you don't like omocats work?
they are a good artist, HOWEVER, they don’t seem to be good person. here is why, with a few links n such
they put japanese aesthetic and words everywhere all over their merchandise. they’re not japanese and can’t speak it but insist on capitalizing on the culture and language
they put “shota” (shota is a shortened form of “shotacon” which means porn of small boys) all over everything, and when confronted about it said this.only after receiving massive negative feedback, did they “apologize” (probably cus they felt obligated to)
when asked about capitalizing on japanese culture, they apparently said that “it’s okay because i’m chinese” (i know they said this but i can’t find it, maybe they deleted it?)
they made this (lol)
omocat is endorsed by people who wish they weren’t white and wish they were japanese (seriously their entire tag is white kids wearing japanese aesthetic stuff)its one thing to know japanese and be respectful of the culture while using it in your work, but another to just use the aesthetic for profit….
