A man has apparently narrowly avoided divorce after being accused of adultery by his wife, after she discovered his virtual relationships with three schoolgirls.
The story begins with the anonymous husband accidentally leaving his camera bag (for he worked with cameras) at home one day. It so happened he hid his DS in this bag.
His dutiful wife was cleaning the house and noticed a light coming from the bag; thinking it to be a camera left on, she thought to tell her husband of his mistake, but instead discovered the light came from one of the girls of Love Plus, who require regular attention.
His wife stated that at this moment she “felt as if she had discovered the existence of an affair,” and is infuriated by the very memory of the “adulteresses” she found there.
Enraged, she confiscated the console and demanded a full explanation of the game, and the unfortunate husband had to describe the details of his various dates and after-school skinship with the girls of the title.
Later she would go so far as to convene her lady friends together to work out what to do. They played the game, and thought little of it until coming upon Nene, whom they judged a real threat to the couple’s marriage.
Soon they judged the husband guilty of adultery with the game, and took away his DS to sell, with the wife keeping the cash. He was subsequently forced to promise to pay for a New Year’s vacation in order to make amends.
He states he is just glad she did not divorce him.
The wife’s friends were spurred into action by the threatening prospect of losing their breadwinners to 2D schoolgirls, and initiated searches, catching three husbands engaged in this “adultery.”
One, it is said, meekly admitted the charges and handed over the game.
Another lost the game and had his pocket money reduced by his wife.
The other man was actually caught red-handed “kissing” his girl, and had his ROM destroyed on the spot, and was banned from the bedroom to boot.
The unfortunate narrator parts by wishing all those secretly playing Love Plus the best of luck.
Even if it turned out to be fiction, as we have seen the scenario more than rings true…

Even imaginary character require love...
... real ones only need the money.
So fucking true...
I'd choose my wife as well, like always, real vagina feels better!!
k, you're dumb. Nothing beats a fleshlight.
Real vagina? That's why we have high class escort girls. 1 use, no long term problem afterward. Cheap hooker is an alternative, but be careful of diseases.
Fleshlight lolwut
Real pussies are better
Women are nothing more than flesh to be used and cast away.
A cat is fine too.
Hey, what do they call those useless pieces of skin around a vagina again?
Oh yeah, a woman, that's right.
get a tenga or a candy girl, you only need to pay once and they don't bitch as much.
"Women are nothing more than flesh to be used and cast away."
Come on, don't be a dick, you're gonna feed those asshole cherrypicking hypocritical women at Equality Now unnecessary fuel for their selective arguments.
Agreed, refrain from unhelpful coments
Real vagina DOES NOT feels better.
You aren't counting all the fucking HEADACHES before and specially AFTER a relationship. This articles shows only the real thing.
So stop saying "real feels better", you FUCKING KNOW NOTHING !!!
Seems like somebody here is still a virgin.
i kinda loled much at reading the comments above.Anybody else laughed?
ITT: Lonely guys who can;t get girls and who are fustrated.
ITT guys who get girls all the time (while being a self admitting dick), and know how stupid they are (most times anyway).
...real ones would not give a damn about DSes if not the chance to blackmail their men into giving them even more money.
I think that pretty much hits the nail on the head this is all about money. Since my wife doesn't give me an allowance she couldn't care less what sort of game I play. What I find unbelievable about the story is that out of 4 guys who got caught not one of them had the courage to stand up to thier wife.
maybe a cultural difference, or perhaps if they were real men, they wouldn't bother with relationships in a game. this seems like a complex situation full of cultural differences that as an american i don't get. i am not against dating sims, because i know they are popular in japan, and they are supposed to be good practice for inexperienced men. but i question why married men play them. not to say they are wrong or should stop, but just a curiousity as to why. why go with digital when you have the genuine article in front of you. maybe they are scared of their real women and thus the reason for the game and the lack of balls to stand up for themselves.
-the beast
dating sims good practice for inexperienced men?
I lol'd
Married men still look at porno so why can't one play a dating sim? I don't see a big difference.
Probably just an intimacy thing.
