If you’re in the mood to watch cute little animals blast the fuck out of each other with high caliber weaponry and execute mental anguish so brutal that it’s on par with human acts of war, then you’re ready to watch that trailer for CAT SHIT ONE. Please note by our blatant cursing, this trailer is most likely NSFW. Unless you happen to work in a munitions factory, then tell the boss that you’re doing research into your product’s future uses.<\/p>\n

A translation of the trailer above lay a ways below this cut.
\n
\nAs follows with some of the more brilliant anime, CAT SHIT ONE is replete with symbolism at every turn.<\/p>\n

Characters are depicted as different species<\/a> according to nationality; Yankees as rabbits, the Vietnamese as cats, Frenchmen as pigs, Koreans as dogs, Australians as koala bears, etc.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Why is the glory of our great nation of the USA depicted as rabbits? Well:<\/p>\n

The depiction of Americans as rabbits is actually a pun on the Japanese word for rabbit. The Japanese word for rabbit is “???,” which can be romanized as “USAGI.” USA + GI = USAGI<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Don’t make us spell that out for you<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We will not mince words. This is serious WTF territory we’re entering. ROFL-copters will buzz you at inopportune moments. LOL-canoes will erupt over strange sequences. OMGs will be shouted during the gory bits. Yet we’ve made alerts to keep an eye out for this one in 2010.<\/p>\n

Translation<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\n“Wait, Packy! You said do that by only ourselves?”<\/p>\n

\n“If we do not do, those two will be killed!”
\n“I’ll send you a sign by radio transmission, shot from here.”
\n“I move closer them by way of side-on.”
\n“No problem. We can do. ”<\/p>\n

\n“My gun is quite usefull, right?”<\/p>\n

\n“If You stay here for fight together, it cause only increase risk. don’t have to return.”<\/p>\n

\n“If you stay, it brings nothing but risks. u don’t have to come back. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
