Basically some genius thought it was a great idea to put a teenager with gigantic boobs getting fondled “playfully” in a newspaper and the fine men and women of the UN did not care for it.

I missed it by a few days but the weeb community is in an uproar that all those stuffy politicians can’t see the beauty of sexualized minors like they can.

      also can I watch one Yuri anime where its a wholesome romance between two respectably drawn women? like holy crap everything about the romance just feels like its sexualized for weird people. Either that or the romance is “hinted at” or some bullshit. Studios! Stop doing this shit!

      • This happened to me too! Just got into anime thanks to my best friend, so I went searching for some more to watch.

        Found this fairly popular one (don’t remember what it’s called), Yuri, seemed nice and cute.

        Downloaded it. Watched some episodes. ??? / ?!?!?! / This is not what was expected. Deleted. Removed from my list.

          People highly rate “Yuri Yuri” and “Citrus” as good Lesbian romances when its just fucking sexualizing them! Citrus is basically incest while Yuri Yuri is just the classic sexualization. Animation needs to be liberated, because this is straight disgusting what capitalism and its problems are doing.

              And I’m sad because the “female friendship” ones that have obviously have gay undertones, are just fine! Just give me a dash of love and romance in that and boom! We’re done with our problems! El Cazador De La Bruja! Riddle Story of the Devil! Stuff like this would be perfect with that romance you can see the creators physically having to restrain themselves from making! God this world is killing art with its disgraceful values and motives, may socialism free us all.

              • Honestly, I’m still looking for that ideal “relationship anime”. Just a nice anime about a wholesome relationship, no extraneous bullshit tacked onto it. I know it’s not that interesting, but still.

                But I’ve yet to find it. Either it has someone be incredibly awkward (and not in a cute way), or some point about one of the characters’ past, which is never used in any meaningful way, or some other annoying detail.

                A lot of them that get close seem to really just want to become sit-coms, or tease the viewer just until the last moment, when you finally get what you want, and BAM! it’s over

                  Its such a monetized industry that they do all this for money now, nothing else. Keep everyone hooked with sexualization, and censor anything that may tick off investors. Anime could be glorious if it was just given solely to the workers!

                  Try Just Because!. I’m currently 9 episodes in and theres only 1 boob joke and (iirc) 0 lewd scenes. It’s been an absolute breath of fresh air. Feels like characters just living their lives.

      “Would you like a cute story about lesbian romance with dragons?”

      “Yes.”

      “Here’s an extended scene sexualizing a couple six year olds.”

      “Wait no what the fuck.”

    I actually like that show, (well aside from the creepy ephebophile shit) but this is just a bad look to say the least.
