Abbreviation of "Total Media Agency," (
http://www.tma.co.jp/) an AV maker who specializes in making live action pornography.
They are also known for creating high-quality (laughs) AVs based on highly popular anime. Most of these titles are altered subtlely, which causes the buyer to buy it as a gag item.
Example:
A: Hey look! There's a AV for Haruhi!
B: Wait a minute...look at the title more closely...it says Ha
hiru!
A: WTF?!! OMG! I gotta buy it! Shit, funny wwwww
B: Me too! This'll be a great gag! wwwwww
So far, TMA has released three titles that are known to otakus as a gag line-up:
"Maria-sama ga Mite
iru" (as opposed to "Maria-sama ga Miteru")
"Fa
ith / Stay
Knight" (as opposed to "Fate / Stay Night")
"Suzumiya Ha
hiru no Yuutsu" (as opposed to "Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu")
Hence, you can say that a title that is very popular is big enough to become "TMA'd" wwww
Interestingly, the AV is made closely to the original which makes it very funny. It's like watching a badly-written skit, with ugly looking guys pretending to be teenagers. Like I said, otakus are suckers - they'll spend cash on a whim. Besides, Hahiru's DVD sold out in Akiba, and the AV actress Kousaka Yuri even held an autograph session there! www
