VR MMO anime series
« on: March 13, 2014, 08:10:32 am »
I have just finished watching a Japanese anime series based around being in a full-immersion virtual reality MMO.
It has a few interesting comments about MMO's.


Be warned - females are sexualised in the series. If you haven't seen a Japanese anime before, this can be a bit of a shock.
The series is in Japanese with English subtitles. There are a few episodes in American English with no subtitles (shudder).

Ewww! Anime as in TV series. Definitely not Hentai {shudder}.

Lol Sometimes I wonder if there is a difference.

I didn't know what Hentai meant until I looked it up after Brickwit's post.
Clothes (or the lack of it) meant I clicked no further than the Google search.

The 'sexualised' comment in the OP merely is an indication that I really wanted to slap the producer at certain points while screaming 'females are not objects'.

Yeah, you're better off having not gone any further. Hentai gets WAY worse, unfortunately.

Anyway, I'm not much of a fan of anime in general but some of it is really quite good and not overdone at all and I'll have to take a look at this series. Thanks for the recommendation. 8-)

Anime is a language, just like pictograms or hieroglyphs. You'll learn it if the story it tells is interesting enough. The classics: Ghost in the Shell (movie) and it's modern sequel Stand Alone Complex (TV series). Start with TV series, it'll get u hooked before u can say "Oh!" ;)

Ghost in the Shell was a pretty cool movie and I didn't know there was a TV sequel!
