>>280485911Pretty much this, a couple of expired old puritans with lots of money see panties or boobs and cry and piss their pants, so basically animators are just going down the line of showing whats attractive to people in order before production committees start asking for it to be cut because SURELY the target audience for shounen is a bunch of faggots with zero sexual drive like their dumbass 80 year old self who can't get it up any more. It's embarrassing, as if they didn't watch what happened when western media tried to be safe for everyone, causing them to all flock to anime.
The one saving grace is that anime is relatively cheap to make, and the animators themselves tend to want to be able to make anime that isn't so restricted, so you still have a bunch of studios willing to bite bullets here and there.
It can't go on forever, either they will completely fold and everyone will abandon them or they will come to their senses and realize that maybe shoujo rape anime and shounen harem anime can just be made exclusively for the target audience instead of making both of them for nobody at all.
