CATDOLL: The male protagonist of "Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans" was complained about for killing people without blinking an eye

The October animation "Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans" has been loved by many viewers since its launch. The male protagonist Mikazuki is also considered by fans to be the least talkative one in the history of Gundam. He is very capable in all aspects, including killing... However, this animation is broadcast in prime time, so recently Japan's BPO, an organization similar to the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, directly criticized the male protagonist of "Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans" for killing without blinking an eye when commenting on the October TV programs.

In fact, the scene where the male protagonist shoots and kills people is from the third episode of "Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans". When the enemy was driving an MS to challenge Mikazuki, Mikazuki defeated the enemy MS with super high driving skills and unheard-of fighting methods. The opponent's driver opened the cockpit and said a few words to Mikazuki, and asked Mikazuki to kill him. Mikazuki shot and killed the uncle with a calm face... After this episode was broadcast, many netizens discussed the male protagonist's killing without blinking an eye on the Internet, and worried that the animation would be complained, but he still couldn't escape.

BPO (Broadcast Ethics and Program Improvement Organization) believes that "Even if the content of the animation in the prime time in the evening is easily associated with murder and kidnapping, it will not be suspended. Is this the so-called double standard of freedom of expression? In the time period when children watch TV, the protagonist shoots the unresisting prisoners. Seeing the title of this animation, you can understand that many children watch this animation. I hope that this animation can set an age limit for broadcasting." Although BPO did not specify which animation it was, as long as you have watched it, you should know that it refers to "Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans". The most important thing is that this work is broadcast on Sunday evening, which is definitely a prime time. It is indeed a bit bad to have such a plot. However, this work is obviously not made for children, but for older audiences. It can only be said that the broadcast time period is indeed a bit inconsistent. Although BPO has similar criticisms and complaints every month, they are generally reminders. In short, I hope that "Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans" will not be affected.