And you know how Japan is and appearance being their top priority over all.
Dating sim like that must of been real tough for the wife.
Of course they need! Do you spect cows like that to get a job?
So fucking true. Why won't they all just divorce the bitches?
Because they'd get half your assets plus lifetime aliments.
The wives must have been terrible such that the husbands would rather be with a 2d fictional girl. The quality of women in real life sink day by day.
They need to take all the wealth they can grab, hop on a plane with their DSs and live in peace on a foreign beach.
If only the wives made better sandwiches...
Yeah...It's hard finding a good sandwich these days..
SANDVICH VERY GOOD ~ WHO TOUCH SASHSA.
The quality of women sinks daily, thanks to the women, who also wished for their quality to rise. Ironic? I mean, I get the impression that 70% of women is after the money.
let this be a lesson that you should get a prenup
There is also a reason married men in Japan do not want to divorce:
The Wife would get 50% of the ex-husband's income without contest.
This got passed in Japan a few years ago if memory serves. This could be a reason men don't want to marry women, on top of being undesired by women. Prior to this, the women didn't get anything if the husband divorced them. Now they get 50% of everything even if they divorce the husband.
New rule: Men must learn how to use microwaves and washer machines. Oh I forgot one, DS
But there is no legal enforcement of that sort of thing. The police have no jurisdiction in civil matters, it's why 2ch still exists. The guy who ran it has been sued to the moon and back but nobody can forcefully take the money the courts have said he has to pay.
Plus, in Japan the husband will probably NEVER see any of their children from the marriage, so as if you'd fucking bother anything. Stupid bitch can pay for the kids if she's not going to share.
Those greedy bitches need to be spanked regularly. This will keep them away from their mans stuff.
Okay but I don't believe in this article (especially because of Artefact half admitting it the last line.)
Like do all the married men in Japan carry around Nintendo DSes, and with Love Plus installed on them? This story sounds like a tricky viral marketing, targeting otaku's feelings. ^^
Yeah, also it would be in some newspaper...
I think they should charge that one woman for murder, by destroying a ROM she ended a 2D character's life... wtf!? Justice!!!!!
Where's Equality Now when they are needed? Not only rape but murder of an imaginary character! The outrage! ^_^
That guy is an idiot, he should just dumped the bitch for good!
lol 3D girlie is jealous of some beautiful 2D girls :p
3D pigs pathetic...
so true...
It's disgusting. And they then went on to sell or destroy the DSes and games? That's awful. I can't believe how vile a species women are sometimes.
Don't forget the judge who is male like almost all judges in japan. Its a men who made the decision, not a woman.
the judges decision to do what again?
Screw over the man in any He said, She said argument.
The judge probably has a wife waiting at home for him too. If I were that judge and had a
harpywife like the defendant's, I'd find in favor of thegreedy trollplaintiff too!Japan is well and truly fucked. Up the ass. With a splintered canoe paddle. :|
"I have four words for you honey... IT'S A FUCKING GAME!"
I see 5 words... =)
a contraction is one word that is comprised of two words. "it's a fucking game." is still 4 words.
-the beast
Wife: You spent money on the game. I want my share of that money. Hand it over.
Husband: I spent my share of our money in this game, plus you are the one administrating our funds.
Actually, it is a kissing game. A fucking game has yet to come.
And with wives reacting like this its easy to know why they were playing the game...
Umm... I think someone already started on that one...
I pity the fool who thinks nene is a threat because they are too ugly themselves.
Can't really blame them considering nene got like the ideal qualities that almost every man would wants while in comparison majority real women don't even have a fraction of those qualities...
Nene bugs me
The solution?
Marry a gaijin.
As a westerner (a woman), it seems absurd to me that men are given pocket money - that's for children.
Most westerners marry for love, not convenience, therefore you're less likely to get a gold-digger.
But Japanese women's genes are so hawt -.- it depends on the westerner too, Mexican women(my case) like bad boys, if Japanese women hate "herbivorous" men, then Mexican women want not just "carnivores", they want a complete jerkass.
Bitch deserved it for being 3D.
