It's hard for me to understand why anyone would be insulted by things like that. I mean, it's not like they have good portrayals of Americans or English people in what they make (from what I've seen).
In fact, I usually find their portrayals humorous. And the stereotypes are just hilarious. Even in dramas,if they have an English speaker, he is still forced to speak in a very unnatural English (although obviously is a native English speaker from the accent).
I've fortunately have never met any Japanese face-to-face (I have online) with such qualms as having their culture misrepresented or just innaccurately represented. They have much the same humor as I have about it.
