Strap in.

Yeah. Porn’s fun, but gives me too much agency. And the eyes have too much life—even the animated ones. Can someone save me from money and dignity?

That face…familiar, but hazy and generic. Probably nothing.

Yeah, nothing. Let’s leave it hazy. Lockdown memories belong in the attic, beside middle school and 2025.

The Otaku Box! A miracle for anyone too busy to print their own garbage. A softcore lottery, advertised on every bus between The Javits Center and Bellevue. At the time, a citywide campaign cost less than a current taco.

I thought I nightmared this. Why not abuse PPP loans like other demons? Selling porn addicts lootboxes sounds like selling porn addicts angel dust. That’s pure dopamine witchcraft. “Dick-powered gambling” was the last sentence before Babylon got hectic.

Hmm.

Looks promising. Granted, my mind’s gone. I’m ghost riding a clown car while it pulls a Thelma & Paul Walker. Just like you! Let’s end this journey together. We’ll trade dolls as the speedometer rises.

Is it? I’ll put this in Otaku Box terms—skip to “Welcome back” if you only read real books.

God’s out of shit, and we’re stuck in Mankind: Shippuden. Not Mankind Z. Not Zeta Mankind. Not Mankind: Stand Alone Complex. Not even Mankind: R2. Fucking Shippuden, with new designs for all your favorite demagogues. This isn’t pain. It’s training. The future is Madara posing on a human face, forever.

Welcome back, friends. The anime club just discussed our hopes for the future. Time to spend real money on the Otaku Box.

I’m still spending real money on The Otaku Box.

If it lets me. There’s tons of clutter between me and my box. Odd. This is a pure impulse purchase. The lost and desperate are already in: this page should fast-talk the bored. People that jump off scaffolding just to see what landing feels like. Not that I’d know.

I’ll try the chatbot.

Hi Liz! Is it dropshipped garbage? I hope it’s dropshipped garbage. “Oh rly” says you’re on the older side of weeaboo entrepreneurs, so I expect the finest in dropshipped garbage.

Sorry, I was wrong. This is free! If there’s one word you can trust online, it’s “private.” Sorry, I meant “innovative.” Sorry, I meant “investment.” Sorry, I meant “lonely milfs.” Sorry, I meant “free.” Free is the content of generosity.

Here’s my personal email. Can I have my free dropshipped garbage now?

Does it matter? None of this goes harder than a June boardwalk. The titillation is more contextual than explicit.

Hear me out. Pretend, for a moment, that your mind is clean. If you saw a maid, you’d assume they were an actor, lunatic, or literal servant, rather than a nerd shepherd. It takes years of training to love or hate this. We’re already mutants.

My waifus? Odd question. Surely true believers buy specific dolls, instead of random dropshipped garbage? The Otaku Box implies your answer is “anyone.” You’re a pickme for fictional maids. Not quite worse than death, but I had to think about it.

There’s a long list of convention favorites attached, so points for authentic gooning. It’s nice to see nerddom rob itself, instead of waiting for Hollywood.

Liz promised free factory rejects. Where are they?

Such largess! So many free unpaid no-fee bonus demo trial sample open alpha no-money-down subprime gratuity options. I can finally let my guard down.

The choice is easy. No removable top, no sale.

Hell yeah.

Wait! Would more money help? I have so much a moderate amount! I can’t lose Captain Girl.

Sorry, “Captain Girl” was comedy autopilot. Fans deserve better than outsider mockery. I’ll make it personal: I can’t lose Esdeath, the mascot for Square Enix giving up. I can’t lose Esdeath, a name clunkier than “Captain Girl.” I can’t lose Esdeath, who looks less like a sex doll as a doll.

Luckily, for just a little money, I can keep my free bride.

Liz won’t fool me twice. My credit card’s drawn, ready to rescue my queen.

Don’t try to talk me out of it. This maid’s a personal achievement: I recognized the other two dolls on sight, and every name on the waifu list. But I have no idea who this is, and that fills me with hope’s light. I will fight and die for her removable top.

This seems exploitative. I can get an awesome free doll, and turn weeks of dick jokes into boxes of love? I’ll keep things ethical, and stick to one porn box. Giving away 11 FREE ITEMS for just a thousand dollars must take more slaves than Hershey.

This seems exploit–

Jeez, I didn’t even finish the last–

FUCK. STOP.

Free’s getting expensive.

I don’t need this, I have plenty of Confederate kid lit to cover. Fuck. Yeah, I need this. You’ve worn me down, I’ll take the shirt. All my dates should know that I’m an Otaku Box owner.

What do you think this is? What Mormon billionaire buys a censored Otaku Box? Wallowing in half-measures isn’t success. Ask [political free space]. A censored Otaku box is a softer boner for the same money.

Nah, cosplay downloads imply real women and virtual products. I’m here for the polar opposite. Stay focused, Liz.

Though I’m a little worried. What if, somehow, I stop wanting monthly boxes of lead-enhanced toys?

I’ve seen worse. Though if you don’t cancel early, they’ll accidentally unfortunately regretfully tearfully cry-jerkingly charge you for more dropshipped garbage. There’s also a support email, or prayer if you feel like doing something useful.

Jesus fucking Christ, this is fucking great! The free lunches never stop. Nice to see this lazy generation working. Granted, our work ethic turned privacy, attention, and groundwater into memories. A wise world would make us stop working, at gunpoint, before we update those dog-shaped killbots. I think they’re called “Oppression Puppers.” But there’s grind to hustle, so we have Liz.

And I have my box. Bye money! I’ll miss you. I could’ve eaten you, or bought books. But I guess manga fandom’s not about reading.

