Astolfo Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 http://www.animemaru.com/new-episode-of-law-and-order-svu-focuses-on-otaku-culture/The most recent episode of the NBC crime drama Law and Order: Special Victims Unit has touched off intense discussion in the anime community. The episode, titled “Loliconvict”, featured detectives Benson (Mariska Hargitay) and Tutuola (Ice-T) pursuing an illicit doujinshi ring. The episode takes the detectives to an anime convention where they attend a boring panel discussion on the topic “what the hell is moe, anyway?”, and to several basements packed to the rafters with idol figures and dakimakura.Throughout the episode, the agents crack down on otaku and the recent “moe” phenomenon, hinted to be synonymous with child pornography. Otaku, the episode explains, are dangerous reclusive criminals who peddle explicit cartoons. Agent Tutuola apprehends one otaku early in the episode and uncovers his harem of wives (known as “waifu”) before remarking that the man’s waifu were “shit.”While many members of the anime community criticized the episode for inaccurately portraying anime fans as sexually deviant misogynist polygamist socially inept criminal weirdos, the writing staff insists that the episode was carefully researched.“Our writers spent hours poring over Anitwitter, /a/, and several major anime websites in order to make the episode as believable as possible,” episode director Warren Leight told Anime Maru.“In one scene, Detective Tutuola says that he read on ANN that Kirino was, in fact, best OreImo. That’s actually something we really saw on that website. See what I mean? We are committed to being authentic.”my watEDIT: Turns out the site is an anime satire website like the Onion is, sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutant Monster RAEG-HAPYP Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 I'm not much of an anime fan but this is just....all of my wat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tentacruel Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 Can't wait to see the anime fans go rape little kids. (edit: Oh episode's already out.) I hope we get plenty of amazing one liners like in the gaming episode. This is just bait. People should laugh it off as the trash writing it is and make memes about it instead of ranting.

Just Crouton Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 Honestly, I'm surprised L&O hasn't tackled lolicon and other related creepiness already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 Honestly, I'm surprised L&O hasn't tackled lolicon and other related creepiness already. Well since they've covered straight-up pedophilia, lolicon is...kinda tame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resident Fascist Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 Just....get out please. I was talking about the episode itself, not the people in this topic. After the travesty that was the Feminism episode, I can't expect this will be much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simping For Hina Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 Shard. you used the word "uneducated" to define a satirical prose, but you don't seem to know what that is. Please don't make this worse than it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
