Everything is sexualized in society lately, and that could be fine if there were less sexual taboos... but that it's not the case unfortunately. It takes just a little knowledge about uncommon sexual practices irl to be looked as a freak and be avoided, while normal people spend their time talking about vaginas, breasts, asses and penises... it's kind of ironic but extremely irritating as well; and that of course is reflected on anime as well, or at least on how they're seen.

Can Miyu really be liked as a person, instead of as a character who makes stuff happen? She's, like, the villain of the story.

Oh! This explains why people hate pedophiles, not child molesters.

she's voiced by one of the best seiyuu out there, so obviously everything is in order, and she's likeable no matter if she's a villain or not :p.
And in a slice of life you don't really have a villain or someone who make 'stuff happen" anyway x).

I've participated in a number of threads covering this sort of topic lately, so I feel I'm being redundant in doing so again. In short, I don't think you can really fully separate what sexually attracts you in an anime character, and what sexually attracts you in real life.

As a brief example, in the previous thread I was in on this topic, one user said that they like loli and that they don't think there is anything wrong with fapping to pictures of naked children. 😖

As a child, Miyu will be easily liked, I mean all child are like that right? Adorable, mischievous and innocent... Yeah, those eyes, gleaming with not a single knowledge about the real world...

Although, if you ask me, Miyu, in real life scenerio is just a snotty brat who's been spoiled real good... And, I'd agree that she's like the "villian" of the story, but it always happens in a funny way, so... Nothing really matters, I find all of the characters cute...

guys, just because they like something, doesn't mean they want fuck it... WTH?

i love moe, i love kids in anime, i found cute things are cute... but doesn't mean i want to have sex with it... so does character in series... so i don't understant how some series/character in series oftenly got this insult when it has nothing to do with it as long you are the one that not make it so.


Many seemingly innocuous moe and "cute girls doing cute things" shows are purposefully designed around the assumption that the viewer (whether they're conscious of it or not) does want to have sex with one of the characters. Moe is often characterized as being a successful phenomenon at least partially because it's loaded with content crafted to prey on certain aspects of male psychosexuality (see Clannad, etc). So, while you didn't mention a specific anime, and generalizations are destined to be wrong in at least some cases, I could hardly blame anyone for leveling that "insult" at the general idea of moe.

Anime is both a business and an artistic medium, and it's outright naive to believe that the products of either businesses or artists are organically presented to you and that their content is only "what you make it." Of course there are going to be undertones in them. Whether those undertones were perceived by you and whether they affected your impression of a specific show? Nobody can really say for sure, so I dunno how much attention I'd pay to anyone calling you out about liking cute girls doing cute things, and I understand your frustration about other people reducing your genuine enjoyment of something to "lol he wants to fuck cartoons," but you should at least be somewhat aware of the context surrounding what you're staring at.

the problem is we don't know anything about the except the author said so... and i don't think any author want to be frontal about it except some manga author purposefully make doujin out of his own series, which very rare case, like cool-kyu-shinja... let aside moe, even plenty ecchi series writen by stright female... so "want to have sex" hass no base other than blurry assumption and fallacies by it self especially when you critic a series... kodomo no jikan for example...

anime is idealized medium to begin with... and it's not special with moe... EVERYTHING is idealized to make it more appeal to viewer...
since it's also here, can we talking about shoujo stereotype? does that every men always created like female reader want to have sex with it? and every relationship in series alwasy about womenized male character when it manga reader imagine have sex with it when being abused, so every character on it is unrealistic?
that kind of critics is absurd as fuck...

I think this topic is mostly about people being called pedos for liking loli and therefore another loli topic. These are getting sneakier and sneakier.
if you talking about ecchi with lolicon in it, that's fine... but when it starting to spawn in series that has 0 sexual intent, just normal relationship between adult and minors, that's starting to get annoying... (i starting make this thread because reading some disgusting coment in shirogane no nina)

did people can't differentiate many kind relationship anymore? will every relationship will generelized as sex partner?

Hello there. Yes, as an anime fan who likes lolis (both in the "she's so cute!" meaning, and in the "this H-doujin is so hot!" meaning), I had to think (and research) about questions like child porn, pedophilia and child sexual abuse. My answers to many questions are unconventional (and I am very much against groupthink), so there is no surprise many people disagree with my answers to these questions.
Here, have some numbers to think about: http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Pedophilia#Abnormality

The problem is, there is a dozen reasons one can watch a cute girls doing cute things show. But a some people seem to fixate on sexual attraction to the characters.

