Moe shall rule the world – Shagaku no Shana
Remember I have a prechant for long-haired girls with swords who are really really competent? Caving into boredom, I checked out Shagaku no Shana, a new series this season which looked as if it would have the appropriate character.
After ep1, my mind is reeling. Okay, yes there’s the girl with really long dark hair, a really long katana, whoopass attitude from hell. There’s only one problem. She has massive eyes, and she looks frickin’ 10 years old. With breasts.
Actually, all the female characters look like kids. The male fare slightly better, but only just. They are all supposed to be in high school I think, which puts them at 15 or 16. It’s wrong. All that eye candy and half hidden panty shots and half nekkid posing girls in the opening and closing, its all wrong!! God, help me. You can’t go around drawing little girls as sex objects and pass it off as saying they’re in high school. Moe has gone out of hand.
You know what’s really scary? The generation of otaku grown up on this crap, and Mai Otome, and whatever else… how twisted would that be??!
Then again, I grew up on Sailor Moon. Hmm. Guess we’re all messed up.
