I'm going to provide another information thingy regarding Tottemo Pheromone so it can be resolved quicker.

  • When are the sex scenes located?: At the resolution of arcs. The story progresses through arcs for each girl and at the end the main character sleeps with one of them.
    • Are they spread out over the game?: Yeah, you find them at I guess 20% progress intervals until the ending which contains a few more.
      • How much gameplay is there between sex scenes?: Neither a particularly small nor particularly large amount of time.
    • Are they only at the endings?: No
      • How hard do you have to work to get an ending?: Depends which ending you're going for. If you want the apparently canon ending, you need to do everything correctly beforehand. That said, there aren't really that many choices.
      • Are they in every ending? Every good ending?: Yes
  • Are the sex scenes optional via a choice in the menu?: No
  • Would the story make sense without them with minimal or no rewriting?: No
  • Are the scenes made up of stills, or are they animated?: Stills
  • How explicit are the sex scenes?: Pretty standard stuff. No rape, no pedo stuff, just vanilla sex.
  • Personal opinion: I guess it's probably porn. It's not a bad story, I guess, but the plot of the game is about sleeping with girls so that someone can get magical power and go home after being cursed to wander the dimensions. It's fairly tame stuff and it has a decent plot so I can't really find much distaste for it like I did for stuff I flagged myself, but it's still basically porn.

Continuing with Bakemonogatari.

Take back what I said in second update. There was a blink-and-you-miss-it scene in which Araragi gropes (accidentally) Hachikuji. I never would have noticed it had he not commented on her chest at the start of ep. 5.

Update: At least he recognized that he was sexually harassing her and admitted as much. Really that strikes me more as commentary than pedo-pandering. So far, she hasn't been presented sexually (read: no fanservice shots of the fifth grader); Araragi just comes off looking like a pervert.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH has been passed. Even if it contains people faggarting suns.

Hunh. Then I'm really not clear on the rationale for Comics Nix. I'm trying to recall if there was something in his entry or works that would break the parallels between the situations.

That's commonly how Araragi and Hachikuji interact; he'll see her just walking by, sneak up, feel her up, get his ass kicked by her, and then the two start talking philosophy and contemplate their navels.

The show is weird like that.

[up]I know. As I said, I am familiar with the series unlike my previous evaluations. Merely presenting it because it may be relevant to the P5 in their decision-making process. Moving on to ep. 9 of Bakemonogatari. (Nadeko-Centric)

[down]Duly noted. May look at ep. 10 if I find 9 objectionable. Was already planning a look at 2 of Nisemonogatari.

Update: Nothing to report so far, however Nadeko has only been in the ep. for all of 15 seconds as of now.

Update the second: Finally shows, and she strips down. Unlike with Hachikuji, this is actually presented sexually. Araragi seems more embarrassed by the whole thing, but that doesn't really make things better. Will evaluate 10.

As an aside for people reviewing the Bakemonogatari anime, the episodes that I think could potentially be considered problematic are those focusing on Nadeko, i.e., Bakemonogatari Ep. 9 and 10, and the second episode of Nisemonogatari. As far as I remember, everything else is tamer than these episodes, and according to the thread on the Anime & Manga forum, this holds for the other light novels in the series as well. The other episodes are all more or less typical for the series.

I think the rationale for Comics Nix was that his fics did have explicit stuff in them, rather than just implied or mentioned or so impossible to understand what was happening.

Halfway through 10. Currently bumping up rating to borderline. Things are not getting better.

Update: Confirmation: borderline. Contains scene uncomfortably evocative of rape. Possibly to make viewer uncomfortable rather than titillated. Both Araragi and Kanbaru appear to be looking on in horror.

Update the second: Confirmation: supposed to be uncomfortable. Goes right into Araragi being attacked by the snake. Fairly brutal.

[up][up]I guess that could be true, though since the page was taken down it's tough to confirm. For my part, I don't recall that it's explicit in ways that Thirty Hs or Peter Chimaera isn't, or explicit about different things.

Or maybe the mods just haven't gotten around to restoring it yet. Hard to be sure.

[up][up]Nope, drama. For context, they are trying to remove a curse from her and things have suddenly taken a turn for the worse.

Ninja'd.

Anyways onto Nisemonogatari ep 2. Current assessment is still borderline.

[down]What is against the policy is the scene in previous episode which is supposed to be fanservicey.

Update: Ep. begins with Nadeko attempting to seduce Araragi. He ain't buying it. Fanservice from Nadeko ensues. Still nothing as explicit as scene in ep. 9, but questionable nonetheless.

Update the second: Remainder of fanservice includes, but is not limited to a rather gratuitous nude scene of Kanbaru, with conveniently placed books

One moment, please. Bakemonogatari and Nisemonogatari are licensed by Aniplex USA for distribution and Nisemonogatari is available on Crunchyroll. I am currently attempting to find the official US ratings.

About the Monster Girl Encyclopedia, the verdict was to cut it, but obviously it hasn't been. Is it because they came to another decision about it or something?

Read the thread there seems to have been some confusion over exactly what they were voting on.

It looks like they are going to debate using some bleached underpants manga as a redirect or something like that.

Ep. finishes with a rather amusing reversal of Araragi's bad habit of sexually harassing Hachikuji, courtesy of Kanbaru. Nothing explicit is shown.

Moving on to ep. 4 of Nisemonogatari.

Thirty Hs has no explicit sex. There's a mention that Dumbledore has sex with suns, and there's an ape (the Rape Ape) with fur made of penises, but no sex.

The pig of Hufflepuff pulsed like a large bullfrog. Dumbledore smiled at it, and placed his hand on its head: "You are Hagrid now."

[up] By what time? If I need to hurry my verdict, I can.

Update: First half of ep. clean. Second half was furo scene during which Araragi and Shinobu have a conversation. Combination of Censor Steam, Godiva Hair, obstacle placement, and camera placement and zoom keep things relatively clean. Of note: no "Mature Audiences" flag on Hulu.

Now moving to ep. 8 of Nisemonogatari. Will return to evaluation after dinner. I need a break.

Don't worry about hurrying it on my account. If those series haven't already been resolved by the other panels members votes (since it only takes three votes in one direction to resolve something), I'll catch back up when I return.
