Yami: “Please, eat me too”.
From Shonen Jump.
In something of a departure from the usual demographic, one of the latest Nendoroids due is to be Yako Katsuragi of popular supernatural detective franchise 魔人探偵 / Majin Tantei.
A collection of some of the most risqué shonen manga published over the years, with the emphasis on classic (or perhaps merely old) titles; after viewing these you may wonder what all the fuss about recent shonen manga is about, though I dare say they are still a step back from what we’ve seen in shoujo manga…
Popular, or apparently not so popular, ero-tentacle manga To Love-Ru only recently concluded its negatively received anime adaptation, but now it looks as though the manga too will be concluding shortly, or rather, cancelled.
As we saw before, shoujo manga seem to escape all censorship and are packed full of scenes able to put even full on ero-manga to shame. Shonen manga, by comparison, are tame, heavily censored things, or are they?
After the revelations concerning just how little is left to the imagination in the manga edition of To Love-Ru, it should come as no surprise to you to hear that the latest chapter, 113, features not only the inevitable summer swimwear but even girls pictured in unladylike deportment, which you can see below.
To Love-Ru fans may leave their imagination at the door; it is no longer necessary. An enterprising ero-analyst has subjected To Love-Ru to close scrutiny, dissecting each panel and so bringing to light the fact that even in the serialised edition, the manga’s censorship is far less complete than previously thought; far more than mere nipples, airbrushed or no, is in fact plainly discernable…
Before you all rush off to seek out a copy, the sections concerned are reproduced for your inspection below:
Interesting comparison of the censorship of serialised versus compilations of ToLOVEる/To Love-Ru here – it seems quite heavy handed, but this is Shonen Jump so I suppose it is understandable. What of the TV versus DVD versions of the anime, I wonder? Personally, I think I prefer seinen manga, of either variety, where this sort of thing is not an issue.
