[up] eh, I don't like him much. He comes across as overly pretentious and prudish at points, in all honesty.

I mean, it kind of is borderline hentai, to be honest. Whether that's a problem or not is up to the viewer, but let's not pretend the show is that much more innocent than it looks.

I just don't find episode by episode video reviews interesting. I'd rather get any series or season reviewed at once.

I actually prefer borderline hentai to the real thing. More plot.

[up] Go read Monster Girl Quest. That way you get both actual hentai and a pretty damn good plot with some pretty neat music and so-so gameplay.

Huh, someone in Japan will actually use Valkyrie Drive as an example for a talk about feminine sexuality.

Butchered Google Translation

Although "VALKYRIE DRIVE - MERMAID -" can be expressed as Metonimy (metonymy) "Animation is an animation of Kanako Hiraku", "Yuri boobs animation that sets up the word" breast weight "to the character setting and categories "Sisterhood and lesbian separatism, positive affirmation that a woman desires for a woman, if you try opening the lid while setting it as a weapon that" When a girl gets sexual cum visit " was. It was a hybrid Queer animation that attracted viewers not only from heterosexual love male viewpoints, such as the relationship of lesbian couple "Lady Lady" that each other is "EXTER" and "Libreiter".

The most interesting thing is the representation of those who use weapons and weapons. "It becomes a weapon when a girl gets sexual cum, and it is a partner girl who uses that weapon."

It is difficult to intervene between those who use weapons and weapons here, between Exter and Liberator, Freudian reading "weapons are metaphors of females". The expression "a woman who becomes a weapon when a sexual culmination is reached by a caress of a woman" is a sex of a woman who does not lead to pregnancy, because it is a sexual cum that does not involve Phallus.

A weapon in "VALKYRIE DRIVE - MERMAID -" ("EXTER") is to hack weapons as a metaphor of the crowd by lesbianism. It may not be an overstatement to say "metaphor of clitoris". Of course, this lesbian representation is not unrelated to the voyeuristic desire of heterosexual male viewpoint, but its gaze exists as "a line of sight that can not be directly interfered".

A weapon as a "metaphor of clitoris" that has nothing to do with the feminine nature "living", a weapon that the woman used historically many, a queen-like weapon, a female nature called "birth".

Siegmund Freud, in dream analysis, stated that weapons like guns and swords, long tools such as umbrellas and sticks, water blowing faucets and fountains symbolize "male vessels" in their dreams There is a lot of non-false weapons even if it reads out as a metaphor (metaphor).

Oh the irony. Bhikkhuni gets banned over concerns over content and Mermaid that is far more explicit not only gets a full release, it even gets a dub.

Interesting details that were mentioned on /a/ about the series commentary

According to the Japanese audio commentary, Momoka was originally planned to simply be blasted out of existence in the ending but then Kuroda decided to give it a happier spin.

One other thing that stuck in my head was one of them (don't remember if it was the writer or director) saying they were worried about putting drive scenes and other service cuts in the last episode because it was supposed to be a dramatic serious situation (and they just had the mind-tentacle thing and that was it)

To be fair Japan is just like that:you can show all sorts of messed up stuff in anime and manga,but show dismemberment or too much gore in a video game and they have to censor it

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avIQ5aTA_tU The German release has the character bios translated on their "Booblet" Now I'm really curious to know what it says.

Also, the third and final volume of it will be released in August.

Real Question right there.

This content in its entirety should be CEN, but it has not enough otherwise.

Momoka's seiyuu weighs on the news

>Valkyrie Drive "was certified child pornography in the UK, and regulations and regulations are being regulated against various works and expressions in the country, I heard that this wonderful erotic manga is very popular and it is popular. Indeed this is horrible, erotic This is erotic. It is erotic that I want you to animate and fight regulation by all means.

Or, for a hopefully better translation:

"I heard that 'Valkyrie Drive' was declared as child pornography in the UK. There seem to be a lot of regulations against works from Japan. This wonderful erotic manga was included in these regulations despite being popular. Indeed, it's horrible that 'Valkyrie Drive' is being regulated just because it's erotic. I want you to fight this regulation and get this animated series unregulated without fail."

At least, that's the translation I came up with.

EDIT: That was odd. It took me, like, five tries to post this.
