When you are playing Idolmaster, you ARE staring at underaged girls for 99% of its gametime. I sense a bit of delusion from the people who are defending this game - it is what it is. If the girls weren't underaged, the game wouldn't have sold as well. People who buy this game want to stare at underaged girls all day.

^This was good until the last two lines. Not all of the girls are underaged, and personally, I don't even see that as the "creepiness"; it's the fact that the game gives you a handful of pretty girls/women to train.
How can you possibly deny that this game has absolutely no moe/cuteness undertones in it? Considering that moe is often linked to objectification. I don't mind it when in fiction, but I won't stand up and scream that moe should be accepted by everyone and isn't an issue.
Man wtf, I'm leaving this thread. It's getting too hot and flamey.
