.....County not country huh? "waits for bonk on head"......*BONK*

Still, the title of the topic will be misleading for most.

Sorry Rurounikeitaro I just took the title from the article (plus an "!"). It is true that it could be a little misleading, but most titles from SciFi Wire are ususaly twisted around in a funny way. My favorite was “Tapping guests on EarthSea!” which was of course about Amanda Tapping being in the movie, and not about having sex with the cast.

My mum's a librarian fighting to get manga INTO libraries... and she's succeeding. It's not that stupid everywhere.

To quote Mark Twain: "Censorship is telling a man that he can't have a steak because a baby can't chew it."

I mean... what is more horible... two or more persons enjoying themselves in an intimate way or two or more person spilling eachothers lifesblood?

And now im not even touching the the curses.

From what I've heard, and seen in some cases, it's quite the opposite in other places like the UK, where they tone down the violence, and boost up the sex. o.O

It doesn't matter what they do. Kids are still gonna rummage through the anatomy section going "hee hee" at all the drawings of genitalia.

This reminds me of that time one of the law things marked "all anime is explicit" and finally took that down when they realized the truth, or something like that. (it's been a while)

This is what makes America look so stupid. Ya know what, that book was in the Adult section. My opinion is it wasn't even bad enough to be there..maybe the Teen section, but not the Adult section. Some of the anime art books i have to learn by are much more graphic. Plus, i also read normal novels, and i read one one time that had deeply depicted sex scenes using only words, and there were at least 3-4 scenes like that, and those books were in the Teen section of the local library near me, with the exception of one being here at my High School.

Tell me what is so bad about that book compared to everything else on TV, other books, and other media nowadays. There's WAY more stuff out there that's much worse than this lil spout.
