A lot of folks just kinda abruptly stop posting and you forget about them, happens all the time. Generally they've just left or moved on, though sometimes you go back to look and find out the horrible truth on folks like him

Indeed. They did a good job making it the way they did (less :catstare: than the manga), and the rest of the ep was great.
Lookin forward to the rest of the show.

I mean on one hand the show lowered the skeev factor by making Kanna marginally less of a creep compared to the manga scene, but then we still had Titzalcoatl mashing her chest into a literal child's face so I guess it's a wash? I have confidence that this show will continue to be less skeevy than the manga though. Still crossing my fingers that certain characters will never appear.

Nendoroids are made by Good Smile Company, who pays royalties (about 3% or so) to the production committee per amount made and shipped to retailers if they are not on the committee for a show. As they're not on the committee for this show, they'd have to see if it makes financial sense for them to make a figure and if they have enough resources/space/time to do so compared to other titles that have more popular merchandise or titles where they are on the committee (like Little Witch Academia).

Kyoto Animation has made similar SD-style figures, but only for K-On! in the movie ending animation costumes. It's unlikely they'll make them for this series.

Oh, thanks for the explanation! A little of a bummer for me, but so it goes. I'll have to see if they come out with anything else for the show I want, I guess. :shobon:

It would have been less weird, slightly at least, if they had dropped the running gag about her getting naked around him all the time.

According to http://tl-notes.tumblr.com/post/157369362186/kobayashis-maid-dragon-episode-6-notes (roughly halfway down), it appears it's "nameaiko" (舐め合いこ), AKA the licking thing she does with Tohru mentioned in the third episode.

Normies getting bent out of shape over Maid Dragon continues to be both sad and amusing. All of things they find offensive, creepy, off-putting, etc in fiction I either enjoy or am indifferent to. I'd already encountered them in far more explicit circumstances in other forms of fiction and they didn't bother me then. It was always sort of oh that's a thing or I never knew that existed type deal. This is not even a case of desensitization. Like say you walk into your relatives house with their floors soaked with dog piss and the smell is so awful you can barely stand it, but over time you just got used to it. Nothing like that.

It's fiction. Part of our minds, the sometimes rational parts, knows that everything we see in Maid Dragon is nothing more than a series of ideas cobbled together and represented through writing, drawings, sounds, etc to simulate an experience. The simulation works so well it invokes real emotions. We cry and feel awful when a character dies as if a real person had passed away.

The manga ending to Usagi Drop, Shiro panties in NGNL, anything in Kodomo no Jikan? All that and many others never even remotely bothered or upset me. There's always been that very clear divide that keeps normies on one side of the anime and manga fandom. This is that divide. They see those things that are often considered in society to be immoral, unethical, unlawful, and wrong in the real world depicted in some form in fiction and cannot deal with it. Those fictional kids are being exploited or that fictional character is being molested or raped! This is not right! Someone think of the well being of the made up people in these fabricated events!

Incest? So? Rape! Your point? Child Molestation! It's not real. Can you tell? No matter how close to reality fiction depicts certain characters or events it's never anything more than fiction. It's sort of like The Treachery of Images painting by René Magritte. It's times like these I'm reminded how unlike most people I really am. Oh and by the way the censored line during the Lucoa scene at Kobayashi's pace was that she had raped her sister. Rape and incest at the same time! Now that's going too far! Delete! They apparently felt the mere mention of those things was too much. Wonder if the normies would have had a crying fit if they had left it in.

It's extra funny when you understand that by censoring the manga at points, but then not doing so at other points for the animated adapted they've actually made the blow harder for normies unfamiliar with the source to take. They had no idea what they were in for. No! Not my wholesome family dragon maid anime experience! My eyes! No! Get it away! Make it stop! I love the manga and I love the direction they decided to take it for the adaptation which is as it's supposed to be not a one to one copy, but a reinterpretation of the given material at least to a certain extent.

As far as the absolutely ridiculous notion that fictional immorality effects real people, I refer you to this image.
