    I sometimes think they do it on purpose.

    Okay look, we finally released this thing overseas, aren’t you guys happy and want to buy it?

    Looks inside: $180 USD figurine of Shinji Ikari, in his normal school clothes

    I am literally never gonna overpay for that

    See look, the people overseas don’t buy our stuff, so let’s just stop caring about them.

    It has to be intentional at this point. Imagine if the Japanese people didn’t automatically side with big businesses because of their society and heard the prices we had to pay for the stuff they get at like, a quarter of the price.
