In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Kill la Kill wouldn't be itself without the skimpy costumes. The whole story is woven around clothes-as-metaphor.

Yep I am sure it is going to find its way into clips of "Skimpy anime outfits" completely unironically.

Yes I am leaving info out. This is the Happy Anime thread, the angry anime thread is in the forbidden boards.

Sure, and there's people get off on compilations of anime girls covered head-to-toe in armor as well :P. I think it's worth noting that on several other places on the internet I've found comments of people who actually find KLK stuff in things like that a turn-off, rather than a turn-on, simply because of the way it gets portrayed in the show. And no offense, but it seems like the percentage of the people who find KLK titillating is actually much lower in those who actually watched the whole show and are participating in discussion online about it than in those who only watched the first few episodes.

(Also I found something that was kinda funny while looking into this, in many of these discussions it seems to be the males that are the ones describing KLK as nothing but fanservice, while it's mainly the females that are claiming that the show has is definitely not just fanservice. :P)

Here is the thing most people who don't watch anime don't know...

People don't really care about the fanservice.

At least most people don't... I'd in fact think the vast majority. In fact I think I'll make a poll.

So yeah, have watched a bit more of Legend of Galactic Heroes.

It's hitting all of my 4X and RTS/Total War buttons at once ohhohohohohoho

amusingly it seems more like a turn based strategy. But that is due to the rule of drama, I suppose.

Although it's pretty damn accurate on tactics and strategy for an anime.

JoJo had the best cliffhanger this week.

Also Death Parade's ending was pretty good, I think the series is worth watching.

I have watched a tiny bit of Kill la Kill, but the fanservice is kinda too blatant and obnoxious, so I stopped.

SOLDIER THROUGH IT YOU BASTARD. Its worth it.

They've been censoring it out all through the show. It's of course removed from the Blu-rays but the reason behind it is because he's a minor

Yeah there are strict rules against depicting underage drinking and smoking on TV.  No, really.
