Damn, this is crazy/insane.

Japan isn't messing around anymore.

Nico Nico Choka Iki 2026 - instead of Japan's usual strategy, **Ono Daki Kimi** dropped this absolutely massive statement:

**"Shut up, this is Japan!"**

She made it clear: the Japanese government will protect anime, manga, and Japanese creators from foreign pressure and demands to change their works.
