What cliffhanger, the promo posters and next ep. preview pretty much summed up what will happen I wish they started from episode 4 and cover the first 3 in a 30 second flashback
Anyway, Babu making it back, and Wanko-service were the best parts of the episode... the whole Rea story stinks of overblown drama for hysteria over victimless crimes Also did DEEN outsource the animation to SHAFT or SilverLink Scratch that... I guess the reason is Sakai Kyuuta chief animation director and character designer for this, steins;gate, higurashi, ichigo mashimaro, and a hentai or the two art directors who have worked with SHAFT before Last edited by Malkuth; 2012-04-16 at 07:49. |

And in any case, it's not like IRL the cops, reporters or the masses touch perverts like her father, they tend to funnel their rage into other groups that are easier to target Anway, what I hope we will get into after all the melo-drama... Spoiler for NSFW:

Aria doesn't care and the maids don't talk because they don't want to lose their job.

As you said Sankarea is supposed to be about zombies and it probably will be, but what the anime is presenting so far is much more broader than that. I know it isn't about child abuse and sexualization but those two things are inserted into Rea character development and saying its not an integral part of the series would mean Rea isn't important.

But at the same time, the show's marketing can easily exploit the more hormone driven male response. The question is how this interferes with the actual show. I'm thinking most people can separate the response to story and the extra-story fanservice content. I personally think the in-story fanservicy elements are actually respectfully done, and serve character. (I'm very easy to put off even by panty shots, but I'm not feeling put off here, at all.) And I think that's what's happening with the hypocritical-seeming response. It's the industry-driven sexualisation while scanning magazines etc. vs. the in-story response while watching the show. I think that both can co-exist, without actually being hypocritical, because the fictional status of the character is much more prominent in the first instance. We wouldn't be hearing nude-shot requests if this were a news story (well, there are always certain kind of people, but that's not what I'm talking about). |

Just an aside, I'm really liking Ranko. Great personality, beautiful and with perfect curves. My kind of woman.

Second episode........
Some of the new scenes involving Rea's past are anime original, but damn if they didn't make a certain somebody more vile than they already were. While waiting for episode 3 to get to the actual premise is kinda odd, it's not like this episode wasn't good, and in fact makes presents Rea's situation much better than in the manga imho.

Rea's father isn't sexually abusing her, but he is abusing her in the sense of holding her up on an unrealistic pedestal. He's a parent who loves his child so much that it is incomprehensible for her to be a failure, and this is reflected in himself as well. He's rich, famous, in shape, married to a beautiful woman, etc. He wants all of that and more for her, and in a sense supplants the life she wants to have with the life he thinks is best for her. That's why she feels so stifled to begin with, resorting to screaming into a well at night to vent her feelings. Who would believe a girl like her could have problems? Many of us have a hard time sympathizing with someone of her social status because that status blinds us to the person living it. Rich people are notorious for being unhappy.

From her perspective he is removing all of her choices, all of her freedom. That makes him cruel from our perspective, but from his perspective he thinks he's doing the right thing. It is warped and cruel from our perspective, which engenders audience sympathy for Rea and anger at him.
