Periods. In anime

Ok, serious question here.
Have you ever noticed that the girls in anime series about teenage girls never reference periods at all? There is never even a single hint at them being a thing in any way. Not even a discreet nod. I get that anime production is extremely regulated by investor/market demands so they have to keep it as appealing as possible, and I'm sure various manga series don't hold back in incorporating this topic in depth. Nevertheless, depictions of, and references to sex, vomit, snot, piss and even shit sometimes (although it's always just discreetly referenced as a need) abound. Periods don't seem to be even acknowledged as a concept.
But am I even right about this? Have I just not watched enough of those teenage girl anime, and there's one where they do?

Oh, and I'm not talking about fetish hentai anime either.
I'm talking about commercial, mainstream stuff.

>vomit, snot, piss and even shit
literally never referenced, maybe vomit very rarely. What garbage are you watching.

Because it's fantasy written by male virgins

none of that shit is ever referenced as part of standard biological function, nobody wants to see that shit on tv, at most it's for comedic purposes (drunk vomit) and periods are fucking nasty

Didn't they talk about them in Galko? The whole show is talking about biological functions.
Some manga have it referenced but it gets filtered out of the anime adaption, just checked Karin and they seemed to remove that reference.

There is a scene in Jubei-chan: Secret of the Lovely Eyepatch in which the protagonist Nanohana Jiyu is asked what it feels like to transform into the legendary samurai Yagyuu Jubei, to which she responds, "like a heavy period."
So yes they do.

It famously comes up in Ojamajo, but what doesn't?

Man, imagine K-On with periods as a plot point.
Mio blushing the moment anyone mentions the word. Ritsu claiming her stomache is playing the drums with her. Mugi being oblivious to it all, due to being born without a womb (aka being gaijin). Yui having to be reminded by Ui to change her tampons regularly.
It just wouldn't be the same.

It can work in some shows and genres but K-On would definitely not be one of them.

Because the target audience is male and there's no reason for men to care about periods.

Its rare but it can happen, Kodomo no Jikan has more detailed talking about it and I'm sure I'm forgetting others.

They would just move practice to another day, it's not that big of a deal (and also not plot relevant, so there would be no reason to include it).

Because in anime world they don't have disgusting shit like that you degenerate. Take your garbage fetish to /b.

because theres literally no point, it adds nothing to the series
you need to look for series about girls, for girls, written by girls, like joshikosei

Anime girl farts.

Why would they be brought up? Like for what reason?
Also Goblin Slayer does make mentions of it. They don't say it outright, but things like "it's her 'sick' day" implies as much.

One thing I like about Japs is the respect to the viewer.
Creators do not hate their fans, no one there goes "it's an art, fuck you". They are aware and grateful to viewers because they know they have job only because of them. They know that when fans hate them, it's their fault, not that viewers can't appreciate their work.
I watch anime because it's fun. It won't be fun if girls have periods. I don't want them to have defects, hair down there, huge brown nipples. They are supposed to be perfect beautiful angels. Creators know that and they will try to deliver, because that's their job. They got paid for making entertainment, not for expressing themselves by disappointing viewers.

Yeah, because non-virgins love periods.

It seems like lately there has been movement among progressives to "remove social stigma" of periods or something. Shit is disgusting, and actions like that is going to bring even more shame to girls who are not shameless whores.

>vomit
>akari from yuru yuri

I don't remember that.

Op here.
Oh yeah, that scene from toradora. Completely skipped my mind.
I guess they do, but it is still noticeably rarer than the other stuff.

They do in Slayers.

Do you have a collection of these?

Anyway, looks like I'm steadily being proven wrong. I guess the fact that I don't remember any of these proves that their references really are discreet as hell.

I'd like Akari to fart in my face if you catch my drift.

It happens all the fucking time, what are you on.

Lucky Star. I can't remember which episode, though.

>Have you ever noticed that the girls in anime series about teenage girls never reference periods at all?
Yes and that is good.

You mean like the progressive feminist movement to ban erotic content and loli in anime? Oh wait, that's stigmatisation...

Think he meant letting other people know you have period. No one's interested in that shit EXCEPT shameless whores.

Didnt you see Lucky Star?

Again, nobody's talking about depicting things explicitly.
There are ways to do reference the topic with tact and discretion. That's the kind of reference we're talking about, and based on the evidence provided so far, it seems there are actually already plenty.

Nah, they do get mentions here and there. Some explicitly stated, some obliquely referred to. More common in shoujo and josei works.

