The man denounces Lord of the Rings, and western culture in general:
(I am), anti-jeans, anti-bourbon, anti-burgers, anti-fried chicken, anti-cola, anti-American coffee, and anti-New York, anti-West Coast, Disneyland go back to America!
He’s known to feel disdain for people who embrace modern technology. He’s said people using touch-screens look like they are making “strange masturbation-like gestures”.
He’s admitted to getting “fed up” with seeing people read manga in public, even before smartphones existed.
The man seems incapable of giving constructive criticism, or just generally being pleasant. When commenting on the passing of Osamu Tezuka, the creator of Astro Boy and a formative figure for manga in general, he said:
I’m assuming there will be a loud chorus of other people mourning his passing, and I do not intend to add my voice to it.
He’s a genius. And obviously has profound thoughts and ideas about the world as the plot-lines of his movies illustrate.
But he also has a hateful streak which he doesn’t seem to even try controlling.

That’s horrible!

No, he ain’t right. This guy denounced katsu chicken. One of the best Japanese dishes. Sure, it’s only been around for 100 years, so it isn’t traditional, but it’s still great.
I know.
But that ain’t how you mentor someone.
And it’s not just his son.

It actually sounds like he and Tolkein would get on really well
Honestly yeah
I mean the sheer brutality of his comments is something to behold…like, maximally insulting with very few words. Speaks to his genius in a weird way.
That’s horrible!
No, he’s right apart from Lord of the Rings.
