so we have an explanation for his recent works
Oh well, he already had his success, so i guess he can dive into marriage. Being a mangaka and married at the same time is always a very tricky stunt to pull.
I understand there is a picture of her because she's an actress but where is he? Isn't there a photo or whatnot of the new couple?
GTO was awesome, congratulations to him.
damn shes very pretty on her profile pic on her blog O_O
lucky sob...
That's Yui Kanzaki from Ryuki, right? Lucky mangaka...
holy fuck she looks fucking old
holy fuck its an unflattering shot! *smh*
seriously, click her blog and she looks like shes 27
congrats though the age difference is too steep. still hope they have a happy and good life :D
congratz....
Hope the couple good luck and the kid awesomeness from his 'rents are all we need to do here....

My first thought:
"That Man finally fulfilled his dream of marrying a much younger woman..."
Onizuka would be proud.
Indeed, Onizuka would be proud.
+1
that's ryu-ryu-ryu-ryuki's girl!
Forget the marriage, that is a badass Onizuka poster she's holding.
didn't decently cute girls did this too
sounds like some random evil sucks the mangaka's money earning from GTO.
she's going to learn a lot, lol
German Suplex?
Looks like his Kamen Teacher research has gone awry.
They are both women right ? Give remake of GTO with more EPISODES !
mangaka 43 married a girl 27 is acceptable
neither booth of them are lolies
i think only the girl is to old for him :p
Huh, I must have missed whatever strange reference makes this interesting. Anyone enlighten me?
Kamen Rider + GTO = I sense profit...!
Now we need a crossover, Kamen Rider Onizuka or is it Great Teacher Rider?
Kekko Kamen would be perfect for the two of them. :3
Kamen Teacher
Great Rider Onizuka
I see what you did there.
~obro "Camein Teacher"
fixed
Kamen Raido: Great Teacher Form Onizuka!
...Sounds like Decade changing into some Hibiki form... lol
Fujisawa-sensei did that already. See 'Kamen Teacher'.
"...expecting a child (one of the leading causes of weddings in Japan)"
Oh you...
I rolf'ed hard from that Krazed comment.
so u are "Roll On Laughing Floor"?
= win
And then I failed epically when I noticed I missplaced the "l" and "f" in rofl. *sigh*
I surely would have guessed he'd go for a highschool girl. Oh wait, he became a mangaka, not a teacher.
Maybe he did, Ayano was the same age as the girls in Onizuka's class when the manga came out in 1997.
Maybe they met during investigation for the manga at her school and kept it secret till now. :3
Didn't that one girl with the large oppai in GTO become an actress too?
Coincidence? Or did he insert some reality? ^_^
Major brownie points for noticing that,dear sir :3
But I thought the worlds scientists declared that
"First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes the baby in the baby carriage"
The baby is still coming after the marriage
But you forgot the K-i-s-s-i-n-g. Maybe they did more than mouth kissing and went ahead to another lower-parts kissing.
Not cientists: catholic religion.
I like the work the catholic church did on the field astronomy in the 1500's.
Like suppressing Copernicus and Galilei?
The catholic church is probably the greatest destroyer of knowledge in the history of mankind.
Y-You mean The Flintstones WASN'T a documentary?! o.0
I don't know what's real anymore! ;_;
I need to seriously rethink everthing I've been told. >_>
In Japan, it's a punched hole in the condom = TRAP WEDDING. Then maybe love. Maybe. Crushing Japanese sense of responsibility for the male first though.
Japanese girls don't have to punch a hole in a condom. Japanese dudes are so obsessed with Nakadashi and unprotected sex that they're begging girls to do it.
Artifact, you're putting the wrong spin on these weddings. They probably do love each other, they probably already do live together. Japanese weddings are ridiculously expensive. They were probably just putting it off.
He's 43, she's 27, both are not the youngest. The biological clock is ticking, this just might be a reason as well. Japanese women >25 years start getting desperate, and she could fit that bill.
Alas I could be wrong and he could do way worse than a wive 16 years younger, so gratz to the couple.
Sperm is good, but women's eggs quality decline as they get older...
Actually sperm also declines, the difference is that men can keep porking others because their balls effectively continuously produce sperm (defects not withstanding). The only thing that declines for a woman is her number of eggs. The real risk is miscarriage, which increases with age and number of births.
"she's 27, both are not the youngest"
fuck you man, I'm 30 and my ovaries can beat up your sperm any time
literary
miscarragies as anon said need special care as one grows older but I guess it can happen at any age.

Your avatar and comment is just pure lol.
SO I guess Japanese have been right all along by going for the lolis. They will lay more eggs...
Shotgun Weddings, the trap you set yourself FOR yourself.
Bakuman can come true~~
I think too, because he is a mangaka. I don't think an actress need to trap a mangaka this way. XD
True, but look at the character he drew. A 20something virgin with a thing for schoolgirl upskirt peeking.
If his manga's anything to go by, I'm not filled with confidence.
I agree. They might actually love each other. Love is a crazy thing like that, just happens. Jus Sayin'.
Why is everyone jumping to conclusions. Nobody's even assuming they might actually love each other? I mean, the guy's 43, it's not likely he'd still be novice in those things.
Well, gratz to the newlywed. Guess I'm the first to say that.
