Doesn't anyone feel the least bit embarassed asking for anime such as this?

Then again it's not like you know who the person actually is or their real identity.

Hmm... just how old are you? Trust me, once one gets past puberty (however late in life this may be), it gets a lot less embarassing.

Lord, I could probably think of a dozen subjects that I'd find it more embarassing to ask about than this. For one thing, if I were the original poster, I'd be embarassed at not having been able to spell "outrageously". See, that's something more embarassing than soft porn, right there - bad spelling. Let's be considerate and call it a typo, though.

What exactly IS Azumanga genre-wise anyway?


It's slice-of-life comedy. It's certainly not shoujo, and "loli" & "yuri" aren't really legitimate genres, per se. It's just...a comedy about the daily lives of a bunch of high school girls. That's all.

I knew that. I just wasn't sure how it fit demographically in Japan. I guess it would work next to other shows of relatively similar mood such as Sazae-San and Case Closed.

Miyuki-chan in Wonderland. Why has it taken so long to give this answer?

Plastic Little comes to mind as well Wink

Battle Athletes (tv series and Oav) is another one I recommend.

I'm quite surprised that with the recent yuri / shoujo-ai fever in Japan, only MariMite was mentioned. Confused Check the Wikipedia's entry of yuri; it gives a list of yuri / shoujo-ai titles as follows:

Yuri @ Wikipedia wrote:
2x2=Shinobu-den
Air Master
Azumanga Daioh
Cardcaptor Sakura
Devilman Lady
El-Hazard
Gokujou Seitokai
Kannazuki no Miko
Madlax
Magic Knight Rayearth
Mai-HiME
Maria-sama ga Miteru
Noir
Oniisama e
Read or Die
Revolutionary Girl Utena
Rose of Versailles
Sailor Moon
Yami to B?shi to Hon no Tabibito

Many of them are quite well-hidden and very benign e.g. Azumanga Daioh, Cardcaptor Sakura, and ROD. I'll just introduce the most "tasty" non-hentai title I've watched completely: Kannaduki no Miko. In spoiler[episode 8, Chikane raped Himeko (not shown visually, of course), and when Souma came to the rescue it was too late: Himeko's clothings, including her underwear, were skattered on the floor]. I couldn't believe that it was aired on TV, and I was more surprised that it got licensed in US. Wondering how much editing will it receive. Cool

The manga counterpart was even "juicier": spoiler[in front of the lunar shrine, Chikane licked and then inserted a ritual scepter (not sure about the material; could be either wooden or metallic) forcibly into Himeko's vagina, who's still a virgin]. Poor Himeko. Anime cry


With Geneon's current track record, I can't see it being edited, if it is, their will be an outcry from fans.

Because it was the weekend and I don't have the Internet at home. Long answer is I didn't think it fit what he wanted. What is his definition of "inappropriate"?
