Ishihara: “Mangaka are Despicable People!”
« on: March 25, 2012, 12:47:38 am »
Tokyo’s governor Shintaro Ishihara has denounced mangaka as “despicable” for daring to write saucy manga, despite having written scores of trashy rape novels himself.

Ishihara's comments:

“I may have called them despicable, but with stories depicting teachers living with their students, parent and child incest, sibling incest and so on, I really do think anyone making money by writing those kinds of twisted sexual stories is a despicable person.”

“Didn’t you tell the publishers ‘they can stay away forever for all I care!’ and say to mangaka ‘their activities are despicable!’ – do you think they want to work with you now, after you said those things?”

Latest news:
Spoiler for Hidden:
Gen Urobuchi, writer of both Puella Magi Madoka Magica and scores of adult games, has accepted an award for best screenplay from the 2012 Tokyo International Anime Fair – only to use it as an opportunity to force them to publish a condemnation of Ishihara’s efforts to destroy freedom of expression for the anime industry.

Okay, give this ishihara some time off the bus. He's an eyesore. Time for some scolding, give it your all!

I'm not upset, rather I'm jubilant that he made the move.

I think you misunderstood, the title of the thread is a quite of that japanese governor. Not his opinion.
He just point out that fucker governor and the smart move that puella's mangaka did.

thanks for pointing that out. I'm talking about Ishihara's harsh words, not the writer's actions towards him.

I do hope he won't run for a election.

For all I know he's been gathering allies here and there with the pretext of social justice, morality, and so many to mention propaganda. He might be planning something more.

 :pale:I did indeed miss the last line of the original post located under the spoiler box. Sorry about that. As the mayor is an author of highschool girl gangrape novels, I don't see where he has a leg to stand on in a morality platform, but I don't understand Japanese politics at all. Just hope he loses!
