I read an interview with a guy who translates the Yakuza games and the subject of the sexy minigames came up, which is something that Sega used to take out of the western ports of the series. He basically said that there's no way they could take them out anymore, because there would be so much backlash.

🤔

Is the backlash real? I assumed it was mostly breathless videos posted by a few dudes with anime avatars.

I know they cut out good stuff as well, and it can be argued it messes with the vibe of the series, but I actually really like the way they handled the hostess stuff in Yakuza 3 by keeping them in, but instead of having to waste hours on the mostly boring hostess dates, they reshape them as aggressively forward women who hang out in burger shops. So you get the fun side quests and still get to sing karaoke.

Now's a good time to start saving often, maybe in multiple slots. I don't really remember how Persona 4 handles restarts in these scenarios, but some of the upcoming dialog sections are important for determining what ending you get.

Season 1 was cool but season 2 has been amazing so far.

I'm debating watching what's been made of season 2 thus far but then I dunno if I'd rather wait and binge the whole thing

I didn't even expect to binge watch season 1 yesterday, I thought I'dwatch one or two episodes just to see if I liked it. I guess I did :v:

Now I have to check [Shokugeki no Souma] out. Thought it was a dumb show about food.

I tried to watch it once, because I really like cooking and would be totally down for a dumb show about food. I watched as a high school aged girl ate some food and then acted like she was cumming, then another high school aged girl was forcefully fed octopus and it did a cutaway to her being stripped and raped by a giant octopus. This happened within the first 3 minutes of the first episode. I stopped watching at that point.

It was basically all of the things I completely hate about anime.

The only anime I would consider watching are Jeff Gerstmann-approved Polar Bear Cafe and Wakakozake.

Also possibly that one with all the cats and the cats each represent a different country

Wakakozake might work for you

Edit: Also I might watch that basketball anime, I have only seen clips of it and I should really watch the rest since those clips are amazing

I just find them really tedious and lovely gameplay wise even putting aside the monstrous sexism, and fun moves and unlockables are gated behind them. So in my view removing them or at least greatly truncating them would be a 100% improvement.