Or, you know, girls aged 13-14 who are just beginning to have them (East Asian girls mature at an older age) seeking information and support from their friends?
The kind of demographic that all these series are about?

>shameless whores.
>interested in periods
What?

I did, but only once and it was years ago.

Yeah, I'm beginning to understand that I misjudged the situation and that these references are common.

>seeking information and support from their friends?
Nobody does this.

I remember that ghost in the shell manga had a joke about motoko's period disturbing the connection or something
Asuka was complainig about it in neon genesis evangelium as well.

jack off before posting

I can think of a lot of things from anime that people don't actually do.

They've added like 7 emoticons to Unicode to symbolize periods few weeks ago.
There has been some series on buzz feed or whatever where girls would show their used tampons to their bf and they were making huge deal out of it, h3h3 talked about it few months ago.

Just referencing it might bring some disgust. It's better to avoid it all together.

>evangelium

but yeah, evangelion also showed a boy jacking off on her tits, so it's a one of a kind series.

Who the fuck cares about buzzfeed videos and emojis

If the point is to avoid disgust, then why are some kinds of disgust allowed for comedy purposes?
Just because it's funny doesn't make it less disgusting.

which is why I will never touch that garbage.

>Just referencing it might bring some disgust. It's better to avoid it all together.
Why are you dumb males such fragile pussies.
I'm not gonna shove a tampon up your face, but periods arent a big deal. You bleed and get all grumpy, thats it.

I'm damn sure Galko-chan had something along those lines.

>I'm not gonna shove a tampon up your face
What if I beg?

Vomit somewhat regularly follows characters that have been drinking.

Quick, someone post that Kodomo no Jikan webm about Mimi lying about her period!

All the workings of the human body are filthy and revulsive. I pray the day soon comes when we can shed these cages of ever-decaying meat and become higher beings.

Because it's gross

Because they're not 3DPD. They don't need to follow whatever fuckery 3DPD biology has.

Or that you are dumb.

There was that one OVA called Naisho no Tsubomi, where the first episode was about a girl getting her first period.

As I said, progressives. Apparently they have quite large audience.

Cultural aspects. Some disgusting topics can be fun, others not. Human psychology isn't that simple.

That's what makes us human. Feeling disgust is an evolutionary mechanism to prevent you from getting infections and contamination.
Anime is not jackass, it's not about who can handle more disgust. Anime is supposed to be more or less clean and pretty. Adding periods to it won't make it manlier or please mature/chad audience.

>infections and contamination
From periods? Are you stupid.

Piss gets mentioned all the time because the japs are watersports fetishists and also it is pretty much a vanilla fetish (comparatively) as far as their porn is concerned.

Girl pee isnt seen as gross but rather as cute.

The other things you mentioned show up about as often as periods, but you are also clearly a newfag if you can't recall mentions of them because they certainly exist.

The idiosyncrasies of the anime visual style allow it to augment and aestheticise all human emotions and responses, not just the positive ones associated with cleanliness and prettiness.
Experimentation and versatility are what gives anime the dynamic for evolution and change and prevent it from completely becoming a tired collection of cliches.
I've never once heard anyone say that anime in general is "supposed" to be anything, least of all "clean and pretty". You are talking about particular genres of anime, not the medium as a whole.

> Some disgusting topics can be fun, others not. Human psychology isn't that simple.
It depends more on how you present them than what it actually is. Appearances and presentation matter more to human psychology than facts.

I'm not arguing for adding more periods to anime. I was just asking why this particular topic is considered more taboo than other bodily functions such as vomit. And anyway, turns out I was wrong and periods get brought up all the time in anime in non-digusting ways, as the thread shows.

Have you not seen Lucky Star. It was hinted at.

>not being able to recall things makes you a newfag

never change

>it adds nothing to the series
first period means they can be impregnated, and more generally a sign of adulthood so the girl could start sluttying it up afterwards and we'd like to see that in both comedic and ecchi context.

I did, once, about 7 years ago, and I wasn't looking for period references.

Off the top of my head I remember Railgun and Jojo referencing periods too

I guess it would make them... period pieces?

Attached: 2807953.jpg (600x600, 35K)

In Slayers there's an episode that explains that female mages cannot use their magic when they are on their period.

In Otome wa boku ni koishiteiru, the girls casually talk about their period and they ask the MC how he deals with that, forgetting he is a crossdressing boy.

In Genshiken Madarame recalls a scene at school when he sees one of his female classmates crying and being consoled. He jokingly asks if she started her period. He was right. He got slapped hard.

