The idea that a simple role reversal is a problem because it's not ok for it to happen to a woman? That's the only thing I find particularly offensive.

the OP is out? or you mean this ED
Can't listen to the bad? good? dub at work but I wouldn't expect anything really out of Guin Saga. It was alright as far as it went but it was more like a standard JRPG tale than anything with all that implies. Of course, it's not helped that due to the series it's adapted from being so long that it kind of peters out at the end without any proper resolutions to the questions it raises.I tried watching Guin Saga when it was airing and found it dull and cliched before dropping it, but the clips of the dub really make me want to try it again.

I have to agree. That kind of abuse happens way too much when a tsundere beats the everloving crap out of a male in most harem shows I can think of. When it happens to a woman, the IDEA that its any more right or wrong is whats sexist, not that it happens.
Random anime plot I made up on the spot said:A new, seemingly generic male character transfers to a school, yadda yadda. Only for it to be revealed that he's got a serious medical condition that triggered when the infamous, serious, tsundere girl couldn't help but end up punching him right in the chest. Guy goes to the hospital to get treated and the girl ends up getting charged for assault. But, before a verdict is reached and the girl gets some jail-time, the guy sees an opportunity to his advantage and decides to not have her thrown in jail, but rather for her to work for him and his family to pay off the medical bill she caused them to have.

It's almost as though he sees women as delicate little flowers that need to be protected.

does anyone have any 48 hour passes they can hook me up with?
It's ABFAre we seriously at a point where slapstick violence in comedy is considered offensive?
I wish there was a show where there were at least some consequences for that action!
Like, something like this:
I'm not gonna lie, I'd watch an anime with this kind of premise.
Nozaki-kun makes a point of not linking anybody through romantic feelings, outside of Sakura's one-sided love for Nozaki. Hori is Kashima's upperclassman in a club, and that is how they relate to each other. Forcing that pairing through the prism of intimate romance completely misreads the context.

I really like this one. Others may disagree. I never found out why.
RandomC was great when Omni and Divine was around. After these two left, interest was dropped.http://randomc.net/

I just spent the last half hour on Someanithing
Love Live! S2. What a monster in sales...
Mahouka is selling well, and KLK didn't sell as much as I expected per volume.
I already sat through the whole thing. What more do you want from me?!?Awww![]()

There isnt anything tracking US sales of anime is there? I highly doubt it but it would be VERY interesting to see what works over here.
That's equivalent to asking "Which drove you less insane?"
Is it just me, or is Deadman Wonderland somewhat crap?
I didn't mean to say that there aren't any romantic implications at all in these relationships, just that they shouldn't be looked at like they're a confessed couple.This is kind of like reading about how Mahouka was not about incest.
