He was depicted as a Native American chief and would perform traditional dances and rituals during games. The mascot became popular with fans and was seen as a symbol of the team's identity. However, as time went on, the portrayal of Chief Noc-A-Homa came under scrutiny. Many people criticized the mascot for perpetuating stereotypes and promoting cultural appropriation.
Many people criticized the mascot for perpetuating stereotypes and promoting cultural appropriation.

Reviews Overall Style Story Grammar CharacterA darker kind of mahouka
It's basically the same setup, a brother who is the god of war and death, and a sister who is a hopeless brothercon and also secretly pretty stronk. He then becomes a teacher (as opposed to student) at her school, and is so dashingly handsome (no joke, this is how it's written) that all the little schoolgirl hearts fall the moment they see him. In fact it's so bad that when they first see him, they literally flock to him like a group of dogs would flock to someone holding their brand of candy.
All the girls want him, even his sister secretly wants him, all her friends want him, all the female teachers want him, all the other women want him, in fact, all the women in the story basically want him. It's like he's been cursed with such beauty that everyone instantly loves him, now instead of getting sick of it like C.C. he has a history of fucking like a rabbit.
So yeah, this story is a bit heavy on the harem side, perhaps a bit too heavy.
Not to mention that every third chapter or so is a side story/flashback about how he fucked some other girl. And then there was an awful lot of murder in-between the fuckenings, but our protagonist is as good at killing as he is at breathing, he is legitimately the #2 ranked assassin/mercenary/killingmachine of the world, with #1 being the actual grim reaper, so as far as humans go, he's really #1. Killing sprees don't take him that long.
So this story is just a boatload of sci-fi killing sprees with some fucking in-between.
Honestly, I think the story of his rise would have been a more interesting read, instead of all these side stories and flashbacks that break the pacing of this story, what I think the author should really have done is write a prequel. I mean if he's really making this many side stories, it's eventually gonna end up amounting to a whole book's worth of text anyways (it's probably already close in fact, like 200+ pages maybe)
Now the low style score is because the story is written more like a script than a novel (author even admitted that this is what he's doing). As for the character score, I mean yeah, read the entirety of the above text and you will know why I gave it a bad character score, every girl is the same character and most of the men are two bit villains or nobodies.
As for the story, well it's not as bad as I've made it sound, the worldbuilding is at least mildly interesting for one, and although the author is taking his sweet ass time about it, there are some interesting main and sub plots going on too.
But for whatever reason, when I reached chapter 28 (or rather the yet another side story after chapter '20') I just kinda stopped reading and I have not picked it up since.
If you were to ask me why, I can't really give you a reason, not one that I'm sure about, but it's probably that this seems like kind of an important side story that I'd want to read, at the same time as I want it to just go away so I can get on with the main plot and those conflicting emotions resulted in some kind of reading paralysis where I just quit.

This mascot was portrayed as a more generic Brave character and was intended to be less offensive than Chief Noc-A-Homa. However, even this new mascot received criticism for perpetuating stereotypes and trivializing Native American culture. Eventually, the Atlanta Braves retired both mascots in 1989. The team made efforts to distance themselves from the controversy and began focusing on more inclusive and respectful representation of Native American culture. They implemented various cultural education programs and initiatives to ensure that their portrayal of Native Americans was accurate and respectful. The controversy surrounding the Atlanta Braves mascots Chief Noc-A-Homa and Chief Knock-A-Homer highlights the ongoing debate about the use of Native American imagery and symbolism in sports. While some argue that it honors and celebrates Native American culture, others argue that it perpetuates harmful stereotypes and promotes cultural appropriation. Ultimately, it is up to the teams and organizations to make decisions regarding their mascots and to consider the perspectives and concerns of Native communities..