In Omohide Poroporo it shows kids at school as they learned of periods, and the boys start bullying the girls treating period as if it was a contagious infection.

Asuka has her period in episode 23 i believe, when her sync ratio is super low. Misato says shes its that time of the month, then it cuts to Asuka in the bathroom, clutching her stomach, saying "Why me? I never asked to be a girl" or something to that effect.
Casca also gets her period and nearly dies because of it when shes fighting General Adon, way back in the Golden Age

Because it's rarely ever relevant to the story.

Whether you were looking for it or not, it wasn't even a subtle hint.

I always think of Gunslinger girl when I think of periods in anime.

Unless they are a tranny pedo like Joanathan Yaniv.

I don’t think women watch most of the shows with cute girls talking about nothing or performing male hobbies.

The only scenes I remember from the lucky star anime are:

>Konata eating cornettes
>Timotei
>Kagami thinking she got asked out on a date
>the last scene with the dance/op theme
>Misao saying she sucks at the video game

It was a long time ago and I don't remember any periods. Leave me alone.

There's a reference to it in Lucky Star, Timotei episode.

Isekai Smartphone makes it subtle by having the twins not be around for a mission and when MC asks if they are sick the other girls just cover it but he gets the point.

>watching literal garbage

>Piss
You're either trolling or a newfag, this is so common, you sometimes even see girls literally pissing (e.g Satania)

Anyways, periods is the single most disgusting thing about women, that's why it's never shown.

pretty sure it did, incidentally, that show is great

This user is right.

>The kind of demographic that all these series are about?
Most CGDCT series are aimed at teenage or even adult men.

>vomit

>girls wanting to pee
That's cute though

>snot after crying, or when they have a cold
Also cute.

>girls needing the toilet for number 2
Never happens.

Yeah but that wasn't my point. It's very normal for girls to ask or talk about their first period with their friends and not a taboo or whatever the original user implied.

>I don’t think women watch most of the shows with cute girls talking about nothing or performing male hobbies

This is true, but I was using the word demographic to refer to the demographic of the in-series cast

The girls at my school lent each other pads, ibuprofen, and tampons pretty often. It's just something the boys were not let in on, for obvious reasons.

This

What? How does it work/help.

You practice turning your hormonal responses into physical sensations without allowing them to transform into emotional reactions.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James–Lange_theory

It's one of the principles of mindfulness meditation.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_semantics

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James–Lange_theory

Would love to see you practice mindfulness when someone stabs your abdomen and then twists their fist in the wound for 3-7 days straight every month.

Dealing with acute physical pain is probably one of the clearest, most beneficial uses for mindfulness.
Ideally it is prefaced with some initial practice in calmer circumstances.

It can't hurt that much. You're exaggerating.

Galko did it.

this thread proves once again that the school system is failing to teach accurate information about periods and really puberty in general

Are you refering to the study on mindfulness in 1985 or do you have another source?

I'm not. The pain usually varies a lot between girls and also different months, it can go from barely noticable, to mildly annoying, to stomach-ache like cramps just lower, to very painful but managable with pain meds to so mindblowing painful you can't think straight and even meds won't help (which is the type of pain that happens very often with endometriosis). You never know which one it's going to be this month, not even mentioning all the side effects and pains that can also happen in addition to the initial pain, the hormones and the procedure of handling periods. They really suck and there's more behind it than just being irritated for the sake of being irritated.
Hence why there's no reason to make it a topic in anime, it's not cute or interesting or something worth fetishising.

Same way they almost never reference earthquakes, or you never see pic related in anime even though you can't walk 5 meters in Tokyo or anywhere else in nipland without seeing that ugly ass mask

If anime doesn't, who will?

I'm referring to personal experience and the theory and methodology behind General Semantics.
The practice of mindfulness is not focused on "dealing with pain" in the sense of removing symptoms or mitigating the physical sensations of pain. It is to do with preventing the association of those physical sensations with an emotional experience of "suffering".

>Hence why there's no reason to make it a topic in anime, it's not cute or interesting or something worth fetishising.

As some who likes guro/blood in general, omorashi, and somewhat menstruation, I see menstruation like omorashi but eith blood. Both are involuntary, stain clothes or things meant to contain the urine/blood, and are very embarrassing and humiliating for the subject.
Omorashi is still vastly superior though.

