Considering the racial stereotyping in the early ones, probably. I mean there's an argument to be made that the pedo tendencies of some anime is just as prevalent in western media. "Born sexy yesterday" is still a popular trope after all, if not as explicit as "lolis". Not to mention Twilight's famous late book mess where guy falls in love with a damn infant. 23 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Anime will be a mistake.

For a non-joke response, Anime is simply the Japanese shortening the English word "Animation". So anything animated is Anime. It's simply colloquially to refer specifically to Japanese Animation, or anything that could be compared to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also written from the perspective of a literal pedophile, whom the author described as a "vain and cruel wretch", so I will very much yell at clouds about the word "loli" being used as a neutral term.

Interdimensional Observer Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Finally got to doing the Brain Powerd finale in J, the first half of it at least. Will do the other after a little exercise. I noticed during the battle that the Brigandi had Orgone Buster Cannon, with Festenia. Turns out it is indeed possible to acquire the upgraded J Original final attack with two of the sub-pilots in a single run, since I already have it with Katia. Will do this on the fourth run when I want both Sword and Rifle F Modes. Do I delay GC and do J fourth run first? I vacillate too much.😆 And, the Brains are definitely, fittingly, the best counter to the Grand Chers. Antibody negates Antibody, S-size negates S-size, add in the friendship Hit & Evade bonuses to finish mitigating any accuracy issues when trying to shoot the Chers down. An attack + a support attack can then sometimes ORKO the fragile little Chers, at very most they're 3RKO'ed if they don't ever dodge/counter-cut. Also very effective on the last-minute Mycenaeans, being untouchable against these means the Brains don't loathe a potential -Will or -SP attack like the supers (I had a bunch of free deployment slots, T-Blade I forgot gets stuck with Archangel on the last split) were dealing with.
