I really love this anime. This is the best anime ever made. People that associate this anime with pedophilia are stupid. I relate so much with all the characters.
It's weird how they changed Nobue's age for the anime because they didn't want people to see a schoolgirl smoking and drinking beer.
It's terrible, the things they do for television adaptations.
Like in FMP they replaced the North Koreans with fictional ex-soviet states and stuff, and side-stepped the divided China and other alternate-history elements.
I know, and that particular thing, nobody would have cared about it. Except maybe North Korea, but who cares about North Korea ffs...
I think it is moe. I showed excerpts from ep 5 to my therapist and she agreed it actually brought out the disadvantages of nobue-onee-chan's lascivious grooming of ana-chan, bad for ana, miu, and nobue herself. And since me and my therapist spend a lot of time talking about why not to sex children I think it is a good series for me. Except it is very loli moe. But not porn.
Wow, therapy sessions that involve Ichigo....
Now that's something.
But it's true that people do tend to confuse Moe and porn. There is a distinct difference. It's like the difference between say, a cabaret song routine and a strip-tease. The difference is maybe even bigger, since in most cases, one doesn't actually want to fuck the characters in question, since that would spoil their innocence and bring them displeasure. That paradox is what is appealing. The protection/desire paradox.
The manga is a different story to the show. The manga has more loli moe, but as with all anime adaptations it was toned down when they animated it. The anime itself is not anything to be worried about.
Not every person needed to watch pedo undertoned character designs
Chika is my wife, ok?
You must see where they allow marriage with elementary school kids
I though the series was just plain funny and enjoying to watch, I didn't pay attention to the dreaded "intents" that everyone complains about.