I mentioned the comparison to guro, but I guess I should add that if there is one, then menstruation is "guro-lite". It's like "barely even guro" for girls who can't handle the classic version, which adds a cuteness dimension to it.
And I agree with the omorashi comparison.

In real life, girls don't talk about period either. I've never spoken about it casually to anyone, why the fuck would I?

Cis girls generally avoid talking about vagina stuff with transgirls in order to avoid evoking envy. Don't worry about it user.

they made an anime about menopause?

That's a nice response user, you can believe what you will. But really, there's no reason to talk about what feels like someone twisting your intestines till they're about to spring open, while you feel the afterpain of someone beating your lower back with a sledgehammer, for days on end. It FUCKING hurts. Also keep in mind how disgusting it is to have lumpy blood coming out of you at the same time, and did I mention that you get diarrhoea too?
I hate those weird trannies who purposfully fake having period with weird liquid containers. They should be happy that they don't have to deal with it.

Attached: 1534469929425.jpg (345x401, 69K)

I'm starting to think the reason you don't talk with girls about your period is because yours just happen to be much worse than those of any other girl's that you've met.

I'd imagine if multiple girls who knew each other all had symptoms as bad as you're describing, they'd form a kind of support group around that as a form of relief, like how people with certain chronic illnesses form support groups.
The worse the symptoms are, the more people tend to want to share their suffering with other people who are going through the same.

It might be that no other girl around you has it as bad as you, so it would be awkward to talk about it to someone who doesn't know what it's like and won't know how to respond.

That seems reasonable, so I'll accept it as being true. Makes sense.

Am I glad that for me it's more bearable. That also makes it harder for others to believe you as they don't experience it themselves, even though it varies a lot.

Sounds like you don't have much close female friends user, esp in school.

You should see a GYN for that. Try taking birth control just to control the symptoms. Also wait, do trannies actually do that? Are ppl that desperate for attention?

In high school I once made fun of a girl being on her period in front of the whole class. She was visibly unsettled by that afterwards.
It was until later that I found out it's a big deal for girls.
I was thinking about it recently and I wanted to apologize to her in a reunion or something but it's been over a decade and she's probably forgot.

What drives a modern female to practice mental fortitude and express restraint in this fallen world? Do you follow organized religion? Second/third gen immigrant?/

F here. I have literally never understood the need for periods to be presented in media out of nowhere.
It's usually used in the context of a girl being bitchy and asked if it's her time of the month, or for pregnancy topic where missing a period becomes a plot point.

But outside of that? What's the point?? Same reason movie characters rarely randomly sneeze or fart outside of a comedic moment, despite those being completely normal bodily functions. It's awkward, out of place and imo ruins immersion

I'm afraid you're under a grave misapprehension. I am not a woman, and with regards to personal experience I was talking about pain in general, not about period pain in particular.

Operative phrase:
>outside of a comedic context

Plenty of comedy in anime

A stoic woman is a pipe dream anyway.
Even one with a modicum of self-respect seems so far at this point.

There was a scene between Misato and Shinji in Eva where Misato mentions that Asuka is unavailable for training or something because of her period.
Also in only yesterday, that ghibli movie, brief mentions periods.

I get that this is a thread about periods, but where the fuck did all these 3dpd women come from?

My friends always know when I’m on my period because my boobs swell up so much that it looks like I grew a cup size. It’s the worst because they hurt like hell along with the cramps and fatigue I get.

Considering you're ready to take the gay pill, I'm assuming that your desire to have a woman was not strictly about procreation.
Why were you looking for a woman in the first place? There is no psychological need that you cannot fulfill within yourself.

I must say, I do laugh at the "You want to be a woman, but what about periods" thing when it comes up around me.
I can't answer what I can't experience.

I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you did watch more than 20 whole animes before making a post about trends across the entire medium, so I'll let you in on some inside knowledge. When a guy asks a girl if it's "that time of the month", he's talking about periods. When a girl says she can't swim or do PE today because she doesn't feel well or "it's dangerous", she's talking about periods. Periods are more commonly found in anime than they are in Yea Forums posts.

I think the question you mean to ask is: Why are periods rarely depicted as explicitly as those other things? In which case, the answer is that not as many people have a fetish for bloody vaginas as them, so it can only be used as a disgustingly crude crude joke or something too subtle for your pure boy mind to understand.

OP here. Best answer in the thread, thank you.
I will keep a look out for more of those hints you mentioned from now on.
You mean to say that when a girl says "kyou wa nanka genki nai" in response to a request participate in an activity with a disgruntled/tired expression, she's on the rag?
I always assumed she was actually iust tired.

