the word jap itself is not racist. just an abbreviation of japanese. i agree. but his act is apparently racist.
if you cut the context in which the words were used, all the words being regarded as derogatory are not racist.
for example, the word gaijin itself is not racist. its just short version of gaikokujin as you know. but it would be racist depending on the context.
the comment boxes are full of silly bitches who even dont understand such an easy thing.

Despite being a fan of WikiPee in general that particular Wiki article looks like apologetic rubbish. I was almost chanting Fee Fi Fo Fum as I read it. The instances they cite are plainly a racist use at a time when it simply didn't matter if it was, which isn't the same as it not being so. Again, blithe plebian cretinism is not a justification of a given argument.

I don't think they were trying to be racist but once they realized it sounded bad the preferred term became Japanimation. Plus Japanimation rolls off the tongue a little more easily. Though I guess it could still sound racist depending when you put the emphasis.
