I don't think Cardcaptor Sakura had any cursing to censor. But they censored a lot of relationships. The original had a lot of unusual relationships- Homosexuality, incest, teacher-student, large age gaps...
I really love CLAMP's approach to love. They have such tasteful depictions of unusual relationships. I love how they don't judge or fear-monger.
.___. Ahaha... I'm not sure what to think of Sailor Moon Crystal. I understand that it focuses on the relationship between Usagi and Mamoru, but I really hate how the other Sailor Scouts got pushed to the side.
Like- At the very end, the other Sailor Scouts had to kill their boyfriends. And then Mamoru died. And Usagi resurrects him... But then I was like- What about your friend's boyfriends?
Not cool Usagi.
I love the opening tho. xD
asdf. Fairy Tail is one of my favorite mangas. I love the nakama feels. It has a few stereotypical shounen manga pitfalls, but it makes up for them.
Erza Scarlet is amazing. If I could be half as amazing as Erza fuckin' Scarlet, I'd feel I've accomplished something with my life. <3

What I know about the Sailor Moon Crystal is that, it follow closely to the original manga storyline. I read somewhere that the rest of the Sailor Scout was potentially pair off with the 4 king? Not sure what is their English equivalent. That being said, in that same article, the manga artist also said thay was just potential, not confirmed.
Annana, I have no prejudice with homos. But I have preference in reading story. I prefer hetero romance more, prefer male to be older than female. CLAMP lost me somewhere there. Not that I matters to them. Lol. I do think they are awesome artist.

um... There is in manga I've read.
Saver (I think I talked about it before, though), lol
Blood+ is almost like saving a knight?
Though Saiya takes forever to succumb to her nature.
Maybe Claymore as well? Though the main character is more of a bodyguard?
And this one: Crunchyroll - Hanasakeru Seishonen Full episodes streaming online for free
I think that's about it xD

Oh, okedokeys!
Pff, well, to be honest - I had crushes on older guys when I was little. So... that kind of thing is real, ya'know? I also dated a High School person while I was in Middle School but I broke up with him. When I was in the 3rd grade, I shortly dated a 5th grader? It's not unusual to me but I guess it's more like play-dating at that age.* I can understand the censorship since they wanted to keep it PGish for the other things.
The odd relationships they play on just annoy me.
Other than the main couple that it's supposed to be about, I don't care for the supporting characters. xD*
Yeah... I didn't realize those freaks who worked for Queen Barrel were the scouts boyfriends. I never read the manga, so... I'm still kinda iffy on it? I think Serena only has a limited ability to resurrect in the beginning? That could be why.
In the end of the Sailor Stars series, everyone dies because of Galaxia? (I can't remember her name) And she resurrects them all. She somehow is butt naked throughout the whole thing, though. But I understand how you feel.
The scouts are not as prominent as they were in the beginning.
But Serena was the one kinda pushed aside in the original, strength wise. She was too dependent on the scouts before.
I also disliked that Rini actually kissed her father on the lips? That is a bit of incest, lol
And I miss Rays grandfather.
aww <3
She is the backbone of the whole team for Natsu, Gray and Lucy.

Yep. That's why the creator* wanted to redo SM. I guess he felt that it didn't turn out the way he wanted it to in the beginning? He wanted to follow closely to the story this time, which I don't understand because it went on for forever. Except the Sailor Stars series, it never was converted to the US. I had to watch it online with english subtitles on YOUTUBE?

:/ Eh. I think its pretty prejudice that a usual relationship (between a male and a female within the same age group) can be depicted in PG material, but other kinds of relationships have to be censored.
Also, Chibi-Usa does have a crush on the Mamoru. When she became Dark Lady, she brainwashed him into falling in love with her. But it never struck me in a bad way- I don't think Mamoru and Usagi feel like her parents to her. She treats Mamoru and King Endymion differently.

I don't think I read anywhere Raye kissed her father in the manga? That means I really should watch the anime now. lol.

