Kaiketsu Zubat Episode 6 Reactions
In an otherwise fun and good series, I had a feeling a show based off of American Westerns in the 1970s would have some cringeworthy portrayal of Native Americans, and I was right. This episode, while building on some of the connection Tojo and Hayakawa have, also features the character Red Boar who is a deeply racist portrayal of an Indigenous man (played of course by a Japanese actor in makeup) with an imitation of a war bonnet and dressed in pelts while carrying spears. He speaks in a way that shows he is barely capable of language and is worshipping the ground Hayakawa steps on basically. Would advise skipping it honestly as it's a whole cringe fest and not worth it, as there are far better episodes depicting Hayakawa's bonds with Tojo that we get later without the racism. In my opinion this is the lowest point of the series.
