Coa and Chocoball as Oguie and Ohno from Genshiken
I recently came across (no pun intended) a cute photo gallery of a yuri cosplay of Kanao Ohno and Chika Ogiue from Genshiken.
While the photo series is generally tame despite the yuri overtones, I’ve posted some of the least-risqué shots here (I’m not running a pr0n site, ya jerks!).
Wait...what??
Yaya Han in Yakuza Bodypaint
Holy hot sauce! Yaya Han may have outdone herself in one of her most recent photo shoots. She isn’t dressed as any specific character; she is simply a Yakuza tattoo girl.
Okay, it may be inappropriate to use the term “dressed” in this case. Aside from the robe, the only thing between Yaya’s skin and the open air is a layer of body paint. The design and application is by Nick Wolfe, who will now be referred as Lucky Ass McMoFo.
Did you notice: Her hair pins are butterflies.
After the interview, I added her as a friend on MySpace so I could see when she uploads new photos and because that’s currently her primary homepage. She returned the befriending, adding the following comment to my page:
Hey it was great chatting with you tonight! I forgot to mention during the interview.. I will never look at my C Viper figure the same way after your piece a couple weeks/months ago on her “flaw”. I’m now obsessed with showing people my figure when they come over b/c they just don’t believe how bad it really is. ^__^;
The “flaw” she’s referring to is the one that I’d mentioned in an article she’d seen about the Crimson Viper action figure. Knowing this, I clicked the “Comment Back” link to send this reply:
I’m usually in favor of a little camel toe, but holy cow! There are limits! O_o
When I looked again at my MySpace homepage, I was confused to not find my reply underneath her comment. I’d assumed that replying to comments was like any other thread, but apparently this is not the case for MySpace.
It then occurred to me to look at her homepage, finding my response with no context connecting it to her original message to me. I thought, “Well, that’s going to look inappropriate.” Thus, I quickly composed a second comment, clarifying my true meaning from the first.
I fail at MySpace. Good thing I don’t use it much.
Though thankfully, I’m not as careless, I was reminded of this recent post of FaceBook fail (under the break):
Filed under “Well THAT didn’t take long,” there is already a mod to make Cammy nude, just days after Street Fighter IV‘s release on PC.
I do appreciate that it was Cammy that was chosen for this mod, being a Cammy fan myself. Though there isn’t much to brag about, since Cammy’s costume is a form-fitting leotard. This mod just replaces the leotard texture with skin tones, nipples, and pubes. Alas, her breasts still look compressed against her torso, rather than swaying freely in liberation.
Had they stripped C. Viper down to her birthday suit, I might be more impressed. Though I suppose I should thank my lucky stars that it wasn’t Sakura. Instead, Sakura was given an ape face with Zangief’s moves.
Observe nekkid Cammy in battle below:
Recently, my local anime club began watching a new anime series called Basquash! The premise of this show radiates beauty through its simplicity; that being giant robots playing basketball. Oh, hells yeah!
Even by the opening credits, the show rings of awesome and win. But not so fast! As we watched the first 10 minutes, I was totally drinking the kool-aid for some giant robot basketball action…but then boobs happened.
No, that’s not trick editing; that shot really does last a full 12 seconds. At first, it was cute. A little eye roll here and there in between action scenes. But then boobs kept on happening!
Leave it to Japan to be the ones to come up with such a sweet idea, but also be the ones to thoroughly ruin it. Look, I’m a man who appreciates boobs and boob humor, but I signed on to this show for some giant robot basketball. I can get boobs from 1,000 other shows, but this is the only one that offers the robot/basketball combination. I’d like to have more than 10% of the show actually involve that. I guess the studio wasn’t confident that giant robot basketball wasn’t a strong enough sell for the show, so they padded it up with fanservice.
The guys at Fast Karate for the Gentleman said it best about fanservice: Fanservice is poop. You put poop on cake, you have ruined the cake. No matter how good the cake is, the cake doesn’t improve upon the poop. Poop just makes it into poop cake, which is all bad. Worse than if it were only poop, since we now have to mourn the loss of perfectly good cake.
I hate you, Japan… I hate you so much!
Recently, I’ve been covering stories for GotGame about RapeLay and the slippery slopes we may soon face from the world of censorship. I’d worried that I might be getting too sensationalist on the subject, but it’s looking like there’s some validity to my doomsaying.
