Yep. If you rescind that comment and edit it out of that particular Shelf Life article, replacing it with whatever you see fit or just eliminating that sentence altogether, then I will get off your case about that. Because practically everything else is opinion in that review, and I have been on the internet long enough to know that opinion is not something that should ever be argued.

Also, just in case you were unclear, the illustrator for the Akikan light novels has her own ties to porn. She was an artist for Navel and was involved with drawing many erotic scenes featuring lolita characters.

Actually, if you go and research the majority of the ecchi series, you'll find that a large amount of people are or were involved with some sort of erotic content. Which is why the realization that GSG had characters that were from a very early erotic prototype doesn't really phase me. The only difference is that the creator saw how he could make the story work without any sort of eroticism whatsoever.

It may even further shock you to know that famed director Makoto Shinkai directed the opening animation for that very same visual novel that the GSG creator supplied the character designs for.

So if you want to hound someone about it, hound me. I'm the person making the choice to keep it the way it is.

What makes you think that us hounding you - a person who in the past has proven very trigger happy with the ban button, and who sticks by their writers no matter what the writer has said or done - is going to accomplish anything?

If you're really giving us license to hound you without penalty then I'd be one of the first people to take up your offer, as I still haven't forgotten about Death Note or Fate/Zero (amongst others). But if you're just saying that and your offer is hollow or fake, then I'd be stupid to take it up.

I'm actually genuinely curious to know which one it is.

Trigger happy with the ban button, eh? You realize your behavior was brought to me by other people who then suggested you be banned, right? It wasn't just me saying "this guy's annoying, out he goes"? Maybe you didn't know that.

When did I say "without penalty"? I don't recall saying that.

I like the inherent melodrama in saying "I still haven't forgotten about this!" as though I ran over your dog rather than published an opinion you didn't agree with.

Oh come now, it was implicitly stated. Of course, I had the sense to ask if you were being straight with us; turns out you weren't. No surprise there but I do admit to feeling a little disappointed; hounding you would have been fun.

Comparing a squished canine to a review on a website; stay classy Zac.

I'd have to read the Akikan novels to know if they were porn. But nevermind that, because there's only one severely underaged character in Akikan. Just one pre-pubescent. In Gunslinger Girls, they're all pre-pubescent.

Some girls in Gunslinger Girls do look in the twelve to fourteen range, but others look ten. Just saying.

Akikan is to soft drinks what The Humanoid was to coffee.
