i think thats really cool that the boondocks is over there i would of never guess that it was over there, but as an african american ,I hope that the japanese don't really look at us that way all americans in general. Though, lets hope they also get the acutal comic of the boondocks too...

Out of curiosity, are you fluent in Japanese? The show is dubbed into Japanese.

I couldn't see them getting the comic. Anyway, I still couldn't see this show being helpful of their understanding of blacks in America. I know I sound like a skeptic, but the show is satire. It's exaggerating the problems associated with black America. I could see the show giving off the impression that this is how blacks act in America, especially if season 2 is shipped over there since it was Riley-focused.

Yeah, I think that the Japanese will think, like,
that's a serious view of how black people are
and stuff.
And then they'll try acting that way
and talking that way...

I just wanna see this dubbed...XDD

The Boondocks - 08-05-2008, 01:21 PM

Is anyone a fan of The Boondocks?
I recently started watching it and think it's decent. Wondered if it was very popular in Japan.
(Which I'll go out on a limb and say no?)

Well my point in this thread was to see how many people actually watched it on a regular basis and how many members were fans.
I was just curious if it was popular in Japan because I figured it wasn't.
Thank you for answering my question I guess.
