Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
I have an apology to make to Bubble.
Months ago, I recommended an anime called Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation. Bubble gave up on the show after a few episodes after seeing signs that I had somehow missed.
This is about that.
Remember how I said that if it came out that the author liked kids a little too much, I would not be surprised?
I just learned that, in the original web novel version, in the main character's past life, he was thrown out of the house for...looking at photos of his own niece taking a bath, and...you can figure out the rest.
Yeah. In-universe, the character is a pedophile.
This was changed for the anime. But the fact remains, and all the other signs of it are still there.
Bub, you were right. I was wrong. And I am ashamed I ever suggested this.
I am never watching anything about this show ever again.
No apologies needed! It does hurt doesn't it, realising that even when we escape Hollywood and go for what seems to be so wholesome - Japanese movies - and even there the Satanic pedophiles have infiltrated.
I have thought about that show a few times since then, because honestly, it was done so well and I am sure the creators are very talented, and I wish they were not satanic pedos. I have had second thoughts, wondering if I was being too paranoid.
So thanks for this update, I really appreciate this, and now I dont have to look back on this show again.
I have noticed over the years that Anime industry is filled with movies with very subtle sexualization of kids. I am sticking to JDramas and those few animes that are pretty wholesome. Starting any shows includes preparing yourself to ditch it midway when the first signs start showing up.
I hope very soon all this filth is cleaned up and we can go back to enjoying popular culture without being paranoid.
Thanks again!
