Sorry, excuse my lack of English: what is "Card Captor Sakura gangbang?" Well, yes I know what "Card Captor Sakura" is, but what is "gangbang?" A gun fight? Quote:

Ken used to draw CCS h-doujinshi before he worked on his other mangas. But this isn't uncommon for mangakas'. CLAMP also drew h-doujinshi/yaoi stuff before. |

And yeah, I don't care if people start out with doujins. I like doujins. Oh!Great did lots of porn doujins before he started publishing hardcore hentai mangas, and he's my favorite artist (and I don't dislike his taste in stories, either... although I like many storytellers more). I'm pointing out that Akamatsu and friends did doujins representing the sexual acts of an 11 year old girl and her 11 year old friends and a bunch of faceless 30 year old men. Somehow I find the difference important. Maybe it's just me. (please note that the Akamatsu CCS doujin I saw didn't have the faceless 30 year old men, that was something else. I'm just grouping them all together to show my point about the loli-con genre in general. In other words, this paragraph is more directed at the loli-doujin scene than the discussion at hand). edit: reread the post and saw that my last paragraph seemed to infer some things I didn't intend, so I attempted a clarification ~_~; |

Endless babble of why there would obviously have to be a 'second season'. As if there weren't already three seasons. Of course, that has come to haunt me once more, as I have people asking me daily if the anime and manga end the same way. That question is now a permanent ban on the SC channel, btw.

hmm...I don't recall any of Akamatsu Ken's doujinshis under his circle name LEVEL-X or LEVEL-XX doing any ero-doujinshi about Card Captor Sakura. Perhaps it's from his collaboration project with the doujin circle Roriedou? But by the time Card Captor Sakura was in serialization, Akamatsu Ken was already a professional artist doing "Ai Toma" for Magazine FRESH. Any details? |

actually, the best correlation would be...whaddya know? comics! i dunno if this is true in japan (newspapers in the states are written at a 4th grade reading level whereas i've heard japanese newspapers have been known to come up with new kanji...i'm probably wrong tho) but almost every newspaper across the country has a "Funnies" section: about 2 (6 on sunday) pages of 1-4(the ones with 3 or more get 6+ panels on sunday) panel comics shown on a daily basis. A lot of people who pick up newspapers read the "Funnies"(this is actually a pretty archaic word, but "comic" is much too broad) along with reading the paper. Children will sometimes pick up the paper just for the funnies, as well as some adults (which is really funny to watch them toss away about 50+ pieces of paper from the sunday edition just for 6 pages of "funnies") The artists of these "Funnies" eventually compile the work into volumes that are usually about the same thickness as a manga, and sometimes (since the works are many times inconsistant or follow week-long "mini arcs) release special "collections" (Far Side is known for this) containing the comics such as: Larger combination volumes and calendars. Now, as with everything, there are some pretty die-hard obsessed fans (the comic "Dilbert" is insanely popular with office workers, "Cathy" is popular with women, "Garfield" and "Peanuts"(Charlie Brown, Snoopy) have actually become major cultural icons for the US (Garfield car window hanger things and snoopy...EVERYTHING) and these comics even have spots at Comic conventions (albeit not nearly as big as the anime/manga and american "standard" comics...or star trek/wars for that matter...the fans simply don't NEED to go to conventions all the time) |

Akamatsu Ken's Magister Negima has improved, especially in the area of magic/action. Negima seems to be comparatively better than his previous works (i.e. disclaimer: I have not seen any of his dojins and I have no intention to do so).
It is fast paced, action-packed, (with plot/themes in the arcs) and there are surprises in store for those who keeps up with the progress of the story. Ecchi-ness, fan services are part of Japanese culture (it seems). However, as long as you do not think too deepy into these aspects (if you find it disturbing), Negima is entertaining. As a matter of fact, (personally speaking) the latest chapters of Negima has shown that Akamatsu has improved on the story/plot/theme as the manga progresses. |

Grabbed the first English volume(First US batch in the store since it was still in shrinkwrap) the other day. Definitely worth the read. XD Dammit, what I wouldn't give to be in his position though...except for the magic portion. Sneezing is hazardous for your health. :P

they DIDN'T edit Negima, however...as a precaution they covered it in shrinkwrap
i had the train scene from the Comic Party Omake episode 1 running through my head about "plas-books" when i opened my box and saw the no-plastic-cover XXXholic and Tsubasa and a plastic-covered Negima...i looked at the back: Tsubasa and XXXholic are rated 13+, Negima is rated 16+ and wrapped in plastic -_- |
