Well, I'm mostly saying "Don't blame Puni Puni Poemy. It's a cartoon. It didn't do anything, so don't try to start some hidden boycott on the show." That seems to be happening with a few of the "Well, based on this, I'm not going to watch this hilarious anime" comments.
Maybe I don't understand. Nyoro~n.


Hidden boycott, WTF? No one said ANYTHING about protesting the show, some people just mentioned they might be sensitive/not approve of the implied scene. No one is trying to get your beloved show banned or anything. Sheez! Not everyone has to all love and watch the same titles as everyone else...

That's very true, but it's an 18 in the UK and I'd guess a similar certification elsewhere...

I said don't start one. Good god, you people are far too easily offended. No wonder.

As far as I know it's 17 up over here. Really though, if they'd messed it up a little more they could have made it a hentai. I thought the yuri reference was dumb too.

Considering the reference (Card Captor Sakura), I'd say the yuri was perfectly executed.

Oh, so that's where it's from. Missed that one. Saw PPP before I read CCS.

Yeah, it's making fun of the relationship between Sakura and Tomoyo.

K's dialogue (edited a little):

"This is what you guys want, right? Let's hear if for sleaze! Grope them! Tie them up! Hit them! This is culture!"

It then goes into the girls moaning and crying.

While I can see where I got the idea that there was a point being made with regard to the ever-increasing problem of over-stimulation in our society, I now think I was reading more into it then there actually was.


I'm pretty sure there was a "stick things inside them" line, but it could be a difference between sub vs. dub.

Either way, he doesn't actually say "let's rape them". So while he sexually abused them, whether or not they were actually raped is left a bit vague.

Um.. okay. Rolling Eyes If I'm easily offended then you're insanely paranoid. To each his own, I guess.

The thread is getting close to trolling at this point so I suggest people start making more intelligent posts and stop with any insults. Unless of course your goal is to piss off the mods, not a smart idea though.

I personally think the thread is done. No, she wasn't raped. There. Thread over. Requesting lock.

She was sitting in a cage the last time I looked. It's just that the humor trying to be presented really flopped, so no. Yeah, I agree, this thing is done.
