My favourite comment so far:"This is just insulting. We are becoming the next Australia. It's a pixel. Personally I find all the sexual stuff in jrpgs absolutely hilarious and charming, its not to be taken seriously at all. Yes they are like 15 in the game, but Japan can handle things like that a lot more mature than Americans, who are being turned into a sensitive culture by the American media."

There's a whole lotta nonces on there going 'it's not noncery because the age of consent is 14 in Japan'.(

Yeah, the Japanese can handle a lot of things that we can't.... an art style that uses proportions specifically and deliberately designed to make the vast majority of its female characters appear as though they are underage (despite the fiction identifying them as being at least old enough to drive). Reactions ran the gamut from outright disgust to comedic derision, with most fans agreeing that the transformation of a children's toyline into borderline pedophilia was a "bad thing". There were a number of people who claimed, amazingly, that there was absolutely nothing wrong with such a thing, and that everyone else simply wasn't understanding it was a "cultural thing".
