RIAP Writes The Anime Conspiracy






—by David Ho

Help me! You must help me! I've been hiding from them. Those clean men from the hospital with their endless hypodermic needles and their evil mind games. You will listen to me, won't you? You will believe me, won' t you? I see that you're a fellow anime fan, just as I! That means you have to believe me! The clean men say I'm insane, but you and I share the same insanity, don't we? Please, don't leave me! Just listen to what I have to say...
  Please, move closer... I don't want to speak too loudly in case anyone is listening... I know stuff that's so secret that if I told you what I know, they'd kill you for sure. It's true! What I'm going to tell you will undoubtedly shock and dumbfound you. It's a bigger enigma than JFK. Bigger than Elvis. Even bigger than X-FILES (which is fictional). I call it "The Anime Conspiracy".
  Despite what you have been told, I have proof that anime does not come from Japan. In fact, it comes from outer space! Yes, it is made by aliens flying around in their UFO's and then it is deposited here to infect our impressionable youth. But most sinister of all are the aliens' real goal, which is so horrific that if I told you right now what it is, you wouldn't believe it!
  Wait... that look on your face! I know that look! I know what you're thinking. You're thinking the same thing that the clean men at the hospital were thinking! I'm not paranoid! I know this to be true! Anime is made by aliens from another world! If you don't believe me, consider this eerie evidence:


• 
You know the pyramids in Egypt? How did ancient man ever build such massive structures using only primitive tools and technologies? They must have had help! Other worldly help for that matter. It is the only plausible explanation: Aliens must have helped the ancient Egyptians do what modern man could not do with all the money in the Middle East! Now consider a massive anime such as "GHOST IN THE SHELL". How did they make it for so little? If GITS was made here in the U.S., it would have cost as much as Titanic! And year after year, anime keeps appearing and it seems to get better and better all the while budgets keep shrinking and shrinking. How can they do it? Ah ha! The answer is that they don't do it. Aliens do it!

• 

Have you ever noticed that all the really popular anime seem to have aliens in them? Didn't it ever strike you as strange that EVA, TENCHI MUYO and even SAILOR MOON all deal with other worldly beings and events? Is it a mere coincidence? How can you explain it when this "coincidence" keeps happening over and over and over again? Is it a conscious decision by the creative minds of the Japanese? Or is it something more nefarious? Something more... like aliens!

• 

Not only other worldly beings, but other worldly powers as well! Even when the characters seem to be from planet Earth, they almost always possess supernatural powers. Powers such as telepathy, telekinesis, ESP, precognition, clairvoyance or superhuman strength. Are these stories really about human beings? Or! Are they really about ALIENS with superpowers living among us??!! Think about it!
