No

You have to remember that in Japan, most adults if not all (almost) consider anime as "cartoons" and "for children"

They are use to blood, guts and perversion

I don't know much about Yugioh but maybe they ran the series before they realized just how much merchandise potential they really had.

Yugioh season 0 was never intended to be anything like it's later version with the TCGs.

This version of yugioh was more about Yami yugi possessing Yugi. He didn't know it and had no initial say. The first eps are almost the same. In this series, they played a variety of games, including "Magics and Wizards" which later became "duel monsters" and as we know it today, "yugioh" The game was played almost completely different with different back art as well.

AFAIK there's no english dub of this version and likely never will be.

Yes. Just like the original Dragon Ball and Urusei Yatsura were aimed at kids. Think back to when you were 12, didn't you enjoy dirty jokes and perverted humor? Kids in that age range are the prime audience for these series and the authors write accordingly. Also, lets be real here, fansubbers often add a little (or a lot sometimes) edge to the show they're working on, especially when they want to make it seem like more than a children's show. The original Japanese may not have been that blunt.

You got it backwards, It's the west that consider cartoons as childish

>shounen
Yes.

Yugioh wouldve been better if they had kept switching up games like season 0. sticking to one card game slowed it down.

They're considered childish in Japan as well, but in the same sense that the first few Harry Potter books would be considered childish - ie they're still somewhat respect despite being "for kids" and aren't thought of as complete vapid shit, which is the reputation cartoons have in the West.

People were losing interest in the manga, and sales were falling. Takahashi noticed that people liked Magic & Wizards from Chapter 3 and had Kaiba come back for Death-T. After that and Monster World, the manga became entirely based around the game, but not before the name was changed to Duel Monsters, and an anime based around the post-Monster World chapters was released.

There's literally blowjob and handjob shows in Japan.

I'm reading into it, but it's basically about the same here and there with anime. Disney is the big thing there for some reason. Otaku's there are basically seen as the same as we see them here. "LOL! HE likes anime! I bet he loves hentai too!"

exactly.
Arc V is good and all but sometimes they pull a dragon ball z and drone on and I lose interest till I have to force myself thru it incase there's something key to it.

I get that,but I still think adding random shadow games in DM wouldve been nice. Thats why the dungeon dice monster eps were at least a little interesting. Yugi's supposed to be the king of GAMES.

Dungeon dice monsters was a thing irl but it never took off. I could never get any one to play, so now I have a bunch of dice

Fuck off back to plebbit you autistic attention whoring dirtbag.

>There's literally blowjob and handjob shows in Japan.
I live in Japan, and what in the hell are you even talking about?

Besides that, the Western understanding of what Japanese see otaku as, and the actual way Japanese people see otaku as, is completely different.

Also, 98% of Japanese doesn't even know that the Western's idea of "hentai" even exists.

So did they ever explained what happened to that blue haired chick?

Wow you're mad. I'm talking about the thread and you're getting mad cause I wear a name a trip, literally get over it.

If you live in japan, are you able to get on 2chan? also, is Sup Forums not blocked?

1 last thing, is it true that facebook basically has no impact there? I heard there's like 3 social medias there that are really big.

>Also, 98% of Japanese doesn't even know that the Western's idea of "hentai" even exists.
What do you mean, user?

Hentai is a word you can say around 5 year old kids.
It doesn't mean anime porn or tentacles. It doesn't even have anything to do with porn, really. The vast majority of Japanese don't even know those sort of thing exists, or that the West has jokes about that sort of thing.

His post was the equivalent of thinking everyone who watches Blue's Clues or whatever is big in the West now is also into furry porn. It's ridiculous.

God, you're annoying. I can tell you're young, but try being silent for a while too.

then correct me faggot. I'm 25 btw. I have general questions, what's wrong with asking?

>wtf u talking about
They totally exist. They're popular in China, my gf watched them all the time

reminder that personal experience doesn't equal factual knowledge

Right, but let's trust the tripfag who talks like he's leaving comments on deviantart. Because hearsay is, after all, better than personal experience.

I was asking what a "blowjob show" even is. I can't tell if it's something you pay to see at a couple's bar, or some sort of adult PPV internet tv show, or what.

TV show. There's a few of them. Pornstars blowing participants. If they came, they lost.
It goes for male-on-male or female-on-male. The former makes it more exciting cuz they don't wanna be gay and cum. But they do nonetheless.
Sometimes, they also have to just sing songs correctly as they get wanked. Depends on the show.

>TV show. There's a few of them.
Please, we only have eight channels. You're talking about a minor Adult channel you have to pay for.

That's like a Jap saying the US literally has Avengers and Spider-Man porn parodies on tv, just because they paid for the adult channel in their hotel one night during their trip to Hawaii.

I can't speak for China because I hate China, but it's similarly stupid to see Asia as this single monolithic culture where porn must exist on tv everywhere just because someone uploaded a PPV show meant for 20+ year olds and it went viral.

Okay, Ill try this one more time...

what happened to that blue haired bitch?

Porn exists everywhere on TV in Europe. Or used to, not so much anymore. China banned any kind of porn. But the japanes eshows itself are popular there.

The shows I listed are on minor channels, the handjob one, is a late-night show. But AFAIK not on an adult channel. But that doesn't obviously mean it's not a paid channel, though.

I was jus merely saying that they exist anyways.

I like it

Of course you do nancy boy

I mean, it says right there in the link that it's a paid, adult channel.

Saying "blowjob shows are literally on Japanese tv" is kind of a stretch when you're talking about a channel in the 500s with irregular broadcasting barely breaking 10k followers on twitter that hinted at (very likely simulated) oral sex.

>"blowjob shows are literally on Japanese tv"
I said they're TV shows. I was right. That is all I said, unless you presume you talk to the same guy the entire night.
If they're on an adult channel or not does not matter to my argument cuz I didn't make the original statement in the first place.

Great.

Works on my end

East and west have different philosophy and political perceptions of this medium. They go for the natural way things are with logical exaggerations but at the same time real social issues that people go thru to question and think for themselves.

The west mostly cares about profiting and not caring about quality art and progressions of it. Of course the business aspect is also important too; you do need numbers, statistics, funding and resources/supplies to keep things going.

In the manga she originally showed up for one chapter and turned Honda down if I remember right. Her being a main character was an anime only thing.

It's an adaptation of a Weekly Shonen Jump manga so yes. It's a really shit one at that. Just read the fucking manga.
