Here are the links to two pictures of Asuna's nipples for those interested; I am frankly more impressed by her butt. Needless to say they are NSFW. And I second wanting to see Suguha's nipples instead.

I was amused when I saw this and recalled it wasn't the first article on ANN regarding Asuna's nipple (and I believe not even the second).

Then I looked at the pics only to find out all the interest was not even about a full on view from the front.

I guess the more people are denied something, the more excited they get when it is finally granted to them.

You know you're not the target audience when all you can think is "I don't think that nipple is anatomically correct". Laughing

actually the real news is that the rental confirms alicization project next.


The tease for Alicization was already in the theatrical version of the movie earlier this year.

And thus thousands of virgins who have never discovered the Internet went into hysterics.

So let me get this straight--they show 1 nipple, in partial view, from the side, for about a second, and fans go wild?
Heck, most male characters in anime don't even have nipples! (Canonically)! Razz

Where was the outrage when they shamelessly showed tits in Strike Witches?
(At least in the DVD versions, anyway)

I'm assuming you mean this sarcastically, but in case you don't. . .

It's simple: SW was a fan service series to the core with a target audience that was pretty much purely hard-core otaku. SAO isn't (at least not in the prurient sense, anyway) and has a broader audience.

While I'm not disappointed that the bonus service is there, it definitely wasn't something that was needed, either.

The responses seem to be ranging more between "celebration" and "confusion" than outrage.

Weren't there nipples on characters way back in the very mainstream Ranma 1/2 and Inuyasha manga?

@Agent355

Right at the beginning of Ranma 1/2 there is a scene where Akane walks in on Ranma in the bath. You see her whole chest and Ranma's ass. It is in the anime as well. Also Ranma girl type had a tendency to run around topless.

Lets not forget the completely random and pointless shower scene and the broken sink scene from First Gundam.

Random boobs were super common back in the day but we've become bigger prudes and it's a bigger deal when it happens now.
