I like that a grown woman fully clothed is considered creepy compared to ones of middle school girls in their underwear and fingering themselves. We live in an odd otaku world.

It's her body, her choice, but it would really freak me out to have my body on a bunch of pillows.

... the that check comes in the mail and keeps coming in the mail and everything seems way less freaky.

Yeah, I was expecting her to be in lingerie, or otherwise scantily-clad. Her being fully clothed seems a bit tame, and not creepy at all.

I'm actually surprised that more seiyuu don't do this. Could be a great money-spinner.

Yeah well but they are real girls, but not fake 2-D drawn animated girls. Well sure a guy having a poster pin-up of Ursula Andress in her bikini from Dr. No is not gross because she's a real girl and she's hot back in the 1960's. But having a poster of 2-D animated drawn girl just make a person look like they're detached from reality.

Not enough research into pillow fertility methods and 2-D to 3-D transformation systems.
