Japanese Porn Game Lampoons Rape Game Controversy
It was only a matter of time before characters in Japanese eroge started making fun of the firestorm over RapeLay in the games themselves.
It feels like I've recapped the rage surrounding Illusion Games' RapeLay so many multiplication by now that you could gag a moose with my heavy recap skills, but here goes again, in double-time: An Amazon.com itemization for RapeLay caused outrage back in February, leading to a boycott known as by a New York Councilor (despite it not being actually released all over here). Rape games were banned in Japan, then they weren't, then they were again, then some eroge makers stopped letting Western viewers sight their web sites, while others got around the regulations away equitable non calling them "rape games" anymore. Phew, you still with me? Good!
Given the side effect and the arguing, information technology was sole a issue of time before the game makers started poking sport at the whole kerfuffle in their games. The favorable schoolbook appears at the beginning of Shinobiryuu, an eroge released in Japan finally Friday (as translated by Canned Dog):
Declaration
This is a resolve made with the consensus of all the characters that appear in this story.
All the characters coming into court in this game have gone through special training and all actions carried out are done on the basis of mutual agreement.
Even if you're a inhuman person who believes that fictional characters in creative works fare not have human rights, please do not ignore this.
We besides thank all the kind people who see a character in the story saying phrases such as "help me" and take it as a real call for help.
However, even though you are worrying for the characters in the story, these are all lines spoken from a handwriting.
They are not saying all this from the bottom of their hearts. We are sorry that they have put in soh very much deed into their acting that some people will obscure IT as something that is really occurrent.
This game is a made-up storey.
If that pocketable tongue-in-boldness disavowal wasn't enough, the unfit too lampooned the hubbub in a conversation between two characters:
Surprised Suigen Ninja:
I've recently learnt something that jiggered MEListening Suigen Ninja:
What is it?Surprised Suigen Ninja:
We, fancied characters, plain have human rights.Listening Suigen Ninja:
Huh?Surprised Suigen Ninja:
There are apparently some special people that bequeath get furious and show sympathy for us if we get raped. And they'll get lobbying for us too.Listening Suigen Ninja:
Wow, we even can't do anything ourselves without a creator or a player but we have hominine rightsSurprised Suigen Ninja:
Surprising isn't it?Listening Suigen Ninja:
Yeah. But since they acknowledge that we have fallible rights, I wonder if they'll acknowledge that we have the letter-perfect to vote too. Our creators volition work hard to do some political manipulation.Surprised Suigen Ninja:
We can't be greedy. Only well, since we have human rights we might American Samoa considerably suggest it.Listening Suigen Ninja:
You'atomic number 75 rightThunderstruck Suigen Ninja:
We're doing as we delight. Please stop taking unneccessary actions.
Doh you hear that? That's the sound of a sonsy ninja girl in very tight fabric saying that people should "layover taking gratuitous actions," and obviously in no way reflects the feelings of the people making the game. Nope, not at altogether.
RapeLay is relieve the invest that keeps on giving to game journalists, almost a class later. God bless its reprobate little soul.
