Zerg Rush is a good name for a cover band.

I'm pretty sure masturbation should already have the AHA seal of approval. And they say swimming is the only sport you can practice lying down!

"Oka-san"

Well, at least make an effort to mimic the pronunciation.

Nice ending though.

Perfect to cheer myself up after a History exam. If only there was more tentacle porn in that, I'm sure Chamberlain and Hitler have a little bit coming to them...
Mental image not needed....

OH GOD...THE HORROR..

I think jeremy petter does a great job of looking like a real news reporter, could you imagine someone from CNN doing that interview? If they weren't cut off then I imagine that it would look the same as the ENN interview.

It's probably been said like 27 times but that A-Ha joke was fucking brilliant! The song's been stuck in my head for a few minutes now, and I think it'd be pretty interesting to have seen LRR take on the Comic book world A-Ha style.

Really good this week. That localiser was a source of a lot of laughs, "Its at least half the job".

Like the changes made, the way it is presented.

Perhaps it'll work out as something like those morning talk shows or something, if they're going that route anyways. Onion does this well. :)

Nice episode, and I will lose twice as hard in SC as well. XD

Yup. Almost makes me want to go embarrass myself in the Beta again...almost. Not quite.

Heh, sad how many of these commenters don't seem to realize that the Escapist News Network should be taken about as seriously as The Onion.

About the only bit of sex you'll find in Pokemon in Japan that you won't in the U.S. is Dawn's panties (her tiny miniskirt conceals not at all in a variety of situations) and the beach episode (apparently James crossdressing for his disguise (including flaunting his fake breasts) was considered too disturbing).

That's probably more than you'll find in Digimon (censored bits are about this innocent [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h04aECxONPc], and a bath scene which was also pretty kid friendly [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsadGRYZD50]) or Sonic (where sex might be employed as a sight gag [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGWBa6t9msY] or one-liner [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7Zf1-2Ov1o], at most).

I'd be slightly surprised if Mario Party localization involved changes to anything other than translation - maybe if they had some sadistic mini-games like from a Japanese gameshow.

While nudity isn't quite as taboo in Japan, it's a common misconception that they're looser about sex. Actually, they're even more uptight about it than we are in the states, and much of what you see in their media has to do with relieving that greater level of societal repressed emotion.

"Korean gambling syndicates, if you want someone to loose a game of Star Craft,I will do it for half the price & loose twice as hard. As a bonus, I'll really look like I'm trying har too, because....I will be."

"Sometimes there's just not a translation for things like Sempai & Tentacle Sex."

Lol, win. XD