? Well it was the 90s, yes? Or at least somewhere around there. There's always been echhi?/yaoi /bl, so, they've never been prejudice to that sort of thing. You just have to understand its confusing for kids to accept the comcept of a gay couple, that show is made for kids. Nowadays, they're throwing homosexuality into everything. xD
Real tv shows, that is.
Idk about cartoons, though, they always throw hints about that stuff in.
Yeah... but still, its all bleh to me. Its like they wanted her first love to be her father. And its not like he looks any different from King Endymion. Thats one thing thats fluffed in SM, everyone looks the same. It doesnt matter if they're dressed up or not, there's no difference.
Even if she turned wicked, I would think she would want to murder her father along with her mother. In SMC, it shows that both of her parents hadnt had time for her and I would think she would want to do them both in, including Darien because he's identical to his future self. xD
Its all just huffle fluff to me.

Ohh, okay. Sorrysorry ;;
Nono, Ray doesnt kiss her grandfather.
Rini (the dark lady) ver, kisses her father Darien (from the past) in SMC.
Rays grandfather just doesnt appear in SMC.
They only show her and the shrine, thats about it.

You have a point about the time period. But in recent times, I don't think, "It would confuse the kids." is a good reason to exclude unusual relationships from the media. And I'm glad that they're starting to normalize it a little more, with things like Korra and Asami and Princess Bubblegum and Marceline. I think a big part of acceptance and tolerance is seeing unusual relationships normally.
Well, Chibi-Usa's behavior toward Mamoru never struck me as weird because a lot of children "love" their parents or family members. Like when my cousins and I were growing up we all swore we'd marry our grandmother and take care of her forever. xD I think Chibi-Usa had a similar innocent "crush" on Mamoru, and she'd act on it like she saw the adults act on their feelings of love. Nothing creepy, just a kid who doesn't know better.

Ha! Remember the days when Homo was creepy. Now you are hitting on incest. Who knows it would be 'liberated' in future?
Polygamy was considered ok in ancient times, now Monogamy is the way to go.

@ anna;; Well, the media knows it all depends on a childs age on who they are, if they grasp the fundamentals of it all. I get it that some kids develop faster but others don't. Most parents want the opportunity to explain the whole new relationship dynamic before others do. Same thing with health classes, a lot of parents didn't like that. To be honest, kids are not mature enough to learn about those things until 8th-9th grade? I know from experience.
I highly doubt that parents let their children watch TV much anymore, especially since the US is in a complete health reform due to the problem with obesity. That, and since the cost of living is going ^up, a lot of people have become conservative of letting them watch TV/video games. So, TV isn't going to help them very much anyway (especially if they are Amish/in a technology isolated tribe). Its up to the parents regardless, really.
ah, I don't think the media is purposely excluding it anymore? They are slowly migrating the idea of same sex relationships into cartoons. To take same sex seriously, I think it's better that they integrate it into real TV shows because it's "realism" instead of "fantasy." Fantasy doesn't really help serious issues, it's more for kicks and giggles or things that do not exist - exist (unless they're educational shows like pbs). Anime, though, has always been gay orientated. ^^
Yeah, it's cool that Adventure Time has implemented different relationship dynamics.
There's not really any good cartoons playing anymore besides that, and the Amazing World of Gumball + We Bare Bears.
They are turning "Bunnicula" into a cartoon series, though. I think that's interesting <3 I had the original paperback book of that story. I think I prefer the cover art rather than the graphics they're doing for it, it's the same as the updated Tom & Jerry cartoon.
lol I get kids loving their parents. It's the being in love to the point where it goes beyond normalcy is where it goes off the rails. For example, I don't like seeing parents teaching their kids to kiss them/family members straight on the mouth IRL (not a peck - a real kiss), even when they are teenagers/adults. It's not a normal thing to me and not something I would teach to mine.

? No, if you don't like it - you don't like it. No one can force you to like or dislike anything.
That's why no one can be anyone else but themselves. xD
I wouldn't say that. People prefer certain colors, it's not like hating the race itself.
I have a couple of friends of color (otakus) who only prefer fair skin more than others.*
Incest will never be liberated, lol. That's one thing I think all sexual orientations can agree on, is that incest is taboo no matter what. It's not just a word, ya'know? It causes diseases, deformities, and etc. There is no understanding, accepting or pros to argue for normalcy.
Ancient times are ancient for a reason for it's uneducated, chaotic shame on the human race. Except the architectural achievements, innovative and geniuses that created the first refrigerator, discovered remedies/cure diseases and etc.

