Dat Clare's neck.
She must have awaken partially.
Was thinking "What the..." at that one also.
can't unsee x.X
Indirect "fuck you" to Ishihara lol
badge of freedom (of speech) for kentaro, ftw. now he can continue with tentacle rape and groping action, not that ishihara scared him in the least
All this disgusting material is corrupting our youth, destroying what it means to be an upstanding human being. They would never do something like spend huge sums of money at a charity auction helping thousands in need.
As we would expect, I'm glad to see Himura Kenshin lending a hand in troubled times.
Well done Watsuki-san!
A Great Warrior must have a good heart, and Himura Kensington truly lives up to his name of "Sword-Heart."
A little bit random question here.. but who's that gothloli chick above Kenshin..?
that girl is from EMBALMING: THE ANOTHER TALE OF FRANKENSTEIN
Kenshin looks more he's like demanding money from you. "Hand over all your money now or I'll beat the crap out of you"
Just look at the two characters at the back backing him up with threatening faces and making fists. That's extending a hand? Haha! Take off those fanboy goggles.
The script say Daijoubu! Chikara mo omui mo kanarazu todoku!!
Transliterated it says "All right! With strength and mind we'll get there!!"
Don't see how that's looking for anything. It's a statement of commitment and resolve.
Better look at taking your own blinders off dude!
See even ecchi manga can be very helpful towards relief.
It is all about good will, which I think those mangaka have in greater abundance than a certain Japanese unisef wannabee
yea that is a nice statement
I see what you did there.
Yabuki as an ecchi mangaka did a better job in helping the victims more than Ishihara did. Reminds me of that Pakistan(iirc) model who actually did more charity than those religious fatass leaders in her country.
Ecchi manga very handy at time like these.
Another interesting fact I guess is that at the same time, Ishihara must be outraged that more people supports To Love-Ru mangaka instead of himself.
surprised that d gray man is so high
probably the yaoi fan girls
I thought Hiroyuki Asada's one was really cool.
Totally. LOVE how there's the tradmark dark-blue background to it too. So beautiful!
my favourites are 1, 5 and 10
this just proves that people support his nonviolent protest of the erotic way to express "fuck you Ishihara"
Anyone know what happened to Clamp donation picture of Kinomoto Sakura??? i somehow saw that picture in niconico top video, and lasted for quite a long time...
yet it didnt make into the top10 donation list? =/
I'm swooning over that Tegami Batchi one. Looks like a museum piece...
Great to see Gyagu Manga Biyori and D Grayman one too.
Nice to see Gun Blaze West there.
Too bad the series got cancelled.
LOL, I didn't immediately recognise lala with her clothes on.
And all Ishithara donate was "Divine retribution"
LOVE Lala's awesome pic!
I thought you'd add Ikeda's elongated neck of Moka.
clareeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! So sexy~
That might be the most beautiful depiction of Lala I've seen to date. Not surprising it got top bidding.
Ishihara must feel pretty silly after saying that three of these mangaka were holding the nation back
which 3?
i know to love ru, but what others?
Soft Lala; NO WONDER IT'S WORTH $15,000.
Manga-ka aren't so worthless after all.
Yabuki Kentaro is awesome.. and the reason why he is so popular is because of the naughty, funny, adult oriented type themes in his Manga.. and to think Ishihara would want to stop such a creative talent who wants to help those in need.. Ohh wait, Ishihara believes it was devine punishment.
*Facepalm*
Damn it, I was looking for a Yabuki Kentaro's one...
Not really surprise of his ranking...
Obata Takeshi's ex-assistants got top places.
The Fujiko Fujio illustration...
isnt that abit of a rip off,
consider both author have deceased?
Ah, it's actually the pen-name of the studio that has penned the Doraemon manga for the last 40 years: hence although the man who started the studio has in fac gone to heaven, his ever evolving team is still very much alive.
hattori is created by Fujiko fujio A
n he's alive
guess at Lala´s booth there was a lot of "Trouble"...
Hiromu Arakawa T_T
Suck it, Ishihara!
if it was an angel densetsu image instead of claymore, i would have had to get in on that action.
If there were Oh Great! & Masakazu Katsura arts, they would of totally made more money. I would totally bid for those arts
