The Anime Erotic

[WindKnight]

Ok, there's an interesting talk on youtube by Johnathan Clements titled 'the anime erotic', which delves into Anime erotica, specifically its production, archetypes, and ways it works within/around Japanese censorship and how that affects what it does and doesn't show, and how it can affect what goes on in more mainstream shows, and I think it would be of genuine interest to a lot of the forum goers, and would be enlightening with regards to some of the debates we've had.

I have to warn, the video itself contains short clips from anime which include nudity, generally no more explicit than topless women, but after taking advice from a mod I thought it best not to directly link or embed the video. Its easily searchable on youtube, and I'm happy to PM a link to people if they are unable to find it. (2nd warning - its a long video - 55 mins overall).

Well, no mod has talked to me, so... WHEE!!!!

[Mod edit: please do not link directly to this video, as it is saucy in parts.]

EDIT: Whoops, forgot to type the thing.

Made it about 4 minutes in before I had to stop watching. Got chased away from the video from boredom overload, so I'm just gonna let you all watch it, and parse what I need from replies. Go forth, my minions!

That really isn't accurate to the video, the talk is almost entirely about adult focused content.

As to the video itself, as others have pointed out it is a bit boring and there is not much to talk about, mostly just generalities about the industry that are well known, but there is no real focus or interesting empirical evidence presented that is worth discussing.
