G Gundam is a show aimed at kids of the age group impressionable enough to
buy toys based on what they see on TV.

V
Kids in Japan identify different countries by their most well-known landscape
and stereotypes.
|
V
If you get too sophisticated and try to avoid well-known "country identifiers"
then you risk losing your audience who will find it impossible to make sense
of what is going on or who everyone is.
|
V
No one will sponsor your show if there is too much risk associated with it.
|
V
No sponsor, no show to put on the air.
|
V
No show, no job, you starve.
Comprendi?
