in a loud voice.

6: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)19:56Yeahx7

In the old Kochikame, the emergence of 〇〇 was predicted! It’s amazing foresight! But…
Honestly, I think if there are 200 volumes’ worth of stories, something that fits will come up.
It’s something similar to Nostradamus’ great predictions.

10: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:17Yeahx9

>>6Well, that’s true, but the thread’s image is based on actual events, right?

11: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:18

>>10Well, yeah.
This is a response to that…

20: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:22Yeahx5

>>11I thought there were some people who mistakenly believed that the rice shortage of the 90s foresaw the recent spike in rice prices.
I’m sorry.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:07

Funny Poison Uncle

8: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:13Yeahx6

It is not satire.

9: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:16

I often get unreasonably scolded as a representative just because I’m a public servant.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:19Yeahx3

Then just say that, it’s so troublesome.

13: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:20Yeahx9

I have quite a few thoughts regarding the rice riot of the Heisei era.
You’ve made a few stories about it, haven’t you, Akimoto-sensei?

46: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:45

>>13I like that it doesn’t just end with blaming the government and the bad companies.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:20Yeahx2

Even if I say it, demand is decreasing, so we can’t just keep oversupplying without reducing supply.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:20

If you just read it normally, you would understand that the image in the thread is based on the circumstances of the time rather than a prophecy.
If you went out of your way to reply yourself, there’s no such thing as trouble or anything.

16: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:21

Damn it.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:21Yeahx2

It’s not satire; it’s a direct criticism.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:30

>>17If it’s being sent out as Akimoto Osamu, that’s one thing, but if the character is being used, isn’t it leaning towards satire?
Well, either way is fine…

18: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:22Yeahx5

Despite being lacking in words, you have more complaints than others.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:22

The thread image is good because it’s satire or a current events topic.
I think it’s not good to cut out the part of the joke that establishes itself as a gag by being pointed out by Ryo-san or Nakagawa and label it as a valid argument!
You should read Kochikame properly.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:31Yeahx2

>>19Otaku tend to take the random fallacies that Ryotsu spouts out of annoyance and elevate them as if they were logical arguments.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:36Yeahx2

>>25The part about Masashi in volume 42 is still often referenced.
Both Ryotsu and the manager are clearly conveying their desire to push troublesome matters onto someone else.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:23Yeahx1

In other words, is it identity theft… Which is more troublesome?

22: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:24

The country is at fault for the thread unnecessarily getting out of hand!

24: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:31

In the early days, there were strong anti-smoking sentiments and a deep dislike for Kabukicho.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:32

Isn’t it ironic that the ones who say things like this get angry at those who have nothing to do with it?

27: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:33

For now, I think I’ll delete it.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:39Yeahx2

>>27Which one?

28: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:35

The episode about how hot and crazy Tokyo was in the early 2000s.
It’s drawn as a gag based on the heat island phenomenon that was a hot topic at the time.
It feels like it’s no longer a joke.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:36Yeahx1

Ignoring the fact that demand is decreasing in the first place.
Consumers are fickle; they only target things when there’s a commotion.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:45Yeahx1

>>30I really think that’s true.
There were a lot of people saying things like “I’m gaining weight, I don’t need rice.”
You realize its importance only after humans are gone.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:37

“Go hit your head on the concrete and die.”

32: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:37

The issue this time is that there is enough supply to meet the demand, but for some reason, it is not being distributed.
Reduction in rice production has nothing to do with it, really…

42: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:43Yeahx2

>>32It is in circulation.
It’s sold at any supermarket.
At twice the price of last year.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:45

>>32It’s just that various places, including individuals, are securing a bit more inventory than usual, which is why it’s running short.

34: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:39

Back then, during the rice shortage, Ryotsu brought rice because he thought the elderly were in trouble.
It’s a situation where I get a response like, “I don’t eat that much, and it’s not like I’m in trouble without rice.”

36: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:39

>>34Unlike during the war, it feels like there are other things to eat now.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:43

>>36Japan is becoming poorer now, so it’s tough because we can’t just eat something else…

35: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:39Yeahx1

The issue of rice has been discussed continuously in post-war Japan, so there’s no point in making predictions.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:41Yeahx1

Until a little while ago, it was treated as the root of obesity and diabetes.
It’s selfish.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:41

After this, the department head will say something like “the blended rice is a bit…” which will also cause the stock to drop.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:45Yeahx1

>>38The leftover blended rice eventually leads to moonshine, making it a backstory to the episode where beer is poured on the ground.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:42

The public opinion was like this during the rice shortage 30 years ago, and it was also mocked in comics.
Even in the Reiwa era, we are facing a rice shortage and I am reminded that nothing changes across the ages.

43: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:45

The episode where it is revealed that the department head, who complained about wanting to eat Japanese food during a trip to Europe several volumes ago, ended up eating Australian rice at a Japanese restaurant.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:47

Rather than satire, it was just that the issues surrounding the rice acreage reduction policy were a hot topic in this era, so I made it a subject.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/29(Thu)20:49

It’s a difficult situation because, while actual demand continues to decline, it is also a waste to maintain production levels, and the necessity to reduce cultivated land cannot be avoided.
