Rockstar brilliantly makes fun of anime.

Post by J T »

There is something in the new Ballad of Gay Tony called "Princess Robot Bubblegum" that is a hilarious commercial making fun of anime. You've gotta see the video. :lol:

I've watched this several times now and I love the subtle details.

When she's in bed with the tentacled plant, she is reading a book called "Restoring Honor for Idiots"

There is a quick scene where she transforms from a used-panties vending machine into a robot wearing panties with a panties symbol on its forehead. A fat American tourist with a fannypack runs away screaming.

She launches missiles from her breasts.

There are removed eyeballs on the table where the little kid is excited for the flambe.

The movie billboard is for a movie called Gorilla u$$y.

The fact the TV station was CNT was a bit much though.

Was just reading through the comments on Kotaku and I have to agree with one of the commenters there that this reminds me strongly of All Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku.

Here's a clip of it for comparison:

It would be the bitterest of irony if this actually was made into a series. :lol:

Haha, Japan is one step ahead again. I even recalled Dexter's scene in which he headbutts Doakes. Japan owns you, Rockstar.

(Yeah, I had a laugh with the video.)
