I like how normal this word seems to be used now. Like calling it something esoteric instead of what it actually is somehow makes it casual..
We live in interesting times

No. Not all anime is trash. Thats a pretty assanine opinion as anime is a medium that has many genres and quality of fiction just like any other. Not all anime is the sexualization of children like the majority of Loli seems to be.

In terms of art, objecting the existance of such works would be even worse. Even the novel Lolita was regarded as controversial and pornographic when it was published.
 
Can someone explain the appeal of lolis to me?

Can someone explain the appeal of lolis to me?

You see, sometimes, when a person really likes someone, they spend their every waking moment thinking of them, planning that right moment, confessing, flowers in their hand, under the romantic moonlight and what they hear in response, it... burns like fire, cuts like a knife, it brings people down, they crawl into their rooms, they stare at the world around them, moving onward, leaving them behind, they clench their fists and curse everyone around them, and as their soul rots, day by day, they yearn for something. They yearn for the world they saw through the eyes of their younger self, full of opporutnity, of promise. So much larger than their room and blinking screen of their monitor, which they confined themselves. They crave that innocense, they crave the feeling of not being judged, for being accepted for who you are, for not having everyone turn around and glance at the bags under their eyes and at their unironed t-shirts and bagfulls of insta-ramen and cheap soda they buy once a month, of not being told to find a fucking job by their own fucking mothers, for all those fucking chads that get to live perfect lives devoid of clarity they achieved! THEY DREAM TO FORGET HOW PAINFUL EXISTENCE IS AND HOW ONLY ESCAPE IS SHINING AT THEM THROUGH THE NOOSE HANGING FROM THEIR CEILING FAN! THE LOOK FOR SOMETHING THAT MAKES LIFE FEEL LIKE IT'S WORTH LIVING! SOMETHING PURE AND UNTAINTED BY HORRIBLE REALITY!

SOMETHING THAT REPRESENTS TIME... time... where they could never imagine that a person they cared the most for in their entire life, will respond to their naked heart, laid bare in front of them with words such as "Ew, gross. Please, never speak to me again! And stop stalking my facebook page!"



Or so I was told >_>

Loli's ARE trash. It is a fact.

BTW half of the characters in this video arent even Loli so Im a bit confused.

I thought it was supposed to show that all lolis are abandoned in that trash heap but like, over half the abandoned characters are Moe and not Loli. And Moe is the future, so...

Yeah, this doesn't make much sense


I'll give him props for the production, but a 0 for content.

*Doesn't know what the fuck Loli means so proceeds to google it*

Seriously wtf Kojima?, Maybe/hopefully he doesn't know what it means?
 
He's posting in amazement of what people are parodying Death Stranding with more than anything else from what he says in that tweet.

Death Stranding upload from a crazy perspective.
I was surprised.
The world sure is large...

I’m not into anime, so what is loli? I think I’m picking up what it is, but I’m afraid to google this unless a co-worker I dislike leaves his computer unlocked.

Think it's just young looking pixels.

It's probably cause it's a parody of what he's working on and he's just as shocked as we are.

I just wouldn't be googling that. It's a no brainer. That word should be banned from existence.

He is a creative genius, but that word isn't something I'd let any average human being try to interpret or Google.

Lolicon (ロリコン rorikon), also romanised as lolikon or rorikon, is Japanese discourse or media focusing on the attraction to young or prepubescent girls. The term lolicon is a portmanteau of the phrase "Lolita complex";[1] it describes an attraction to young or prepubescent girls, an individual with such an attraction, or lolicon manga or lolicon anime, a genre of manga and anime wherein childlike female characters are often depicted in an "erotic-cute" manner (also known as ero kawaii), in an art style reminiscent of the shōjo manga (girls' comics) style.

Loli comes from the word Lolita. If you haven't heard of Lolita before here's a Wikipedia link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lolita

Yep, that’s what I thought – figured it had to do with Lolita… so nope not clicking that vid.. thanks