They where right to see nene as a threat as I would leave my wife for nene.(If I had a wife)
They should make their husbands love them more if they dont want to lose to some fictional girls.
Punishing him makes him dislike his wife even more.
This is the most insightful comment.
If your husband is looking for refuge from a lousy marriage
then they have just made it worse.
If the husband only sees the game as a...well, game, then she has nothing to fear and just made a big deal out of nothing.
This is my advice to any wife concerned about their husband masturbating, fuck your husband. A man only feels like fapping 2-3 times a day, if you fuck your husband he simply will have no motivation to fap to anything else.
(He might still like to look at porn)
Don't forget that porn can give the wife some hints about what kind of fantasies the husband has, what if the man is just wishing for a "special" kind of "job" ??
That's what will happen when these women never played dating sim games..
Amen to that. What ever happened to communication and compromise in a marriage? It takes two to tango, and it's clear that the wife is not doing her bit in any way, shape, or form.
Then again, I just find it ridiculous that the husband would take this shit from his wife. If she isn't cooperating in this marriage, why should he?
Assuming he is not just playing the game for fun...
all i can do is laugh, really loud.
the women are sad indeed... if it's that much of a problem look at how your NOT fulfilling all of your man's needs. it may look as though he's in wrong, he's not.. it takes two to get thru a relationship, and if you think 2d is cheating, then it's bad on you..
this is why i'll stick to 2d, if i get tired of her, i can just go to another 2d instead, no baggage (batteries not included) and move on. stupid emotions... love me until i die, wealth/poverty, sickness/health, if you can't follow that don't get married/ fall in love. sad day for this type of reality.
ROFLMAO :D I don't think I've laughed this hard since... Well it's been awhile anyway lol :)
What's this? Why do they have to sell the DS and keep the money?
Also, Nene, is the best girl. No wonder they had to screw her up.
Bitches and whores.
Wow, insecure much? I mean seriously it's a game. Thus not real, and not really a threat to your marriage.
If it is, it just shows how shallow the relationship is. OH NOES!
I've never played the game myself and I probably never will. I like sim games but pretty much just for the different stories lines for the protagonist. Most I've only played for my ps2 and dreamcast and I've only played Tsukihime and Fate/Staynight on the computer. Its funny as well how people are just saying its a game and yet most people I've seen on this site are calling the girls my wifu and shit like that. I can understand how the women would feel threatened if there husband started to turn out so pathetic as to go after a woman that's not real.
because those women cant fulfill their mans needs because they are cruel money sucking bitches
Anon 00:17. Says the anon who's probably only heard of relationships like this and has probably never been in a relationship themselves before. Not all couples are like this. Most of the crap on here is just the negative stuff which anons like you seem to make to big a deal about it.
lolwut?
I can't believe women sometimes. T__T
"took away his DS to sell, with the wife keeping the cash"
"pay for a New Year’s vacation in order to make amends"
"had his pocket money reduced by his wife"
must be wonderful to have a japanese wife...
"had his pocket money reduced by his wife"
Can someone explain me this cultural trait ?
I mean, in my country pocket money is for children. The simple idea of a wife having a regard on the daily expense of her husband is a WTF for me.
Or did i misunderstood ?
http://www.sankakucomplex.com/2009/06/13/japanese-wives-no-more-than-10-a-day-for-husband/
Normally i would have just comment on how idiotic the behavior of those wifes is, since they got jealous of a game. But the husbands are so pathetic that overshadow even that fact.
How lame can you be?
Really if my wife acted like that i would tell her to shut the fuck up and stop acting like a bitch over a little game. Really this men(if you can call them that) are as lame as it can get.
No wonder there wifes treat them like that. It's there fault. They have no balls at all.
Japanese men will soon have a pussy instead of a dick. Actually not even that because there wifes who have a pussy are obviously stronger than them.
No I think you're right about the pussy thing. Not sure if its actually true or not but on this site one of the little news bits was that men over in Japan were squatting while taking a piss more than the women are.
OH yeah and they have little gadgets that help women pea while standing up.
