cutelildevilsmom,

A friend and I were talking at work about overly graphic movies and books. As women, we don't actually need to see sex. It is so much more romantic when they leave it up to our imagination!

I guess that would include animated chacters as well!

I don't mind if it has nudity or sex, it has to have a good plot though. Look at Ninja Scroll, LOTS of nudity and sex, but the plot is amazing. Then again you have Spaceship Agga Ruter, which is all sex, no plot. Kinda lame.

HCIJ, I think that is simply the difference between men and women.

Depending on the movie in its entirety, we make the biggest difference to me, but honestly, I get tired of movies and anime with lots of naked chics. !!!!

Take for example Ghost in the Shell. There was some, but the focus wasn’t on the nudity. The truth is that is was a very well written thought proving story.

If it's just nudity for the sake of nudity, it bores me, lol. I can get porn anytime, but good anime is hard to come by.

HCIJ & CLDM,

I think that as women, we have simply learned to accept that most films including some anime there will be some nudity. To put things in perspective is that most nudity in films, TV, and anime is almost always about women. Rarely does it does it show male nudity. If it is male nudity, then it is usually the buttocks. I am not promoting male nudity nor do I think that nudity should be treated as a taboo. I simply do not think it is always necessary.

Now, that I have said that. I also think there is any right or wrong answer. It is simply about a person’s own personal comfort zone. Unfortunately, the media and entertainment world thinks sex sells, so they advertise it on overload. This sometimes becomes a little to much for a person such as myself. Since I know that it is my preference, I do try to stay away from Movies and Anime that focus on nudity.

P.S.

I just wanted to say that this has been nice discussion in which I have appreciated. We have had a lot of weirdo & jerks recently. THANKS - HCIJ & CLDM

favorite series is a tough one.


I love Robotech because of the characters & it doesn't paint wars black and white.

I love escaflowne (the series) because it is an beautiful love story.

Bubblecrisis (Tokyo 2040) because girls kick a$$ and the great character designs.

Gundamwing because of the story line, great characters, and american voice acting. Usually, I prefer subtitles, but I actually prefer the american dubbed for Gundamwing.

Mines right now is bleach..man I spent like over 100 bux on bleach stuff at a convention...well worth it though...for an all time favorite, I'd have to say Hellsing though. The ultimate OVA's are a nice addition.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned Dragon Ball.

HCIT, I simply never got into dragon ball like everyone else. It was the character design. I never really liked it. In addition, I tend to go for mecha, themes on war, vampires and so forth.

well im glad to see that nobody said Naruto was their favourite... gahh, I dont understand the hype with that show. I think its highly overrated.

my favourites were the Tenchi series, The Slayers, Outlaw Star, Happy Lesson and Cowboy Bebop.
