But recently, an anime has been caught in the middle of a suspected China-shaming incident, in which the characters appear to have squinting eyes and dangling corners of their eyes. This is because the anime is made in China, so it has raised a lot of questions.

Lion Boy

And for this incident CCTV also commented, said to increase the national self-confidence, not all squinting is considered to be insulting.

Animation reputation is polarized

After the broadcast of the lion boy, through the network of the discussion of the anime can be seen, the anime reputation polarization is quite serious. Part of the people think that as a domestic anime, the lion boy in the picture is very delicate, and the plot is also very good. However, the other part of the population rejected the anime, thinking that the domestic anime not only did not grow, but also added elements that were suspected of being insulting to China, so it was boycotted by this part of the population.

Why is it so polarized?

In fact, the reason why the polarization is very serious, the biggest argument appears in the squinting eyes of the image. People who have watched this anime should know that compared to previous Chinese anime, this Chinese anime is considered a work of conscience.
