Is Legend of the White Minority based off a fairly anime-ish cartoon series?

The comic was great, but Anxious Masculinity 3 practically had me freaking dying.

"This car is basically my penis."
Oh man, did that get me. I've wanted to shout that at so many action-packed flicks.
It's amazing how much better you can feel about being a social shut-in obsessed with an international sub-culture when you see the grade-A crap that's being vomited outta Hollywood sometimes. |

I think - and I am probably wrong here - but I think it is supposed to be a critique of the live-action Avatar the Last Airbender.
Anxious Masculinity 3 was my favourite too.
Great to see you're back Robin. |

Haha, too accurate.
Glad to have you back with a new strip, although I did also enjoy the commentary on older strips. <3 |

| Now Keonyn knows why I hate Hollywood. But I still wanna see The Expendables, at least, even if it probably falls under that penis-car joke. And I wonder if we'll be seeing any Scott Pilgrim parodies in a future strip. |

That and nearly every other movie set in Asia that Hollywood has ever made... |

| I'm going to hop on the Inception bandwagon, and also add that this was extremely quality |

Yup... That's how I feel about movies sometimes (although I do like explosions... lol). Good thing anime is always there for us, huh??
Great to have you back Robin...  |

Oh yes, overplayed parodies for the sake of comedy in a weekly comedy strip is truly the most obvious example of reality for us to understand your bias against something. Hey, I saw a minority play a gangster on "Law and Order" the other night, I think that justifies racism too doesn't it? We know why you hate it, even if you've convinced yourself otherwise. Regardless, you're again trying to turn a thread in to something else and use it to soapbox yet again, so knock it off because I'm getting tired of telling you this.
