This isn't like the tsunami or even the subway gas attacks in the 90s -- those things effected everyone. I doubt the murder of a former politician is going to enter a child's consciousness in any meaningful way. Maybe if it was the current Prime Minister, but even then...

I could be wrong, but that's my suspicion.

I agree.

I want to clarify since I think there's been some confusion over my intent with bringing this up maybe? I only brought it up again initially because I remember other people had been concerned this would mess with the tone a couple weeks back and this seemed like a sign it hadn't changed the tone, at the time my opinion was also "kids won't care so I doubt it will affect anything, but who knows"

I just think gun on poster is proof toei doesn't think it's an issue worth affecting the show in any major way
