Death March kara Hajimaru Isekai Kyousoukyoku - Ch. 133 - Friendship with the Hero

[Xelarion]

Brother really needs to learn how sacred the bond between a man and his weird reincarnator auntie (loli) is

And thus a fragment of Hermes was born!

Then again it's not like other nations and religious organizations don't share this taboo.

To whit: the popular story about Annie Oakley, the famous lady trick shot and sharp shooter, has her supposedly marrying her husband, Frank E. Butler, at the age of 16. Of course, this matter is contested to this day, with some people putting the marriage several years later.

But no matter which version of the story you ascribe to, the one incontrovertible fact is that when they first met, she was 15 and he was 28 (a difference of 13 years between them - you may now insert the shocked pikachu face here).

Fortunately for our sensibilities, it was real love. They never parted ways, not even really in death. After she passed away, he passed on as well just a few weeks later - he was that devoted to her.

Anyhow, the point is that at some point, very very recently (that is, from the perspective of human history as a whole), it became absolutely taboo for an adult to have any relations with a teenager beyond what is deemed socially accepted (e.g.: family members and teachers).

I have a number of thoughts about this matter, but it would be better discussed via private messages. Feel free to hit me up.

Just two few corrections

Here he is saying "More..." "just a bit more..." as he is getting it and are improving


The here: It wasn't Liza who told him, but Rin-chan (Ringrande) who talk about the Legend of Yamato.

Eh, current government aside, they are hardly the only offenders. Top 5 for sure, but think some religious organizations are worse. Middle Eastern cultures openly violently oppress their female populations, and widely practice genital mutilation when they hit puberty. Two or three wives are not uncommon, and few care about their brides age.

I've also heard there is a lot of human trafficking and child prostitution in Southeast Asia, and it's hard to forget the long standing allegations of child sexual abuse against the different factions of the Christian faith.

So it's not like Japan is the only ones who have a long history of pedophilia. Their media just gives no fucks about exposing the deviants in their society. Even if it does come off more then a little creepy

They aren't "exposing" their deviants, they are normalizing them. You can't say all of Japan is deficient in media literacy.

If I have a guy come on stage and sieg hiel, and then the play continues unabated, that is telling the audience the Nazi salute is not worth commenting on. Japan, by frequently producing media where pedophilic gags are on-average treated with the same sort of annoyance as a class clown, is assigning the level of severity to "a clownish sex-pest." He's a vocally-avowed pedophile and the strongest reaction we're getting is the equivalent of a raised eyebrow.

Sure, this is another world with vaguely medieval sensibilities, so maybe they won't care but all the summoned should call him out on it. If only to differentiate them as summoned individuals with different morals from the current world. The MC's non-reaction is complicity.

Can honestly say I've been consuming Japanese media for the better part of 50 years. Japanese culture is nothing but consistent in their shameless display of their kinks and passions. They don't need to normalize something that they have been willingly exposing to the world since people started exporting their literature, anime, and movies.

Forcibly reminded of just that happening about a year ago, and how half a country's population tried to tell the other half they were making a mountain of an molehill.

The same could be said about sexual harassment in all levels of their society, rampant abuse of their working class in black companies, fetishs and sexual kinks, BL, GL, incest, ect, ect... lolis and the pedophiles that want to "protect" them are just one more aspect of their culture.

Except there are many times as many transmigrators that revile the loli lovers as not. The only reason the child chasers get more screen time is because the author is either pandering to their audience and or indulging in their own passion.
