Toonami going to air KlK?
I really hope you're not trying to downplay the fact that an 18 year old girl in high school got molested by her mother as 'consensual' because that would be a pretty messed up line of reasoning. It was rape, no quotation marks needed. Just because Satsuki didn't fight back against an authority figure that she trusted and has a blood bond to doesn't make it ok.
It's not a different beast, sexual abuse is sexual abuse and that topic is extremely upsetting to me. I'd rather it not be portrayed at all.
1) Spoiler tags
2)If Satsuki is 18 (I honestly have no idea what her age is supposed to be by that point, and considering nobody looks or acts like their age in anime anyway it's a completely irrelevant point), then what's the problem beyond being just kind of gross? Her mother wasn't "an authority figure she trusted," she fucking hated her, didn't trust her in the slightest bit, AND she knew exactly what was going to happen. You're applying characterization to Satsuki here that wasn't in the show. In fact, the show was fairly direct about making it clear that this was something that Satsuki was a completely complicit and willing participant in (at least at this point).
The only way it becomes rape/molestation is if this is something that has been going on for a long time and, thus, began in an abusive manner. To be fair, there is the implication that that may well be the case, considering everything else we know about Ragyo, but as far as I can remember this is never definitively stated. All we really know is that Ragyo had been using her daughters for life fiber experimentation from a very young age. Which is really just all kinds of abuse, not (just) sexual.

Yeah. Memorial Day delay.Oh right, we'll get the rating Wednesday instead of today, huh? Ratings are probably definitely going to take a hit because of the holiday. Too bad. I was thinking dragon ball Z might trigger some higher ratings. Guess we'll see.
Save her from herself by burning her coupons.I hope you don't think this is too off-topic, but ToonamiGAF is my second home on the internet so I hope you'll hear me out a bit. My mom's birthday is coming up and I can't decide on what to get for her. Here's the deal: she recently got into extreme couponing. You know, binders and plastic sleeves for coupons and stacking coupons and stuff. She's really into it. And she told me that the only thing she needs to go to the next level of couponing is a printer so she can print online coupons instead of having to go to her friend's house to get them. So, I was thinking I could buy her a small printer so that she could go nuts. The thing is, to me that would be the equivalent of getting a kid some socks for his birthday. Sure, it is technically something useful but it's also a boring ass gift. Do you guys think I should go for it or should I get her something cooler like a movie or a new watch or something? I'd really rather not end up like the dude from Father of the Bride when he got his fiancee a juicer.

get her a printer
but gift wrap it in roses
Hrm. You guys make some compelling arguments. But other than the printer I have no thoughts on what to get for her. Her hobbies include watching television and watching television.

How'd you get so romantic?

I was also thinking of something along these lines.Get the printer, throw in a movie if you can afford it.
It's too close to her birthday for that. She'll know something's up.I avoid all this by subtly asking people what they want through proxies and/or so far in advance they eventually forget they ever told me.
I dont think she's technologically proficient enough for a tablet. I tried explaining to her how to use the Netflix on the PS3 and she got mad at me when she didn't get it. lolGo back to my "does she own a tablet" question, if she doesn't (and she likes watching TV) tablet would still be a nice gift for her to watch stuff on the go.

Does she watch that show "Extreme Couponing"? Maybe if that's on DVD or available for download, could get that. Though might give her ideas on further couponing.Hrm.

I see nothing wrong with a printer as a gift. My family is practical with gifts so if it's something we want and need we prefer that over something sentimental and less useful.
We're veering way off-topic here so...can anyone talk about how different Kai is from the old DBZ? I hardly remember the original so I'm not sure if I'll even notice. New voice cast, right?
alternatively get her a 3d printer that prints out those coupon machines that are at the stores.
