About This Game

Key features, mature content description.

The developers describe the content like this:

This game uses a stripping mechanic that leaves enemies in their underwear after combat. One game mode allows players to dress a female character in a revealing outfit (e.g., lingerie/underwear) and follow the camera as it moves around her figure. The game text and dialogue also contain sexual references. The words “f**k” and “sh*t” appear in dialogue. In one fighting mini-game, players use knives and cleavers to slash at each other, resulting in brief splashes of blood.

Video Game / Akiba's Trip

Edit locked.

Akiba's Trip is a series of Beat 'em Up Action RPGs developed by Acquire Corp, known for its three-way combination between geek culture, Urban Fantasy , and brawlers. Set in the tech and hobby capital Akihabara, the basic plot follows humans as they fight off dangers to the town, including store riots, ornery thugs, energy consuming vampires, the city's dark unconsious...

Your player character, a run-of-the-mill otaku caught in the middle of supernatural happenings, is imbued with power and must fight off the enemies of the game before they wreak havoc on the entire town. And you typically do this by stripping them of the will to fight. Literally. Without the clothes on their backs, they're exposed to enough energy to turn them into dust, but since you've got the same powers as them, you're just as toast as they are if you show enough skin.

Titles in the series include:

• Akiba’s Trip: Hellbound & Debriefed (2011, PlayStation Portable)
• Akiba's Trip Plus (2012, PlayStation Portable; remake of Hellbound & Debriefed )
• Akiba's Trip for Gree (2012, Android/iOS; port of Hellbound & Debriefed )
• Akiba's Trip: Undead and Undressed (2013, PlayStation Portable, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, PC, and PlayStation 4)
• Akiba's Beat (2016, PlayStation Vita and PlayStation 4)
• Akiba's Trip 2+A (2017, PlayStation 4; a rerelease of Undead & Undressed with content from The Animation )
• Akiba's Trip (2012, written by Kenji Mizuta)
• Akiba's Trip 2 (2014, written by Rei Kusakabe)
• Akiba's Beat! (2016, written by Choboraunyopomi; yonkoma spinoff)
• Akiba's Trip the Animation (2017, GONZO )

Tropes present throughout the series:

• Bland-Name Product : Twitter appears in Strip as "Pitter" and Beat as "Quipper", though the latter seems to also have some resemblances to Instagram or TikTok.
• Combat Pragmatist : Sure, stripping their clothes off is useful when fighting vampires, but the player character also does it to normal humans in order to humiliate them enough into running away . Just don't attempt this on non vampire females... Just. Don't.
• Double-Meaning Title : Obviously; a trip through Akiba + stripping down enemies to defeat them. Beat is a little harder to figure out without knowing the mechanics: "walking a beat" as you're investigating delusions + a rhythmic beat as your primary weapons are basically music players and you get in-universe Theme Song Power Up music for fights.
• Delusions in Beat only exist as long as the deluser still believes in them. Only once a deluser is about to experience anxiety or a mental break does a way to dispel the delusion become apparent.
• Fanservice : What did you expect from a game about stripping? Most of it comes from the Male Gaze when girls get stripped to their underwear, but there are a few bones thrown for the ladies in Undead & Undressed .
• Intentionally Awkward Title : An invocation of The Problem with Pen Island in the logo and the series' spelling in Katakana (アキバズトリップ) is pretty much guaranteed to make you say "Akiba Strip" .
• Otaku : All kinds of otaku are represented in the series, befitting a franchise taking place in Tokyo's geek culture mecca.
• Our Vampires Are Different : Sensitive to light they may be, but the vampires of Akiba's Trip need most of their body exposed to the sun before they can turn to ash.
• Later-Installment Weirdness : Unlike the other entries, Beat involves taking down demon-like entities with no strip combat present at all.
• Lighter and Softer : Played with. Beat has an underlying plot that's as dark as the rest of the series, but doesn't have any of the strip mechanics and tends to poke a little more fun at itself and its primary protagonists.
• Product Placement : The games and brands represented in the game are all real, often including ads for franchises that really were advertised in Akihabara at the time. The game also has legit flyers from that time for business in Akihabara
• Beat is about fighting literal manifestations of the dark side of otakudom.
• Takes One to Kill One : The only way the protagonists stand a chance against the vampires is by getting turned into one, since normal humans can't fight on equal footing.
• Thematic Series : While the games are disconnected from each other, they all follow the basic premise of Akihabara culture clashing with paranormal trouble.
• Urban Fantasy : Classic demon slaying and vampire hunting action meshes with contemporary pop culture and the youth that consumes it.