I don't think that unusual couples are completely naturalized in the media because it still causes quite a stir if an unusual couple appears on an couples advertisement, or if an unusual couple is confirmed in canon. It'd be cool if a gay couple could exist in media without being pulled into the spotlight or made into a plot device.
I just don't think there should be a stir or should be any reason to call in the children and explain what's going on to them. If they can understand that a young man and a young woman can love each other, there's no reason they can't understand that a young man and a young man can love each other, or an older man and a younger woman.
Incest is usually a no-no, but I think there's room for some exception. There are stories of people who were born from the same mother but raised by different families. Then they meet each other and fall in love, only to find out that they're related. I don't think it should be considered incest in those cases, but of course, I still wouldn't want them to have children.
I don't think Mamoru or Usagi taught Chibi-Usa to act romantically or sexually towards them. I think she's just an innocent mind that's too young to discern between familial love and romantic love. She probably picked up the kissing from seeing couples kiss. I can see how, "This is something that's done between two people that love each other very much." could become, "Oh, I love Mamoru very much! I want to kiss him too!" My best guess is that the young Mamoru and Usagi don't know how to handle the situation without hurting her feelings or confusing her, so Mamoru ends up humoring her and Usagi ends up getting angry and jealous.
o I remember Bunnicula. How are they turning it into a cartoon series? I don't think there's enough material for it to be a very long series- Unless they're adding in more content?

@ anna;; True. But kids shows are now at a earlier time slot. So, they don't really get exposed to advertisements with those kinds of couple dynamics. That and they're usually on a schedule themselves too (forgot about that). I would definitely make a schedule for mine when I have them to keep them mostly out of the house. They've made home entertainment too much of a hermitage, lol.
Yeah. I think it'd be better if pbs did a special learning cartoon segment on the couple dynamics, when they're starting out.
Then that way, it won't catch them by surprise? I would suggest leap frog but I think that's mainly for educational academics?
Well, you can't not not have them to make children. If they're in love, there's no boundaries. xD
I mean, if you're not related by blood (only by marriage/ idk how they go around that) - then that could be the only exception really?
It's just different the way she became once dark than her child-like self.
That ^ has a adult possessive element to it rather than this one:

I think ^ that one was an accident in that ep?
But yes, he always enables her.
I kinda didn't like that part about their relationship because that's why Serena and Rini are always at odds.
Especially when she can't even put 2 and 2 together that Serena is Neo Queen Serenity and her mother.
It's all very frustrating
Yeps! I think there was only 1-2 books over it?
I think they're just going to create episodes from scratch like they do with Bugs Bunny in his new updated show "wabbit"
Bugs has a new best friend that's a squirrel p:

I only had the 1, I think.
I don't believe they made anymore. It's like that book, the mouse & the motorcycle.
They did make a movie of the mouse one ^ they added it on Netflix once.
Idk if it's still there, though.

I think a special learning cartoon would be the opposite of helpful. A big part of acceptance and tolerance is when something can exist without needing to be treated in a special way. That's what I think the media is lacking- Just unusual couples being couples without having the unusual characteristic of their relationship being the defining feature of their relationship.
No, but I would only be okay with "incestuous" couples in that special case if they were sterilized. I don't think people should be allowed to reproduce when there's a significant chance that their child will be deformed. But since this would set a precedent for eugenics, I doubt it- or incest- will ever be accepted.
When Chibi-Usa became Dark Lady, it was only her body that matured. I think she still had that ignorance toward what is and is not acceptable between Mamoru and herself, and it was further corrupted by the dark forces that transformed her, and that's why she was acting the way she was.
I don't think Mamoru or Usagi are acting too badly considering the circumstances. Neither of them were ready to become parents when Chibi-Usa came into their lives, so it makes sense that they have no idea how to handle her childish antics and that she strains their relationship a great deal.
No, I remember at least a couple of books. There was Bunnicula, then The Howliday Inn and its sequel, The Celery Stalks at Midnight... I also remember that Howie got a spin-off series.
Oh, I've not watched Looney Toons in a long time. What's with the squirrel?

