West,
I recall my friend sending my a link in an email about something about that bear. It's a game where anime girls die in rather uncreative, silly ways.
I dunno, I think a lot of the punishments were rather ironic and well thought out - but I guess you'd need to actually watch the series to understand. That being said, if you think anything unrealistic is uncreative, this definately isn't the series for you.
One thing to note is that we are all Westerners. We have a different set of values from Japanese people, especially in regards to honorable death and the acceptability of Suicide.
If I were to use Gundam Iron Blooded Orphans as an example, the death of the protagonist was seen as heroic/justified in Japan (because he had nothing left to live for, and the enemy probably weren't going to let him live anyway, so he "lived until he died" on the battlefield) - whereas Westerners generally saw his death as needless brutality and couldn't understand why he had to die in such a scummy way (presumably they wanted him to live so he could take responsibility for his as-of-then unborn child, and because he was still a child himself).
I'm not sure a Japanese themed thread would work on these forums, mainly because we don't really understand their ideals. Perhaps it would be better to write something closer to home.
