Yet another controversy in Japan. A new poster for the series Love Live, teaching how to wash your hands, has received many complaints due to a bizarre factor.

The official profile of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare of Japan released an image in collaboration with the anime Love Live teaching the correct way to wash your hands.

Love Live: Handwashing poster receives strong criticism

The image is nothing special and uses an anime to teach the audience something, but not to some people. Check out some comments:

"Why do you have to use images of female anime students? Is the Ministry of Health a DEN of PEDOPHILIA?"

“Washing your hands is important, but why a schoolgirl in the ad?”

“Okay, it’s an anime character. But the MINISTRY OF THE COUNTRY using her?”

“It is not possible that we are being insinuated into pedophilia by our own ministry”

Love Live

The controversy didn't stop there and continues to generate some comments to this day.

That's it, folks. What did you think of this "mess" ? Only the Japanese, right? Haha! Leave your comment.