Miroro is so sure about incest would never be liberated?
Seeing that many mythologies are actually all about incest. To me, I felt same sex is unnatural. I don't understand why people can accept same sex relationship but not other taboos. Is having high possibility of having deformed child a reason to object incest? Now then that sure makes sense that same sex relationship is acceptable. Is that fair though, to ban a relationship because of offspring issue? Since the whole thing about relationship, children is not the reason why they are in love. (I would assume, in normal romance, they should start with feeling then action on having baby.)
My bottom line for open minded is, one true love. The most impossible one. Which mean, I am not a supporter to Polygamy at all. lol. I am also not that okay with remarries. *shruggs* I know there is a house of theory saying we are capable to love romantically with many people. If those kind of love is easily replaceable, then what makes 'love' special?
as for intimacy of family member, I am quite conservative. lips is reserve for your half, not your family. Even though they are babies.
By the way, I thought I read somewhere Chibi Usa is actually 900 years old, stuck in a young body?

The main argument against incest isn't deformed children. Its that its really easy for an older family member to take advantage of a younger family member. Its easy to brainwash someone from infanthood. This is why I'm against incest in general, but I'm more open to the idea of relationships between people who have genetic ties but no familial ties.
I don't believe in the concept of a one true love. You are compatible with a lot of people. What's special is not the number of candidates, but what you make with the candidate or candidates of your choice.
I think its silly to be against divorce. Are you also against breaking up? Because there's no difference between breaking up with someone and divorcing them. The only thing that marriage changes is your legal status, and that has no relevance to the relationship itself.
I don't think Chibi-Usa is 900 years old. Or at the very least- Not at her first introduction. Even if she had a small body, with that much life experience, it would be extremely out of character for her to act like a child.

I just think if love is that easy to be together and break up, it is not so treasure anymore. The moment they divorce or break up, it is no longer love anyway, making me wonder what is the whole point? Do you think having a bad ending to a relationship would make the relationship a cherishable one? I so hope not to have a failed relationship though.
I don't really care about the so call 'marriage' system. What I meant was how people can change their feelings that easily. In short, I am against any relationship that don't work out. Of course, no one would know what happen in the future, but once it is broken, it is broken. At the end of the day, I also know that feelings are not something you can easily control like your hands or feet. Just like how people change, few years ago they like A, few years later they like B, then in future they like C.
Any older people can take advantage of other younger people regardless them being in family or not. I won't deny maybe being in closer range it is an easier opportunity. When you mean older, do you mean by age or generations? Oh well, some non close relative couple have huge age gaps, won't that also count older people taking advantage?
Lol, I actually did google it up. Chibi Usa is indeed 900 years old when she first fell down from the sky. Her growth was somehow stuck due to unknown reason. That is also the reason why she was attracted to the Black Moon's creepy man's offer or temptation. To be able to gain a body to her respective age. There are a few instances where she acted really cool, especially the first few chapters when she just arrived from 30th century.
hmm... maybe I should keep things to myself before it turns ugly.

