Why not? Seems on the up and up.

If yall think SAO is ruining anime or represents everything wrong with it, fine. But to go and think SK isn't anything worse than it is just blind mediocrity. The show comes off as blind stupid ecchi which I don't enjoy.

Damn, Azusa got fucking scorched at the beach. I've never been sunburned head to toe like that before. Shit's gotta suck. Sunburns are some of the biggest pains in the ass in the whole fucking world.

I'm pretty sure that Sawako could get fired, possibly have charges against her pursued, if Mio were to tell the school what she tried to do. You're a fucking professional, Sawako. Fucking act like it. Even though you are enjoying a day at the beach and whatnot.

But Asuza learns that goofing off can be fun and even productive. Three cheers for goofing off and ignoring responsibility!

Senran Kagura 1
The only amusing part was the section with the ninja teacher. Seems like there isn't much else apart from gratuitous boob/ass shots. Also the blonde girl has the laziest transformation ever. You just unbuttoned your shirt and put on boots. That's not a costume.

At least in Senran Kagura there are forms of erotica other than simulated rape so you don't have to hate yourself while you fap.

not that any of us have that much conscience anymore of course

Last one for tonight:

Sakurasou 09:

And suddenly, closet mural.

And suddenly, big-boobed Englander appears! She's come to whisk Mashiro away! You can't have her! But you can keep showing off your cleavage. I'm okay with this.

Ryunosuke appears! .... fuck, I must reevaluate!

Sorata no BAKA!!!! Also, Cultural Festival time!

Also, wrong decision Sorata. You are a baka after all.

Just 2 more episodes plus the ova for the first season!
In the manga, Sawako doesn't just try to grope Mio, she straight up molests her breasts.
 
Saki Episode of Side A - 12
Saki%20Episode%20of%20Side%20A%20-%2012.jpg

Well the first game ended on a very high note where the walk of the titan walking over her ennemies as if they were ants was only halted thanks to a considerable amount of teamwork and sacrifices.

It was pretty good episode thanks to a number of factors ..

Saki is good stuff no doubt

You don't fucking say?

Your show has a character who is appealing as a block of fucking wood. There may be some us here who happen to dislike/hate/despise said character and the pack of floozies that want his 2 years worth of seed. Different strokes for different folks. Deal with it.

I am grateful for some of their material though, as it led to some wonderful C83 doujins.

Okay.... Show not to watch this season: Senran Kagura.
I cannot help but envision kayos as a harem protagonist now.

"Boobies are lewd and indecent and I don't want to have anything to do with them even if I have these girls constantly harassing me!"
where that gif son you know when you say that show its that gif son. get this work.
You are somehow making less sense than usual.

"What are these girls with boobs doing to me? Why are they shoving them in my face!? Why are these girls mounting me?? WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS??"

I think I'd sorta be like this, in a "Uh, what the hell are you doing? And what the hell are you doing?" way. The whole thing would be so bizarre that I don't think I'd really be able to enjoy it. I'd think I was having some fucked up dream or acid trip or something.

I don't do acid.
 
...How exactly does that even work? Is it akin to those Senran Kagura gifs people were posting?
A little hyperbole on my part, but she actually gropes her boobs.
Manyuu Hikenchou - 01

Yeah, I'm going to enjoy this.
Yay!

He's got the personality for it.

And more and more melon boob bouncing ladies will get gathering around Kayo every episode while he scream "OMG another pair of BOOBS! FML!"

Until one day he met.... (okay I'll stop here this is getting more and more into yaoi territory)

edit:

Someone please GIF this with kayos name on top of the character.

It would be the fair thing to do. I mean, we lambast SAO for the way it treats its female characters, but smut shows like Kagura are just as objectifying of women.

I have yet to see tentacles or creepy rapey older guys come into play so its not at SAO's level yet. :lol

I dunno, I think an obstensibly more... uh... I don't really know how to describe SAO, but it's not as out and out "GOD DAMN BOOB AND TIT SHOTS" in premise... I mean, the expectations are different. Obviously Kagura objectifies women like woah, but it's not exactly pretending to do anything else

Personally I think they're both blah

Magi episodes 10 and 13

Yeah that was pretty neat. Really digging the new OP too. New ED is also better if only because there was nowhere else to go but up.

Have I mentioned that Mor is awesome? Because Mor is awesome.

But no one will call Kagura the "smartest anime of the decade".
The seriousness SAO presents itself, paired with its staggering amount of misogyny make it really dangerous.

I haven't seen SK yet, but I don't see how would be the case. People accept that SK is a guilty pleasure at best.
 
Saki_ Achiga-hen - Episode of Side-A - 13


Man mahjong is really some serious business !

The first part was great but still a classic but the second was awesome! Dat cliffanger !

Considering the activation conditions this hability should be quite cheated ..can't wait to watch the 14th episode ..

HARVEST TIME !!!

Seriously? So because SK is overtly and explicitly portraying what's wrong with anime while SAO tries to take itself seriously but in reality is the virtually the same as SK, we just let SK do whatever the fuck it wants. Ugh. I don't like that mentality.

Either, we view the same and both are bad or there are clear and definite lines that make both shows distinct.

yeah, joking aside, trying to compare how the shows treat women is pretty much splitting hairs. Both bad, only different kinds of bad.

I can respect a show that's unambitious but actually does what it's supposed to do competently, I guess even for dumb titty shows that are the epitome of unambitious and safe. I have no interest in Senran Kagura but neither do I fear it; it's no more injurious to the current state of anime than another season of Ikkitousen would be. I can understand why people are more apprehensive toward works that have more potential to be influential in bad ways even if they're perhaps less reprehensible in some ways than other works.

this tell us that SAO should have more boobs .. and no one would had any problems

Essentially. I expected nothing of SK that involves my brain, and will continue not to. Brain off, boob bounce, enjoy. That's all I want from SK. SAO on the other hand I was hoping might be a decent show. Alas.

So we let stuff like SK fly but SAO is a no go. I don't get this.

SAO is so bad that SK is acceptable now. Thanks SAO!

It's not like the people who hate SAO are all unanimously loving Senran Kagura now. And people hate on SAO for more than how it treats it's female characters.

The inconsistent, sometimes incoherent plot didn't help it, that's for sure.

Michael Moore's work is bad (if people are watching it for information instead of Michael Moore's humor). It comes across as intelligent, but it isn't.

Snakes on a Plane is dumb. It has no pretenses about being anything other than that.

You're probably right that both are bad, but I just can't hate SK.

Forsooth, is this an argument over Senran kagura and SAO I see? Were it that no other animated entity seemed worthy of thine discussion this fortnight?

Senran Kagura is self-aware of what it's presenting, while SAO's misogynistic themes hide behind the veil of an Anime trying to exhibit itself as a work with actual plot, characters, and writing. There is a distinction in how these two shows are meant to be perceived.
