Blast it all... I think this may be a better pun than my CurryKareColle concept involving anthropomorphized types of curry as boyfriends (Keema curry is exotic but gentle, beef curry the solid breadwinner type, and so forth).

I still think my idea is a lot more marketable, though. Imagine the franchised air fresheners, curry packets, dakimakura infused with capsicum so that your skin actually burns as you lie with your spicy lover... (I've even drafted a list of phrases ikemen seiyuu can record for the CDs, such as "You naughty girl! You've gotten brown on your beautiful white skin. But I don't dislike naughty girls..." and "Rice or bread? It's your choice, Mistress...")

I keep on trying to sell this, but for some reason the angel investor's just never appeared...

In the game, players interact with female anthropomorphized bacteria. Instead of asking users to pay money in exchange for cards of girls, the app takes information about the users stool, including width, color, and shape.

And so the Bristol Stool Scale has finally crossed over into the domain of anime. With each passing day, our world grows smaller yet richer.

urm...well despite saying they're not anthropomorphised crap, it's inevitable that gut bacteria is on said crap. Which, now that I think about it, would make for a disgusting Aug game.

It reminds people that "UnColle is not a game about anthropomorphized poop!


That's what I expecting when I started reading this article, and even though that isn't what this is, i'm sure it's coming.

What will Japan turn into moe anime girls next? I'm legitimately terrified.

You know, I'm pretty desensitized to a lot of weird otaku things but...

This just makes me go "what the fudge japan, seriously?"

Yeah, I wasn't even phased by the bacteria as cute girls. It was was the idea of unlocking cards by providing information about your poop that gave me pause.

This anthropomorphization variety is about as low as you can go. Seriously, like they are not running out of ideas to get even more absurd and now we have this.
