So yeah, my friend is like "Yeah, I don't like anime because it's full of 'waifus' that you'd go to jail if you actually had them as your waifu, and all of the fans are like "Huehuehue, 13 year old girls awwyeah.'"
But from what I've seen on MAL, this doesn't seem too far-fetched a belief. Opinions?

I guess he's right, for now on I think so

I bet your friend also uses phrases like 'real music'. Tell him his no-fun mentality won't necessarily produce great philosophical works.

He does, but he's not a philosophical guy.

I don't know if this phrase is bait or not, but it's really hilarious, to be honest.

Honestly, he was trolling me, but I couldn't find it in myself to deny that a significant amount of anime contains underaged waifus.

I like anime in part because it's full of lovable girls. That's not all there is to anime, but that's a valid form of appeal. It surely gives it an edge over the western ugliness like Ren and Stumpy that they started to show on TV when I was a teenager, so my transition to anime is not surprising.

I would be fine if the girls were closer to my age, say 25+ years old, but many of the younger fans would not appreciate that.

But your friend's statement is hypocritical. Your western movies have good-looking women too, even in the roles that don't need them to be good-looking. And they have teenage girls and children too, all 3d and picked for their good looks.

It's not remotely hypocritical lol. Sure, Hollywood is all about good looks, but there's nothing equivalent to loli "ecchi" anime.

It's obviously not all, but there are a lot of pedos among anime fans. Anime is the only thing I can think of where that's considered acceptable. In American shows, there's rarely any fan service with underage girls. In anime, there almost always is. It's pretty weird when you think about it.

I think the friend is just running his mouth, but it's true.
How do you define a Waifu?
I just like for example Lucy from Elfenlied and Light from Deathnote (Yeah I know, total clichée series/mangas) and Tanya from Youjo Senki (Yeah I know, as a German I should feel bad about WW1) as well as the red-head from Steins;Gate but I don't have dakimakuras of them, nor do I see them as a living thing.

I just like the characters and using them as wallpapers or profile pictures (like here) and watch their animes. I can partly identify with them, so what?

Lucy is kinda a loli, and Tanya the Evil definitly is. So what?
They are damn drawn characters, it's a fantasy story, if they can't differ reality from fantasy, your friends are rather foolish.

Just tell them about the people that not all anime fans are Lolicons (like in the actual sense) and in fact if anything, a lot of people seem Anti-Loli.

As for the issue regarding the sexualization of minors in general, it's just a cultural thing for better or for worse. I wouldn't go as far as Vice New's report on enjo-kosai (the part about one guy claiming Japan is the most misogynistic country in the first world especially made me have a love-hate relationship with that report) ,but honestly Americans aren't always angelic either when it comes to teenagers and sex in the media just not the same degree as Japan.

People who take the waifu thing seriously at all, or people that THINK it's meant to be serious are akin to the folks getting mad when people say "Cory in the House is Best Anime"...there is an element of humor here that is being missed.

ANY circle is going to have people who

a) Take things WAY too seriously
b) Have nothing else going on in life
c) Are failing in some life basics (job, hygiene, social skills, etc.)
d) Basically make all the fans of said medium completely and totally ashamed of them


This is true of musicians, comic book fans, movie buffs, craft beer enthusiasts, fitness fanatics, political activists, religious folks, and the list goes WAAAAY on. Judge the medium for what it is, not who the fanbase is. If you like anime, but not the community, then don't participate in the F-ing community events like conventions, forums, etc. REALLY simple lol

There is some seriously questionable stuff within the Japanese entertainment industry, not just anime, and I don't think anyone can deny that much.

Doesn't make us all pedos, of course. Just something to think about.

She's a loli, so therefore you're a pedophile.

duh age doesn't mean anything in fiction like this. If she has a child body, then she is a child.
I like the term Illyacon though.

Pretty sure a lot of people who love Illya are loving her character with no any relation to sexual attraction. *points at Illya thread in HF's subforum as an evidence*

So if liking lolis automatically makes you a pedo, would liking her (see below) make you a pedo? Bear in mind the term is more adherent to age than it is to looks.

Just think about Tanya the Evil from Youjo Senki. It doubles the fun to know that it is a seven to ten years old kid who wipes out the enemy armies.

And still I never had a GF at the same age or younger than me.

So far in my studying of philosophy, it's big fun. It means rational, challenging and engaging discussions. One way to connect to people is these serious conversations.

Fun fact 1: most men are secretly ph3d0s. There are studies that sample anonymously thousands of men and the general consensus is that men find 14-17yo girls more attractive than any other age group.

Fun fact 2: people love to pretend like they're not ph3d0s, but an average american woman loses virginity at 17.3yo, while an average american man loses it at 17.0yo. This is the average, so it's safe to assume at least a third of the population loses their v-card at 16 or younger. Conclusion? Most people alive are ph3d0s.
