I'm also curious as to what media gets the pedophile seal of approval for some reason.

Why are you guys posting about some lovely blog.

I was hoping that the new OVA was out when new posts appeared.

Motto: Aug 3, 2013

quote:

It turns out Miyamori�s not the only one to be put in bed � after our beloved Shirobako heroine, it�s time for her sexy colleague Erika to show her erotic side in another fantastic must-have dakimakura.

Yano�s definitely a lot bolder than the kawaii Idepon Miyamori, and it shows here. The first side features the petite blonde girl with a daring smile as she almost urges us to get on with it. She�s already got an erotic piece of nightwear on, which she has slightly started to take off, clearly showing how ready she is to take that next step. It�s rare to see such an explicit expression in a dakimakura, but this is highly tantalizing.

She�s a very seducing girl and isn�t shy about showing her many qualities, a boldness which is also part of those qualities as evidenced here.
The reverse side, however, is completely different � the wild beast has now been tamed, and she looks on earnestly. She still clearly wants it just as much as Aoi, but she�s strangely shy. This side is especially brilliant because of the obvious eroticism found in the fact that her clothes are all messed up. It also shows some beautiful bishoujo legs, and even her feet for those with the relevant fetish � the strawberry on the cake.

It also clearly implies that she�s not wearing any panties, leaving us to imagine the beautiful shape of her bare backside. It�s surprising given the nature of the first side, but equally brilliant � the charm is different, but just as great. This is a marvelous piece, with the two sides actually exhibiting different realms of Erika�s beauty � they�re both just as great and valuable.
The first dakimakura was brilliant already, and this one is no let-down � they�re quite unique as they sell the distinct appeal of each bishoujo, depending on one�s own preferences they might like either pillow cover better, but ultimately they�re both of the same top-class quality and must-buys.

What�s even better is that Ema and Gothic Loli-sama will also get their own soon enough � but we certainly hope that Zuka-chan, Midori, and Misa also show their sexy sides, as we can only yearn to see more of Shirobako�s sublime cast of females in such an enticing light, and leaving out such wonderful girls would be an unforgettable disappointment.

hmm yes this is certainly a blog worthy of our attention and care

...Why the gently caress would you review a body pillow? "Nice rear end, but also lumpy in ways that don't let me pretend that I am not a worthless lonely shell of a man. 2/5 would not dry hump again."

Ahahaha, he did one for Aoi's too.

An actual person posted:

Shirobako�s sex device, Miyamori Aoi, has become a pillow that otaku can put in their bed and fantasize themselves taking the virginity of � her shorts are down, and she�s already prepared for what comes next.
What a rather special dakimakura this is. Most are designed to leave otaku feeling like rapists, but this one is surprisingly warm and welcoming. Miyamori is lying on a bed, her shorts are down, and her sweater is sliding off her chest as she�s pulling at it to cover her lower half. She decided not to wear pantsu today apparently, and with no brassiere either, the only barrier between us and her bare body is that sweater.
Per her expression, she looks eager to take it off and show us.
On the reverse end, it�s not more of the same, as she looks more reserved � as if coming home from work, and being copulated with was not part of her schedule for the remainder of the day. Her clothing are still clearing away though, and whatever she had planned, she evidently has new plans now.
This is the kind of pillow that dreams are made of, ironically.

While this guy is kind of funny, I'm also mildly depressed that a pretty well rounded female character who was well defined on her own rather than in relation to a motherly, sexy, or romatic relationship still gets categorized as the show's sex device, apparently.

Also I will fall in love with this show forever if an OVA comes out and Aoi just casually mentions how many dudes she's banged over the years just to take a shot at people who want to take her body pillow's virginity. Even if it does violate the obvious true pairing of Aoi/Erika.

Also also: oh my god "pantsu" what a loving weeb.

Erika/Tarou is the true pairing because if two people fight a lot in fiction that means they are actually soulmates. Somehow.

the director of shirobako got really mad about those pinup posters and is probably pretty mad about the dakimakuras but those are the work of one single producer on the show and he has no say in it.

Really? I had been wondering about that. Like I said, they seemed to go to quite a bit of effort to characterize characters like Aoi without really sexualizing them, so I thought it would be odd for many people on that staff to just sign those characters up to star in creepy Otaku poo poo.

Megami is a monthly magazine that comes with like 30 anime pinups and most of them are really skeevy because they exist to sell the mag. Some shows manage to avoid this (like all the K-On stuff I remember seeing, and Girls und Panzer).

When they released that one of Miyamori in the shower or whatever Mizushima got on twitter and said something like "This isn't the image we're going for with this show, please ignore that"

The shower one is a well-done piece of fan art. If you look at the credits in the upper-left hand corner, it says Ema drew it and Iguchi supervised it.

Can it be considered fanart if a character drew it

It's basically if one of those three reps for the media companies was a producer instead of people like Miyamori or Tarou.

It's a really good show and I hope they make more. If not, I hope the creative team behind it gets to make more anime original stories about adults.

They may have, but they're not at all relevant or important. At least one of them might also be secretly in lesbians with one of the others

Yano was confirmed a virgin by the producers on twitter because 2ch got mad she might have dated Hiraoka in school.