Lol haha, at first 2D lolis received RL child protection, then 2D women received their rites from being victims of imaginary raep, now 2D girls are stealing men away from their 3D wives/girlfriends..
Well, 2D and 3D rights merge already so soon reading a hentai will be betray too.
Never really thought 2D would be much of a threat. o__o
So scary...
Apparently the men had no balls. And the women lacked brains.
BITCHES AND WHORES
Noooooo! Manaka why did you that? WHO TOOK THAT PICTURE! ANSWER ME! /furiously asks to do the same thing for me in LovePlus mode.
ぬぐして！今の！
She and her friends went so far as to single out Nene as dangerous to their relationship? How fucking pathetic.
Because she feels that her relationship is weak and she can't protect it from the likes of Nene.
"took away his DS to sell"(...) "had his ROM destroyed"
Where are the people who protect fictional children?
These women should be arrested for destroying and selling imaginery girls!!!
He would have been better off Divorced.
Oh yeah.... losing half your belongings and then being forced to pay alimony for years to come..... that's a win-win situation if I ever heard one. :\
and some people say ds is kiddy console huh~
i am really really sad reading this article. i am also infuriated by the like of these women. i want an article where the man sell all the woman's handbags and shoes. that will relieve me.
These japanese men brave enough to carry on their race instead of sticking to 2D need to MAN THE FUCK UP, so the next generation is raised right. Put those damn women in their place, stop stuff like that pocket money bullshit.
As soon as they stand up for themselves they're gonna get hit with a false domestic violence charge, be sent to jail, lose the kids, lose the house, lose half their wealth, lose half their pension and be forced to pay child support and alimony.
Not a good idea to 'man up' if you're just gonna get whacked back down by the government.
Why get married in the first place, then?
LOL now this is an article.
WTF!! Its a game!! A god damn game! If those wives cant beat a 2D character maybe they need to give up their day job...
* If he was *secretly* playing ero-games, their relationship has unresolved conflict.
* If I were him, I'd be enraged that she "consulted" with her lady friends on the issue. IMHO, my relationship is exclusively between me and my woman - not my woman and her mother, or her friends, or whatever. Likewise, it's no business of my family, drinking buddies, etc.
* Don't presume that playing ero-games means trouble in the bedroom. I live in the U.S., and I've got a friend who plays PC ero-games, has nudie computer wallpapers, etc., and his wife is cool with that (though since their son turned three, he's put his wallpaper to something non-sexual, put his DVD cases with the bondage-babe covers up on the highest shelf of their shared computer room, where the kid can't see 'em.)
When I've stayed overnight, crashing on the futon in their living room, I've heard sounds from the bedroom indicating some serious action in progress.
+1
I doubt any woman wouldn't be offended if their partners decided to play eroge behind their backs.
Yes, I know the girls aren't real. Yes, I know it's just a game. Yes, I know nobody is committing adultery. Yes, I know she overreacted.
But seriously, how childish is it to hide erotic material from your own wife. For the love of God, she's not your mother!
...although it appears some wives are okay on taking on this role, denying their husbands allowance. So they deserve each other?...
hey now do you show around every game you play?You could think why would she even be interested in this?
How would the man know that it was so offending to her until she saw it?
He then explained the game to her and she tried the game which made her rage only more instead of being understanding that he was so fair as to show her the game and all.
This woman went overboard in relationships
I reckon this particular case is absurd. I don't think they're interested in each other romantically, just another marriage for convenience, so things like this are unavoidable.
I just can't think of a happy union where one person has to keep hiding their tastes from the other. Like Anon's example back there, isn't it much better when you can skip the mischief and be with someone who fully understands you?
Maybe this couple should just divorce already... unless they enjoy a twisted relationship of truth or dare that replaces healthy affection. Which could be totally be the case, by the way.
well there are some relationship where the women knows about this and the man told her.Only the woman says he should just hide it from her and continue leading a normaly married life.
eh this was more in casses of husband having porn,but i guess this could go equaly
True... I guess I should never underestimate people's capacity for craziness. What baffles me most is that I'm STILL baffled at how those marriages actually work.