"We don't know anything except what the author said" makes fiction sound deceptively simple. Fiction can, again, be laden with subtext, i.e. themes or ideas which the author is trying to convey without saying them directly. Surely you understand that an author can set out to make a work with the intent to, say, make you cry without actually including a panel that says "this part is sad. You should begin crying now," no? So what prevents you from admitting that an author could set out to make a work with the intent to have it subtly appeal to sexuality even if it doesn't explicitly contain sex or a disclaimer reading "you should wank to this?"

no base other than blurry assumption and fallacies by it self especially when you critic a series... kodomo no jikan for example...


I specifically said that I was generalizing and that my statement does not apply to every series which could conceivably be labeled "moe," and, even if I hadn't, it should pretty much go without saying that every work of fiction is to be judged on its own merit.

anime is idealized medium to begin with... and it's not special with moe... EVERYTHING is idealized to make it more appeal to viewer...


I didn't say moe is "idealized," although that's also true. Idealized is "that woman's boobs could not actually exist." Moe as a phenomenon is rooted in psychology that extends wayyyyy beyond that, like "men have a psychological urge to both nurture and destroy perceived innocence, so they'll get double the mileage out of a character whose innocence they can vicariously cultivate while they're onscreen but whom they can imagine themselves fucking later." Again, I clearly am not saying that everyone who ever authored or enjoyed moe did so for such a reason, as that would be dumb. Yet ignoring the possibility that some moe functions because of devices like these is just willful ignorance.

except i already give my example...


Sorry, that's definitely my bad. I don't always read every reply and sometimes just speak directly to the original post. I haven't seen that series, so I can't comment on that particular situation.

the problem is when those undertones is not more than your own dellusion filtered view, and they are the one that doesn't look at context and jumping to "have sex" assumption...


It is a real problem when people make cursory assumptions that lead them to conclusions which are, as you say, based in delusion. People may or not be making that mistake with specific moe series. But you don't have the authority to state that everyone else is always just being delusional and your point of view vis-a-vis sexuality in moe is always the correct one in any given scenario.

sorry for my bad english and if there is a word that offend you btw


Your English is passable :) MAL has lots of participants who use English as a second or third language (and lots of native English speakers who aren't great at it). Plus, I can be a little long-winded, so I'm sure it's not easy for you to read all of this crap either.

Lastly, I wouldn't say I was "offended" by anything you said, but you seem to have a really defensive and, if I can speak plainly, bad attitude in general. It's understandable when people are saying insulting things about you, but not only did I not say anything insulting about you, I told you that the people who were insulting you were being silly and that at least some of your frustrations were valid. I made observations, not value judgments, and spoke in pretty general terms which should have made it clear that I was just speaking my piece about moe, not going after you or any specific thing that you like. Heck, I didn't even say "sexual undertones in moe are bad," I just said "some moe has sexual undertones and it couldn't hurt to be aware of that." Yet you still managed to be kinda cagey and sarcastic in your response. I've nothing against you, in fact I rather appreciate your reply, it's just that unwarranted defensiveness is not a good look on anybody. If you actually care about communicating with people (which I can only assume you do, since you made this topic) you should maybe check your tone a little bit. Sorry if I can be a little curt myself at times; I am just trying to articulate myself as well as possible, and I intend no harm.

Peace!

[antiamericanism] That's because there are too many people from america on these forums. In america, there is only one real feeling - sexual desire.
Friendship? Actually a pretext to get into his/her pants.
Parental love? Just a cover for pedophilia.
Faith? A cover for pedophilia too.
Greed? Just a way to increase one's status to appeal to more women.
Anger? Just a pretext to rape their women.
and so on.
They just cannot conceive of any feeling that is not sexual in nature.
[/antiamericanism][/quote]

I'm also from America and I hate that this is a thing. The way that every last goddamn thing has to be sex related or have some sexual appeal to it is downright disgusting. I don't wanna meet someone at a bar and have sex with them. I wanna get to know someone and build a long lasting relationship before it gets to that point. There are so many things that are more important than lust and sex, yet in America it seems like priority number one for everyone. Those things should be saved and treasured, like a bottle of rare wine that you only drink on special occasions. All of the entertainment industry is downright plagued by it. I can't watch a good comedy movie without 75% of the jokes being sex related and I hate it. It's also one of the reasons I'm not fond of most fanservice/ecchi anime. The anime with good stories have shown me multiple different perspectives on the world and I've decided that sex doesn't really matter that much. The fact that all my peers are rushing to do it just shows how immature and thoughtless they really are.

you can like cute things whatever reason you have, but if it's innapoipriate, you can save it your self... the problem is when you judge dislike a series, and using sexual sensitivity to justify it when it exagrating and unproven...

