The world of Japanese animation is not always frowned upon, and more than once the medium has been accused of immorality. This time it was my turn Goblin Slayer caught in the eye of the storm in the face of a controversy sparked by a US politician.

A little over a year ago, a politician’s threat against an American university caused a stir following recent events in Australia. Anyway, Matt ShaheenMember of the Texas House of Representatives since 2015, described the work as “obscene“And that it should be banned from schools.

The politician described Goblin Slayer as “Drawings of women being raped by demons“, then confirm that”Anyone who thinks this is acceptable is mentally ill. We’re going to hunt down the vendors that sold this junk to the kids in Texas“. Shaheen also explained that while it’s not clear whether it references the manga or the original novel, the series represents all those qualities that the Texas Penal Code Sentence: “Apparently lewd depictions or descriptions of normal or perverse, actual or simulated, sexual activity, including intercourse, bestiality and sexual sodomy“.
