How Sci-Fi novel covers look different in the West and Japan.

aohige · 2012-01-15, 13:50

^That is neither a news nor is it accurate.

Like the blogger comments, majority of western Sci-fi and fantasy translated novels have much more conservative artwork.

Snakes on a Plane? No, Japanese Maids on a Train!

Enough is enough! I have had it with these mother*bleep* maids on this mother*bleep* train! Everybody strap in! I'll about to open a Butler Cafe.

I guess I was in a hurry.

Plus, you could do something like "Irenicus, double facepalming Irenicus"

Make sure to include the signage "No males or fujoshis or innocent librarians allowed".

Banning fujoshi from a butler cafe seems to a rather poor business choice to me.

Precisely. The cafe itself is a breeding ground for ideaologies that will destroy the human race. To protect innocent young girls from being corrupted by netherworldly powers, such establishments must not stand!

Besides, I doubt such cafes would be successful since most girls are smart enough ro reject the impure notions of BL fandom.

Would YOU pay to visit Hitler's hideout? Yes, I of course understand the "never let this happen again" educational value of preserving Auschwitz and other Nazi-related sites, but I'm not completely convinced of the value of restoring and charging admission to Hitler's bunker, or promoting it as a must-see attraction. For one thing, obviously the Germans are concerned with paying too much tribute to Hitler-related sites, lest they attract neo-Nazis. Maybe just a few informational plaques would suffice.

And yes, I know Poland has a particularly tragic history, but one wonders if their tourism board could find some more positive attractions to promote. It does have a lot more to offer than Auschwitz and Nazi relics (please, PLEASE don't take that sentence the wrong way).