I agree. That's why I think we should point out instances where this legitimately occurs in fiction: because its popularity perpetuates the idea that such attitudes are okay when in reality they're shitty and destructive.

You're right that not every series has some kind of sexual intent, though, and wrongfully criticizing a given series for that reason is just as bad as wrongfully criticizing it for any other reason.

Thanks for the discussion, it was fun.

It's like this because the concept of moe and having this nurturing feeling towards something while still not wanting to do anything sexual with it is pretty much unheard of outside of anime and other things in Japan.

i am not asexual, i read loli doujin from time to time (but that's not my fetish, my fetish is another but sometimes have loli's in it, and i have pretty wide range for visual appereance so i don't mind, age is only numbers in fiction anyways), and i does think of it.. but the series it self and what it tell is not and i can differentiate it... so, i don't understand why they critize it based their imagination and blamming the series for it...

I agree. That's why I think we should point out instances where this legitimately occurs in fiction: because its popularity perpetuates the idea that such attitudes are okay when in reality they're shitty and destructive.

See! thats it exactly.
they havent read that or seen that anime. all they know bcoz you said it yourself, it has lil girls in it.
And the pppl who critisize are all fucked up in their own heads. and closet pedos. so all they see is that. and its their own shame that compels to say something against it.
you get criticized and called a pedo bcoz those ppl think everyone who watches lil girls is a pedo, like themselves.
or they are just trolling/baiting you to rile you up.

Because some people are perverted and think that if you like cute things then you are perverted too .

I am a girl, I like cute girls in Anime and manga because they make the anime/manga more cute but it doesn´t mean that I like girls in general xD I like boys and LEVI IS LIFE XD

I know its odd @Kuma but some people do just watch anime for their own sexual/romantic gratification. I cant understand it either, probs cuz im actually autistic. Nothing against people who do this, i just find it odd to be attracted to a simulacrum of a woman instead of the real thing.

I think it depends on how well your relationships with your preferred gender go. And anime girls are not only attractive physically, they have very likeable personalities too, something that is hard to find in real world.

For best results, an anime should have both cute girls and cute boys.
By the way, what anime with cute boys are you talking about?

Definition of "love": an intense feeling of deep affection




Definisi love
nomina
an intense feeling of deep affection.
"babies fill parents with intense feelings of love"

so, love is sexual lust now?

what is love?

Well babies are a product of "love" along with many accounts of incest involving brothers loving sisters and mothers loving sons. Don't you watch hentai?

What is love?
Baby don't hurt me
Don't hurt me

Kids, pets and family are all real things. Living, breathings things. A cartoon or video game character isn't. So it's difficult for most people to understand having a feeling of affection, both sexual and not sexual, towards something that isn't even real.

Most people who assert such a claim probably read a wikipedia article on psychology, or watched a few Khan Academy videos on the matter.

Saying that if someone likes moe, then it's because they want to have sex with one or several of the characters (whether they know it or not) is such a gross oversimplification that it hurts.

In Freudian psychology? Maybe.
(for those who didn't take any psychology courses, Freud had quite a dirty mind, and much of his work analyzes everything as some kind of sexual desire)

Yep. That reminds me of particular joke in Welcome to the NHK that would probably go over some people's heads if they don't have any knowledge of psychology. They would probably be wondering why Misaki is dodging the subject of interpreting Sato's dream after he describes it to her.

Explain. Not many people connect with fictional characters on that level to the point where they get near obsessive like a lot of people do with their waifus and lolis. I'm not saying it's a bad thing, I'm just saying it's not common.

I assure you that people feel sexual attraction towards western cartoon characters too. Rule 34 exists for a reason.
But I agree, I should not be hard for people to feel non-sexual attraction to characters - parental feelings, wanting to have a friend like that, and any other kind of feeling.
