There'll be a new anime airing on Japanese TV shortly, titled Qwaser of Stigmata, based on a manga (and yes, it's possible it should be "quasar" instead of "qwaser," but this isn't the important bit). In it, the Qwasers -- part of an Eastern Orthodox school called Saint Mihailov Academy -- a group of powerful people called adepts. It would be your standard dark fantasy series, except that the Qwasers gain their powers through... er, breast milk. Which means they have to nurse. A lot.
...yeah. Now understand that this is an utterly serious fantasy tale, and one that will be airing on TV at that, so it's not just pervert material, although it should go without saying that the mystical ladies who nurse the heroes gain seemingly sexual pleasure from the Quasars' suckling. I would find this horrendously disturbing if it were just some hentai series, but the fact that it's intended for mass audiences makes me want to drink scotch in bed until I black out.
Although when I first saw AnimeVice's headline of "Breast-feeding Manga Gets Anime," I was fairly certain that it was going to be a sports-type series about a girl determined to become the best breast-feeder in Japan. If anyone made it, I'm sure it'll run for at least 42 volumes.

What the fuck is wrong with japan...honestly?
-
Просто отлично! Все очень толково и грамотно, и в то же время без умствований и самолюбования, и на доступном языке. Редкий случай когда человек делится актуальной и востребованной инфой. Спасибо автору!
-
I thought girls had to be somewhat pregnant or have given birth to produce breast milk XD other than that it seems intresting the art looks nice
-
All I have to do is think of the book Breaking Dawn, and I somehow fell this is more sane than that.

People whom have never been to japan first shut up! Sex is not a horrible thing and is not "hidden" in their culture. In fact many children are very grown up on the issue. They do not have the same culture, upbringing and closed mided ways as we have embraced over the years. We have our own problems and you are worried about sex in anime? Read about how Puritains lived. They were not the nicest people in history. They were radical about their religeon not repressed move away from school history B.S.! Yet we as Americans our fundamentals come from these people! Before you judge it learn about it, experience it. If it not for you MOVE ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No one forces you to read watch or learn.. Which is why we have converses like this. Mollestations are looked down upon in Japan but no one does anything because no one wants to get involved. Hmm kinda like New York in the 80s. Got shot by someone whit a gun? Buy your news paper, step over the body. Dont call the police because you are late for work! While thinking to your self getting shot is his problem not mine! Japan may not be the greatest country in the world in the same manner if we are not too careful we could end up second best. Love your country not your "Puritain" self! very very texbook....it's sad really. I hate self-righteous people.
-
@genryu maybe true, but the difference is per capita. That, and the japanese social structure is extremly different than that of the USA. What gets reported as a sex crime in the US might get swept under the rug in japan. mollested on the train? cops are everywhere here. but in japan? just another day on the way to school.
-
This... should be interesting.
-
I really wish I could say I'm surprised, I really do. Putting all that aside, this anime will probably be interesting if nothing else.
-
Awesome.
-
cry moar, kids have likely seen nursing at 5 and at least take an interest in experimentation at around 9-13, the only thing you should be drinking scotch over is how ridiculously retarded our way of educating youth is on matters like this.
-
hime and otome got their anime series, why shouldn't qwaser? those of you who posted, do you even know anything about this series?
-
o.O ??? (!)
-
Wow. I see a few people with some hatred issues. And a few people spouting what seems to be significant sexual repression (mainly those assuming that Japan [oddly as a whole] is sexually repressed). What gets me is the fact that people think all this stuff is strange. It's just another of those instances were in a person is more critical of an outsider than themselves (basic human nature). Everyone is a pervert. This is even more true if you think you are 'normal'. I envy Japan's ability to express their perversions so openly. As for the series... could be good, could be bad. I'll have to see it to know.
-
hmm...this will probably go the Fate Stay Night Anime route...implied scenes of suckling sense this seems to be a primary action manga.
-
Jebus, I thought it was a very serious shounen/seinen manga, judging from the cover. The Hero looks badass, however after seeing the description, I was like WTF
-
I dont see the fucking problem with the anime... Whats the big deal?
-
Queens Blade
-
See, this is the results of what happens when you get the snot bombed outta you by nukes. Your descendants get all kinds of crazy.
