BTW the aliens obviously represent Africans much like orks in Tolkien's works
they twist the media narrative to create crises and make themselves look good
they come and take high-level managerial positions
they smell
they never apologize
they have no concept of personal space

So an indian, american, and jew walk into a bar...

On the one hand the actual quality is kinda mediocre, even if it's only the first chapter.

On the other hand, why is it always a japanese woman with an alien man

Maybe it's just me but compared to the first chapter of Gintama, the narration here is less subtle, due to Shinpachi (straight man) being the narrator, while in Drama Queen the roles are not that clear yet.

Holy shit they didn't butcher the 2 page spread. Truly Manga Plus has entered into a new golden age.

How can you call it xenophobic when they have a legitimate reason to hate them? An alien killed his family and got off scot-free, its entirely reasonable for him to hate them. I like a based manga as much as the next guy, but so far this all seems pretty tame and not really worth a fuss over yet.

Just because their opinions are different doesn't mean they are westerners.
“If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck”.

Only Westerners would throw around words like "fascist", "bigot", "racist", "xenophobic", "oppressed", etc like they're nothing. Also, if someone's interpretation of the first chapter is that of "anti-immigration", then there's a big-fat chance they're a Western Liberal.

I love racist, xenophobic, manga thats actually about white people (more specifically disrespectful American colonialism attitudes after WW2) and I’m tired of pretending otherwise

Since @Angry_Panda asked for... at first I was surprised this shonen wasn't about human farming and rapey-rape, so I put it on the "generic trash manga" skip but at the end I saw some squid/meat eating so I guess this won't be pure edginess? It was boring nevertheless so it won't change my mind, eww, it's shonen manga after all.
