IF Act-Age gets axed, would that open up shueisha to a lawsuit since they allow watsuki to keep serializing after being proven to be a pedophile but wouldn't give the aa guy the same chance?
IF Act-Age gets axed...
if he managed to get away with it the first time I don't think much will change
Being a pedophile doesn't keep you from serializing anything. Breaking the Law does and Watsuki's crimes were fairly minor.
>keep serializing after being proven to be a pedophile
If being a pedophile prevented you from making manga, there would be far less manga in general.
>Ruruoni Kenshin was created by a pedo
Wait what? Just how many pedos work at Jump?
Didn't he get fucked by a retroactively applied law on CP material?
law was enacted in 2013, he had the child porn in 2017, 4 years is more than enough time to clean it up
But he bought - acquired it before the law was enacted.
Will you disgusting mentally ill anglos please stop forcing your twisted morality onto Japan? They're the last uncucked first world country and I'd like to keep it that way.
Why are you comparing two cases that are completely different in every way? Are you a drooling retard or is it some shitty attempt at trolling?
Fuck westerners for forcing their useless laws in Japan. Banning the possession of CP doesn't solve any problem.
>Not wanting people to take advantage of under age kids
>Twisted morality
You sure you aren't the mentally ill one?
kek imagine being this retarded
And had nearly half a decade to get rid of it. Fucker held on to CDs he kept in his office. Not surprising, cheap cunt wont' even buy new underwear.
But he didn't take advantage of kids.
>t. burgerfags with orientalism boner
Simply being a pedo is not a crime that you can arrest someone for. Watsuki had CP shortly after they changed the laws, Matsuki actually sexually assaulted a child, ergo Matsuki committed a far more serious crime.
nah, at worst they would probably take ruroken from streaming platforms in america
fortunately, I don't think ruroken is part of the ongoing anime/manga meta in the us enough for online activists to give a damn
>would that open up shueisha to a lawsuit since they allow watsuki to keep serializing
No, why would that open them to a lawsuit? WSJ is allowed to cancel whatever they want, given appropriate notice.
Anglos need to get their dicks hard somehow by criticizing a civilized country because all the children in their country are getting gangraped by Mohammed and they refuse to do anything about that.
he has good taste
they can axe a manga for any reason
How many mangaka do they have
iirc the Hokkaido arc was put on hold until Watsuki resolved his legal troubles
also, didn't Toriko got axed for similar circumstances?
Realistically, what happens if Oda is accused of (and admits to) sexually assaulting a preteen? Is it jumpocalypse?
Watsuki owned reference material of young girls that used to be considered legal, but was changed in the lead up to the 2020 Olympics; due to pressure from Imperialist organizations like UNICEF and the United Nations. It was never actually proven he owned actual child porn, just formerly legal materials that he had refused to turn over. He did however squeal in other artists who had confided to him that owned similar or worse material in their possessions. This is part of why he was mostly just assessed fines, after the material was seized.
doesn't Shueisha own the publishing rights to One Piece? If so, I'm pretty sure they could milk the franchise a bit more without Oda.
nice mental gymnastic there
Kenshin guys crimes were significantly more minor
>gets caught possessing CP
>the law was newly enacted so he gets a slap on the wrist and only has to pay a fine
>gets to go back to work and write more manga
>most Japanese people get over it quickly and stop caring since they're able to separate art from artist and still enjoy Watsuki's work
>meanwhile faggots in America are still seething and saying he deserved worse yet turn a blind eye to Hollywood, an entire industry that's guilty of protecting powerful entertainment execs that are guilty of molesting and raping women and underaged girls
Watsuki bashing posts are such cringe now. It's over. He paid the fine. Get over it.
Fucking this. Goddamn burgers should start developing bleeding age holograms because the whole population are masters of projecting
I hope burgerland fucking collapses
They do say the more laws they have against something, the bigger the problem. Surely there has to be a point where they realize that more laws aren't the solution.
I wanted him to start a new career by drawing for Comic LO.
