Screenshot is from the latest episode of YuruYuri San Hai directed by Hiroyuki Hata. Yes, no PlayStation, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, or PlayStation 4. This probably doesn't actually mean anything BUT...

Someone from the Internet found the following tweets made by Hata sometimes ago:

(I try to translate as accurate as possible)

Tweet 1

-"PS4 using the BD media again. It looks like it's gonna be difficult grilling the meat."

Tweet 2

-"Well you see, I haven't switch on the PS3 for a while, so I start it up, updated to the latest firmware version, and the whole screen blackout after the reboot. I checked the official support on how to deal with it, tried to boot the PS3 into safe mode and nothing happened ＼(^o^)／"

Tweet 3

-"I never trusted s◯ny products from the beginning, I should've think further."

What do GAF think?

MatrixMan.EXE · Oct 28, 2015

You know the hate is strong when, as a Japanese person, he's even included an Xbox One in there.

Shun · Oct 28, 2015

I thought XBOX One was a myth.

Corpekata · Oct 28, 2015

Oh no.

Shiggy · Oct 28, 2015

He seems to feel about Sony consoles the way I feel about Windows 10 and Samsung smartphones, after having strongly negative experiences.

Portugeezer · Oct 28, 2015

Shuhei shits on him from a great height.

I don't know who this man is.

E_Darkness · Oct 28, 2015

Well there is an Xbox One there...

Kyoufu · Oct 28, 2015

Hata's gonna hate.

nckillthegrimace · Oct 28, 2015

He probably played Knack.

NormalFish · Oct 28, 2015

OR he doesn't like drawing them cause they're obnoxious and yet uninteresting shapes.

Wario64 · Oct 28, 2015

Cool of him...? People hate and like things

epmode · Oct 28, 2015

He clealy hasn't played TLOU. Naughty Gods, amirite?

Hayama Akito · Oct 28, 2015

Funny enough i remember Irem hates Nintendo so much, they mocked him in every april fools joke they had.

It doesn't make a lot of difference, does it? The guy is an anime director.

neurosyphilis · Oct 28, 2015

Ok ? People have preferences.

Andrefpvs · Oct 28, 2015

Does the anime have a character named Supensā-sama?

Khrae · Oct 28, 2015

None of those consoles are plugged in, he has the PS4 hooked up out of shot

BedBison · Oct 28, 2015

Oh shit some anime director doesn't like Sony call the president right now

patapuf · Oct 28, 2015

This is a moment where the console war is funny rather than annoying.

Xpliskin · Oct 28, 2015

There's an XboxOne in that picture.

Says enough.

Rymuth · Oct 28, 2015

Thought this thread was going to be about Sakaguchi

PdotMichael · Oct 28, 2015

Sony killed Sega after all!

Probably not the guy's preferred console which is totally fine.

This being the first reply to this thread is my favorite thing.

Freeman · Oct 28, 2015

Greatness isn't for everyone.

Dad · Oct 28, 2015

Let's form an Internet mob and destroy his life

BGBW · Oct 28, 2015

Yui just had really bad luck buying doomed systems.

(She had a "PS3" in the previous series which was under a different director)

benny_a · Oct 28, 2015

The Dreamcast had more than two controller ports. This is an outrage!

papertoonz · Oct 28, 2015

what the console on the top right? is a Phillips CD-I?

Dio · Oct 28, 2015

Console wars on Japanese boards are just as strong as in the West.

Sony fans are nicknamed "Cockroaches",

Nintendo fans are ninshin - 'pregnant' - from 'Nintendo shinsha' - nintendo devotee.

Xbox fans are chikan - 'molestor' -
When the Xbox first came out in Japan people lined up to buy it, and when a reporter asked one of them why he was buying the Xbox, he said he was going to play an adult game called 陵辱痴漢地獄 (Ryoujoku Chikan Jigoku, ~roughly Rapist Hell).

Newtype-001 · Oct 28, 2015

it must be true, i feel it in my sony bones.

holy shit

Shenmue · Oct 28, 2015

Are you sure that's not a joke because all of those consoles in that entertainment center are consoles that underperformed.

EDIT: Wait that's a Wii, not a Wii U.

Producer · Oct 28, 2015

i will definately not be watching yuruyuri anymore

Regiruler · Oct 28, 2015

I don't get why this is a thread

Not trying to threadshit, I just don't know what the intention is for posting this

Traumnovelle · Oct 28, 2015

Lol at the GameCube and Dreamcast only having 2 controller ports.

Oddish1 · Oct 28, 2015

I think the joke is that this person just has bad luck buying consoles.

Mikey Jr. · Oct 28, 2015

I am in legit shook right now.

Lord British · Oct 28, 2015

Akari is probably playing them.

Zalman · Oct 28, 2015

That GameCube doesn't even have the Game Boy Player, tsk.

Prelude. · Oct 28, 2015

I was surprised no one made a thread yet.
They were like that in the OVA that aired this summer too.

BY2K · Oct 28, 2015

Is that a goddamn CD-I on the top left?

Or maybe a 3D0...

Chariot · Oct 28, 2015

Hey, he also directed ImoCho which had this particular scene:

Complete with stealth section and codec call.

BGBW · Oct 28, 2015

papertoonz said:

"Panasonic 3DO"

ShockingAlberto · Oct 28, 2015

Did you know there might also be other people out there in the world who don't like systems too

I'm not saying there are

But there might be and I want you to be prepared mentally if you ever meet them

tim.mbp · Oct 28, 2015

Who notices these things?

Looks like a 3DO by shape, but a 3DO doesn't have a screen on the front like that.

CoffeeKillquest · Oct 28, 2015

I watch YuruYuri for the plot.

Nightbird · Oct 28, 2015

What kind of Games did he worked on?

anberlin44 · Oct 28, 2015

Blasphemy! Playing Knack increases love for Knack!
