Ridiculous Manga Regulation Law

[hisaya_him3ko]

Apparently, there is some legislation going on about changing the manga industry so that characters who appear under the age of 18 cannot do violate things or engage in sexual behavior, etc.  In short, everything we see now will basically be illegal from Fullmetal Alchemist, Naruto, D.Grayman (your typical shounen series) to yaoi manga.

Yeah. I just read this in the newspaper today. I think it's idiotic to pass such legislation. Manga artists are pretty pissed off at this. I kind of wonder how this whole thing will play out...

I am optimistic that it won't come to pass, but that's because I am semi in denial. Being angry or upset about it isn't going to change anything, so all I can do is hope for the best. There are only 69k signatures T__T I wonder when there will be 100k.