Society is based on people getting used to putting up with all kinds of stuff, anyway. I should know better and leave the couple alone. Whatever floats their boat.
Manaka? Who took your picture?! I need explanation!
...
Aaah, not playing LovePlus over a month will make her angry huh... She won't even hold my hands with me. ; A ;
Your fault. Manaka will surely not hold hands with you.
I am beginning to think this is actually related to all those crazy bans being pushed over, no husband > no money > lurking > men attracted to 2D and/or fictional and "more tolerant" beings > rage > embrace feminazism > protest to get rid of their "rivals"...
And you know the rest, pretty fucked up, but I think that makes the whole thing in Japan make sense.
how low can this woman go, she's just paranoid!!!
Men who get pussy whipped >_>
Gee they should man up if their wives are complete bitches either that or fix your relationship otherwise it's time to cut your losses.
I really do question these women's actions and intentions when they got married. Seriously...If you feel threatened by a fictional ideal character stealing away your husband, you're doing something wrong as a wife clearly.
Then again: convening with lady friends, selling DS, keeping money and forcing the husband to pay for vacation? If that doesn't fit the image of the 'gold digger' type, I don't know what is. Though the alternative would be that she is very insecure...very. I guess the 'salary man' image is still needed just for marriage over there. Not like we don't have that here in the West, but it seems less prevelant than Japan. Well the 'yamato nadshiko' seems pretty extinct on the other hand.
When i told my wife about the game she thought it sounded cool.....
Having no balls + No Guts + or Whatever + Inferiority Complex + Chose a Wrong Woman to Marry + Let Woman Controls + Fearful + Pee by Sitting + Obedient x (Suppressive Otaku + Salaryman) = Totally FKingPAWNED husband No Cure
At least those bad guys have the guts and strength to protect anything he have to protect, not just a fat suppressive obedient otaku husband that's merely just a money-making machine and "yes ma'm".
That's why you triple check that your choosen one understand what's a gaming is before wedding.
How come none of these men have balls? Why didnt they just say, "Fuck off woman, its my game and I will play it when I want." ?
My god, this is dumb. I mean, what is he gonna do, run off with her?
Its someone from Japan so I wouldn't be surprised if he did.
So this is why Japan has a declining birth rate...
Marriage is a highly risky business, you might just end up with one of these bitches...
Incidentally, isn't this why Equality Now wishes to ban medias containing kawaii school girls; for fear of their losing source of income?
Oh crap, it so true!111
Maybe the loli-ban is a move out of fear of a eventual decline in marriages, children and continuity of Japan!
....No, srsly. Think about it; sexual needs being fulfilled by 2d pics and hookers... just like Futurama robosexualism!
I lol'd @ the 'punishments' XD
Personally I like this story^^
Both the male and the female side is very amusing - übermanly males who haven't got the balls to cheat on their women the 'regular way' and wives actually playing with DS to be sure the material is 'adultery' XD
Well, at least they've solved the problem in proper manners...Didn't exaggrate it much - divorce would've been a bit too extreme...^^U
they should start selling ds together with fleshlights... would definately by a hit.
......goddamn, japanese is stupid....
bitch...
Please let this game get an English translation....
; ;
I wonder how many of these people that talk "woman quality is shrinking every day" actually bother to go around looking for girlfriends (or ever had one) ¬¬
It's not a current tendency, people in general are becoming "less social" (men and women) but with that aside, Sankaku is known for out of the ordinary stuff, making broad assumptions based on the news we read here is beyond stupidity.
It gets even worse with some comments I read where people bring in "eqNow" in this context sight ><
To those above saying how the wives are sad and pathetic. Is it really the wives? Or is it the husbands? What kind of man are you if you can't even stand up to your wife. Last I checked, men are still considered superior to women in society. Even with all the lolequality, children still take their family names from their father, exceptions included spineless cowards and gays.
>> Declining birth rates
>> Japanese men have no balls
I see why now
I never visited 2ch but do people tell everything about there lives there?
Frequently, as the veil of anonymity allows them to be candid.
