I think he meant that porn-based anime generally isn't really noteworthy for unusual sexual shenanigans the way not-porn-based anime is, in the same way that danger generally isn't noteworthy in action movies the way it is in dramas. Not that it's necessarily better or worse for it, just that it's less significant a distinction or feature.

This, yes.

... there are ethical systems under which that is a sufficient justification. It would have to be some kind of freakish joy vortex that turns the person from a human being to some sort of ambulatory cocktail of happiness chemicals, though. Something along the lines of a murder-driven biochemical apotheosis. Creation process for endorphin elementals, etc. etc.

Run of the mill murderjoy wouldn't cut it -- it would have to be a happiness that somehow eclipsed every possible joy the murderee could experience, as well as all the social-based happinesses not allowing murder brings about, and a bunch of other stuff. It's conceptually possible, though!

I mean, hell, it sorta' fits with the topic's subject. Streaker J's execution/murder is generally held to be a desired action, so wozzname killing him created sufficient happiness the murder was apparently justified in the eyes of believers, if you squint at it hard enough. Folks generally seem to be okay with the god-thing eventually straight up murdering the entire human species, as well, due to the happiness it brings (for some).

It actually happens, yes. You can see some fairly significant social snobbing towards people who don't or can't give gifts, in some places.

What I learned today: Anime girls, much like snakes, can unhinge their jaws to swallow large prey whole.

Hnnoo, the point I was making is that something that starts off as porn is probably going to have a lower threshold of likelihood when it comes to incest. Regardless of it becoming a real boy anime later on, the initial conceit would seem to me to lessen the impact. Like, I probably wouldn't call FS/N as something important to note for having a threesome, because, y'know, it's not that surprising since it started out as porn. It's still a real anime or whatev', it's just... lower standards when it comes to culturally abnormal sexuality. Or something.

... pretty sure stuff based off eroges don't count.

Mind you, there's still plenty without that. There's lists on the internet, somewhere or another.

No, it's just not a necessary truth. Some homosexuals are gay, but not all. There is sadness even in sapphos.
