Would you be comfortable if someone who was not Japanese wrote this? The invasion affected the entire world, and I don't recall anything Korean related being mentioned in the manga.
This is clearly an allegory about foreigner immigration to Japan. "alien" is either referring to Koreans or Americans. Either way it's hypocritical and dumb.

The reaction to series like this is just more proof that anime/manga and Japanese media in general becoming more popular globally was a mistake. A really, really big mistake.

At first it felt like Reiwa Gintama but then it somehow became a Call of the Night expy instead?

BTW the aliens obviously represent Africans much like orks in Tolkien's works
no you are wrong on that, while Tolkien doesn't talk much about where the inspiration of orcs came from the most that he has led to was eastern especially mongolic and turkic people like tartars.

Unrealistic.

The alien should've been caught for the crime, but pardoned or given extremely lenient sentencing whereas anybody who complained about it was slapped with jail time or a huge fine much, much larger than what the alien got.

Bonus points if the judge proceeds to compliment the alien for their driving having improved since they first got there.

:huh:

Hey now, basic pattern recognition is hella racist. Implying consequences that happened repeatedly in the near past will continue to happen in the future is socially unacceptable. You better lobotomize yourself like the rest of us if you want to fit in. Here, let me help you start. Repeat after me: Every single bad thing that happens because of my beliefs is an isolated incident, and no amount of isolated incidents can represent a broader pattern. It doesn't matter if it happens 99% of the time because that 1% of the time where it didn't happen PROVES that it's not true.
You have to be brainwashed by your political beliefs to seriously think like that. I'm sorry for you.

I'm interested to see where this goes, it's not often we get shonen protags who are morally dubious (they're still committing crimes at the end of the day). Like people have already said, this seems more about colonialism than immigration in general. Clear indicator is that immigrants aren't exactly societal elites like the aliens are represented here.
But hey I'm not from the west nor do I live in a country that deals with immigration on a large scale, so I don't lean too strongly for or against it.

Says something stupid
Someone responds
'You fell for bait dude it's bait'
Holy fucking shit you're not real
I'd normally agree, except the same guy said he was going to troll before immediately responding to his own message with a dumb take.