It’s nice and warm out. Perhaps forever! I’ll take my box out for a walk.

Naturally, I’m recording 2024’s main event. Your first box is special.

I gave the spot some thought. We’ll need plenty of light to photograph my porn. And a nice backdrop. The park felt right.

The one next door. I live here. People recognize me.

The box’s design has some restraint. From the front. The sides tell your neighbors what’s up.

Liz came to see us off. Nice gesture. She looks cool in an apartment lobby, and perfect in a public park.

Sick. I invited the old guys playing Shittier Badminton, and they splashed me with holy water. It’s a pretty conservative area. And a rude one, that shit burns.

We know about the first month’s dolls. But what about the other worthless dropshipped garbage? Let’s see what gambling has for us.

It might be the heatstroke talking, but this card’s a bargain. There’s no mermaid porn online, so it’s rare stuff. What else would I have bought? Food? Rent? A non-stolen bike? All abundant in New York.

Sometimes, while reading One Piece, I think “I wish this sucked shit.” So I get enjoying Fairy Tail. In 2008. The Otaku Box might have a bit of a backlog. Next month they’ll send out Astro Boy Tijuana Bibles.

This bottle opener would thrive at parties you avoid, and shatter after two bottles of mead. I won’t get much out of it. The box drained my slush fund. And normal fund.

Does mass-production at negative expense make this card a little extra worthless? Sure. But this dropshipped garbage is recyclable. The planet’s choking on Otaku Boxes. The retirees glaring my way are melting.

Today’s winner, full stop. This has van art appeal. Call my standards warped by the endless maids above or reading Snow Crash before I could multiply, but there’s a spark. This is acceptable dropshipped garbage. Maybe Liz loves us.

Ignore the pin-up ninja. The material looks and feels off. I hate to accuse Liz of cutting corners, but this looks like her sweatshop unionized. The Otaku Shirtwaist Fire makes for a depressing day of history class.

Don’t worry, not all of our gifts are dignity-sized. Chainsaw Man makes an appearance:

Power reimagined as a Hustler Club nurse. Great covers bring something new to the original, and this is no exception. You can point at any Chainsaw Man page and find something wild. Half would be hornier than this, in a more interesting way. It’s a factory for dorm posters. So a pinup this generic takes inspiration. This poster is the flag of mediocrity. Liz sees Slave Girl Leia and thinks “what if she was a maid?”

For audiences? Nothing serious. For artists? Venial laziness. For studios? Mortal laziness. But back to Nurse Power. I have a question.

Dork Spoilers Ahead: is porn of a famously dead character odd? How popular is Wattpad’s Uncle Ben tag? Was Sexy Ned Stark a big Halloween costume? How much global democracy erotica is there? This feels like hentai for necromancers.

That’s the joy of gambling. Sometimes you lose, and sometimes you lose later, but worse. Today, we have three sure bets: our free dolls. The first/only choice Otaku Box owners make, and my reward for joining Liz’s para-family.

In my criminal podcaster past, I rambled a bit about genre inbreeding. Niche art copying peers, until any roots in human life or thought are gone. That has nothing to do with this box art! Or The Time My Sister Was Reborn as My Stepsister But Legal and I was Reborn as Abraham Lincoln. Let’s move on.

Some shows are power fantasies. Here, the fantasy’s an unbreakable spine. It looks like I forgot her featherbrush, because I did.

Alright, let’s rip this band-aid off:

A steamy band-aid rip. I’m Dennard, the joke-committer. I love this! I can’t wait to show my face in public!

I’d add Overlord jokes, but I’m short on data. I got through one episode before remembering every other show exists. This character is definitely yesterday’s jelqing flavor, so my trash backlog theory is intact.

But that’s debatable. It’s definitely an ass-man’s doll:

Idea for manufacturers: I get the action poses and subby kneeling, but consider some variety. There’s a lot of space in-between. Wall-twerking dolls would sell out by the end of this sentence.

No virgin jokes today. Liz’s ideal customer remembers sex. A distant flash of heat and connection, gone forever. Sex’s echo haunts him, like fees on an overdrafted Paypal card. Why torment himself? Why mix gambling and porn? The same reason he got a credit card from Paypal. To chase a dragon. It looks like a ten-year-old breakup, but it’s actually 2000-year-old loneliness.

Where’s our main eventer? I can pretend Akame Ga Kill is good for a few paragraphs. Probably. It’s worth a college try.

Ms. Freeze’s package got a little more TLC. Something about putting Sub-Zero, Eva Braun, and sports implants in a blender speaks to people. How’s our star look?

I wonder what expression they’re going for.

I’ve got nothing. Her coy/confused/depressed/empty expression is six design priorities behind her Vegas tattoo. Money well spent. One of my nicer friends reads these, and now I have her birthday gift.

You should know the Ice Queen’s rich history. Esdeath’s cold-hearted, so she has ice powers. The “Death” in her name tells you she’s mean, much like Joan TaxFraud or Dwight Nationalism. She freezes herself in the end, winning diet pathos and your loneliest coworker’s heart.

She can lead our idol group.

As for the removable tops? No. Our romance has limits. For you, I’ll defraud insane poets, taunt Ivy League lawyers, or light money on fire. But I can’t strip three dolls in a public park, pose them, and meet Brooklyn’s Finest. I love my teeth, flat and sharp alike. You might say it’s not a serious crime. Note “Brooklyn cops.” Ask a Thulean clown to do it.

I have some impulse control.

Perfect impulse control.

Anyway, gambling rules. Mix it with every dopamine source in your life. I’m off to meet a lawyer, a doctor, and no therapist.
