But you can't have that lesbian youkai go Natsume's for boobs before realizing that Natsume (grandson) is male. Also the constant references to how girly Natsume is or the boy on boy undertones. It is necessary to keep the female audience members otherwise Natsume has to go full shonen.

How can people dislike Nature? Do you guys dislike happiness or what?

Oh, shit. The Gingitsune thing is actually underage furry romance:



WHY, HOSODA.

Omg the artwork is precious! Will watch!

And in today's exemplary piece of anime journalism, ten reasons why 90s anime was better! Actually it seems to contain bad stuff, so I'll just copy paste:

I just giggled. It wasnt even a laugh. It was one of those tee hee hee things.
People in denial are so silly!

[Cardcaptor Sakura] - 11

Madhouse may have blown all the budget earlier, but at least they didn't have to re-use 4 minutes of footage like last time!

In this episode, everyone is in love with Sakura and it's hella CLAMP.
 
Oh man I should check it out.

If there's one character that changes the most from manga to anime, it's probably Mugi, but it's mostly because of that and other little weird quirks she has like seemingly be able to read Azusa's mind.
That instance is changed in the anime to having Azusa not knowing she was voicing her thoughts.
I should do the same. :D

Well, I can't really say it's a tradition yet, considering it's only been one year since I started it. It was suggested in the K-ON! thread is why I started, and I'd like to make it a tradition.
 
You know what show I haven't heard about in a while: Sasami-san@Ganbaranai.

Did anyone finish that?

Seriously, anyone? Was it even any good?

It was fun .. the later episode were much better than the starters eps ..It actually had a plot and a theme besides the "ganbaranai"

It's worth a watch.

Hum ISML , you're telling me to choose between "Eucliwood Hellscythe" & "Konjiki no Yami"

i .... can't .

Wait i also have to choose between louise de la valierre & shana ?? But what's the difference between the 2 ?

Re: Dating your teacher as seen in anime and manga:

In all seriousness, the power dynamics involved in these kinds of relationships are pretty messed up which is why I always find it odd when they're presented romantically in these kinds of works. What gives?

People remember their hot teachers and don't think about what kind of teacher would actually get into a relationship with a student.

Isn't anime all about doing things that are forbidden in the most idealized situation? lol.

I thought it works well when its like the students last year in school, though I guess in all the onees I have its the student making the first move and they do avoid typical public places.

Have you not read any thread in OT about male student - female teacher relationships?

Ah yes but in anime and manga it tends to be female student - male teacher relationships. Which are like, the most frowned upon!

It's not even just CCS, Maison Ikkoku features it as well.

CCS does female student-male teacher, though.

Ah, I should have said "and then compare it to any OT thread about female student - male teacher". Except don't do that, because the stupidity will melt your brain. :(

I can think of at least two male teachers from my high school who married female students immediately after they graduated. I suppose that, at least around here, there's no social disapproval until you're caught doing something explicitly illegal!

Really? I think I only recall the other combination. Hm.

It's the same reason we have stories of rival gang/family members falling in love, brother sister love and such. It's the concept of forbidden love, which obviously would pretty much never turn out that way in the real world.

Rumiko managed to side-step it being distasteful with Maison Ikkoku by never actually saying much about Soichiro, including his age. And if we play into the parallels presented by Godai, we can assume they were of pretty similar age.

I, guess, on the plus side all the girls in Card Captor Sakura are like, 10, so nothing really that untoward can happen.

I watch a lot of shoujo but I don't recall any where the female student likes a teacher.

Hanamaru Kindergarten.

Both in High School and Kindergarten.

Majestic Prince - 03

I really don't see what this show is, the Tiger and Bunny angle gets dropped instantly, while the characters have their own thing, none of them have enough of a hook to keep interest, their hijinks is boring to watch and my interest was at zero when mecha's doing mecha-y action was happening that I stopped giving a crap by the time the cliffhanger happened at the end.

His incompetence in handling things is gonna bite hard now isn't it. Too late to tell her now I guess, hopefully he does the right thing.

Of course, long after directing Cardcaptor Sakura Morio Asaka would go on to direct Gunslinger Girl which is an entire series about little girls who love their handlers. It seems fair to say that he has a lot of experience in handling this kind of material deftly.
Have you done the math on Sakura's mom yet.

Sssh.

I know but there is a side history:

"There is But One Ultimate Way" Side Story that takes place after the Alicization arc which will not be completed until around volume 15.

Its a Harem end for the series, but Kawahara Reki confirmed on his twitter that this side story is not canon.
