Marion, Tavia. The stories in GB1&2 are all around pretty weird.
Ash: A 28-year old German man with a jet pack on his back, who in some of the scenes between battles is discovered to be a pedophile
Flying excellence Tavia: A cute, bespectacled, preteen girl with a jetpack on her back. She is the niece of Ash from the original Gunbird. Emotional and cries easily. When paired with Alucard, she falls in love with him.
Pretty straightforward.

That's EXACTLY what you're doing. Is the sexualization of children, even fictional ones, wrong? Of course it is.
I never said I cared that much. It's not like they're doing anything explicit, anyway.
Of course it's ecchi. But like I said, I really don't care.
So you don't care about underaged girls being sold as sex symbols, yet you support this, yet you think it's wrong.

You're a hypocrite.

You got me. Well played. :oops:

Either way, I don't see how debating my own objectionable morals is really helping the topic of this thread at all, so I'll just leave now. Please forward any further discussion of this to me in a PM if you feel it necessary.

I feel the need to point out that the characters were named in the file name and I did not identify them until I pulled the URL

Well, i wasn't aware of Ash's story because i don't play as him personally (all i know on that front is based on my own experience of the game) but in Tavia's case... "falling in love" (it's something of a vague term) with Alucard isn't an issue as long as it's just a crush type thing that isn't reciprocated, how does the game actually deal with it?

You guys should love this.
Anyone who watches anime at all knows those particular characters. While it's a little bit hard to tell who they are from the small picture, generally the two red hair thingies is a pretty good indication. :wink:

The Handley case, well... It should never have happened, considering it's not actually against the law. But if you're posting that link you probably already know that its massive troll bait :roll:
