Its all the same to me me. I have seen sexually suggestive anime before, so have you, its all over the place. I think you really need to relax....You offered a very silly comparison, suggesting that if my nephews mom had a problem with sexually provocative cartoons of pre-teens, then she should have the same problem with war games that show no gore, or blood. That's like saying if she doesn't like the sexually explicit images, that my nephew couldn't even play Super Smash Bros, which is ridiculous on its face. My guess is that you are just a anime fanboy who gets to easily offended when their favorite medium is criticized in the slightest. You were to quick to defend it, and that raised some flags for me as if you were hiding something. But that's just me. As for getting this thread locked, good luck with that. You would be the only one pushing it...

Defending something you like is perfectly normal. You would do it too if somebody were to criticize something you like.
As for me I like Anime. I have many characters I like, some because of their design and some because i like the character.
To be honest i never understood why people are so obsessed with hating Anime?
Is liking Anime/ Manga a crime now? Judging some comments in this thread apperantly yes, which is completly nonsense and sad.

I'm going to need to stop you right there (if I can).

When you take trolls seriously and respond to them seriously, you lose.

There's plenty of red flags here, such as: An aggressive tone (from the very start to boot), the reference to a third party as the aggrieved, references to political leanings, appeals to morality under bad faith premises, and blanket insults to get a rise out of readers.

Either take the opportunity to poke some fun or move on. Actually engaging seriously is just a mistake that will get you nowhere.

People still responding to bait 2 days later.
This person is having a field day.

Seems to be a lot of threads about this rather cosmetic feature. The ships wont suddenly be wearing hotpants in game after all. I personally think the promo in question is not a particularly wise choice by WG, but im sure it will = $ for them.

If some of those skins aren't the ship equivalent of hotpants, then I don't know what is.

HMS Hunter's got some pretty short shorts, so something like that is probably what is. She's more of a colorful Bloodborne character than anything else though (ha ha paleblood hunter).

Anyway, you're probably missing the point of the fact that it's just commander skins, which aren't seen or heard by other players in combat (or ever, as far as I know). So it's not as if your boat suddenly has hotpants.

... unless you mean that flower prints on the side of the boat are equivalent to hotpants. Then we just disagree.

Yeah, I was talking about the ship skins. I could care less what kind of ridiculous commanders they wanna add. The anime characters are no worse than the space creature ones.

And if you don't think bright pink flowery skins are ship hotpants, then we're definitely gonna have to agree to disagree.

Ooooh nooo.

I raise you the glowy streaks on the ARP ships as being more like hotpants. Or... just the outright spaceships. They're more flashy.

Fair point. I could accept ARP skins being the official hotpants. That would make the pink flowery ones the official sun dress though.

The spaceships have more of a feel of glasses, braces, and the smell of loneliness.

The sci-fi stuff cracked me up. I did a double-take the first time I saw a Tirpitz covered in tesla coils and random arcing bolts of electricity all over the place.

Then the guns fired: ZOT-ZAP BLATT (moo) ZZT BLOOP (cat scream)

Me: I had no idea there were Space Orks in this game...

Bringin lasers to a gunfight. Some people have no honor.

It's well known though that ze Germans tortured cats on deck to increase morale and spread fear amongst the enemy. That's actually where the term "poop deck" came from.

Ah but that sometimes came back to bite them in the butt, as with "Unsinkable Sam" and the Bismark. Is it a coincidence that the cat was one of the surviors? I think NOT!

I need to relax?!?!? I'm fine.

Please re-read my post, the one you quoted, show me where I suggested any such thing. I can't help if you jump to wild conclusions because it fits your narrative.

Again, re-read my post, and read my response to Maj.Tryhard. Anime isn't even a blip on my radar, I have absolutely no interest in it whatsoever and I filtered it out in-game years ago. Reading comprehension, I would suggest learning it.

[ZugzwangGroo]

Yes, you need to relax,BIGTIME LOL.You are making an ass of yourself at this point m8. In the following post, you state, and I quote,

" So your nephew's mom is OK with him playing a naval combat game (glorifying a fairly brutal form of warfare in which 1000's of actual human beings were lost at sea), but some cartoon women in skimpy clothes and she's out.

I'll never understand why sexual overtones are perceived as harmful to young people but outright violence is not. If someone is too young and immature for the former, how could they possibly be mature enough to handle the latter?

TL;DR:
Kid: "Hey Ma, I'm gonna destroy a ship with 2000 sailors aboard"
Mother: "OK dear have fun"

Kid: "That girl is pretty"
Mother: "OMG MY SON HAS BEEN CORRUPTED BY JAPANESE CARTOONS"


So, I just posted they very thing you say that you didnt do. You infer that because my nephews mom doesn't want him to see sexually suggestive preteen cartoon girls, that he shouldnt play fictional war games with no blood or gore. You are a genuine grade A idiot m8. Butthurt and frustrated, forgetting your own posts, then telling peeps to quote you. Just stop, save what pride you have left and move on. Then when you are done with that, get back on your meds....LOL

trust me, it's not me making an idiot of himself. I would suggest you try reading who actually posted that because it certainly wasn't me......

Seriously, feeding trolls is bad.
