Topic: looking for the name of an anime?

Posted under Off Topic

recently my boyfriend has been wanting to watch an anime with me but he only know if one fight scene.

where the samurai kills two brothers that are either pedophiles or just have molested a little boy?

I may have been just an episode but he doesn't know it could have been a movie. any info if any one has would be great!

If no one here recognises it, you might want to try a more anime/hentai centric community that specialize in tracking these types of things down. I mentioned a few that were more hentai related in another thread here and some of those links might be useful for this too. But that's just what I found through google. There's probably a lot more community options for identifying general anime than there is for communities that will identify hentai. In any case, the best of luck in your search!

Stop trolling people, Mutisija. If a person's asking, especially via a brand new thread, then they don't know and will believe you. Pointing them to something you know is wrong is just being an ass.

I have no idea what it is, and now I'm scared to go looking.
"Boku no" sort of means "Of mine," but I don't know what "Pico" means.

Basically it means 'I'm Pico', as in, 'My name's Pico', and it's an anime about paedophillia. Which is also shown in the anime.

I don't understand why people throw in an extra a on things that shouldn't have them o.o

Because I use English - as in, not American English?

It's not even recognized by my auto-correct plugins, so I almost didn't know what you were even talking about.

Because pedo means foot in Latin, while paedo means child.
It's a bastardization of the Latin word that a child fucker is called a pedophile, when the word means foot lover.

Which is also the reason why a pedometer is counting steps, not the paedophiles in the area.

"Holy shit! The more I walk on the street the more pedophiles appear! I gotta report this to the police *runs* OH FUCK! THEY'RE MULTIPLYING!! :O"

If you have them set to American English, they will tend to be marked wrong. Depending on the complexity of the dictionary it uses, it may not even be in the suggestions.

There are a lot of words (faeces/feces, foetus/fetus, diarrhoea/diarrhea) that have alternate spellings in British. These are because they come through Latin* which were spelled with æ/œ at the time that when they were taken into English. The British (and French) retained this characteristic but have mostly split the letter into ae/oe for convenience (partially because of typewriters), and American English ended up shortening it to just the e. The American spellings are starting to increase in usage though and I wouldn't be surprised if we started to see a measurable trend towards the British the shorter spelling within the next 100 years or so.

* Except for foetus, which was actually spelled fetus. The spelling choice is more of an anomaly than anything.

Ped- as in foot comes from Latin while paedo/pedo comes from Greek prefix paid- meaning child. This is one of the reasons why the British still spell pedometer as pedometer and not paedometer.

Edit: Also -phile is a Greek suffix, the word for foot fetishism would probably be more like "podophile", but I don't know that anybody would actually use that (for obvious reasons).

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a paedometer app using all available sex offender data and GPS for phones.
