That "eheh~" at the end was peak.

Gura absolutely knocked this cover out of the park with her chewy fluffy voice.

No way to know for sure...I discussed it with her, but it's hard to say... she's not a mental health professional. ...but she can become one...

~~The secret to making all those memes~~

"You're joking about talking with an imaginary girl in your head, right?"

"It's just for the memes, right..?"

"...right?"

"Ha... ha... Yes... It's just for the memes..."

~~"I'm sorry, if I don't say the magic words those people will give me the magic pills to take again and you'll disappear...!"~~

The actual reason a lottery was done: Like the selling of concert tickets, too many would volunteer if given the chance.

~~Unfortunately any kids made won't be coming back to Earth, though... so the birth rate of Japan remains low...but higher than if Earth got nuked.~~

It's funny when parodies of actual figures appear in Japanese media.

Everyone says you can keep going on, but nobody asks ~~if you want to keep going on...~~

Inspired by a quote on u/Mayczal's recent KS Alphabeth to update a reaction image made for this meme.

Then again, "He who has a Why..."

FLUFF TAIL MUST BE FLOOFED

Kind-looking grey-haired dude? Check.

Orange/gold-colored fluffy fox? Check.

...huh. ~~AU Spice & Wolf, maybe?~~

A game demo by a somewhat well-known NSFW game dev (of Strive for Power fame). That color scheme and fox-human partnership was pretty iconic.

Imagine being all the way at the back not knowing what's going on, and then you overtake some dude riding in a golf cart... and another dude in front on a Vespa...

Peak comedy.

You either get rejected long enough to become Sigma ~~balls~~ or you go off the deep end.

A quick and dirty meme after seeing the latest updates. Saimin? Really? But 50SOG with its dubcon (at best) is fine? Hmm.... I wonder why. u/kaigyuu2016 would probably have a field day with this.

I mean, I'm no fan of ryona/guro myself, but I don't go around telling others they can't access it (even if they might need a bit of Touhou Jesus after that).

Then again, I guess when you have money and monopolistic/duopolistic power in a market/industry, you'll try to reshape what society can see according to what you think is right... just like Steam.

I wrote some time ago that "this isn't stopping at looks = age, but going beyond that. It's anyone's guess where it'll stop."

If they don't stop at saimin... what's next, timestop?

u/Jaggedmallard26 nailed it pretty well... "You can launder money from drug cartels so they can buy heavy weaponry with a bank but god forbid you use their service to see a titty."

Fortunately, it seems like some in Japan are taking notice of this "make Japan and Japanese media conform to Western standards" and trying to stand up.

My condolences to our German weebs, though.

!When he said "This is as painful for you as it is for me", he did not know how true that was. Those laughs hurt so much.

"...I must dance."

And dance my good ~~monke~~ man did.
