MODERATORS
Dunno why it's even rated M. Seems high for what it is
It's rated M because of moderators poor understanding of 'gambling'
This reminds me of 2010 when lootboxes and gacha games were okay because teaching children to gamble with Dad's credit card was awesome.
15 years later and YouTube doesn't even know what gambling is anymore, lol.
Don't you dare remind me how long ago 2010 was
The Matrix is 25.5 years right now.
Jurassic Park came out 32 years ago...
You're going to hell for this 🤣🤣🤣
I hope I am! I named my dog Lucifer 😈
Reminds me of the 90's. When anime was becoming more available in the west. Titles like Ghost in the Shell, Akira and La Blue Girl. Everyone here just figured they were cartoons and cartoon were for kids. So kids got to watch it...
Now it's like they see poker, so it must be gambling. Doesn't matter it's not the case at all.
I remember politely telling the guy at my local Family Video that "Watership Down" should probably be removed from the kid's section. He scoffed at me and just gave me a "yeah.. mkay."
A few weeks later, I noticed it was gone. I commented on it to a different guy this time and he said "yeeeeah, the boss' sister brought it home for her kids. It's gone now. Like... actually gone."
Childhood trauma could have been avoided with that one. Lol
Cartoon rabbits you day? The perfect family Easter movie.
I have the same trauma. It ran on German TV in the middle of the day decades ago. Never going to forget this.
Just wait until they rent Plague Dogs
Ninja Scroll am I right or am I right
My first anime! My pops let me rent it when I was like 11 or 12.
Fuckin AWESOME.
Wife thought the same thing about anime when I met her, now it's almost all she'll watch. She's had to get used to some of the...cultural differences...that Anime includes, but she's so used to it now that it barely registers any more.
...cultural differences...
Pedophilia? Oh, sorry, I meant Neon Genesis
ETA: this is mostly a dig at the depictions of teenagers in Neon Genesis specifically, and especially the unhealthy relationships between adults and children in that show
I mean there's some questionable views about WW2 and Nazi Germany for instance.
Just look at Stroheim from JoJo's
It felt so weird going into the anime completely blind.
Okay, he's German. Uh, and he's in the army. And it's WW2.
...Are we going to address the elephant in the room?
Nope, he's just the new bro, here we're all bound by the power of muscles and cool poses.
I mean he foolishly releases the bad guys because he's arrogant, then he talks a big game and gets his ass kicked repeatedly.
I mean, I haven't seen any pedophilia, but definitely incest and other weird shit. There's a lot of shit I don't pick up on tho.
Pretty sure 12 was legal in japan at the time.
The national government in Japan is a pile geriatrics who don't want to do anything. Pretty much every prefecture(think state or provenance) raised the age of consent to 18 a long time ago.

GODDAMMIT JAPAN
I saw la blue girl when I was 18 and it traumatized me. That shit is fucked up. I thought it was anime bc my friend had a big collection and it was just there on the shelf.
What goes on in that? Not sure I should even Google it?
It’s a weird hentai, but it’s overall pretty tame.
Bible Black is more intense. Then Urutsikodoji. Then some other fucked up anime that didn’t stick into my memory. La Blue Girl is barely a step above regular hentai in fucked-up-ness.
Tentacles. Yes, in that way.
Ehhh La Blue Girl isn’t that crazy as far as hentai goes. I did love the pubic hair needle attack.
Well it is anime.
I was with you till the hentai.
Yet still youtube allows lootbox opening videos
I want to gamble on Balatro.
Wheel got you covered
Nope!
I wish I had your restraint. EVERY time!
First three times I got the wheel it triggered.
I didn't understand the memes.
Then it never happened again.
But poly is going to fix all my problems!! At least thats what the OF model told me.
I don't care what the dev says: that thing ain't 1:4.
It's 1:4 but everytime the card is played a new set of 1:4 starts, so fuck knows what the actual odds are.
Humans are bad at probability, and that's mostly why they gamble too.
Every wheel draw is supposed to be independent (it's not totally so because computer "random" is really a pseudo-random algorithm, but close enough). So every time you draw, the odds are 1:4. Previous draws don't matter.
On an infinitely large number of draws, you'd see a 1/4 success rate. This doesn't mean you can't fail a dozen times in a row (the probability of that is (3/4)^12, about 3%... It happens).
It's always 1:4 then but that doesn't mean in 4 goes you're guaranteed a win.
It's 1:4 but everytime the card is played a new set of 1:4 starts
Of course it does, or the odds wouldn't be 1 in 4...
If you flip a coin, you "start" a new set of 1 in 2 odds too -- that's what makes it always 50/50
