The Hive Mind said:Title says it all. A friend keeps claiming Japan has the greatest culture in the world -- I need some really ripe, messed up anime as proof of how weird and creepy Japan can be.
I know they exist (all them 4chan-endorsed cat-girl fests 'n stuff) but I don't know the names of any of them so I can't just google them. Apparently
What seriously?Jazoni89 said:herp...derp It's got those naked women in it, so it must be perverted and a porno!TeeBs said:Elfen Lied, why because it trys to pretend its this serious drama while giving people a sense of deepness too it.
Case and point first episode
Im not even going to attack the first seen with the naked murder going on.
You get naked mew on the beach, why mew? because thats the sound she makes, also its the sound a cat is supposed to make in japan *Mew = Meow, its an onomatopoeia type word* why does mental retardation do this to her I don't know. The writer thought to himself "hmm how can I pass this character off as innocent" and within one minute of getting clothes and getting off the beach, she looks down out her shirt curiously showing us a tit. It tries to hide its perversion and that to me makes it more perverted.
Seriously?
If you think that then maybe your far too immature to even watch the series.
But most of it wasn't used as anything other than Fanservice...Zechnophobe said:Elfen Lied is violent, and has some nudity, especially in the first episode.

If you notice, the converstation was about WHERE MY AVATAR CAME FROM. I only bought up the picture because I wanted to give the other memember a (badass) photo, if you noticed, you quoted me saying "You can have this one."toriver said:Sorry for any double-post, but I just saw this after posting the first time. Black Jack? Perverted? HELL no! Unless some seriously messed-up Black Jack fans did something horrible to him. The kids love Black Jack here! It's one of the few mangas you'll find in school libraries! I looked through it a couple times and didn't see anything anyone could consider perverted.

That's all it was there for.
And the bulk of it happened at really inappropriate times, ruining the mood and meaning the previous event might of had.
Sorry, that was my fault, I didn't see the whole thing. Should have at least looked over at your avatar first. Came about as a result of skimming through the page, seeing the pic and making too many assumptions. What I mean by "unofficial messed-up fan made crap" is when people do take established childrens' characters (such as Black Jack) and do perverted things with them. The amount of time and effort put into it doesn't change the fact that it's still just...ugggh. I really don't want to see Mario and Princess Peach getting it on with weird fetishes, thank you very much. If you don't do that in your work, I have no problem with that and the comment is not directed at anything you do. In fact, I like seeing what non-perverted things fans do with characters and worlds. So, with that in mind, sorry if you took offense to my post. I should have looked more.Dr. wonderful said:If you notice, the converstation was about WHERE MY AVATAR CAME FROM.

You can have this one.
And that unofficial messed-up fan made crap? I worked on those things and they take MONTHS to produced.

We're mostly non-porn though, just local and we still can't any get our work online.
Also, you're a lucky basatrd, we only get Demon diaries and Gundum seed...*SHIVERS*
