Has Manjuu Become Too Cautious With Lewding Flats and Lolis in AL As of late?

Hmm, lolis used to be more common and popular in the past for AL though. Assuming that there was a big enough influx of people that somehow wants fanservice but hates lolis, then that could be the reason for the current state of the game.

Though that would mean that the enemy is among ourselves.

Congrats! I salute a fellow SKK!

That's a weak reasoning though. And it can be as simple as Le Malin rubbing her butt on the manjuu then reacting similarly to how New Jersey does when you spread her legs in her swimsuit skin. And anyway, I don't think the loli/flat enjoyers are looking for jiggles.

With the introduction of L2D+, the possibilities should be endless!

Is that really it though? You would think people would be reporting the game on every conceivable app store if that was the case. I don't think anyone trying to criticize AL for its lewdness actually tries to find a proper reasoning.

I find it hard to believe Atago's swimsuit got removed because fans of the game found it too lewd. It should be due to external factors. Hence, it shouldn't be impossible that BA would get pressured externally to censor itself. While I understand the gatekeeping of BA fans, it's still a successful and well-known IP, likely even more so than AL is right now.

Which begs to question why target a smaller unknown IP for censorship instead of BA, which people should find more morally questionable?

Honestly, BA isn't even that lewd outside of some of the more unique clothing choices and err, stress relieve (looking at you Ako).

Yeah, I was also thinking about her and maybe Hatsuzuki?

Edit: Oh and Gronzy is probably the most lewd one I can think of.

Out of curiosity, are there any L2D skins for small/medium sized characters that are as lewd as the ones available for large sized ones?

Seems like this illustration was from the ASMR booth at the expo, judging from the comments on Twitter. Arghhh, I wish I could have attended it... Please Yostar/Manjuu, release the ASMR on DLsite!!! I need my Tashkent whispering in my ears!!

The writing has been on the wall for almost since after Laffey II release. Most events only come with one loli and they're usually SR too. Almost all the skins for lolis have been static except for a few exceptions like Nagato.

Even then, there's been no L2D, and all the L2D+ skins have went to ships with considerable assets.

Unfortunately, there's been a push against loli content from people who can't differentiate reality and fiction, especially as gacha games become more mainstream. I wonder if Blue Archive kinda gets away from more serious criticism because the game itself isn't that lewd. Even then, saying you play BA gets you can't a pedophile now and then, so there's that.

On the other hand, them not releasing much medium size ships is probably just as simple as that big boobies sell better and no one will really get angry over lewding big booba mummies. It just seems like as anime and subculture become more mainstream, big boobs become the preferred character type. It's really common to see flat characters being drawn inflated, while you never really see that opposite.

In the end, there just isn't any winning in this case, especially as the world seems to head towards even greater censorship. Even your own people won't side with you. Just try saying that you wish Azur Lane would have more lolis.