The Ethics Organization of Computer Software in Japan recently amended their ban on lolicon and rape-themed eroge, to extensively ban all things kink. The complete list of topics that are now forbidden from not only in-game material, but also images, text, packaging, and titles (including the names of publishers) are as follows:

I can understand placing restrictions on games involving violent, victimizing sexual fantasies (I, too, think of the chil’rens!), but come on. Why should that rob me of indulging in consensual fantasies like hookers, threesomes, or even pregnant women (cuz they need love too!)? I guess even games with a wide release like Agarest Senki have their days numbered.
Japan’s ban frenzy this week isn’t limited to restricting players from games, some publishers are banning access to their own websites. Learning from the international jihad launched by the American feminist group, Equality Now, some Japanese eroge publishers are shielding their websites from foreign eyes.
Minori, a Japanese eroge publisher has blocked access to their website outside of Japan. When non-Japanese web surfers visit the publisher’s website, all they’ll see is this message:
minori official website.
This website cannot be browsed excluding Japan.
Some foreigners seem to be having an antipathy against EROGE.
Therefore, We prohibited the access from foreign countries, to defend our culture.
Sorry for you of the fan that lives in a foreign country.
minori Inc.
Well, I suppose it’s for our own good. Thank you, Equality Now, for protecting us from ourselves. It’s one thing to look out for the welfare of our homeland, but to go around dictating that the rest of the world live up to our cultural standards is a dick move. (Pun intended, for irony.)

The holiday season has always been a favorite time of year for Animal rights group, PETA, as America consumes meat en masse from Thanksgiving through to the new year (assuming you have Christmas leftovers).
One of their campaigns against an otherwise joyful season this year has been the release of a spoof on a beloved Nintendo DS game series, Cooking Mama. In their version, Cooking Mama: Mama Kills Animals, you work along side a bloodthirsty, knife-wielding Mama as you prepare the holiday feast. But it’s not as simple as sticking a Butterball into the oven; you’re guided through the entire process of how the poor, weeping turkey is brutally tortured, mutilated, murdered…all but raped (though I haven’t played very far into the game) before being cooked and devoured.
PETA has made the game free to embed, which I’ used to have here, but the lack of a mute button got incredibly annoying. You can also download the game (for PC and Mac), which I highly recommend grabbing up before somebody done gets sued!
A friend of mine just got a short story published! You can get the book here. I haven’t read it and if I may be honest, I may never. Heh, though the title is undeniably charming. The theme of the story collection is not my cup of tea, but it might be yours! She’s awesome, so check it out…
NSFW WARNING!
One of my annual indulgences from my Animazement adventures are accumulating more anime character figures. Unlike previous years, all the figures I purchased appeared to have one thing in common: The ability to assemble them without their skirts, thus leaving nothing to obstruct the full view of the character’s panties. This option was not exclusive to unassembled figures; even the fully assembled Haruhi Suzumiya figure I bought could be taken apart and rebuilt sans skirt with minimal effort.
It may sound strange, but there’s a simple explanation: It’s Japan. Japanese are obsessed with girl’s panties. Not that I fault them for it. I’ll steal a peek myself, if fate grants me an opportunity. And a hot girl standing before you in her underwear is always a delight be behold. However, the Western culture from which I’m akin to is more conservative about such things, while Asian culture (perhaps especially Japan) are far more overt with their perversions.
Discovering this cultural accent inspirited within my otherwise innocent figures doesn’t bother me, rather it grants them an additional charm. Though it did remind me of a far more twisted fetish from Japan that I’d discovered in the far-most reaches of the interwebs many months ago. I’m not certain if there is a designated term for it yet (in either language), but one need only Google “semen on figure” to realize its self-explanatory keywords.
Basically, as it sounds, a man will beat off and then ejaculate onto an anime figure. Then these men will compare photos of their handiwork online. It’s hardly a sign of a healthy lifestyle, but my own protests may not be over what one may expect.
As I am reminded of every year when raiding the Animazement dealer’s room, anime figures are not cheap. Even 2in figures can go for $25-30 without question. Figures that are often used as these targets of affection cost upward from around $75 and beyond. What offends my sensibilities is that this is such a waste of an expensive figure! I don’t have that kind of money just laying around to blow on a figure whose artistic beauty may or not match it’s price tag…only to stain it with bodily fluids. That stuff doesn’t just wash off. And even if you give it a thorough cleaning, there’s a stubborn, lingering odor. As far as I’m concerned, the figure–whatever its intended purpose–is ruined. It breaks my heart. Both as an otaku and as a penny-pincher…
