Kodomo no Jikan
I thought I would be jumping into something similar to Mitsudomoe(which it was) but at times I felt like I was watching borderline loli hentai. Not my proudest completion but the show made me laugh, cry, and cringe(the crying and laughing made it worth).
Here are some quotes from BlobbertMcN's review of the manga
"Imagine you had a friend named Bob. Bob is a great guy, nice, interesting, and you like having conversations with him. He's also a non-active pedophile. What do you think of Bob? Do you disregard all his good points because of this TERRIBLE thing? Or do you continue associating with Bob because those good points outweigh his disgusting side?
This is what I struggle with when thinking about Kodomo no Jinkan, there is a reason why this manga is controversial (And the controversy is what made me want to read it). However, at the same time, it's actually quite well written, well thought out, and brings up some interesting questions."
"~Enjoyment~
I guess I enjoyed it. I mean, all the sexualisation of young girls (Still can't stress that enough) made me feel a bit uncomfortable - and I can't help that they could've done the same manga with less overt sexual imagery. But I guess they wanted it to sell, and the only way was to... sexualize little girls... *sigh*
But still, yeah, I guess I enjoyed it."
I want to read the manga but I'm not down the with whole nude loli thing. Borderline nudity in the anime already made me uncomfortable. So pursuing the rest of the story/extra detail probably isn't worth it.
I completely agree with his point about the controversy, it's actually what made me want to watch it to begin. I found Kodomo no Jikan in a post called 10 taboo anime you wouldn't want to be caught watching or something along those lines.
The picture of the anime had the MC holding up a sign saying "I hope you cream inside me," this coming from a 3rd grader is completely outrageous. If they took this anime and put more emphasis on the jokes and the pranks they pull on their virgin teacher, rather than showing so many sexual scenes, it could have been a lot more enjoyable.
The first season has a 6.98 rating. The manga has a 7.97
I want to say it's because the plot but I know it's because the PLOT(if you know what I mean)
The fact that Kodomo no Jikan has more members than Mitsudomoe actually scares me, but I guess dirty jokes from children isn't as appealing as dirty half naked ones.
I needed to cleanse my soul after watching this one. Kurgo said:What does "everyone dislikes it" qualify as, though? Of those named in these pages I've pretty much seen only stuff with scores of 7+ (which is good, no matter how one scores anime) so I'm a bit confused as to how the general hatred for an anime would be quantifiable, exactly. Shows like sao may get bashed on a tiny vocal echochamber like mal but considering how huge their fanbases are, it'd hardly be a case of "everyone dislikes them but me", would it? People are just post farming. You can't even say things like SAO on a thread like this. Similar to saying Gintama. Kodomo no Jikan has a pretty high rating but I think for the wrong reasons. I saw someone post saying their two favorite characters in this show were "Kyouko Houin and Mimi Usa," both well endowed. Mimi is 10. See the problem? |