Such control freaks women.And the men can't stand up to their women and explain fictionary things how they are.And how she punished him and forced him to pay for a vacation.
The problem is the women are thinking fiction is really something threathing them -_-.
Mostly it has to go what the womens says,luckily not always.
This is why i say bitches and whores every day.Actualy just something i got used saying at least once a day XD.
Well with the men over there wanting to get married to fake women (which is really sad by the way.) I can see why she acted that way.
i can understand this concern,it certainly is funny how some japanese want to do that and suddenly they are all married to the same character or wanting to get married.
But this man was already married,he also said what the game is about so he was pretty fair.
Maybe he was just playing it for fun,i mean who would not like a good made addictive game based around a schoolgirl.It's almost every mans dream.
I mean you have your normal games and then you have other games that can get interesting.
Games are for fun anyway.
Also it didn't seem like he had problems with this kind of fiction,since the wife sold it so easily.
Beside that it was his property.
I still think the women there was going overboard.
That is so stupid. The lady has 300 fantasies running full blast all the time of who is doing her all the time and she only has sex with him when SHE wants a baby. Thats just totally bull, every one of these I read are the most uneducated response by a female to get out of an relationship. But, I suppose its better than having them hire a murder like most black widows do.
Yeah tell ya what. How bout you learn to speak better English before you try it on here.
>>Another lost the game
Yeah, me too...
Fortunately, my girlfirend is a gamer as well. So if I play some ero bishoujo game she always can play some of her yaoi bishounen games, and no hard feeling for anyone.
A married man was playing this?!
Lies!
Why they didn't simply divorced her? Jealously over a game? Breaking the DS? Reduncing 'pocket money'? Time to go, parasite!
Another lost the game and had his pocket money reduced by his wife.
Another lost the game...
...lost the game...
Oops.
Virtual Wife: needs little to no maintenance, doesn't ask for money, loves you eternally.
Real Wife: can be a bitch, nags/extorts you for money, love for you is directly proportional to the size of your paycheck, and there will be hell to pay if she catches you cheating on her, with a virtual-lover or otherwise.
...and they wonder why their husbands loathe them so much.
Virtual wife loves you eternally huh? Yeah sure there's just one problem though, virtual wife isn't real therefore the love isn't real.
This article really made my day. Accusing their husband of "adultery" is just like admitting they are worse than those 2D girls. Have they ever wondered why their husbands will look for comfort in those 2D girls while still having their wives?
They should be feeling despair that they are not even up to challenge against 2D girls.
this prolly shows clearly how virtual girls own the real ones!
So while marriage gets more and more similar to a blood contract with hell, the Japanese still wonder why they have a demographic problem?
I mean, this is clearly a warning against engagements with 3D adult women.
Three things that Japanese wives epically fail at:
* giving their husbands sufficient pleasure.
* using their own money to buy things.
* allowing to use their money freely.
I wonder if the new DSi LL would have made the situation any better or worse.
Notice how everything was forgiven when he promised to pay for a vacation that she would probably spend fucking random tropical guys for retribution?
Ridiculous. The use the adultery card whenever they want extra spending money or power over their already worked-to-death husbands.
Jesus Christ. What a bunch of pussies those Japanese husbands are.
I doubt that she really loves him.
...wow.
I mean, wow.
It's just a game. Goes to show how insecure they are if they feel threatened by a video game.
Fucking bitches.....and spineless Japanese men. I would immediately tell them to fuck off back to the kitchen where they belong.
You would if a woman other than your mother could stand your company for more than two minutes.
Oh what a witty come back!
Am I wrong? Can anyone actually prove to me that I'm wrong to be pissed off at such a ridiculous reaction by a bunch of dried up busy-bodies? I seriously doubt it.
I stand behind my opinion that these men need to stand up for what they want to enjoy.
really japan? really? if i facepalmed over this i'd give myself a concussion.
I don't think she had any right to go through his things or sell the DS, even if she is his wife.
Did she buy the DS? No, it was his property. God woman, if he had to turn to virtual women, what's that say about you?
