[OOC] Yu-Gi-Oh: Spirit

RolePlayerRoxas said ....What? No seriously, what the hell are you talking about?

Vanguard originally started out as a Pedo show... It was supposed to be a romance anime between that blue haired shota and that red haired guy that looks like Howl, but the execs said no, and told them to re-write it as a Yu-Gi-Oh! ripoff.

And as for the cardgame itself... Yu-Gi-Oh! has few Pedo cards, the only ones that spring immediately to mind is Toon Dark Magician Girl and Gagaga Girl, However,a friend of mine actually built a Vanguard deck that he calls his "Pedo Deck" And of course, there's that card with the picture that you can quite clearly see her nipple through her dress.

i have no idea what you're talking about the show was created by Bushiroad to promote their card game and i have n idea about the card image im sure it would have been caught, edited and reprinted.

[RolePlayerRoxas]

He's speaking a load of crap, so don't pay it any attention.

[Keyblade87]

hahahaha yes ma'am
-snaps to attention and salutes-

1) Yes, it was, but in the original concept story that the creator made, it was supposed to be the Boku No Pico of Card Game Anime, aparently the game was supposed to be inconsequential to the story. Hell, parts of it even leaked through to the series, the guy that told me this showed me an uneditted clip from the show of the blue haired kid having a vision involving the red haired guy... He then showed us that same clip with a very appropriate song being played over it and it fitted perfectly. I don't know if he's telling the truth, but several other people at the shop confirmed it, and from what i've seen of that show... It would make a lot of sense.
2) Ok, it's not clear on the card, but my friend has a blow-up of it on a duel mat and you can quite clearly make out her nipple through her top. I have no idea what her name is, she's got blondish hair, massive tata's and a blue dress.

Dude, stop spouting false claims. Especially that pedophilia stuff.

[Joshua Tamashii]

Frankly I'm curious where you going with thing Matt. Care to explain your accusations in detail?

[mattmanganon]

I'll ask my buddy what card is on his mat when I see him next... And, sorry if what i'm saying offends you, i'm just used to talking like this at the shop, it's just a regularly accepted thing. There's no harm in it, it's less "Vanguard is disgusting because it's a show for pedophiles." more "Oh those japs and their crazy culture." I mean it's not like Japan isn't known for weird shit.

(Seriously, I dare you to read the first volume of Transformers Kiss Players, I tried... Once... And afterwards needed therapy)

[RolePlayerRoxas]

Except nothing you said is even remotely connected to Vanguard. At all.

And generalising all anime and manga based on something universally hated by everyone, Japanese audiences included, doesn't really sit well with me.

[Joshua Tamashii]

calm down Roxas, don't going swinging your keyblade at the computer. Just let it slide for now.

[IVIasterJay]

Xenophobe and otaku, please chill you two. No fighting in the OOC.

All I am saying is that "God Dammit, Japan" is an internet trope for a reason. I get that there are cultural barriers, some of which piss me off due to their incompatibility. Fuck it, we aren't getting any more Heroman because the American mainstream just isn't ready to see a main character that looks like a girl... And in that one episode, get dressed up like one for spying purposes... My point is that I understand the cultural barriers and I appreciate them, but there's no reason I can't make fun of them, because I know that, in their country, they are doing the same about me:

"Look at me, i'm Scottish, I barely have 2 braincells to rub together to keep warm. Our cheif exports are Pregnant 13 year olds and whisky that could melt through titanium... Or at least, they would be if we didn't drink it all. I can't so much as look at a pig without gouging out its bladder to eat."

Or

"Look at me, i'm Welsh, I assrape sheep so often that they don't make a sound anymore when they fart."

So why is it ok for them to do that about me, but when I go. "So... Japan does some weird shit." Suddenly it's wrong.

It's funny, I've been on multiple communities for this game, and have met people from multiple states who play the game, and haven't ever heard that one before. The main characters swinging the other way, sure, but gosh that's curahzy

But I guess I shouldn't get into it, don't want to drive this train off its tracks even harder.

[IVIasterJay]

So do we duel here or in titanpad doing one giant collab?

[VarionusNW]

I would prefer titanpad,myself

[Keyblade87]

Gah im so excited for this all to start XD

[IVIasterJay]

Since collab posts tend to take a while, what if we posted what we had every ten turns or so to give the others something to react to / comment on?

[Joshua Tamashii]

Sounds like a plan

[Zagan]

made a post, dont know who is busy with and whos not lol

[Van]

Would 1 duel at a time really be the best option, or should you guys go for multiple duels at a time? I say this because of how long a Duel can last, and with a 16 person duel, unless the two people fighting are constantly posting, the action will slow down to a grinding halt.
