They probably wouldn't. Disrespectful is definitely the word - if the American blog had any taste, rather than waving the picture in people's faces, they should have explained what was going on and then said, "Here's a link to the picture if you want to see it, definitely NSFW." (However, I do realize I'm putting the concepts "taste" and "Tanuki" in the same sentence).

The hilarious thing about this is people were saying yesterday on the Alice Nine tag, "Why aren't more people flipping out over this?" and getting replies saying, "Dude, nearly everyone who accesses Tumblr through the web has Tanuki blocked."
