Q: Can somebody tell me whats the name of this manga?

I have tumbled across this picture and thought i was so pretty. I need your help though to identify this manga. Thank you!

hentai

Earl Grey

12:20 AM

@Sakamoto I knew this tag would cause some problem

Memor-X

@EarlGrey only when it's an id request

Earl Grey

we shouldn't have that tag imo

Memor-X

@EarlGrey actually we never did have it before

just look it up, seems like it was created for this question

Earl Grey

yea since that question create whole 4 new useless tag

Memor-X

@EarlGrey yeh, just edited it to use at least anime-production

so now once that id request is gone the tag will go to

i thought we had legit questions on hentai using it

though it's funny

> I have tumbled across this picture and thought i was so pretty.

and you use hentai

of all the tags which get misused for id requests, you use that one

Earl Grey

12:25 AM

@Memor-X probably saying 'it was so pretty'

it'd be weird otherwise

Memor-X

not shoujo, not manga-history, not mangaka

@EarlGrey oh, i was reading it as it

Earl Grey

> I have tumbled across this picture and thought I was so pretty

it's weird it's funny

@Memor-X yea these tags usually used for id req sometimes

Memor-X

do you think we should ban hentai tag?

we could still answer hentai-related questions but the tag would contain some text screaming PLS NO HENTAI OK GUD

idk what kind of question would use hentai tag. we usually use anime-production for any hentai related question

or like this..

Q: Why is pornographic anime and manga referred to as "hentai" by non-Japanese sources? And when did it start?

Taisho

yea I think so too

Memor-X

2:26 AM

@Taisho i don't see any reason to black list it or anything like that but currently we don't have any questions which really need it

Taisho

@Dim @Jnat what's your thoughts on having a hentai tag instead of just using manga/anime production/history tags?

Memor-X

any henati related question i am aware of asks in regard to anime/manga production anyway so all the hentai tag would be is a meta tag

Taisho

I mean the potential problem is people who come here to ask for hentai identification

if we add banned tag text saying "WE DONT identify hentai here so please go away" it could help a bit

Tonepoet

@Taisho If people read the tag text, that would work, but they usually do not.

Earl Grey

we have 20 questions with word hentai by the way

oh man that reminds me, isn't it about time to delete all of our existing IDs?

Earl Grey

I think we already decide not to delete those

Memor-X

@EarlGrey some of those a tag would be wrong for like this one

Taisho

yea but we can raise the vote again

Memor-X

2:31 AM

@EarlGrey we decided to delete low scoring ones but keeping high scoring ones and retagging them

Taisho

see if anyone still thinks it's a good idea to keep them

Tonepoet

@Taisho Historic Lock would be a more appropriate option wouldn't it?

Taisho

eeeh it's had its time in history?

what about the rep people are going to loose?

like some were annoyed by that

support faq moderator-tools historical-lock post-notice

Taisho

I mean this is kind of an exception after all

it's the type of question which poisons the community more than the usual undesirable questions

if we got rid of them all and google stopped ranking us high for anime identificaitons, it could be more beneficial than keeping them locked forever

my opinion is that it would help us get fewer ids, and that not much would be lost

Tonepoet

I doubt it'd work like that. I think it's more likely that "Hey, these guys are supposed to be anime experts! Maybe they know what I seek!"

And they'd ask anyway.

Memor-X

@Taisho to be honest i think users will always try to ask id requests here and those question do indicate that id requests are off-topic

Earl Grey

as long as they find any anime q/a site they will ask anyway

Taisho

I see 5 sites which have copypasted the hentai id question, so it's not lost forever in history, it's preserved on copycat sites if anyone wants to google them

I'm not sure we've received that many ids before we made them officially on-topic, so if we change it back, their number might drop back down

but I don't have that strong of a conviction about this right now to push it on meta

for now I'm just interested in what people think about banning the hentai tag

Memor-X

2:40 AM

i'd just wait for someone to ask question using it properly

Tonepoet

@Taisho I don't know what the tag taxonomy is like, but I think having a tag like that encourages questions about the subject matter, which isn't necessarily bad in and of itself, but may become problematic if people are emboldened enough to start posting outright pornography on the website...