@ anna;; It would be more serious rather than making it like comedy, though.
Little kids are introduced to pbs, sesame street, dora the explorer, bob the builder and etc first before real cartoons.
When they are allowed to watch real cartoons, it'd be too late at the point too.
So, trying to rely on cartoon network to reform isn't going to be helpful either xD
I don't know about that... I just don't believe in blood related incest, period.
But I do agree that people who are prone or have been tested that they'll have deformed children, shouldn't conceive.
I would rather want them to adopt, to give a real child a home rather than selfishly having one of their own. I've watched a TV segment of a family, who knew and had a baby girl - she is 100% brain dead and 100% cannot function. She just sits in a baby seat all day, gulping like a fish and her eyes revolve around and around. The mother changes her when she needs to, carries her around like a rag doll, and stays at home 24/7 to take care of her. And the mother keeps taking her to the doctors, hoping for some experiment for her to reanimate brain function... It was so awful, I changed the channel.
I'm not entirely sure that's all that happened to Rini? She wasn't that devious or clever when she was younger. And once she transformed, she suddenly knew how to be wicked? But oh well xD I just wonder how they're going to replay the whole Pegasus part with her. He was technically supposed to be her first physical love during the dream mirrors.
Ah. I think I may have read those titles? I know I only had the first book, though. ^^
They've completely remodeled all the characters in "Wabbit"
The Squirrel is just his nature friend, called squeakers/cheekers :p
videos of wabbit: http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/search...eywords=wabbit
@ xu;; Yes, I am. There's no argument for it, honestly. Just because that's how the royals did it to consume power and political hunger or how abusive neanderthals controlled their womenfolk, doesn't mean it's going to be accepted in modern times. It's not just because of diseases or deformities - it's wrong, regardless.
For SS, I never accepted/rejected it. I just don't care?
As long as it's not affecting my life or in the future, it's not my problem.
But I said, you cannot believe that if they do fall in love that they won't have a baby.
Have you watched the movie Blue Lagoon???
I don't think I will ever fall under that theory of loving anyone or everyone.
It may be because of the way I've grown up and the things I've experienced but I hardly love anyone.
Like people, sure. Trust people, rarely.
I've only ever been in love with the person I'm with now since I was 13. I've never wanted anyone else and will never be with anyone else. I kept school life/outside life separate as much as possible. I never wanted to be a statistic for pre-teen or teen pregnancies. That's just how I am
If people can change their feelings so easily after such a long time or hiding the fact that they've been cheating, then they never had any "official feelings" for each other. It may have just been an idea? Or the fact that they don't want to be alone, tired of searching for someone to be with or they think it's a relationship of convenience. Then those kinds of people should have thought a bit longer on their future together rather than living in the moment. I know a lot of people argue "if you don't live in the moment, blah blah blah" - it just doesn't work out 100% of the time.
@ anna (2);; That may be the literal take on marriage to people now.
But marriage is more than a legal status, it's a statement and tradition.
I don't believe it's just a status or just a document.
It means something more to me that doesn't to most people.
And there are still common laws in some states: Common Law Marriage by State
So, even if you don't believe in marriage and you fall under those who accept common law - marriage is automatic.
aha. Yes, Rini is that old. They even mention it in the cartoon. After a time, Serena and her people stopped aging when they become 20 something??? So, they kinda became immortal-ish? I don't know what happened to Rini that made her underdeveloped. I'm not sure they even really explain it clearly. I just assume something happened in the past that affected Rini in the future???
At some point, the future does change because Serena suddenly as a 2nd daughter - mini mini moon in the Sailor Stars series.
Idk if they're going to redo that series as well? They never converted it to the US - so no one really saw it besides Japan?

I separated love and trust differently. You can love but not trust the person. It is kinda sad in my opinion. But as I said earlier, feelings is not something you can easily control like moving your fingers. Seeing that the norm now treating love not so 'sacred'ly, I don't have the confident in people as well. I don't even have long term friends at all. One reason being I am lazy in socializing. lol. XD
Oh gosh, I actually thought chibi chibi moon was chibi usa's daughter. XD
Anyway, anime and manga had different facts about Chibi chibi. Manga one mentioned chibi chibi is an alternate form of Sailor Cosmos. Not sure who this Sailor Cosmos is...

No, I think it would defeat the purpose if the show had to be more of anything- more serious or more comedic- to include an unusual couple.
For example, Adventure Time did a really good job- Princess Bubblegum and Marceline were once in a relationship, and their behavior toward each other implies it, but it has no bearing on the overall show. Its not the focus of anything- Its not a subplot, it didn't get its own episode. It doesn't even come up in conversation.
And that's the kind of exposure I think there should be more of. It doesn't have to be serious. It doesn't have to have any sort of message or moral. Its just couples. Existing.
What's innately wrong with relationships between people with genetic ties? The arguments you brought up are logical arguments against relationships between family members. But there's more to family than blood.
I don't see any logical arguments against relationships between people who only share genetic- and no familial- ties. I mean- We're all genetically tied one way or another, but its acceptable for us to love and mate with each other when our significant other was raised in a different familial unit.
If two individuals were born of the same mother but raised in two entirely separate and different familial units, then its entirely possible that they could come to know each other as lovers first and lovers only without ever realizing that they're siblings. At that point, I think it would be absurd to tell them that they're siblings just because they shared a genetic ancestor.
Aw. So no Daffy or Taz or Elmer? But... "RABBIT SEASON!" "DUCK SEASON!"
Whatever meaning an individual or a culture puts on the marriage, its something they choose to associate with marriage. Personal feelings aside, marriage is a legal status. There's no difference between marriages and relationships other than the legal benefits- there are doomed marriages and permanent relationships- so I don't see a difference between divorce and breaking up except for the breaking of legal ties.
... o___o Seriously? Unless their mental development also stopped with the aging process, that doesn't make sense to me. Chibi-Usa does not, in any way, act like someone who has experienced 900 yeasr.

