Seriously I really never understood why they added the "LOOK AT ME BIG BROTHER" to Ichigo's youngest sister post time skip. I get that incest stuff is popular in Japan but still...

I wouldn't say incest is popular in Japan, just that they have different cultural norms which make the topic less taboo. I'm no expert on Japanese culture though, just throwing a thought. I'm sure somebody in this thread is way more knowledgeable than I on this subject; could be an interesting topic to discuss.

What actually happened with Nel?

She was miles better than Orihime's tired-tropey damsel in distress crying ass

Pretty sure she's just shooting the shit back in Hueco Mundo. I expected her to show up during the battle for karakura town but nope, Kubo forget this awesome character existed.
 
OnePieceGAF takeover?

SOON.

In less than three hours no one in this thread will be able to forget about her...

Who?
:p

Japan hates incest, but the otakus who buy expensive figures and seasonal anime blurays love it.

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
Crystal is bi-weekly and taking an entire year to cover the Queen Beryl arc, doubt it'll come to Toonami anytime soon.

Plus, Uncut Sailor Moon is 200 episodes long. That's at least 4 years of time slots right there.

I've been meaning to get on the 'Sailor Moon Mondays' bandwagon and will be watching the uncut episodes (I think there's 8?) up on hulu this weekend. We could set up an irc chat and power through them if you're interested.

That sounds like an interesting idea (a group stream might be better if the logistics work at all) but I've got no time for that within the next week. It's def an idea we should keep in mind though.


Well that answers some questions I had earlier

Up all night to get Dandy

Also, remastered or not, Sailor Moon in its current from looks like a TV Anime from 1992 and is probably "too ugly" for the block in its current state.
 
Why is incest anime usually big brother-little sister anyways?

No idea but kayos and gmn bring up good points. I do wonder though if this laissez-faire attitude towards incest only exists within a small bubble that we are over exposed to as anime fans, or if this fetish is widespread. I don't watch any Japanese television programming outside of anime so I'm curious to know if you see this touched upon in live-action shows or film.
