Oh boy those conspiracy theorists in Japan must be throwing a fit over this new book. Titled ‘Legend Of The Original Antarctic Model: From Dutch Wife to Love Doll, a Post-War History of Sex Dolls‘ it tells the story of the original development of Japanese sex dolls.
According to the author these objects of otaku lust were originally developed to control the desires of work teams dispatched to isolated districts of Japan. What’s even creepier is that the government ‘encouraged‘ the development. And as we all know that can only mean one thing, money.
So there you have it, Japanese sex dolls are a government tool to control the desires of the frustrated, downtrodden masses.In Japan, Oni-chan is watching you.







I assume you mean “onii-chan”, which would make more sense in the “big brother” context. Doesn’t “oni-chan” refer to the devil (well, oni), with some sort of weird context that the -chan honorific conveys? =\
Yes and no. I think it was meant as big brother, but having the devil watching you do things makes me think oni should be photoshopped watching you “X” from the ceilling :)
This sounds like the backstory of a JRPG. Anyone want to join my ragtag group of pointy-haired, anorexic, androgynous adolescents to bring down the Japanese government?
cyberschythe: yes, my fault. Then again, it makes sense how Sol explains it :P
Also count me in Quiche!
Hmm they could also be used to keep the population down since real people aren’t having sex. But that would be Post WWII Japan all over again.
