Mom says her son needs 'extensive therapy' after reading a manga book he checked out

I don't think yours does either when you have a request for any film score sheet music either.

:/

:/

...because that's entirely relevant to taste

I ask for scores (the written music, not the soundtracks) in order to learn more about orchestration, styles, etc. I'm a music student.

I doubt there's a comparable excuse for liking LOST.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

YOU'RE JUST A BIG MEANIE.

the kid is reading freaking Manga porn

anyone into any type of damn Manga needs help


yea, I'd say therapy is in order

 

[Silvermoth]

All I can say is seen in this image...

 

[SuperFerret]

I say we declare war on the Japanese, but no nukes this time. That's what caused this problem.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

I think we should just send an army of super ferrets over there.

But due to an assassination of the SFS creator, we only have one.

He is. The Super Ferret.

 

[SuperFerret]

Aesop, dude, I don't swing that way.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

Swing what? The AMERICAN WAY?

 

[SuperFerret]

If that's what the kids are calling it nowadays, then yes.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

Yeah well....

OK, the kid is a teenager who steals adult books from the library, and somehow that's the library's fault? All because they have adult oriented material? Shouldn't mommy be more worried about the theft? Hell, I stole some Playboys from a convenience store when I was teenager? I guess my parents should have petitioned the store not to sell the magazines so I wouldn't be tempted to steal them?

Which ironically, all have female owners.

This:

the kid is reading freaking Manga porn

...does not lead to this:

anyone into any type of damn Manga needs help

 

[Rumpy Bulge Dubz]

yes, it does

maybe not in your book, but it does

 

[The Battousai]

yes, it does

maybe not in your book, but it does

It's not "my book" - it's called logic.

Let's look at a scenario using your reasoning:


Rob Liefeld made and produced a lot of terrible comics in the early 90s, and it sparked an oddly popular genre of terribly drawn, horribly written comics.

Because these awful excuses of comics exist, ALL comics must be awful.


I doubt anyone would agree with this sentiment.

 

[SuperFerret]

No, but those are American comics. Anything Japanese that doesn't involve Godzilla tends to be awful.

This does not compute...

 

[Rumpy Bulge Dubz]

I know

 

[The Battousai]

No, but those are American comics. Anything Japanese that doesn't involve Godzilla tends to be awful.

...based on what? Panty vending machines, Hentai, and Yaoi? Every culture has their weird **** - America is no exception. The difference is that they don't have outraged parents banning everything they don't like.

 

[SuperFerret]

Also, the Japanese can tell when someone's joking.


Oh, and Dragonball Z alone makes Japan deserving of all the hate it gets.

 

[The Battousai]

I'm getting a very high reading right now

 

[Aesop Rocks]

Hey look, a picture of someone from The Simpsons.

Won't be as funny as this Manga picture I have.

It's of Tyoshi and Kan Le realizing that they found the authentic dragon-sword of their grandfather Muko's time in the Yakuzin army!!! ^_______^ so kawaii!!!~~

 

[The Battousai]

Oh, did I make someone angry?
