Actually, I think they're just watching a normal anime, not pr0n. In the previous comic, Hannelore said she was returning manga and didn't specify that it was yaoi (though presumably she borrowed yaoi as well ... and maybe those are also in that huge pile?). Based on the fact that Marigold says there's an anime to go with the manga, I think we can assume this is something with a real plot and (clearly) several episodes.

me thinks it's probably porn-tastical

Is it cold in here?:
Ooh, I can be nerdishly detail oriented!

Marigold referred to the stack Hannelore brought back as "this series"(1440), implying it was just one.

In 1420, Hannelore asked to take "the whole series" of Magical Love Gentlemen.

Magical Love Gentlemen is what Hanners said they were watching in 1441.

MLG may be something mainstream with a plot, but it was enough to get Hannelore to blush.

Ghanima Atreides:
Hannelore also blushed when she grabbed the butt of a static robot while thinking she was alone and no-one could see it. I think just two guys kissing would be enough to make her blush. In fact, she's known to blush quite easily.

I don't think Magical Love Gentleman is pornographic at all -for once, the girls were not at all fazed by Angus' arrival who promptly referred to it as a "dude-romance cartoon", the plot is described as "nuanced and compelling" and I doubt a straight guy would sit through several episodes of explicit guy-on-guy action then cry at the end. In fact, from everyone's behaviour I'd say it is more cheesy-romantic than porn, which is amusing since everyone was anticipating some hot Marigold/Hanners masturbation session at the very least.  :roll:

JackFaerie:
As someone who's actually watched this stuff on occasion: I am pretty sure all MLG has is a bunch of kissing scenes. Very romantic, emotional kissing scenes, surrounded by a lot of plot, motivated by many repressed/hidden feelings, secret betrayals, and tragic circumstances.

I would also like to say that even the "porntastic" yaoi stuff tends to have a fair amount of plot. Take the classic Ai No Kusabi: most of the plot is a string of fairly intense sex scenes.  However, the plot is still a PLOT: we have an entire distopian society set up and introduced, we have class warfare, we have gangs and black market scams and discussions about eugenics and social structure and all sort of musings on what makes a society vs an individual strong or weak, etc... and we have a rather lovely forbidden love story.  Just... surrounded by a lot of sex.

Or "Fake,"which was generally pg-13, but had some sex scenes.  If Hannelore opened it at various points in the manga, she would probably blush. But it was about two cops solving cases, and each episode had a genuine Law-and-Order type murder/theft/organized-crime/whatever case that formed the main focus of that installment.
