I think there's values dissonance in your perspective anon. Your values as a westerner say that pedophilia and examining the sexuality of puberty in public ways is somehow wrong, and that depictions of that sexuality should not be entertainment when exaggerated. Those of us from the east find it about the same as you do violence.

As far as my friends, family, and peers have noted, it seems like much of the western way is to hint at but otherwise block out sexuality under 18, then to market/sell to those same deprived individuals for a massive profit once they reach adulthood. It also seems to create a split in childhood, between those who experiment and feel safe and educated, and those who have no access. I don't agree with some things, like 13yo or 15yo being age of consent, but I understand where it's coming from when I see Canadian children being legally penalized because one has revolved around the sun 18 times and the other only 15 times.

Most anime doesn't have some moral at the end like an aesop, or speak of the spiritual journey, or the sexual awakening. They're fictionalized depictions of reality made entertaining by exaggerating certain aspects.
>Cross Ange was created with that purpose in mind, whereas Highschool DxD/Highschool of the Dead was created for entertainment. It's not an exact comparison, but it's an approximate equivalent to ragging on genre fiction for not being more like classical literature when there's clearly a place for both.
>Unless you're also arguing that TMNT (turtles sexually & romantically attracted to a useless/helpless/clueless human girl) or Hey Arnold (holga's tsundere romantic and sexual feelings for the titular football-head) are trash because they don't measure up to the inherent life lessons of Avatar the Last Airbender.
>We can also call out just about any anime for not measuring up to NGE or FLCL re: children's journey to adulthood, and even those pale to Ghibli's works.

Says who anon?
Not me, I don't know you.

And you don't know her, nor does she know you, I believe.

So then, who are you to tell you she's out of your league? If you want a decent girl, raise your damn self up instead of settling down in a low plateau for libtards complaining about mental disorders and medication on social media.
