If "kinako" gets a TL note, then I think "nametake" also needs a TL note.

[3413413241234]

so they are all illegal wtf

 

[JaHommaPelaa]

9 year old that doesn't like sweets?
Was wondering where the fantasy tag came from, but it's all clear now.

 

[Cloy552]

Damnit why ya gotta remind me of their actual ages like this?

 

[zanonyn]

Bits of character flavor are always fun and that interlude was also amusing. Azul still looking like she might end up on the road not of "overcoming" her awakened kink, but rather embracing it and ascending it to become a Gamagoori style badass-M. Would love to see a take on that here if she pulls it off.

Although kind of weird to see so many people spazzing out about school girls being, duh, school girl age. If anything the unusual part is having a few (Lord/Sister) who seem well beyond that (and in turn having more complex experience and scheming on their own outside of the mascots' plan).

 

[TrueGoddessReincarnation]

All underage. SMH.

 

[undeadclown]

>All these people whining about the ages

They're anime girls. It's literally a meaningless number. The fact that if it said "18" next to them and you would instantly go "oh yes, this is fine" is proof of that. Age matters in real life because of mental development. That kind of goes out the window when the characters in question, you know, don't exist and thus have no mental development or sentience regardless of the arbitrary age you ascribe to them. They're lines on a paper. Sorry to ruin the keyfabe, but anime girls...aren't real.

 

[kwendy]

When noone is legal - everyone is... Wait, I don't think that is how it goes.

Spoiler

I personally don't care if anyone is legal or not, I just want to make a joke

 

[agtra]

Why is people treating drawing as if they are the real things smh. I think you guys are the one who is sick.

 

[interfior]

wow kaoruko is a gamer

 

[mmosimca]

I'm not sure I buy the argument that some people make (that this kind of material is training a new generation of child predators), but the hyper-sexualization of young women IS a problem in our society, and this doesn't help, whether it's a drawing or not.

That said... this manga is mostly doing it ironically. It's a parody of the magical girls genre, which has always had this issue. If you told the animators of Sailor Moon that people were jerking off to the transformation sequences, they'd pretend to act shocked probably, but they know what they're doing.

I particularly enjoy things that adeptly parody issues in popular genres, which is probably why I like things like this, Madoka Magica, and Kill La Kill far more than any of the original Magical Girl series.