hmm... in that case, do you mean, totally unrelated neighbours that live so close to each other seeing each other everyday, those also counted as familial bond which is a no-no romance relationship? How about adoption? lol, the infamous adopted kid fall in love with their alledged sibling grow up in the same house care by same parents story plot.
Oh and I forgot about one thing. x.x I really do think that feeling and making babies are 2 different things. Like said, there is adoption. with modern science, you can even have a check up to see whether it is okay for the couple to conceive a 'healthy' child. I once watch a documentary exploring the future of selective baby making in terms of actually literally selecting genes of the couple to produce a perfect child, as the 'perfect' interpret by each people. Normally, the 'perfect' would eliminate the hereditary health problems, then also manipulate their brain development for example. It came to a point that I am not even sure it is a good advancement, kind of sci fi freaky. I hope I am NOT the only woman prefer adoption more than having own baby. x.x
By the way, if living together, is that common law marriage? I think I misunderstood earlier about what that term meant.

@ anna;; It would explain it. And when they finally watch in real cartoons, it'll be normal to them.
That's how they learn to count, be friends, treat others how you want to be treated - it doesn't defeat any purpose. ^^;
To each their own
No one can control the media anyway - it's supposed to control us \ o /
But they did bring up PB's and M's relationship earlier on before. They actually did make it sort of a important point in the mini movie they made recently, where Marceline is tired of being a vampire and wants to be human again. They revisit a old hangouts and talk about their former relationship with each other. Idk if you missed it? I forget what it was called xD It debuted on CartoonNetwork not too long ago.
Family ties or not - family is family, whether or not you are separated from the main family. I don't believe in it, so, yeah.
I'm keeping my views conservative since you do accept it at a level and it's a no where thing. xD;
aha. Nope!
It's like the "misadventures" of bugs bunny, really.
well, divorce has a heavier burden and feelings rather than breaking up. Most people don't live together when they're in a relationship, so, most don't suffer any higher cost like divorce can. Especially if assets/children are involved.
I googled for nerdy answers for Rini:
Quote:
My cousin's a huge fan of Sailor Moon... and she decided to answer this question for me... for some reason...? Anyway, here's her answer:
Rini is actually 9 years old, since in the manga her father said she was 900 years old in the future. And yes, Hotaru's 13.
|
From wiki:
Quote:

Chibiusa has pink hair and red eyes. Like Usagi, she wears her hair in odango, though instead of the buns being round, they are stylied to look like a rabbit's ears. She is older than she looks in the manga. She is 900 years old, as was told by her father King Endymion. She is the youngest (with the exception of Hotaru) and shortest Sailor Senshi. In the beginning of the series, she stood at the height at about 3'6", and continued to grow taller through the following arcs.
|
lmao Well, age doesn't define you, that's why there's a lot of immature adults/old people. You are who you are. Even Serena is immature, her attitude and the way she is doesn't mature throughout the whole series. She may become less whiny but she still never acts her age.
@ xu;; I guess this is what sailor cosmos is?
http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/...20140125035911
I never heard of her xDD
Quote:
In the manga continuity, the girls knew that Chibi Chibi could not be Usagi's second daughter, but still wondered who she could be. As it turned out, she was the disguised form of Sailor Cosmos, who was there to guide Sailor Moon to make the decision to destroy Chaos.
------- (fan answers) -------
Chibi Chibi is really Sailor Cosmos, but in disguise. She is the future/final/ultimate form of Sailor Moon. She comes from a distant future where the people that she loved are dead. She fled the battle that she had against the monster that was Chaos because she wasn't strong enough. She came to the present to convince her past self to confront Galaxia and Chaos and to guide her. She took of Chibi Chibi is because she wanted to get close to her, but in the anime however, it is a different story.
|
^ that's the definition but... Serena accepted that she was her daughter. Idk, it gets very complicated in the Stars ARC.

Yeah. Sometimes trusting someone you love is a difficult thing to do as well.
But that usually only is obvious when something suddenly changes in their demeanor.
