Let’s Anime 279 - Human Unicorn
Clears throat. Uncomfortably adjusts pants.
So, uh… son. You're getting older now, and there's something your mother and I think you should know about.
It's… anime.
Now, you're going to start noticing certain things. Like… girls with unusually large… personalities. And sometimes boys get transported to other worlds where they're suddenly very… powerful. That's called an isekai. It's perfectly natural.
Anyway, there's this podcast called Let’s Anime, where Dustin and Lindsay discuss these… feelings. They talk about Tank Chair, Psyren, Magic Knight Rayearth, and Firefly Wedding. That last one involves a young woman and an assassin who develop a very… special relationship.
And, uh… sometimes you'll see something called fan service. Now, there's nothing wrong with being curious, but just remember that real women don't usually fall over and accidentally lose their clothes.
Long, uncomfortable silence.
Look, some anime are good. Some are bad. And some… well, some you probably shouldn't watch with your mother in the room.
The important thing is that you find someone you trust, like Dustin and Lindsay, to help you understand what you're experiencing.
Pats son awkwardly on shoulder.
Anyway… if you have any questions, ask your uncle. He watches a lot of this stuff.
Gets up.
And, uh… clear your browser history, son. Your mother knows how to check.