Earl Grey

@Memor-X some of these questions anime.stackexchange.com/search?q=is%3Aquestion+hentai can use hentai tag properly but they don't and it's totally fine

Taisho

I don't oppose hentai related questions but I think having the hentai tag around could be a reason for at least a portion of IDs being posted

so, again, not that big a deal, really

Memor-X

@EarlGrey no i mean a new question which actually does need it

Taisho

2:43 AM

Earl Grey

movies.SE doesn't have porn tag either. Don't know if they banned it

Memor-X

@EarlGrey to my recollection they don't allow asking about porn

no porn id requests. no porno movie discussions

@AnkitSharma can confirm *sets the trap*

Tonepoet

The other thing about it is that hentai is a rather unique part of our cant. A tag would only really be useful for two reasons: One is finding a hentai specific question that does not already use the word, and the other is removing posts which do use the word but does not primarily regard hentai. I don't really think the second case is really plausible, but what about the first?

Taisho

also tags are for specialists in an area to easily find questions they might be able to answer

gonna be a hentai pro

Memor-X

however porn and hentai are different things really. the difference between porn and an adult movie which features lots of sex (like Room in Rome) is that adult films have a proper plot to it and the sex supplements it. porn is weird situation bring 2 or more people together than sex for 95% of the film

Taisho

2:50 AM

is kuzu no honkai hentai?

Tonepoet

@Taisho Eh, I don't doubt the existence of a thing like that.

Taisho

no of course not

Memor-X

hentai on the other hand gets used for adult fiction like Aki Sora which actually has a plot and some westerners use henati on all Visual Novels with adult content (ie. Fate/Stay Night)

Taisho

in due time hentai experts and good questions will add to our site's collection

Tonepoet

So if we allow hentai, what about eroge, ecchi, &c?

Memor-X

2:51 AM

@Tonepoet as tags?

Tonepoet

@Memor-X Yeah.

Taisho

probably them too, coz if they have plot and characters, we can answer questions about them

Memor-X

@Tonepoet i can't see why ecchi would ever be used. eroge could be synonized with visual novel

Taisho

so what do you think is good airing currently

I only started watching blend S for the certain character and I skipped the 2 episodes before his arrival coz it got pretty dull

5 top shows are continuations of previous seasons and I haven't watched those

there's also Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou which seems promising, and Itsudatte Bokura no Koi wa 10 cm Datta. which could be interesting but because they're both rated so close to blend S, I'm skeptical

kino no tabi seems to be a remake of the original, so I'm not really interested in "rewatching" it

Memor-X

@Taisho Pingu

seriously though, there's been mixed opinions of The Ancient Magus's Bride and Fate/Apocrypha

2 of which i would watch personally if it wasn't for the fact they are both currently airing

Tonepoet

4:17 AM

Somebody was cheated out of their right to stardom:

Memor-X

@Tonepoet one of the Sega Hard Girls?

Tonepoet

@Memor-X Yeah: She's Mega Drive.

Memor-X

@Tonepoet yeh Superdimension Neptune VS Sega Hard Girls came out well after the anime

Tonepoet

The personification of what was by far Sega's most famous console.

Memor-X

i really can only recognize 1 Sega Hard Girl and one member of Gold Third until i actually play the games

Tonepoet

4:21 AM

Sega actually did a halfway decent job of it, She has some unforgettable elements of the original console's design:

However, I only say halfway decent because for some reason, they chose to have her A/B/C buttons on four separate parts of her outfit rather than varying the elements., and I think they could've stood to put some words on the spine of the book.

The on/off switch would've made for more better shoe buckles at least.

Also, headphones would've made sense since the megadrive does have a headphone port. It's the only console that I can think of that does actually.

Memor-X

4:37 AM

@Tonepoet you do realize they aren't 100% accurate personifications, after all why would you call the X-Box 360 "Thunder Tits"

and the PSP doesn't have sister issues to the PS3

Tonepoet

@Memor-X If you didn't say 360, I'd jest that Microsoft treated the xbox controllers were like boobs: The bigger the better. =P

I don't know how I'd personify a 360, except that obviously she has a white dress with an hourglass figure, and most importantly a red ring =P

Memor-X

@Tonepoet yeh, like i'm sure Vert represents the 360 because that was the rival to the PS3 which Noire represents based off from the fact that the originla game was on the PS3

Taisho

Memor-X

@Tonepoet No Red Ring on either form

though in the original game she did overheat and was bed ridden

IF nursed her

Tonepoet

@Memor-X Hmm, unlike Neptune, I can't see anything that would mark this character off as a video game console personification. XD

She looks like an elven Princess.

Memor-X

4:58 AM

@Tonepoet Leanbox in the original game was more medieval

even in Re;Birth they kept the medieval theme to it

the changed the design to be more modern after that

Tonepoet

Geeze, way to ruin the natural beauty of the island. XD

Memor-X

the other 3 are Planeptune (Sega), Lastation (Sony) and Lowee (Nintendo)

Tonepoet

Now I can't help but wonder why Alfheim Online didn't occur on floating islands like that.

