Re: Anime Sharing - Netorare Thread
Heya!
How's it going, guys? Still swamped with work on my end, but I try to lurk when I can and saw some stuff I had to chime in on. xD
Nice catch with the Takenoko story あなたの選択 第1-2章. It seems despite the attempts of some vanillafags it never got tagged NTR, so I completely missed it. It's hard to say what I would have thought had I went into it unsuspecting, but up until the chapter break, there didn't seem to be that much NTR indication unless you were reading more into it than was actually being said. There's plenty of normal stories that revolve around the innocent junior turning out to be pretty wild/slutty too. Also not sure you can call it trolling since both chapters came out at the same time and there was a vote(Unless the vote was rigged and that's getting far too meta for my tastes). More just disappointing. Still, I have to say that I'm rather proud of the profag, so in the end I actually enjoyed the story as being different, though I'd have been more than fine had things gone the other way.
The profag did what I tend to continuously harp on, and that's be responsible for his own actions and act decisively. It was all set up for him to turn into what I feel is the most uninteresting of NTR profags: the dude with the fetish who takes things to far and gets burned. Instead, he said, 'Wait a minute, I don't think this is what I really want,' and then instead of going, 'Uh, but I'm a weak-willed pussy and we're already here, I guess I have to go through with this,' he acted boldy(And remembered to pay anyway which also makes him a gentlemanfag. ^^b). I got a good story out of it and the vanillafags got some sort of presumed moral victory over what they think is the dark side, made all the more ironic by the fact that the bookends of the story are talking about reality and knowing what is and isn't fantasy and the entire premise is a cute, loyal, nymphomaniac and her strong-willed, dependable, boyfriend who actually considers her feelings. /Cheshire grin
Still, I will admit to being slightly irritated by some of the comments from all the vanillafags and will look into seeing about maybe having their homes leafleted with the collected works of Sanbun Kyoden. That oughta teach the smug little asshats.
For another story that plays the profag in a pretty positive light, maybe check out Yamato Nadeshiko if you haven't already.

@DiabolicalGenius I can understand why the Takenoko piece hit you harder than it did me. I tend to enjoy NTR works more where the guy isn't already interested in NTR/swapping. I like the interplay more in what makes a relationship work and the story and sacrifices that go with it. That's why I often enjoy the games where the profag gets choices and through his choices can earn a 'happy' ending in addition to the standard NTR endings. I wouldn't be opposed to a game that let people play out both NTR and vanilla routes if both were actually done well. Spend all week working late = +3 to getting NTRed. Forget your anniversary = +5 to getting NTRed. Cheating on your wife = +20 to getting NTRed. Come home and romance your wife instead of going out drinking with co-workers = -3 to getting NTRed. Be considerate of your wife's needs in the bedroom = -5 to getting NTRed.
If your score is low enough you get the best vanilla ending(house,kids,promotion,sportteamofyourchoicewinsthebiggame), if it's a bit higher then maybe one where things aren't quite so great but they still have a strong relationship, a middle ending could be one where maybe the wife cheats, but they manage to work things out, high scores lead into things where she's cheating behind his back but they're still together, and for people who just wanna go full blown NTR you get ones where she's having someone else's kids or is just straight up the town bicycle. In my opinion we need more of that. Unlikely, but I can dream, damn it!
Gah. I was completely unimpressed by the original 橘さん家ノ男性事情 as a NTR story. Too long and too little NTR bang for my buck in a story that I had to get invested in to go anywhere and then got very little payout. You can't ever give up, but I'm not holding my breath... If we do a little critical analysis, in the previous story the girls seem to say they only did anything that one time and are intending to get abortions. If there's no follow-up, then a direct continuation story is just a big orgy back at the guy's apartments with the girls probably acting like whores. The boy watches the video is shocked/raged/feels betrayed, and this Bastard yawns and wanders off to fix himself a sammich. Of course, we can expect the art to be great, and there's always the chance that the author will take things in a different direction, but I'm going to treat it like a Team Bitters game: expect it to be crap and then anything nice that comes from it is a pleasant surprise.
I'm not ragging on anyone that enjoys it, but it just doesn't hit any NTR buttons for me. Still, it was a bit nostalgic thinking about it 'cause that came out right around the time we were moving over here from Hongfire. In light of the recent holidays, I can say I'm happy to see this thread is still going strong. I think most of the people who came over in the exodus have stuck around, and we've had plenty of new NTR-Brothers(and Sisters? ...Somewhat doubtful of that, but if you're lurking or just hiding under the anonymity of a presumed penis, welcome anyway.) join us and there's been some interesting insights and opinions shared.
Thanks for reading!
:)
my interest in NTR is coming back, I'm even starting to think Teambitters game might not be bad.
they are making a 対魔忍ユキカゼ anime. it be cool if they did it like 監獄戦艦 animation style. To bad none of the characters from ユキカゼ are makings a cameo in asagi 3