O.J. Simpson just died. Is it too soon to talk about his troubled past?

Social media feeds  fill to the brim with capital "RIP" letters and heart emojis after a prolific celebrity dies. Well, not always.

O.J. Simpson – the football star and actor acquitted of the killings of his ex-wife and another man with her that night – has died of cancer at 76. The jury in a civil trial found Simpson liable for the double murder, and he later served nine years in prison for his role in a botched armed robbery.

It completed a stunning fall from grace for the once-celebrated running back who won the Heisman Trophy in 1968. He capitalized on his athletic success in Hollywood, developing a career as a successful actor and TV pitchman. But it all came crashing down after the murder charges that riveted America.

"During this time of transition, his family asks that you please respect their wishes for privacy and grace," Simpson's family wrote in a post on X . Of course, the memes and snark poured in anyway.

But think about other deaths of controversial figures from the last few years: Paul Reubens, also known as children's entertainer Pee-wee Herman , who died recently after a private battle with cancer at age 70. And  Jerry Lee Lewis , who died in 2022 at 87. His career tanked after it came out that at age 22 he  married his 13-year-old cousin . 

Often mentions of these moments erupt in controversy, which is not surprising. After someone dies , fans often turn on those who try to disparage them. 

Experts say no timeline exists for when it's OK to talk negatively about someone after they die. Rather, they say, a celebrity's alleged misdeeds as well as how they died may impact the appropriateness of various responses.

More on O.J. Simpson: O.J. Simpson dies of cancer at 76, his family announces

'Sacred space' gone after someone dies

Take comedy icon  Jerry Lewis  or  Hugh Hefner . Both died in 2017 at age 91, but their names have popped up well after their deaths. Several of Lewis' female former co-stars accused him of sexual harassment and punitive behavior in an article last year in Vanity Fair. And Hefner's former girlfriends, Playmates and employees alleged a culture of abuse in A&E's documentary series "Secrets of Playboy."

More than enough time has passed to allow for a closer examination of these stars,  Robert Thompson , founding director of the Bleier Center for Television and Popular Culture at the Newhouse School of Public Communications Syracuse University, previously told USA TODAY.

In fact, these conversations may have happened a lot sooner if these stars died today.

"There did used to be a sense that there was this almost sacred space after someone had died," Thompson says. "You didn't say anything bad at their funeral and you waited a certain time before you said something bad thereafter. That included your uncle, and it included celebrities."

Lines blurred of 'appropriate' and 'inappropriate' grief

The internet and social media altered the way people communicate. Newspaper editors and heads of television stations previously called the shots on what was appropriate to talk about. Now? Individuals speak freely, online, whenever they want. 

"The lines of 'appropriate' and 'inappropriate' grief expressions, public conversations about their lives on social media – both positive and negative – and time limits, are immediately blurred and often unacknowledged,"  Melvin L. Williams , associate professor of communication studies at Pace University, also previously told USA TODAY.

Different cases call for different responses after someone dies, of course, including how someone died.

To think about: It’s time to cancel ‘cancel culture.’ Call it ‘accountability culture’ instead.

'We were a little too polite and decent'

Our  collective raised consciousness  – which has grown in the last decade in tandem with the rise of social media – only accelerated further due to the #MeToo movement. Many stories never discussed before, particularly about prominent men and their abuses of power, suddenly saw the light of day.

"I don't think there will be any time period after, let's say, Harvey Weinstein or Bill Cosby die," Thompson says. "They will be open season for that kind of thing. We already saw it with Jeffrey Epstein. Nobody was waiting to be polite to Jeffrey Epstein until X number of time had passed."

Reaction to Epstein's 2019 death was exactly how it should have been, Williams says. 

"There should be conversational differences when speaking of a convicted celebrity versus an alleged criminal celebrity figure," Williams says. "However, in the court of public opinion, there exist gray areas where some alleged celebrity figures never supersede their accusations, even when proven innocent." 

These days, even the nicest person in the world could die and some people would still stomp on their (virtual) grave.

"Social media has really lowered the barriers of what's considered polite and decent," Thompson adds. "But I don't want to say that's necessarily a bad thing because we were a little too polite and decent about a lot of things that we didn't talk about that we should have been talking about."
