Non-plot, non-main character spoilers for Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney in order to talk about the game's portrayal of sex and fetishes:
I've been playing through Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, and there is a very clear dom-sub relationship in the game. The characters talk about being into public humiliation, being physically walked on with dirty stilettos, and just all kinds of stuff, with the dom asking if one of the main cast members is into that kind of stuff and suggesting that they could join. It's also either an open relationship, polyamory, or just casual flings with multiple people. The word "sex" is obviously never said, but here's a direct quote: "I like being on the top."
This game previously censored alcohol, turning it into juice. I don't understand.
My guess is they made it vague enough for children to not understand the references but not vague enough for adults to catch it. Lots of cartoons do this as well. This is one of my favorite examples.
