So I was going to do a long post about porn and kink and getting turned on by things you find politically reprehensible and how that's totally okay except where I'm not actually sure it's totally okay and wtf is wrong with Yuki Yoshihara in the latest volume of Butterflies, Flowers and how well Ze does soap opera porn or pornish soap opera (like, the sex scenes actually demonstrate character!) and why is all of Genma/Himi's rape-rape-have-some-more-rape arc in print when Asari/Shoui's so-far-entirely-consensual-but-apparently-later-it-gets-into-the-dub-con-areas-in-which-my-heart-(that's-what-the-kids-are-calling-it-these-days)-delights mostly has come out neither in scans nor from 801, and 801 hasn't published a volume of Ze in a year and doesn't seem likely to continue, but I am tired and basically it all comes down to:
I made myself feel better by reading some nice Toko Kawaii, who never eroticizes rape and has only once sprung surprise teacher/student romance on me and even then she explicitly had other adults notice, explain that it was wrong, and fire the teacher in question. You're the best, Toko Kawaii.
At least Yuki Shimizu's art has improved considerably since Love Mode? The faces are still so much the same that I am extremely confused about who's supposed to be whom in color pics outside her usual coloring scheme, but at least it's a much prettier same face. Also, the hair is generally better. Hair is important. And Shoui wears glasses most of the time. That's important, too.
- I want Asari/Shoui scanlations. Asari/Shoui fic would also be cool. If you know of any, please hook me up.
- My superego has even more severe reservations about Kotonha/Konoe than it does about Asari/Shoui, but the rest of me totally want the bits that haven't been scanlated yet anyway. Damn it.
