poketeased - inappropriate?

[breathplayslut]

So I was browsing the newest teases, and came across "Poketeased", and it made me kinda uncomfortable. One - creating a tease based on a theme that is clearly originally intended for kids is creepy enough, but if you're at all familiar with the Pokemon phenomenon, then you'd know that most of the girls depicted in the tease are actually waaaay underage as well.

So my question is, since the tease is a hentai tease, is it given a pass on the underage content?

[Nezhul]

you don't like it - don't read it. There were another anime teases with the images of characters that are originally underaged. You are overreacting.

I disagree Nezhul, fictional or not underage is underage and I think it's inappropriate too.

I had a quick look at the tease, only the first few pages. Though I guess the characters were originally intended to be for kids, they don't "look" under aged, I don't think that was the intention of the author.

However, I do not think it is an over reaction to feel uneasy about this kind of content and tease. It's definitely on dodgy ground.

Underage characters in hentai is a common "problem". If you look up the historical evolution of hentai you get the information that in Japan it was forbidden to show adult genitals, but it wasn't forbidden to show genitals of underage characters (cf. Lolita Anime). In the 1980s this restraint got changed and it's forbidden to show genitals in general.

That is the reason why many hentai characters are so young.

It's a PARODY of a tease. It takes the content and presents it in a way that wasn't intended. Pardy content is highly subjective.

Despite the characters' original intended audience, the tease creator is NOT targetting children with the tease. The target audience is ADULTS... plain and simple.

Personally, I don't care for these types of parodies. They don't appeal to me. Perhaps it is because there are children in my life.

But I don't find anything inapporpriate about them. It would only be inappropriate if the creator was targetting children, or included children -- but that's not the case.

As Nezhul stated: If you dont like it, don't view it.

I see nothing inappropriate here - there's nothing in that tease that aims to sexualize underage persons or characters.

Overreacting for asking a question? I didn't slam the tease, or request it be removed, I was just trying to clarify how the site administrators looked at this kind of thing. Seems like the only one overreacting to things is you, Nezhul.

[Nezhul]

LoL....

Did I offend you?
Going as far as posting a topic on forums with your concerns IS overreacting.

[breathplayslut]

Not offended so much as confused. I would have assumed that everybody had the same regard for minors that I do. The fact that there is a tease on the site (and from what you say, more than one) that has materials that may actually cater to underage persons, or mimic characters from television that are clearly underage, seems wrong to me. I was merely asking what the general attitude was.

I'd bet that a tease with models that are underage get removed. I'd also bet that teases that have any mention of a minor get removed. Yet a tease that has several prominent characters from a kids show on TV adapted for an adult topic is allowed. I was genuinely curious as to where the actual divide took place. I happen to like hentai, so please don't think I'm ripping a particular tease. I thought it was well written, proper grammar and punctuation, but as I said, I was a little creeped out that it featured girls that are (from the TV series' information) around 14, or 15. That's all.

I seem to remember reading that Japanese characters are designed as small and not under age and have been cleared of kiddie porn.

I've been meaning to comment on this one as well.

Two of the girls in that tease, specifically May and Dawn, are known to be 10 years old. Most of the others aren't aged by the creators, but they are said to be "a little bit older", still, these are clearly underage.

I've never really understood why this is so accepted around here when we set such high standards and rules for other things.

Personally, I think this is way beyond "don't view it if you don't like it", and yes, this is hardly the only tease guilty of this.

My thoughts exactly.

Having read all posts on this subject, it appears there are two ways to look this tease and people's reactions to it.

1. Is it in good taste? If that's the issue, then like some have said, "dont read it".
2. Legal. I'm not a lawyer, but frankly, is this a line anyone wants to go within ten miles of? I would guess the site admins would want to err on the side of caution.

I reviewed the tease, not because I enjoy Hentai. I don't, but out of curiosity on the forum thread. I would guess the author might want to edit out the graphics of the two apparently young cartoon characters and replace them with two of the more adult aged toons. Why draw attention to something that doesn't need the wrong type of attention?
