Anyhow are you sure it is pedophilia or is it sexuality as shock?

Ilya isn't actually sexualized in the original, Prisma is for the people who were disappointed by that

Well that sucks!

It is like watching Familiar of Zero... except with unreciprocated Pedophilia instead of unreciprocated hilarious abuse.

Also yes I am aware there is a fine line between the two... >_>

Yeah, F/SN was actually remarkably tame as such things go, considering that everything happened between a trio of consenting individuals somewhere around 16-18 years old.

Wait, what about Saber, isn't she technically a couple days ol-*BLAM*

... isn't Saber chronologically like... twenties? Older? From her perspective, anyway. She's

I think Saber's actually cradle robbing fairly fiercely. Pretty good chance Taiga (or whoever it is that's Shirou's guardian) could hit her with a statutory rape charge, anyway.

... actually, now that I think about it, Kirei might have been able to, too. Which would be... kinda' hilarious, and probably right up his alley. I'd totally read a fanfic based off that premise.

Yeah, that's the actual situation. It was just a quip about how the age of the body one inhabits isn't necessarily an indicator of anything else, given the topic of the "really X years old" tripe we were ragging on.

The only line I see is the "hilarious" part...and that really depends on what a person considers to be funny.

Indeed, I do this.

Thought I'd give Prisma Illya a try again, maybe it got better. I'm pretty bored, so why not. Less than a minute in, 10 year old girl's panties occupy most of the screen. Wow, that escalated quickly. I'm forced to agree that this show is probably specifically marketed at pedophiles. I'm out. This is unwatchably creepy for me.
Personally once I managed to get around the pedo-pandering (and it's a rather huge stretch, I'll admit) I've found the show to be quite funny and fun to watch, especially considering that I just finished Fate/Zero a while back and am watching the new Fate/Stay Night anime (which is awesome). Only most of the way through the first season, but (ignoring all the pandering) I'm actually quite enjoying the show. It's fun to see many of the characters that I know from the normal Fate series being stuffed into a genre that they were totally not created for.

Edit: Small follow up to that, but the first episode is by far the worst in the pandering from all of the ones I've seen so far. Later epsides have had some spots that were like ehh...., but nothing to the level of the first episode so far.

That is what I mean by unreciprocated.

OHHH GAWD!!! I just remembered that the male lead in Familiar Zero actually goes through Puberty during the show and is "sexily abused". DAMN it Familiar of Zero you are the gift that I wish stopped giving.

Eh, there's plenty of potential explanations for that. The obvious one is that it just doesn't come up in the scope of the series -- Saber seems to strongly be a more "lead by example" (the example, largely, being wide scale unstoppable mass slaughter) than... posing and speeches and similar such silliness. Lacking a situation where there's major geopolitical shenanigans (and, iirc, the series actually pretty strongly insinuates that Saber was kinda' terrible at that sort of thing -- great at inspiring loyalty in a select few, less great at managing a nation), she has no need for such things anyway and it just... doesn't happen.

To boot, Saber's working with something like 3-4 other people (most of them, y'know, basically civilians) at once, at the most, and is completely lacking in what would be her normal supporting infrastructure. It's entirely possible she kicks several kinds of inspirational ass when she's got her full field command on hand, but I don't think we ever see anything along those lines.

Also: She's totally got B class charisma (And remember, something like E class charisma would have put her on par with normal maximal human capability). Which basically means that the only reason we don't see her diplomance the surrounding nations into her thrall is that Nasu she didn't want to write that story.

Though something like rejiggering the conflict into something like a modern day Game of Thrones might be interesting, if it weren't for the fact that

Point the second could be
Spoiler: I guess maybe spoiler? (click to show/hide)

Her working with shirou is pretty easy to explain. Dude's got better info, is the only thing keeping her around for very long, and is generally working towards the exact same goal she is. No real reasons to clash all that hard, and it's not like they're entirely without interpersonal conflict. Plus the two of them just happen to get along pretty well. * Frumple performs the eyebrow waggle of not-so-vague innuendo. *

... mitigating circumstances, basically. A whole heaping pile of mitigating circumstances.
