Yeah I must say I think that your right, well you know the OC is normally know for it's edgy material. I know that often times the same show will air on the TV when it's during the show, but a hentai title....fox playing a little joke or what?

Well, thast the last thing I would wanna watch with the GF. "Yeah, let's say you and me spoiler[watch a slavegirl in meido uniform get chased by a buncha Dobermans, and then see her pantsu get ripped off and licked by a dog.] Wanna **** afterwards?

Still, even if they didn't show the naughty bits, kida risky IMHO.

True...it's sad when you have to grab a hentai title just to fill the screen of a tv in the background of a tv show. Very Happy I guess they didn't think anyone would notice...good eye Abarenbo Shogun...though I still can't tell whats happening in the third image? Could it be the dog scene you mentioned cause I can't really make out a dog in that, maybe if I look at it in a diffrent angle.

After seeing that episode of Cool Devices, that's definitely it (I believe it's part 2 of it)! I find that fairly amusing though. Laughing

As to any other fox show? Or perhaps they wanted something that was graphic and didn't want the audience to know what it was.....too bad for FOX that the ANN is on the case.

P.S. BTW people are still watching OC?

That was Cool Devices alright. I wonder if the actors knew it was hentai?

The OC is still airing new episodes? I say we make a big stink out of it, maybe then that'll get the "OC" to stop it with this Anime fixation the writers/producer/director seems to have.

It's not publicity at all, IMO. If anything it's just an easter egg-type thing that the producers (or maybe even the director) added in. And I have to cosign on whoever said that it'd be easy enough to get a sample/royalty/license cleared (whatever the terminology is for tv). It probably costed Fox about $7...