This is so stupid I don't know if I should laugh or facepalm.
Im surprised these husbands didnt wanted the divorce from wifes that confiscate their OWN MONEY for finding them playing a f****** game.
I'm all for Japanimation and stuff but....why the hell would you want to play these things when you have a wife or girlfriend? Spend your freakin time on her. I certainly wouldn't like it if I had a wife and she'd have a secret female dating simulation. Why do you need the simulation..you already have the real deal!
Because games are fun to play, doofus. I like to cook, but I still like to play cooking games. I like to play with my dog and plant in my garden, but I still play games like that too. Games are enjoyable. It is the most retarded point of logic ever to say something like "why do youz play game, you haz the real thing." Why does anyone play games at all ever?
Because they are fun.
Anyway, as for the man not disclosing to his wife about his secret eroge playing, it's pretty obvious that in the localized culture of the average japanese man and his wife, he would have never been given "permission" to play anyway. I think its ridiculous to consider pornography/hentai/eroge as cheating, or even something that needs to be disclosed to the other spouse for "honesty" in a relationship. This is because I think that the seeking of such outlets is a normal thing for /all/ humans to do -- I don't need my husband to disclose that he goes to the bathroom either. If you as a spouse are that threatened by a harmless exploration of fantasy, that says to me that there are serious trust issues in your marriage, period. Your house is built on shaky ground to begin with. But then, most modern marriages are.
It is my considered opinion that a marriage where you aren't "allowed" to do such things by either your husband or wife is not a marriage worth having, not simply because you won't have any eroge to play. It's because the situation here was downright abusive to the husbands.
What would we think if the story had been about men taking games and spending money away from their wives for playing a game? I bet there would be a considerably different response :(
Obligatory defensive statement: I am a bisexual lady. I have been with my husband for twelve years and we have been happily married for two. I play eroge, renai, and games where I get to see panties. So does he. I would punch him in the face if he tried to take my games away, but of course he would never, because he is awesome.
TLDR: Yeah, if I were that dude, I'd leave my wife for Nene. At least she'd never take my money and humiliate me in front of her friends as a matter of course.
next popular game.
Taking pics of your wife,where you can put her into rpg monsters and other to beat her or kill her XD
Actually there was a game like this existing for the very first Gameboy. XP

But Love Plus isn't an eroge.
You don't think things should be disclosed for the sake of ''honesty''? I can understand that. I mean if you don't know your spous is cheating on you your relationship is fine and dandy until then, right? Ignorance is bliss, right?
Don't try and put things into your own context and act like it's alright for everyone else.
I can understand adultery within a marriage but with Love Plus? Isn't the game aimed at lonely otaku?
seems that not only otakus are lonely in japan...
LOL geez as much as I dislike the rather materialistic nature of Japanese women from what I have seen on here, lets face it folks, Japanese men are doing it to themselves.
This only shows how SICK women are.
Specially this one, she need an urgent psychological treatment. Begin jealousy from a simple SOFTWARE is NOT normal at all.
And "K" needs to surfering a lot to know what the other anonymous means.
You know, the most woman aren't that way besides the story seems to be fake.
haha, any man being led around like that seriously needs to get his priorities right. Less Bitch is better Life.
Looks like the husband isn't getting any if he has to turn to a game :| so it should be the WIFES fault on this point
Women are life support systems for vaginas.
Of course money will be needed to maintain that system. Unless, gawd forbid, they die and the precious vagina is lost.
If your a necrophiliac, I guess it doesn't matter.
I'd beat the shit outta my wife for thinking ANY of those ignorant ass thoughts. its fucking pixels.
one day man will invent an artificial vagina that feels 2x better than real vagina then what say you knaves?
They already try that since ages and always fail.
give it time theres advances every year.
Fleshlight doesn't count?
"He states he is just glad she did not divorce him." that has to be because a divorce could be more expensive..
If I married a girl like that, and she tried to divorce me over something so stupid. I'd let her, don't need a woman by my side that's so immature.
lol. Best article in awhile.
lol have to agree
Man, now I want this game... and Ds....
