It is not exactly hard to believe.

Anime is a business after all.

Do you unironically believe this?


Who? What? And then?

Jokes aside, basically: I went through your link, and I understand but please elaborate. What's your reading of it? Who's the "you" who believes that reading or not?
And while you imply that you do not agree, is that true, you don't? If you do, why? If you don't, why?

I still find it hilarious how Ken Akamatsu ran for office on a platform to prevent this, only to find out that the party he joined would probably prefer to just outright ban anime instead.
Sometimes it seems like not even a lot of Japanese fans understand how other Japanese people perceive this particular hobby.

Hee-Ho doesn't really do a good job conveying the topic title at times. He should've started with something like "Disney japan exec says anime tones itself down to appeal to westeners".

No offense, Hee-Ho.

A simple title is enough since it's Disney, it's already a dead giveaway.

No it isn't. "Disney japan exec" can mean literally anything. Like "Disney japan exec buys some pet goldfish"

Disney already has the reputation for being horrible anyway.
And I'm lazy.