It could be either, that's the whole point.

Thing is, they never actually showed her on the toilet, only the aftermath. If they actually showed her doing the deed that would have been hot.

With that said, why the fuck did she poop in school in the first place?

What a wonderful new layer of complexity to explore and consider.
Anime has acquired a new dimension of profundity for me now.

That was in jest, A tru-stoic would never fall victim to nihilism.
It is wholly about procreation, specifically about qualifications for parenting.
Mind-over-matter discipline functions fine for an individual with enough willpower, but the family dynamic needs the love of a father and a mother. The mindset unfortunately is not a panacea for those that see the family as the more critical unit than the individual.

Despite being modern decadence made manifest, you can pretend you aren't among the absolute dregs of society by being one step above your kin that place V8 icicles inside of their science fair volcanoes.

Being a woman?

Someone post that Kodomo no Jikan gif

In Slayers, Lina loses her powers because she’s on her period. It never happens again.

I mean the very first page is Shima waking up in the middle of the night after having her first period.
That was a pretty sweet manga, kinda wish it went on for a little longer.

Guys in not-hentai don't get jerkoff scenes either. Sometimes a guy needs to blow off some steam. That doesn't mean we go around telling everyone we know about how hard we are or that we just blew a load. In fact, that'd be considered sexual harassment nowadays.

So if you're wondering why periods aren't talked about in polite society, it's for the exact same reason. Nobody wants to hear about how you just gushed some blood while on the shitter, or that you're bleeding like a mortally wounded soldier at this very moment.

This isn't sexism, it's the universal standard of having enough tact snd self awareness to know that some matters are personal and private except for maybe the people you're closest to who can relate to what you're going through. Honestly, you dumb bitches should be able to figure at least that much out for yourselves.

It's not a patriarchal conspiracy. You're just being a bunch of fuckin' creeps for trying to force your fetishes (vagina blood, diversity, islsm, fat positivity but only for women, women being strong and independent, etc) on other people like a public masturbator or a guy who always walks around in a fur suit. You're the equivalent of those people, and I'd rather not have your pet kinks in my mongolian basket-weaving storyboards.

Literally me

Girls don't all have it on the same day. And they're not around each other enough for it to "sync" (is that even a thing? I have no idea).
Periods aren't debilitating, just a bit annoying. Crybabies these days want to get the whole week off school/work but women have just dealt with it for centuries even before we had all these modern conveniences. I think the fact that it isn't a big deal is shown in the fact that it rarely comes up, even in very mundane SoL shows.

Snot/boogers seem to be less of a big deal in Japan. At least from what I've seen. How many times do we see a sleeping character with a big snot bubble in their nose to indicate they're sleeping? It's never portrayed as disgusting or anything.

>question is about anime
>retorts with a manga

Women, every single time.

They should have ended at least with Shima going to high school.

Isn't that a crime in Japan?

Masturbating? Yeah you need a derogation delivered by the government in order to be allowed to masturbate. It's a measure instaured in 2009 iirc.

It's in the movie too

Girls will rarely tell you "hey I have a bloody vagina" unless it's necessary to the conversation because it's a gross topic.

In an idealized fantasy world like anime where filth is minimalized, periods are even more rarely referenced (but still are, occasionally).

Yes I remember they had an episode where they talk about period panties

Off the top of my head
>Goblin Slayer
>Evangelion
>Bunny Girl Senpai
Maybe some of the shows I watched also did and I don't remember, and there's probably lots of show I didn't watch that hint it. Now fuck off back to wherever you came from

Jojo DiU has a scene where a character can smell a woman on her period

Yeah Snycing is a thing that happens at least according to my female friends. Also it's less that it's painful and that just some girls release a shitload of blood during that time.

We had a thread about this before and there were like 100 popular shows with those topics, I have the feeling it was a rec thread and OP fool us all.

>ctrl+f Lucky Star
>6 results
Nice.

Kodomo no jikan has at least 3 chapters with something referring to the period + that webm.

>Girls don't all have it on the same day.
The original user implied it, that's why I went with it
>And they're not around each other enough for it to "sync" (is that even a thing? I have no idea).
It is and it can happen in a normal school class after around a year.
>Periods aren't debilitating, just a bit annoying
Be glad you have a light period then. As already mentioned, experiences vary.

Did you forget about the movie that was based entirely around an earthquake? myanimelist.net/anime/6211/Tokyo_Magnitude_80
