@Story Yeah... Have you not noticed all of the anime targeted at older audiences? They have a whole genre for it.

According to our Animation Age Ghetto article, the general public in the US thinks cartoons are for little kids, while the general public in Japan thinks cartoons are for little kids or socially awkward (possibly dangerous) adults.

The people actually working in animation, in both countries, know better—but they're not a very big part of the general public.

Yeah, but there are a LOT of "socially awkward adults." Anime is a fairly large industry after all.

[up][up][up]That's technically only a manga thing. Even though I know some Senien Series do get adapted to anime.

Of course then again, a 50 year old is young in Japan.

IT depends on the content, too. Any show with talking animals is pretty much instantly designated as toddler fare, from what I understand.

"Oh, that's just goddamn wonderful, they hired a bunch of moeblob actresses who can't fucking act, just to lasso in all the creepy otaku. This casting represents everything wrong with Japanese animation today. Fuck this show."

That...actually sounds exactly like Japan, yeah.

Japan's no stranger to substanceless 'cute girls doing cute things' shows, and while that's not necessarily a bad thing, I don't know as that'd be my first choice for Fi M.

Actually, it reminds me of previous generations.

Anyway, I have no experience living in Japan, I'm just going by what I've heard online.

"If you could go to Equestria, or have World Peace. Which pony would you visit first?"

I can't bring myself to care about the Japanese V As, honestly. I'm pretty cool with the ones we've got already, so...

If you could go to Equestria, or have World Peace

As a mathematician, I say both.

Sequel to a Mass Effect crossover fic, eh?

Insert joke about Mass Effect 3's ending.
Fanfiction I hate.

Did they ever get around to releasing the DLC that would supposedly fix the ending?

They did, but the alternate ending is "Everyone dies and the reapers win"

Not quite. The alternate ending is "Everyone dies and the Reapers win, but the good guys win next cycle."

Also, they added to each of the three original ending to spell out exactly what happens in each of them, so they are no longer nearly identical. Perfectly fixed, IMO.

Other than the Unfortunate Implications present in the green ending.

Didn't everyone die in all the original endings too? Unless you beleive No Endor Holocaust.

Didn't the DLC add some other stuff after the choosing your explosion color thing that elaborated more on what actually happened?

EDIT: I didn't read!

Yeah, there was some serious Fridge Logic in the original ending that the DLC addressed and made clear wouldn't happen. Provided you have a high enough completion %
