Nuclear boy and genpatsu-kun

Genpatsu -kun
I thought that it was a nice way to attract children's attention. Especially, the voice actor's voice and the animation were nice for kids to watch. Along with these factors, the colors used were also nice; many of the colors were in pastel.
Nuclear boy
The animation in this video was more violent and dark compared to the one in Japanese. For instance, the nuclear boy wore weird and wicked eye cover and the doctors had scary expressions. The background colors were also dark as well.

Both videos talked about the nuclear power plant accident in Fukushima. Since the creator thought this news would be hard for children to understand but is necessary for them to know, the creator referred this accident to human waste and gas that humans produce.
I cannot understand why some people criticized this video that it is inappropriate when the video was released because today, a kanji drill with 💩 is sold and it is one of the best selling books. Many parents are actually agreeing with the kanji drill because the kids are studying the kanjis with their own motive. Because of this reason, I cannot think that this video was inappropriate. Sometimes, a bit of humor and inappropriate expressions are necessary in order to attract people's attention.
However, I could not agree with some contents of the video because they are wrong. The video mentioned that nuclear power plant accident will recover in two days but I cannot think this is true. If it were to end in two days, why is the government still arguing with this accident? It does not mean that false informations can be released just because the target does not know anything. Every informations should be true.