-
sound like fun, lets wait & see
-
What are all you "holier than thou" folks foaming at the mouth about, calling *ALL JAPANESE* sexually twisted, frustrated etc.? This would be like calling all Americans being crazed handgun fetishists, ready to shoot their neighbors at the drop of a hat...hm As for misusing (Catholic) Christian symbols - last time I checked it, Dan Brown's moronic, but bestselling patchwork of all-you-can-eat conspiracy crap is full of it - heck, even artificial insemation of a nun by a pope's sperm, somehow "cicumventing" their chastity vow - IALMAO. The movies are rated PG 13, btw...
-
I want to watch this just so that I can claim I DID. Great water cooler chat, IMO. Less creepy than the "Jon & Kate + 8 clown-car vagina" shtick that's so prevalent nowadays.
-
I've already read the manga, and it's pretty good if you look past the breast feeding, and besides it's really not that big a deal, now if it were LIVE ACTION, I'd be slightly more worried, but it's not and besides if 12 year old kids watch porn illegally, Japan can sure as hell make this and make money off of it. You say Japan is sliding further into depravity? Have you seen the state in which the US is in? Not just on sex but intellectually, morally, physically, EVERYTHING is wrong with it.
-
Just for fun : did you knew that there is waaaaaayyy less sex crimes in Japan, than, say, the good ol' US of A ? Just saying...
-
I don't see what the big deal is. Fate/Stay Night was a visual novel that contained hentai scenes for the restoration of mana. The anime simply left that plot point out. That's what this series will end up doing, changing the breast milk plot point slightly.
-
This'll be the best thing since Apocalypse Zero *moans*.
-
Wow. Just as impressive as a censored version of Bible Black. Just wow. Ya know, this'll be as good as Battle Arena Toshinden! Maybe even better! But seriously, I'll watch the first episode jus' for the hell of it.
-
Fuck yes, just the idea has made my penis so hard.
-
so it's gonna be like D.Gray Man but with breast milk :D
-
Oh you, Japan. I came.
-
FINALLY! A manga and anime that ridiculously uses my church in blasphemous ways. Sure, you got your strange Catholicism in Berserk and Chrono Crusade and shojo manga Priest. Yet finally someone made a total BS take on the Eastern Orthodox Christian church. Just read one chapter and they're talking about an icon of the Theotokos (The Greek name for the Virgin Mary) of Tsartsyn. And they show Mary breast feeding Christ as a child. Of course the story uses this holy image to promote a lactation fetish and sex slavery. Japan is awesome. lol. I find it too ridiculous to be really offended. Wow. This exists because someone gets a boner from looking at the Virgin Mary breast feeding. in japan everything is a fetish... and we mean EVERYTHING.
-
@Brion Well, to quote Randy Marsh: "Once you jack off to Japanese girls puking in each other's mouths, you can't exactly go back to Playboy."
-
So on a side note, why can't there just be regular hentai? I mean why have pedo, rape/murder, shitting, and all that disturbing crap. Some of these films have great animation only to be ruined by some fucked up shit. Is Japan as a whole incredibly pent-up? You know down the line this show will have a "mystical elderly man," who the girls get their powers from too. WTF Japan. I mean god bless you, but wack off once in a while, it'll help.
-
Ah yes. Super-Terrific Japanese Thing. Haven't seen you in a while.
-
THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS.
-
Okay this is BS. I can't image it being anything of a sexual nature. If anything, Japan has become much more conservative when it comes to cartoon nudity than they used to be. Look at some anime from the 80s where nipples and boobs were plentiful. Then start looking at the 90s where sexytime was starting to be replaced by extreme violence much like we Americans have slapped PG13 or R ratings on stuff if a tit or the shit word is used which in the 80s would have been PG. One the other hand, extreme violence and death here gets a PG13 rating. Shit Robocop back in the day was going to get a X rating. Today Robocop would easily get an R and if some of the more graphic scenes were edited out with a little less blood it would get a PG13 rating even though the entire movie is violent as fuck. Japan has gone the same route. Innocent, ha ha, sexy jokes like in Ranma 1/2, Dragonball, Urusei Yatsura, Tenchi Muyo, etc. are replaced by more violent shows and any boobs have been de-nipplized (yes Sailor Moon I'm looking at your naked episode 200 battle, where's the nips). I'm sure this will be weird and it will work in a freaky Japanese way, but don't expect this to be some kind of hentai series. It may be a little more ecchi than most, but I doubt it will be any worse than Family Guy with Peter Griffin trying to breast feed Stewey.
