The only thing I really have to add is that Nintendo's PR department must be in a red hot furious rage, and will call down a lightning smash as soon as they figure out how.
Call me crazy, but the only problem I have with all of this is the adoption of Pokemon into their group moniker as a way to show coolness. I realize I'm probably going to lambasted by several of my fellow otaku, but while Pokemon maybe enjoyable at times, cool is not exactly a word I would associate with that particular show.
Otherwise, let the kids fuck around. It happens all over the world. At least they're being upfront about it.
Oh dear. I am NOT mentioning this to my kids. I don't want to give them any more ideas than they've come up with already!
The first thing that disturbs me is the the name. I thought Pokemon was out years ago, plus Pokemon's primary targets are pre-pubescent children, ja? So why would teens associate that name with cool? Unless the teens are really young, barely into puberty themselves? *Shudder*
The second thing is that the kids are giving off the impression that they are extremely callous, short-sighted, and stupid. STDs can be passed through oral, including female-to-female activity. Do they even realize this? Do they care? And why the hell does it have to be out in the open for spectators?
