How much further can the Japanese stoop to losing touch with reality?

Well Kadmos, Japan's not the only one suffering from a declining population. Most of the countries in Asia are suffering from low birthrate (2 countries I know suffer lower birthrate then Japan, but I do find Japan's aging population to be very bad from what I was told) and dating sims and VR headset has nothing to do with those.

BotsNew isn't compatible with breast-grabbing or lap pillow accessories, yet.

Oh shit. I guess we know what's coming next. Yup, more plummeting birth rates! Laughing

Man, I'm so torn over this. One side of me is hoping that they never put existing female characters of popular franchises into compatibility with this, while my other side is saying, "Give. Me. One. RIGHT NOW!!"

I think the latter has a slight edge.

Well this might be the way I could date Aiko Takamori and Sae Kobayakawa in real life.

On the one hand - it's progress in technology. And that's is always good,
On the other hand - it's progress in technology. And that's scary.