-
Kinda makes me wonder how different Popeye the Sailorman would have been if the FDA was looking to advertise a cheap source of calcium.
-
Well, considering pedophilia is near-legal in Japan, I'm not really all that surprised.
-
Well I guess in a way this will justify underage schoolgirls having abnormal amounts of boobage. I wonder if the females in this series suck their own tits? There seems to be an odd logic here....but then again, if Angel of Darkness II can feature plants that live off of vaginal fluids, what else do you need? Well, the character design is nice, so I'm all for it.
-
How sad is this? When I read this I thought "didn't they already do something like this already?" Apparently now there is nothing about manga that I won't believe without question.
-
Oh, you say sliding further into depravity like it's a bad thing...
-
<I>"Further proof to me that the japanese are a sexually twisted people. I'm just sayin'."</I> ...We could blame it on long-term effects from the fallout caused by Hiroshima and Nagasaki, but the absence of similar pornime from the Former Soviet Union sort of blows that theory out of the water.
-
I'd watch it, especially if Aya Hirano is in it.
-
I'm not sure if this is a new low or a new high. But why do I have the feeling that it'll be reviewed on this site?
-
Sarah, they already have it.
-
Huh, how is this disturbing? I'd watch this show if it didn't sound dull. Anyways, compared to <i>My Balls</i>, this premise is nothing.
-
Who else but Japan :D
-
^ "This"
-
It's an analogy. Milk gives BREAST MILK gives protein, colostrum and other essential minerals and vitamins... hence, it gives "Superpowers." Thius better be UNCENSORED when it comes out in DVD/Blu-Ray!
-
So the Japanese saw our Got Milk commercials and as usual, found the craziest way possible to one-up us. Well-played, Japan. Well-played.
-
It's depressing to realise I'm not at all surprised or shocked by this. There seems to be a show or two like this every season. You really have to wonder about the people/companies who greenlight and finance things like this.
-
Way to go Japan, channel that sexual repression! well what ever helps them gets their kinks out, I'd wont pretend to be disgusted because...well does it make me a bad person to find this oddly alluring?
-
Udderly uncalled for, Japan.
-
I love japan. Just when I think it can't get any odder, something like this turns up.
-
I can't wait until this airs and there are hundreds of anime nerds defending this shit as being perfectly okay. "YOU HAVE TO SEE IT IN CONTEXT. IT WORKS IN THE STORY. THERE ARE REALLY GOOD CHARACTERS." Fuck you, entire nation of Japan.
-
@Indie: Now you're getting it.
-
Sometimes I wonder if the entire population of Japan is sexually frustrated.
-
Further proof to me that the japanese are a sexually twisted people. I'm just sayin'.
-
So, I take it the Super-Terrific Japanese Thing won't be running any more? Because occultist ninjas with breast-milk superpowers kinda wins it. I have to go find the pieces of my head, and put it back together, now.
-
Lemme see...nude breasts, sexual pleasure and violence? Tell me what`s wrong again
-
Maybe this is just too many FFF's I've been exposed to, but I'd watch it. I don't think it belongs on TV, but I'd at least check it out...
-
...<I>Creme Lemon!</i> Come back! All is forgiven!
-
I can only imagine which scenes will get the bulk of the animation budget. There will be ten static drawings for each episode, and 3 beautifully rendered animations of tit suckling.
-
"Dear God, the La Leche league have invaded anime!" Is that anything like the Lollipop Guild? ;)
-
Dear God, the La Leche league have invaded anime!
-
It's only a matter of time before there's show about pretty (most likely underage) school girls trying to archive goddess hood or great power through semen. And it will be completely legit show and it will probably air right after Naruto or One Piece. It WILL happen and I just want everybody to know that I fucking called it!
-
I suspect Cartoon Network won't be picking up this series ...