Well ladies, there's a reason they were spending time with 2D girls over you...
On a side note, I recommend eroge I've played to my fiance. Shared interests are nice...
Why is this even an issue? It's a game. Get the fuck over it.
This game is gaining more and more infamy, and it's getting me curious! Fingers crossed that VN Translations sees this one through to the end (I have my doubts...).
I was in a bad mood.. shitty mood.. I was so fucking pissed off.. but this topic.. this thing that happened, was the hilarious thing ever crossed my eyes.
Thanks Sankaku for the best cheer up ever. *ahem* And now my official comment. BUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Oh god that's the stupidest thing ever!
is it normal in Japan that your wife can take away any of your possessions and just sell them?
>Breadwinners
Damn Artefact, be more sexist.
These are stay-at-home-wives. Their husbands are their breadwinners.
on the one hand, its a game, and she should not freak out.
however on the other hand this dude plays Love Plus.
I dont know which of them I feel more sorry for...
Wow, I didn't think that the men of Japan were becoming this big of pussies. Seriously, if the bitch is giving you that much shit over a game, it's time to tie that vagina up and show it who's boss.
Okay, seriously, if the wife feels this insecure and threatened by a video game, and the husband prefers this thing to his wife, well then the game's not the problem. THE PROBLEM IS WITH YOUR MARRIAGE.
Wow, lack of manhood.
Once they combine the technology from love plus and Real dolls together, coupled with Japanese ingenuity for robotics, women will be 100% obsolete to a man.
I think someone mentioned it earlier, but yes, I think this is the true reason for things like the attempted loli ban. Women are getting scared as shit that they are being replaced by digital 2D. They're only hope now is to ban all things 2D that a man can turn to (kill off competition) as there is no way they can ever compare to a digital waifu when they refuse to change.
It's almost like Feminism is coming back to bite them in the ass. You wanted to be strong and independent? That's cool, I believe in equality.
Oh, but now you complain when men seek independence both emotionally and physically from women?
hypocrites.
I think what really worries women is the fact that men are inventive and creative enough to live without women for elongated periods of time, if not permanently if we just put our minds to it.
A man created the tenga/fleshlight, and all the chemicals needed to make it. A man programmed the code to make the game and simulate perfect women. A man will create a perfect robotic body to merge the two. A man will work hard to earn the money to purchase his perfect waifu.
The women, having created nothing, will seek to destroy the mans independence and personal happiness, as she does not benefit from this. Women don't want to be controlled by men, but can't allow men to be free of female domination.
If women want to control everything, I say we let them. I'd gladly be a house-husband. Clean the house, dishes, take care of kids, cook meals (cooking is fun!) and help her relax when she's back from a hard grueling 8 hour work day. Then I'll take her paycheck and divy it out. only fair right?
inb4 artifical lifeform being capable to give birth to your child made the same way you would do with a normal women.
boo hoo hoo
that's some shit the wife and her friends are sprouting ,,, hahaha adultery wtf men hahaha
It is just a game.
their marriage is just a game and the man is playing the game,he loses if he gets divorced and loses half of his belongings.
This si why I'm not going to get married to a Japanese woman. They just want money that's all.
Holy shit, what a bitch.
they just lost the game lol
lol people are so stupid it awesome! but it's a real shame an innocent
ds had to die ....
Who the fuck do they think they are?
If it was me I'd divorce her. What kind of retard gets jealous of a fictional character?
This and the loli bans' "victimizing virtual children" thing.. it seems like Japan is having a hard time telling fiction from reality.
can you say neurotically insecure?
this is the biggest proof that bitches fears to be replaced, by better 2D women
They are just afraid to lose their bread-winner. Look, the wife didn't even repent and demanded him to pay for the new year vacation. I bet divorce is a lot cheaper than having to pay for the whole vacation.
Reason why he rather spend time on games than on his wife is so obvious.
TAKE THAT SONY, Can yer Shitty PSP do this!? LONG LIVE NINTENDO!!! interesting idea too =D
Don't these women realize stirring up all this trouble is going to make husbands want to divorce them more?
