Would have been the more appropriate title.
Amagami SS 06: Too Much For Me To Stomach

I forgot one important ritual before watching this episode; Blow my load to reduce the amount of strain my nutbladder would have to endure. The consequence? My penis engine mechanic informed me that the damage is irreversible and that I may never be able to fap again for the next seven days 
Honestly though, despite having the CG set in hand, nothing could have ever prepared me for this scene. Yes, my body was once again, not ready, and I do not think it ever will be for the remainder of Sexhair's arc.
Content Aware versus Anime
Posted by Shin
Folks, if you have been a long time reader of this site, you would know by now that Photoshopping makes up the bulk of my blogging bread and butter. And I don't mean to boast, but I consider myself to be peerless in the art of shoopping within the Japanese cartoon blogging community 
Despite my technical prowess, there has been one thing that always eluded me, and that is none other than censorship.
Prevalence of censorship in anime these days are more often than not, driven by economic factors, but that is not why I am making this post. No, my job here today is to experiment with Adobe's Content-Aware function which was implemented in the latest iteration of Photoshop, touted to forever revolutionise image-editing*.
Imagine the televised broadcast of your favourite show being ruined by greedy animation studios, and you are too impatient to wait for the DVD/Blu Ray versions to be released, or even a couple of days for ATX's uncensored broadcast. Bearing in mind what Content-Aware is supposedly capable of, I will first have that particular scene have its censor edited out (oh, the irony), and then have Content-Aware run its magic and predict what that missing element might be.
To accomplish that task, I have handpicked screenshots from various anime that feature an assortment of censorship methods that you would come to expect. As implied in the title, I will also try to make things interesting by keeping a tally of the success and failure of Content-Aware in doing its job.
So About Working!…

Inami is in love with Takanashi who is in love with Poplar who likes the blonde chef de partie Satou who is unreluctant homosexual lovers with blue haired sous-chef Souma because of the former's unrequited love for katana chick Yachiyo who is lesbian for lazy manager Kyoko who lust for Otoo's penis, who is looking for his wife who eloped with Inami's father, who actually fathered all of Takanashi's siblings, the youngest of which has brain cancer. Takanashi also has an evil twin brother who is trying to kill him in order to secure the inheritance that will be left behind when Takanashi's real father is murdered by Yachiyo when he tried to hit on Kyoko.
And to think I found the TYPE MOON relationship chart confusing and convoluted! With such a complex entanglement of relationships within even a show like Working!, I can almost overlook the introductionary phase of the first few episodes since the cast is clearly not brought in ad hoc, disengaging viewers with characters whom they have no concern with other than Poplar. Yeah, definitely not displeased with the lack of Poplar, not at all.

The K-ON! Franchise Progression
Posted by Shin
In what could've turned out be one of the biggest blunders in anime business history, Kyoto Animation originally wanted K-ON! to be a serious slice of life anime , Naoko Yamada has revealed.
Speaking in an interview with Newtype, Kyoto Animation director Naoko Yamada revealed that the the team has wanted to create ℳℴℯ❤shit anime - without relying on plot, characterization, good animation and the like - for years, but senior management held them back.
"With Clannad, we were dead set against it being yet another good, deep anime," Yamada told Newtype, "but the board of executives really wanted it, the compromise sort of being that we'd get some funding in exchange for doing good, meaningful anime.
"We always wanted to do ℳℴℯ❤shit anime and the board of executives saw us as more of a good, deep animation studio," he said.
"And something I'll add to that, Kyoto Animation also did not want K-ON!. They thought working on a ℳℴℯ❤shit anime was risky and [thought], 'oh my god you can't do that, it's crazy!' They were doing market research to show us we were wrong the whole time," he said.
"We had to fight for everything," chimed in K-ON! project lead, Yukiko Horiguchi. "They wanted it to be drama. Again."
Of course the Kyoto Animation's risk in letting the K-ON! team go against the surveys paid off massively, and K-ON! ended up shifting over 41,000 copies.
"It just blows us away(knowing how retarded the otakus are). I'm still reeling from it," Yamada said of the success.

As So Ra No Wo To looms over the horizon, I personally cannot wait to see what other Kyoto Animation influences are going to trickle down onto A1's next production. Just as how Kannagi had a Haruhi-esque OP sequence, So Ra No Wo To has identical character designs to K-ON!, which is no surprise why this show has been dubbed the latter's sequel(prequel?) and Valkyria K-ONicles, among other dubious titles made to link the two shows together.
