The Place for Purging Porn and Pedo-Pandering (AKA P5 flag evaluations)

Re: Vampire Bund ep. 9

Nothing to report in the front half of the episode.

Update: Or the back half, either.

Verdict: Keep, clean if necessary

Pro:

• One episode episode entirely clean, two if you count the one I threw out
• All versions licensed in US, at least the anime is licensed in UK
• Censored releases exist

Con:

• Still some nudity featuring Mina
• One more anime to add to my ever-growing watch list. Goddamned spoilers.

Another bad flagging, Mind-Control Eyes.

Zapped.

Really? That's what, the fourth today? Maybe we should have the mods look into these before we zap them. Or maybe I'm just being overly paranoid.

That was me, doing a test.

A test for Komodin's patience? I'm sure it passed with flying colors...

Sorry for the double-post, but is anyone here familiar with An Ordinary Sex Life? It's just been flagged.

I flagged it. I've read it, and it is porn porn porn porn porn. Was surprised it went under the radar for so long, actually.

Showgirls may have been* intended for titillation, but it's clearly not porn. There's very little actual sex (is there any?) and there is most definitely a story. In fact, they've even shown a digitally-censored version on TV. I don't think anything that's actually porn could make that claim.

Of course, I think it's also the movie for which the "NC-17" rating was originally invented, so it might be worth having the P5 consider the question, if only so that we have an official record, but I think they've already passed on much more fanservice-y, full-frontal-nudity-having things.

* what am I saying? There's no "may" about it. But still.

edit: spelling

Well, if there's a PG-13 version of the movie, then I guess it would be safe to keep... meh.

I just got an idea that would help cut down on bad flags and hopefully wouldn't be too difficult to implement. Instead of putting the flagging button under the "tools" menu, create a new one specifically for the flagging tool to function as a Molly-Guard of sorts. Wouldn't do a damned thing about the trolls, but at least it would stop some of the misclicks.

Yeah I don't think Showgirls has more than a few nude scenes as far as explicit content is concerned.

Well, there's also that sex scene... that is, if you're willing to call whatever's going on in it 'sex.'

@Sachiko: You were flagging in good faith. If it looks sketchy, you can pass it on to the P5.

Re: Dance In The Vampire Bund

Occasionally NSFW, but ultimately of little issue. Has one (already mentioned) scene right near the start where Mina (the Really 700 Years Old leader of the vampires) is naked, but the fact that such a scene only happens the one time leads me to believe that it's purpose was in all aspects meant to bug the Japanese censors rather than pander to pedophiles. A few months later in-universe Mina even says that she only did it to creep people (or rather, specifically the protagonist) out and that when it didn't work, she didn't continue to see any point in doing it.*

So yeah. I could do a chapter-by-chapter synopsis if need be, but my current opinion, as based off my memories of the manga, is that it is not pedo-pandering, and definitely not pornographic.

Ok I have found a potentially flag worthy series. The characters may well be old enough for the standards, but they are drawn like little girls, mentioned to look like little girls in universe(And cheered up upon being told there are lolicons out there who will accept them for their underdeveloped body.)

The T Vtropes page states its sinen

Its A Channel, ultimately, I am not certain that it actually violates content, and I have a dog that seems to be trying to impale itself on my leg due to a fear of fireworks, so I can't really check it out at the moment, so I won't flag it in case someone else knows something about it.

(I'm a little concerned by the close proximity of Panty Shot: aveted, and going commando on the same page as well, but thats me imagining the worst case scenario.)

Ehh. Dogvomit. Whelp seeyall later! Have a nice evaluation!

While trying to look up a troper's edit history, I accidentally flagged the Western Animation page. It should not have been flagged.

I don't remember anything objectionable about A Channel. I would take a look at it tomorrow, but I'm going fishing in the morning and spending much of the afternoon drinking beer on my HOA's dime so I probably won't be sober enough to do things properly. If I have time between the fishing trip and my neighborhood party, I will do a review, though.

A Channel is fine. The art is merely done in the Puni Plush style. The Going Commando scene is meant to show how one of the characters, Run, is an airhead and you don't see anything. The lolicon scene was just Run being an airhead, again, while Yuuko was poking fun on the vertically challenged Tooru.

A Channel? If it weren't for the fact that somebody gave a reasoning here, I'd have assumed it was another misclick.

There's is nothing objectionable at all about that series, and the typical verdict of "Keep; clean if necessary" probably wouldn't even need the latter half said. I've seen worse on prime-time TV.

Actually, it's not even flagged yet. Or it's been zapped already.

He said he wasn't going to flag it yet, just that he was looking for an opinion on whether to flag it.

I haven't flagged it, but I'd like to suggest getting rid of the H-Game index. We're not supposed to have porn indexes, so it sticks out like a sore thumb. All of the links on it can be found in either the VN or JRPG indexes, so nothing is lost.

New thing flagged, an H-game called Shoujo Senki Soul Eater.

I think shima said that the H-Game index isn't a porn index. And it might be more of TRS business.
