I'm not a picky man, I think both versions of Osako are hot.

So the bill you all brought up a few pages back isn't really something to worry about.
The name of the bill SB 20 is “Stopping AI-Generated Child Pornography Act.”
The bill was primarily introduced as a response to concerns over AI-generated CSAM (Child Sexual Abuse Material), especially imagery that could be indistinguishable from photos of real children. Legislators are trying to close loopholes where AI might be used to produce extremely realistic but synthetic illegal content. That’s where enforcement is most likely to focus, not on hand-drawn or stylized anime with ambiguous character ages.
Enforcing such laws broadly against artists—especially international ones or hobbyists—is incredibly difficult:

Enforcing such laws broadly against artists—especially international ones or hobbyists—is incredibly difficult:
- No clear standards for what qualifies as "obscene" with fictional characters.
- Jurisdiction issues: The internet is global; U.S. law enforcement can’t police artists overseas or most online platforms directly.
- Free speech protections still apply, particularly in light of Ashcroft v. Free Speech Coalition (2002), where the Supreme Court struck down a similar federal law as overly broad when it tried to criminalize fictional depictions not involving real minors.
- It's likely this bill will be used selectively to:
- Pressure platforms hosting AI generation tools to restrict certain prompts.
- Prosecute edge cases where someone deliberately uses AI to create content that could pass as real illegal material.
- In essence, it’s a deterrent and a legal mechanism to go after the worst offenders, not mainstream anime fans or creators.
No but why does preview-Ayane have the green scarf? To my understanding it was thought that the Himarwari variations that trigger with obscene affection values occur off-screen always in the event that you "miss" them. Does the presence of Maya-Prime's scarf in this preview imply the existence of 2 Green Paths, normal Green and Himarwari/True Green?

The fact that there are 3 Maya events and selebus shares a preview ayane with green scarf makes me wonder, if we will see a glimpse of what himawari is doing.

Ackcyually, playing devil's advocate, the letter of the law doesn't make a distinction between AI generated and cartoon.
The text says it doesn't have to be an AI-generated image, just qualify with the definition of obscene (by Section 43.21(a)(1)(B)). I do agree it's just gonna be used to just pressure sites that don't comply, kinda like how half of the DLsite non-AI 18+ pages are inaccessible from outside Japan, before it gets struck down like other american laws (who knows, tho, remember that the Comics Code Authority was a thing for a while there).
That said, would LiL qualify as an offense if it does happen?

Im willing to bet Ayane is going to attempt to calm Sara down, and talk about how the class all knew it and just kind of accept it.
There's gonna be a heavy "Yh but what choice do we have" thing here cause they all love him.
1. New? This entire game is predecated on rape and always has been.
2. Yup, he made that pretty clear in the early posts on this forum before his ban. Bear in mind he sexually assaults Yumi very early.
3. Agreed, she is an angel.
Honestly I'm not too sure.
He has been begging for punishment, but what if the Nodokathon 2 was a look into the future, what if he sees he is indestructible in a world where he's meant to do this and starts seeing himself as a king.
Alternatively though, in that king Akira segment he looks fucking awful. Granted this could be because of Ami's involvement, but that could also be a foreshadowing of a potential fall.
Genuinely not sure which is more likely at this point, especially considering it'd take him full circle to when he thought he was just Isekaid in to be a sex machine.
100% Ayane is talking to Makoto about what happened, her ass is breaking or at least straining Nodoka's NDA.
Might even be looking for a way to save Akira from the shitshow he's just found himself in, would sync up with the Sara visit.

LiL somehow always manages to bring to light certain dissonances people have regarding certain themes when they're presented in certain contexts on fiction.
The sorrow of his rebirth is that, no matter what, it seems like he's destined to go full circle.
On that note, I think the resets themselves are also in a loop, which begins anew when he pulls a rooftop (maybe due to guilt?), which could explain Halloween Maya Prime being a thing, and also how is it that, from his perspective, he becomes a sensei... out of nowhere.

Akira doesn't even know Sara saw anything. He was invited to an orgy and participated. Ayane's gonna try and hide it as best she can.
He's definitely due a crashout at the beach.
Same. I put her on my list because she's the only one to have outright stated a "Fucking the underage is bad" opinion. But she's also ready to marry Akira. Rika hasn't really been seduced by Akira yet, Imani kind of was but has also just had her perspective shaken in the dorm wars, and both of them have a duty of care to the students. I almost added Wakana to the list, but I think she'll be too distracted by Osako, I think something's gonna happen when Akira is found out and "OSAKO KNEW????!!"
Sara's not in the right mindset to tell anyone else, she's gonna clam up and keep everything running even though her world is exploding.
Maybe if it was Makoto she caught, she'd have to tell Maki then.
Inquisitor Imani is now active.