Memor-X

@Tonepoet it sorta is on one giant island

Jotunheim is actually bellow all of Alfheim in the game

Hmm, Norse mythology...

the entire place is called Alfheim with the World Tree grounding out/through of the middle

Earl Grey

there's some sorta sign that my birthday is in the Winter airing season which Cirtus premieres in for 2018

there's Red String of Fate in Tears to Tiara which you can buy for 99999 from Epona. when you do Arawn-sama gets yet another wife (after his already increasing harem of several wives which he is still dumbfounded in how it's happening) but if you have the original fan translated version, from what i read Epona forces herself onto Arawn-sama and uses the red string to bind him

though i get the sense he was for it anyway, like it's twine and this is the Demon King Arawn-sama, he doesn't loose that much strength

@Memor-X It's probably not specifically a Tears to Tiara reference: The Red String of Fate is more broadly a reference to chinese folklore wherein the gods use it to link lovers with the inseverable bond of destiny. You'll see it referenced in anime frequently.

Memor-X

@Tonepoet oh i know that. i was saying that if what i read is correct Arawn-sama allowed himself to get tied up with red twine by a small elf who forces herself onto him

@Tonepoet still prefer Rin x Saber

then Sakura x Rider and Shirou x Non Magical Girl Ilya

Tonepoet

@Memor-X Bah, curse ye who sin through thine forgetfulness: What of Homura and Madoka. =P

Memor-X

@Tonepoet what do you mean? i havn't forgotten them

Tonepoet

@Memor-X I'm just joking, 'cause you hadn't mentioned them even though you really do seem to love that 'ship, and Madoka's more or less a goddess.

@Memor-X Also, I misread Magical Girl Ilya as Magical Girl Nanoha, so I didn't think you were only going for fate/series ships with that ranking.

Memor-X

@Tonepoet oh, allow me to correct that

Memor-X

@Tonepoet well it wasn't really a ranking. just my preference of ships where all good endings happen

Tonepoet

@Memor-X Oh, the Thens left me with the impression that you were making a list. Also, it really realy took me by surprise that you're 'shipping Ilya with Shirou. I think it's the first time I've seen you expresly mention a heterosexual pairing. XD I guess there isn't really another good option for Ilya in that continuity though.

Memor-X

@Tonepoet not officially but Nasu (or someone in Type-Moon) did mention there was going to be an Ilya Route but they were running out of time and just merged it with the Fste and Heaven's Feel Routes

but yeh i could have just as well said "fuck Shirou, he can be alone his entire life" but yeh he might be dumb and what not i'm not that much of an ass

though i could have said Luviagelita Edelfelt but the only reason i can think of without having played Fate/Hollow Ataraxia is that she just wants something that could be Rin's

Tonepoet

@Memor-X So what about Sakura and Taiga?

Memor-X

@Tonepoet what about them?

for Shirou?

@Gallifreyan are you awake?

Tonepoet

@Memor-X I don't know. I guess Sakura x Caster would be the obvious choice there.

Memor-X

@Tonepoet already said Sakura x Rider

Tonepoet

@Memor-X Ah... where'd my marbles go?

Memor-X

@Tonepoet i took them trying to yurify them before putting back in your head

Tonepoet

@Memor-X Let's see how long that lasts:

Memor-X

10:52 PM

@Tonepoet well i was thinking for Taiga, weird temporal kerfuffle where she is sent back in time to Iris

but Ilya could work to. Iris's love is inherited to her because Ilya is a magic baby

Tonepoet

@Memor-X I wasn't aware of that. XD Hmm...

Memor-X

@Tonepoet well Taiga does show up in Fate/Zero anyway when Iskander steals a keg of booze but there were these side episode things (sorta like the Taiga Dojo and Sword Art Offline) which featured Iris and Taiga

Tonepoet

Does Taiga ever learn that Shirou (and Saber) basically lied to her, and if she does, how much does she kill him? =P

Memor-X

but Taiga would be underage and her timeline would lead or Iris dying. temporal kerfuffle would be Zelretch and Aoko messing with their magic and Zero Iris is pulled to Stay Night Tiaga

@Tonepoet if she did and fought them i assume that would be in Battle Moon Wars

or in Fate/Hollow Ataraxia. there's a turn based battle game from screenshots i've seen in it or she could have challenged them to hanafuda

not seeing taiga in battle moon wars but seeing other funny stuff

Tonepoet

11:14 PM

@Memor-X I was thinking more along the lines of Taiga cracking Shirou's skull open with this during kendo practice:

Memor-X

Tonepoet

@Memor-X Since when did she steal Patchouli's headpiece?
