Part 2/5:
The plot of Drama Queen revolves around a science fiction premise where aliens arrive on Earth to protect humanity from an impending meteor. Surprisingly, these extraterrestrial beings remorselessly begin to integrate into human society, leading to complex implications, one of which touches on socio-political themes of immigration.
Allegory or Racism?
Discussions ignite as some viewers claim the narrative has racist undertones, ostensibly drawing on stereotypes associated with immigration. As the analysis unfolds, the narrative serves as an allegory reflecting issues prevalent in countries dealing with high immigration rates. With over 18 million aliens residing in Japan, the manga humorously critiques perceived imbalances between the original population and newcomers.
