The lack of MILFs in anime has been a long-standing problem in the industry and I hope it will addressed in this or the next season.

The world needs another Umineko and this time to not focus the marketing around the 9 year old.

Also for it to be good.

People don't just become murderers because they merc some noobs in CS, but if you don't think playing violent games and watching violent movies and TV hasn't changed how people view and interpret violence irl then you're dumb

I wrote an essay on this stuff for a technical writing class once.

There is a definite correlation between playing violent video games and how aggressive someone is. There's no denying that. But there's so many caveats you need to take into account. Is the person aggressive because they were predisposed towards violence before playing video games? What is the age group of the people playing violent video games, and does it match the game rating? How accurate are the rating labels in context of the game's contents?

We can ask similar questions about people who watch/read that kind of stuff. How many of them are pre-disposed towards content featuring child abuse/sexualization beforehand? Do they belong to an age group considered mature enough to handle the content maturely? Are there even labels or something for people to use so that they don't run into this stuff when they don't want to?

But in the end, these are just drawings of sexualized/abused children, and not depictions of actual events. The only reason I would therefore consider lolicon to not be as morally negative as actual child abuse is that no real children were directly harmed for the content, as far as anyone knows. So while it's potentially damaging to the mindset of the individuals that consume that content, you can't really say it's any worse than people watching porn or doing drugs or drinking alcohol. It's certainly not a desirable subculture for a nation to be known for, so that in itself might be a reason to ban the stuff, but considering how many decades this has existed for, it doesn't seem like the nation of Japan as a whole really cares. So unless you can find a correlation between lolicon and actual child abuse, I say chalk it up to freedom of expression and and leave it alone, for now.

Binan Koukou Chikyuu Bouei Bu Love (Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE!) is actually really funny and dumb and everyone should watch its first episode. I was expecting it to just be a "look at the cute guys" show but it's not

The first 4 minutes were gleaming golden nonsense. Then it kept getting better.
I think we have our dark horse of the season.

Zorak has died, but not before sending off a message to two other remaining moderators, who are now on their way to ADTRW. With our greatest hero dead, we need to spend the next year training if we ever hope to stand a chance against them.

I'll make the kancolle thread if nobody else wants to, but if you want to that's more than fine because the last time I tried to make an "effort thread" I got really bored as soon as I started and gave up.

He posted a thread about it, go poo poo that up with your weird opinions if you're curious.

TLDR is he wasn't really interested anymore, and to be honest, can you blame him?

Hey gang:

As a heads up, I've stepped down as moderator due to not really having the time to keep up with moderating as of late, as I'm sure some of you have noticed in light of how little I've actually been doing. Thank you for working with me for all these years and creating such interesting material. I'll still be around (and working on my own drat LP when I'm able to) but it was time for me to hang my modding hat up. Thankfully, we've got both a very solid Let's Play and Games moderator staff as is, so me departing really doesn't matter much here.

Thanks again! Keep up the video games
