@Lucrecia @CountryMage @SemperSolus I'm thinking along these lines too. This is a theme in some of KUI's short stories too. The demons are originally weak and have no desires of their own but when exposed to the desires of people they gain power and want to consume/fulfil more complex wishes...

I've been offline for a while, hence the very late replies. @crazybars I've read all that you've posted but I don't want to necro this thread so instead of a long reply I'll just agree with you that Anime and Manga is more than porn and respectfully disagree on the rest. @CrimsonDarkh Same as...

@Pentium_MMX @narra Volume 5 cover: Farlyn is slightly knock kneed (X -kyaku)?? Link Link Volume 7 cover: Cats are digitigrades, Izutsumi being a catgirl prefers walking on tip toes and not placing her weight on the heel leading to exaggerated foot arch, kinda like ballet feet. Volume 8...

This thread is an offtopic continuation of https://mangadex.org/thread/226899 That thread threw up some topics like censorship, cultural gatekeeping, economic and political considerations in the creation of anime and manga, societal and political implications of creative expression etc., so I...

Sorry for the late replies. @CrimsonDarkh I hear you and it seems that we are broadly in agreement with each other. I just want to make a few minor points: - I meant anime and manga related journalistic sources like ANN, MAL, kotaku.com, animeuknews.net etc. - I too am against a broad and...

@Granitefish @mochi https://heinonline.org/HOL/LandingPage?handle=hein.journals/nyuls31&div=41 Edit: You can find more research using Libgen or Google Scholar @crazybars @CrimsonDarkh Right, so Patreon is really blanket banning anime and manga art from its platform? I am not clued up on Patreon...

I normally wouldn't rerun this discussion ( https://mangadex.org/thread/160008/2 ) but Coronovirus lockdown must be getting to me... So much mis/disinformation here- "humanizing drawings of fictional characters to the point of giving them human rights" or "virtue signalling" or "this is about...

Thanks for the scanlations. I would suggest using "Our clients are sacred" as a good compromise. http://thezensite.com/ZenEssays/DogenStudies/Soto_Zen_in_Japan.html : ...the convention of calling the deceased a hotoke (literally, a Buddha) ... had its roots in indigenous ideas about the dead...

So many juicy little details in this chapter but I’m feeling a strong sense of foreshadowing given

@BP No, it is just speculation on my part based on the story reveals so far and my interpretation of the author’s art. I may be wrong of course but I suspect the details will be given in future chapters or in the volume exclusive monster tidbits. @Iwizesol I thought spoiler tags were only...

@E-kun @BP @Danimal696 @me474 Chillchack is a virtuous husband but the succubi attacking him look slightly different from each other... Reminds me of Kui Ryoko's short story Love catalogue

Marcille's taste is no surprise: Also monster tidbits from volume 6:

@AbyssalMonkey Hentai loli/shota is Virtual Child Pornography. I never said any of that as you'd know if you could be bothered to actually read my posts. I even linked to an academic paper arguing that possession of real Child Pornography should have more lenient sentencing compared to actual...

@Kaarme Thank you for fairly engaging with me on this topic and the resulting constructive discussion. For future reference the percentage of potential paedophiles among the male population is probably around ~20% based on one study ( https://doi.org/10.1016/0145-2134(89)90030-6 ) @Rhaptopia...

Kaarme: "In the end 99% of paedophiles never...", "It's 100% the same thing as..." I'm guessing this is your opinion and these figures aren't based on any empirical research or the opinion of an 'expert'. Kaarme: "Nor will I see [any evidence] about 2D art turning people into criminal...
