It really depends on the convention. Convergence (a MN based sci-fi con) is awesome. I’ll miss it once I move out of state. I gave a small recap on it on my blog a few months ago.

I went to Anime Detour this year and it was kinda lame. I felt a little about of place going there by myself as a 27 year old guy. I really felt that the best time to enjoy AD would be as an 18 year old high school senior. If I weren’t moving, woulndn’t bother attending next year, but I’m willing to check out sakuracon next year when I’m in Washington. Maybe I should try hosting a hentai panel, as I get a lot of feedback on my YT page saying I should do that at a con.

Manga is quite peculiar ain’t it. In Japan, anime is more expensive, manga is cheaper. In America, manga is more expensive, anime is cheaper.

Maybe for shounen manga. For seinen manga, the price discrepancy is not so large.

That, and I preorder all my DitVB, so it ends up being even cheaper. I got V10 for $6.26… and as I look now, it’s currently at $5.49.

I really doubt people in the olden days made paintings and sculptures of naked people just for them to be fapped at.

…or maybe they did?

Well, no they wouldn't, but that's just because of the investment to payoff is so bad. A piece of art would require a skilled artisan weeks to complete, and a fap session lasts minutes and can only really be used a handful of times? Art in the classical era was a display of power and wealth, not much more.

Consider for that kind of investment, you could hire a prostitute dozens if not hundreds of times. I saw a comparison that in Rome, the going rate for a prostitute was roughly equal in monetary cost to a mid-grade glass of wine. So for substantially less money, you get a better sexual experience.

Onegai Teacher. I can’t remember the characters’ names, but there is one scene where it seems like the dude has finally accepted their marriage, and he crawls over into her futon.

The series is also weird for explicitly saying that other characters have had sex.

Thank you for vindicating Ichigo Mashimaro as cute, I can't tell you how many times I've had to defend that series when someone tells me its for pervs.

Meh… I’m generally not into rape, but after watching Ichigo Mashimaro, I really had a desire to see Miu forcibly receiving some cock…

The notion that dogs and cats should not be eaten is a moronic appeal to emotion. It’s unsettling to think of eating one’s companion, and I surely don’t condone eating the family pet, or stealing someone’s pet for food, but beyond that, there is no reason not to eat dogs and cats. Common domestic pets are no more cuter than sheep and goats, yet there is no taboo anywhere for eating those animals.

This poll has a definitive lack of shmup/bullet hell. Seriously, a general gaming thread on an otaku forum that doesn’t mention touhou?

Pretty much the only games I play are vertical scrolling shooters and VN… though I need to learn japanese so I can play daiteikoku (strategy rpg eroge)

As far as my last fap is concerned, it's far less important what I was watching than what I was using… I wrote about it at length in my blog.

When the dildo is inserted all the way, the hook extends just beyond the buttocks, that way rocking back and forth sitting upright gives it a spring effect continually driving the dildo into the prostate. Anyways, it didn’t take very long after this to cum, and it was an incredibly intense experience.

Maybe too intense, in fact. It was really sensory overload. If I were to use a cheap analogy, it was like eating candy that’s too sweet. Yeah, it’s the sweetness you’re going for, but you don’t want the pure sweetness to overload other flavors. [/quote]

what’s a term for homo’s that applies to only men? fag, qweer, homo and gay can be used for anyone, but women have ‘lesbian’.. what do men have?

Given that Lesbos was a place known for its same-sex literature featuring females, maybe “Spartan” would be a good equivalent…? Then again, descibing something as spartan means drab and undecorated, which definitely does not apply to gay men.

You mean like online play?

The examples shown in the promo vids it was one set of people using a tv with split screen, and a separate person doings something completely different with the screen on the controller.

pilandi said:

Oh now i can probably have my inventory on my controller screen or some useless shit like that.
Might as well just use a regular one.

We'll see what they're going to do with it.

I watched some promo vids for it, and it really looks like the true strength of the controller lies in multiplayer gaming where one player has access to a completely discrete view from everyone else. There were examples of stuff like a 4v1 deathmatch, or my idea, of an RPG with a GM.

Looks interesting. The screen controller could be a cool way to impliment player moderated games, like PNP rpgs with a game master

Ehh… Vita might be a stupid name, but at least it’s not innately contradictory like NGP. Waht’s beyond the NExt Generation Portable? The Further Generation Portable?

Also, this sounds more interesting than the headache inducing 3ds. I played pilotwings for all of about 15seconds before I had to turn the 3d effect down from 100% to abotu 25%.

I don’t see any resemblance with the swingset- did you post the right image pair there?

Holy shit this costs a ton of credits on E-Hentai (3500+).

I tracked down a file sonic download a few days ago, and have fapped multiple times.

As for the &quot;would I pay for it?&quot; Definitely not. The artwork is absolutely gorgeous, but when 70% of it involves enema, there is way better crap to support with my money… no matter how delicous a the few futanari/femdom scenes are.
