He didn't link to a translation of the entire chapter or scene. The link Fencedude provided should go directly to a picture with the line from the novels that he was referring to. If you're not seeing the picture.... I"m not sure what's going on. Maybe you need a twitter account to actually see it? If not, then I don't know.


I'm using a phone to access the Net right now. Maybe that's why.

I can't find the sex scene. All I see are Fencedude's tweets about KoiChoco and Nakaimo.


Just look up "Sword Art Online Chapter 16.5" on google, it should be the first result...

I found it (Google actually auto-completes it as one of the top suggestions, lol).

Oh my gosh. What is glopping. Well, fan translators of LNs do their best...

And is it just me or does anyone find that sudden exposition about the game mechanics right in the middle of sexing very uncomfortable intimacy with the game? "Hi, I am the Evil Game Master, I have designed a game to kill you, and also designed your most intimate moments."

Yeah... they really programmed that into the game? That's some virtual reality.

So the joke was to blindside people by allowing them to stumble into something they may not want to see?


No. Please explain how anyone was blindsided by anything.


It was presented as a joke that was ruined by explaining what the topic was. Where else does it go if not to draw someone in without knowing what they are getting into?
ie.
SAO?
chapt 16.5?
google google google
ah, here we are
WTF!

I'm only guessing, because I didn't get it. Which apparently means that I too lack reading comprehension.

Are you saying that in Japan parents are fine with letting their young children watch late night anime?


Not otaku stuff, but he listed shounen stuff. Stuff like Kaleido Star, Fullmetal Alchemist, Naruto, Yu-Gi-Oh, One Piece, Fairy Tail and all them are for kids in Japan... though in the US people do try to say they're 'adult' and stuff due to their content being not inline with American kids shows.

The thing that made the least amount of sense was the "two years" comment.

Like...what. spoiler[I'm pretty sure the testicles automatically destroy sperm after a while.]

For me as well. Did they actually put in a meter to measure build up? I guess so.

I have to admit, my interest in Panty & Stocking is purely out of a desire to hear Monica Rial say dirty things.

Well, and some of the visuals.

It might be just me, but Fullmetal Alchemist has stuff that kids would not easily digest. Not to mention giant boobs in One Piece. I am not a Puritan, but if I had kids, I would not let them watch anime (even if it was shounen) before their 13th or 14th birthday.

And these "U.S. people" you mention, do they even know what anime is to even give a crap about it?
