What do you think projecting is? When they come out with comments like this is made for pedo's then by making such a statement you are implying people who want to buy it are pedo's. That is projecting your opinion/feelings onto other people based on your own perception of that products or person.

Actually, it's probably just an observation that her face makes her look like she is about six years old, and when that is paired with a highly exaggerated body in a very sexualized pose, it looks kind of like a person with the face of a six year old child is being sexualized. Which she sort of is, since she has the face of a six year old child, and she is in a very sexualized pose.

This is just making you sound like you're trying too hard.


This reminds me of this crap that's been going around lately:
Image IPB

All women must be put in impractically boob-emphasizing sexy poses at all times, no matter how completely nonsensical it is.

Carve out the cheeks a bit, strengthen the cheekbones, jaw, and chin and the face will look better.

I think someone like TK Miller would have been better off doing the figure since he can make women look both sexy and powerful.

I concur. A TK Miller would have been nice.

Why do you judge a completely different ideology with your standards? I don't always agree with the depiction of women in the Japanese culture but I am tolerant enough to understand that their culture has different ideals that the Western/American culture. How is this worse than those children beauty peagants they have in America? At least the Japanese keep their tendencies mostly  fictional.


Agreed. There was news story only few days ago about some 4 y/o (American) girl and mother entered beauty pageant and gave 4 y/o breast and butt enlargement things for it, the article was on Kotaku only day or two ago. The majority of all breast related surgery again ~ America. I am not 100% sure on this but I bet most of the porn in world also American.

Everyone has a culture, does that mean we can't judge anyone?

As me being a man, I find it kinda insulting for games/movies/books to imply that we would be so weak that women can almost force us to rape her b/c of her 'over-sexual' appearance, and making us look that we don't have any control of ourselves. Even if a woman isn't trying to seduce us, still implying that men have no resposibility of our actions is insulting.

Not that it really disturbes me that much, but still.

My first thoughts? The change in appearance the devs have been talking about, is Liara entering the Matron stage of her life. Biotic Storage Units FTW!!!!

And then, I thought OH MY GOD! What is wrong with her face!?

It does not mean that you cannot judge but it also does not excuse the amount of ridiculous outrage on this forum.

Please do explain to me about this country of deviants not like the wholesome West.

EDIT: Deleted video because do not fancy to get banned because of English humour

Dragoonlordz is just butthurt people are picking on his ****** material.


Pretty much.... that's sort of what distresses me about a lot (not all) anime in general though.... men getting turned on by young / little girls that have been given the bodies of full grown women in an effort to excuse / justify the creepy fact they're turned on by the thought of young girls with heaving bosoms and womanly curves... implications unpleasant. Why does it have to be a child's face? What is the appeal in the fantasy of a child having a body that is "fully developed" and capable of performing what they want in their fantasies? You know what, don't answer that. :blink:

Why can't it just be the face of a regular woman (or very young woman even)... why the obsession with mashing children's / young girls' faces onto women's bodies? It's just not healthy. And it's not just this mangled Liara figure I refer to, but a fair amount of anime in general.

Anyhow, I give up.. I can only handle so much anime nonsense in one day before feeling sick to my stomach. :sick:


I find it very disturbing how woman are little girl faced. Each time I watch an anime and see something like this, it makes me think these guys need a child to lure with fake candy but still want something soft to lay their hands on.

Yeah, I agree. And the worst part is that it isn't just in games and books, it's in real life too.

Considering the kind of look they're going for, my only criticism is that her forehead is too big. Makes her look like she has a toddler's head.

It's a Bishouju statue from Kotobukiya. Not supposed to look like ME, supposed to look like Bishouju. It's hard to understand if you're new to anime/manga but def not an automatic trip down pedo lane.
The various other properties they've optioned (like Marvel) are stylistically the same.
It's fine if you're not familiar with the line but Bioware hasn't committed any heresy.

Chill out.

Compare Japan to good ol' USA. Clearly Japan are the ones with the problem [sarcasm] given they are not even per capita as bad as USA on rapes and pedophiles, how about look in mirror before go insinuating Japan is one with problem.

Hentai-based anime is the entire culture of Japan? Because that's all we're insulting here.

You got cartoons that have something like this mixed in (created as a joke)  and call it normal over there? I wouldn't.

Don't like it you don't have to buy it at all. its not like its going to be the actual look of Liara in the game. I like me some Anime and love anime like Samurai Champloo, Ghost in the Shell, Gundam, Cowboy bebop but I realize some of the looks of these girls can be too young. In certain anime they have women who have the bodies of porn stars but the face of a child.

Eh we can't judge them too much. The West sometimes eats that **** up.
