I'm not homophobic at all and even I am cringing at these scenes. I can't believe people are actually defending this.

The make out scenes seemed highly forced and cheesy. Plus the yaoi and yuri shit came out unexpectedly how else do you think viewers were to react? Replace this with regular heterosexual relationships and I would still be cringing at the fact that these came out of no where.

If the scenes were actually done well and fit into the plot better I might actually enjoy it.

I just hope the rest of the anime is good after this episode.

it is actually part of the plot, since the genetic was changed. Because you need smth to deal with stress instead of aggresivity and sports and stuff, you have early sexuality in this anime ^^ and you dont care about the actuall gender

Oh i was well aware of the fact that the society used sexual activity as their stress relief and that their society probably accepts homosexuality as a way of birth control.
But I also remember the main character specifically stating that humans aren't bonobos and decided not to have sex with that one guy on the tree.

Despite this I still feel that the yuri/yaoi scenes were a bit unnecessary. I understand that the goal was to show the viewers that this society's view on sexuality differ greatly from our own. I also understand that they use it as a tool when faced with stress..But at this point it appeared more like experimentation rather than a tool for stress relief. No dire situations were occurring in their lives at this time. When things do start to get serious later on in the show they never resort to these sexual acts again.


Overall anime is great though so to anyone that didn't like this episode I can assure you that there are no more yaoi/yuri scenes.

I find this kinda odd considering you have a scantily clad, sexually suggestive 16 (or was she 14? I can't remember exactly) year old Yoko as your list background picture. Plus you've seemed to like quite a few series that have both a) underage fanservice (which this isn't) and b) underage people in relationships.

Yet another homophobe it seems.

the amount of homophobia in this thread is very surprising. maybe it's because everyone who didn't bat an eye at that scene like me didn't bother coming here. but seriously. are we still that homophobic that it actually bothers people to watch a 5 second anime scene of guys kissing? as a straight male i can't comprehend how that bothers anyone.

also gonna add that showing the bond between satoru and shun and saki and maria does become important later in the story and is not at all just thrown in there. you wouldn't understand until you watch the rest but it is important to note that satoru loves shun in more than a childhood friend way later in the story. same with saki and maria.

Despite trying to be like a bonobo society, I find it hard to believe that almost all 100% of studends are Haado-Gei.

Find it even funnier how all the guys before me scream "homophobic" like some retards, only because people see that there isn't any logic behind the fact that the majority were gay, and there was only 1 straight guy. But what you gonna do, liberals being liberals, not their fault they're being brainwashed from 1st grade :/

I think the goal was to encourage homosexual relationships because then they wouldn't have to deal with teenage pregnancy and whatnot.

It's exactly as Laraso said. It's to stop teenage pregnancy's, the majority then become heterosexual once they've grown up.

I like the part where you attempt to insult people for not finding anything wrong with the homosexual parts or defending them against clearly homophobic people by going HURR DURR LIBERALS DUMB HURR DURR. It's especially ironic considering how most conservatives are actually brainwashed to believe in their religion for their entire lives.

Reality has a well-known liberal bias.

this episode is extremely uncomfortable

Why do it? Shock value? I cant think of anything aside from that. I dont like gays, and I especially dont like gay shit being forced on me.

I dont like how the guy (forgot his name) is copying everything Shun does now. What a bitch. I just started to like the guy in episodes 5-7 and now he's a codependant copycat. Great. Well fuck him. I hope he dies by the time this show's over

Damn, that yuri scene should have been longer. :/ I hope there will be another one.

It's strange that everyone in school is homosexual. Although it was said that they can vent off their stress through sex but it doesn't neccessarily mean that except for one guy everyone turns gay, does it? I smell fanservice.


I'm interested in what happened between Shun and that masked guy.

I'm sure anyone who have his OWN intellect wont become gay because of any kind of propaganda, even children subconsciously like better opposite sex. (Like it was shown in anime protective Satoru, romantic Shun etc.)
And they act like that even though homo behaviours were very strong promoted.
Not to mention, it was not homosexuality in full word meaning, they were playing with their bodies as long as it wasnt restricted (I'm not saying restriction is something bad), trying some homo, something new.

To put it simple, to become homosexuality you have to posses predispositions, to try some homo/bi it's only matter of choise. And any stupid propaganda wont change it.
You may not like other people homosexulality, but it's theirs buissness not yours.

[Unless of course they french kiss in front of you and your family or run over city naked (thats rather well paid activists), thats simple lack of culture and boorishness( have nothing to cultural homosexuality), which apply to every man but thats diffrent, yet worse dilema of our society]

I dont think you should take care about childlish inlulsts like homophobe which were popularised in society by retarded politics in their political correction shows.

Calling someone homophobe became stupidly trendy nowadays and simply putting something different than good opinion about it mekes you homphobe instantly.
It is simply overused although word is harsh and apply to someone who idk stalk or slender homosexuals.

As long as we were supposed to talk and give opinion on what pleased us and what not in the anime, it is perfectly fine.
My opinion is for example that some body attractions are ok, as long as they grow out of this and as long as author is paying more attention to hetero (much more interesting) pairs such as Mamoru&Maria or Saki&Satoru.

Then you have no idea what the word actually means. You also have no idea what the term "politically correct" actually means and are simply using it as the modern right-wing buzz word slur.

As long as we are talking about relationships your request is imposiible to accomplish and really narrow minded since you try to compare two diffrent things.

If it comes to stricte people I can of course replace it:

"Calling someone *black*phobe became stupidly trendy nowadays and simply putting something different than good opinion about *black people* makes you *black*phobe instantly.
It is simply overused although word is harsh and apply to someone who idk stalk or slender *black people*."

I'm surprised so much of the discussion centers around the sexual elements. We were told some chapters ago that this society had modified itself so that any conflict resolution centered around sex/love. So it's not surprising that at age 14 their hormones send them into overdrive.

All throughout the episode I was wondering "what the hell happened when they returned?" so I would have gone bananas if they hadn't answered that question. Their society scares me is all I have to say after getting our answer.

About my only complaints are that the animation was so poor for the most part of this episode and the most powerful TK user actually sneaked a peek up beautiful Maria's skirt. That was a bit unnecessary I thought.
