As the title says, I'm just curious.
Didn't expect they would put some yaoi/yuri contents in the anime like that. It's okay if it was just teasers, hints, but ... I think they went a bit too far.
But still, I will keep watching it.

I dropped it. Don't intend to watch a show with guys touching each other. It's a damn shame too, because I really liked the atmosphere and setting before this episode came...

They really went for it in episode 8. That close up of that tongue action was sort of unsettling. Still, despite all that, unless they bombard me with BL/yaoi stuff for the next several episodes, I won't drop this.

Are you kidding me? No way in hell would I drop the anime after seeing episode 8. It far exceeded my expectation about what was going to happen.

Dropping due to BL/GL is rather stupid but understandable.

In the society that is portrayed in this anime, it's normal for this to happen. Of course, I was taken aback too but, if you think about it, it's not completely random. It's a shame to see people drop it even though the writer is trying to convey something about the difference in our society's viewpoints and their's.

Unfortunately, we'll have to wait until they become adults for them the get back to the good old fashion way. If you really like the story then you have put up with that for several episodes.

I've had it on hold since Ep 2 or so, but assuming by the post that it has both Yaoi and Yuri, they'll cancel each other out for me. If only Yuri, then obviously more a reason to watch.

It shouldn't be that bad with Shun gone and Satoru's new guy shouldn't get much screen time since he isn't a main character.

Couple of episodes? The faggotry is gonna permeate every single episode from now to the end. Knowing how much of a critic you are Dragonis, I'm surprised you lasted this long before dropping it.
It will only last until they become adults. From then on it's all hetero stuff. If you want, just skip a few episodes and jump back in when they become adults.

MAL is far from being my primary site for literature, which is why I’ve stopped doing single-chapter updates. Baka-Updates and two French sites are far superior—more detailed, complete, and less restrictive. They're perfect for manga, light novel, and book collectors like me, making the process much less stressful and tiring. -g-

I can't imagine anyone over the age of 20 dropping this because of the yaoi and/or yuri. If you are under that age, this show isn't really aimed at you anyway.

It's lame. If they wanted to make a statement with the 2 dudes, then they've done it. But then to add in the lesbian stuff is just... why? Too much of a coincidence means the writer just wanted to be shocking. Oh well. I'm going to stick with it, but I'm not expecting that much regardless of the homosexuality. The show isn't bad enough overall though. I mean like I dropped Tsuritama on episode 9, if I can't stand a show, I'm not going to force my way through it.

What amuses me is that people are surprised at this episode. They clearly stated how their society is hypersexualised to keep it from collapse, so why would this be a surprise?

Also, from what little I've been able to understand, birth rates are ridiculously low - or highly controlled and regulated - which reinforces the same-sex pairings. Much lower birth rates when you don't have to worry about teen pregnancy.

So no, I didn't drop it. It added to the story because they're showing the hypersexuality that they brought up previously. If anything, it makes me wonder what they have planned for the future episodes, since the story just gets more and more interesting.

I agree with everything you said.
I definitely didn't and wouldn't drop it for something as petty as a homosexuality. If boys are gonna kiss each other and if girls are gonna kiss each other, I think I am mature enough to handle it.

It's so stupid to see how you guys says that you're dropping it because "you're a way to heterosexual yo see two boys kissing"
I mean, seriously, it's as if I stop watching anime just because there are scenes of half-naked women (and it happens A LOT), as a woman, they make me feel uncomfortable, but not because of that I say that the anime is bad and drop it. You are so inmature...

In all honesty those first few minutes really threw me off guard. Looking at the bigger picture though, they laid out the premise for that, well, nicely, I should say. It was surprising sure (had to pause my viewing for a few seconds), but not as random I suppose a good number of viewers might think.

So people disgusted by yaoi have no right to complain is what you're saying?


You have all the rights in the world to complain about whatever. 9988 didn't question your rights but commented that those disgusted enough by two fictional boys kissing to drop an entire show might be better off watching more prudent shows from more tame places.

Or from a less extreme position if you vehemently dislike yaoi so much that any amount of male/male intimate relationship will cause you to drop an entire then you should filter what you watch better to reduce the chances of seeing those kinds of scenes. In the case of this anime if you'd done a little reading before hand you'd never even had to have seen ep8 and save us and yourself a lot of pain.

(Shame Shun had to go though...)

At any rate, yaoi and yuri aren't enough to make me want to drop an anime with a promising plot.

And besides,I can always skip it

This isn't just about yoai, but obviously the writer has an agenda. I can't in fact remember another anime (besides hentai) that showed tongue. They didn't throw that in there just to say whoop-de-doop this is a high school romance.

I live in California so don't care. As long as those scenes served their reasons for being there, then fine by me. Personally, I think it demonstrates what Vhaeraun said,

"They clearly stated how their society is hypersexualised to keep it from collapse, so why would this be a surprise?"

Weirded me out a lot, it seemed out of place. There wasn't any foreshadowing, if anything there was a little saki x shun. The yaoi just came totally out of the blue, and felt a bit unnecessary. I wont drop it though, still interested in seeing where this goes.
It just felt a tad bit to.. extreme
