To Love-Ru author Yabuki Kentaro and top ero-doujinshika Ishikei, both masters of the art of ero-manga, have apparently become friends and seem to have been discussing “high level ero-works” together, much to the excitement of fans.
Yabuki Kentaro’s recent missive:
“I got to know Ishikei-sensei and we became friends, and soon we were able to discuss some high level erotic work together. Hot stuff!”
Ishikei in particular has long been turning out To Love-Ru art, including some with official status, and the works of both Yabuki and Ishikei seem to possess some intriguing stylistic similarities:
Fans of each are already salivating over the prospects for some kind of collaboration between the two, or at the very least some cross pollination of artistic talents…
I mean, I'm fine with it, as long as they don't touch TLR in any way.
Sure, I fapped to Ishikei's works a lot, including all his TLR stuff, but it was unofficial, if they officially turn it into some ero fuckfest then I will no longer be able to enjoy it they way I did, because I'll know that the ... uhh, innocence, so to speak, of TLR is lost.
I don't think that any sort of collaboration between them would affect To Love Ru itself. I think that the series would remain intact.
Instead doujins, artbooks, and things like that could possibly achieve some sort of "officially approved" status, simply because the mangaka himself is taking part in it as well. They still wouldn't affect the main series itself because they wouldn't count as having actually happened within the story, per se. They'd just be "alternate realities" or something to that affect.
Really, it'd be no different from anyother doujin out there -- including Ishikei's. Just some other story where instead of a bunch of teasing, there is actual fucking going on. The only real difference is that, like I said before, the mangaka is helping him in these side-projects.
At least, that is what I see coming out of it.
I could be wrong. Only time will tell.
I don't know, if they collaborate on any sort of ero work concerning TLR, any story included in it will have to have TLR's author's approval, which renders your "it'd be no different from anyother doujin out there" argument invalid, simply because, with doujins, authors of source material aren't involved in their creation.
That being said, any Kentaro-approved ero-whatever will have the "more than just fanwork" status and be more connected to the main series than doujins.
Now, if it's just exposure of private parts and stuff, I don't really mind, since that's what already happens in the series. Intercourse doesn't happen, if they "make it official" by including it in Kentaro-approved creation... well... I don't know. I'd be annoyed.
They could probably get away with somehting like Momo daydreaming about lewd stuff or something, but nothing happening "for real" should be in it, in my opinion.
But rather than it _literally_ being "no different from any other doujin out there", I meant more along the lines of "I wouldn't view it as being any different". To me, it'd still leave TLR intact, but would be some side project like I mentioned earlier.
And yes, it would naturally still be closer to the series than any other doujin material out there, simply because it _would_ be Kentaro-approved. But, at the same time, they could still maintain a distinction of sorts between the series and the side-project if they so desired. Something like a warning on the front in bold, red letters saying, "THIS ISN'T CONNECTED TO THE MAIN TLR SERIES IN ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM. IT'S JUST SOME CREATIVE IMAGINATION" would do the job nicely, methinks. Then again, that's just my view on it.
Still, none of it is worth getting upset about.
In my personal opinion, any sort of "kentaro-approved ero-whatever" wouldn't be all that bad. They're two great artists that I wouldn't mind seeing working on a project together -- TLR-related or not.
It doesn't change the fact, though, that all of this is just baseless speculation at this point. He didn't even mention if the ero-works in question would have anything to do with TLR. They're not bound by some law that dictates they main only work on TLR projects and that's it. They're free to draw whatever they want. Someone somewhere is still guaranteed to get off on it.
And if it does have something to do with TLR, great. If it doesn't, oh well. Still great.
For the same reason we do NOT want to see a couple come together in a favorite TV show when the entire show has been based on them almost coming together. It removes whatever tension is there, makes it 'official' jumps the shark. Ends the story.
@Chen - Yes, I'd be annoyed. It wouldn't bother me if TLR was officially a "sex strongly implied" kind of manga. It's not. Not at all.
Why do I even bother explaining, it's not like you'd even try to understand. It's like you completely ignored every word I said except of "I'd be annoyed if anyone had sex" and assumed something's wrong with me.
Fuck you.
Chen, most modern anime fans like yourself are the reason why anime is just mediocre, boring, unkempt and cliche moe bullshit. You just keep buying the crap.

Hopefully you watched some classics from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s? If not then don't lump me together with these "modern anime fans". 'kay thx.
I loathe slice-of-life-moe-bullshit, y'know. And I don't like stories that don't ever get anywhere. What's the problem with moving on? Let the characters have sex and then let them marry and have some children or break up or whatever. Just move on and don't keep the goddamn status quo forever and ever and ever and ever.
Don't go batshit crazy over some waifu xD
Let the fucking story progress. (Strongly implying there is a story to begin with. If there isn't, that's fine too if the ecchi stuff compensates for it.)

Yes, you are something similar to cancer. Congratulations, you're part of the problem. The thing with stories is... they need to end. They are neither replacements for your life nor are they accompanying you our entire life. They're stories. Nothing more.

"Yes, I'd be annoyed. It wouldn't bother me if TLR was officially a "sex strongly implied" kind of manga. It's not. Not at all. "
What's the problem with stories growing over the time? How about Satoshi from Pocket Monsters actually getting older and going on dates? But no such luck. Status quo is god. And I say fuck that.
"Why do I even bother explaining, it's not like you'd even try to understand. It's like you completely ignored every word I said except of "I'd be annoyed if anyone had sex" and assumed something's wrong with me.
Fuck you."
Because it's fun to argue on sankom. You don't have to pretend to be nice here. Maybe you now understand, that I didn't ignored what you wrote, but meant everything of that included in my "fuck you".
I guess there were signs, but I was totally not prepared for this. If these two fuse, it will mean the grand obliteration of Falos' phallus. And probably a kickass transformation sequence.
Holy shit, wait so the official artist does hardcore H parody version too? Or am I missing something. I couldn't tell the difference from the original in these particular doujins, man that's fucking hot... Trouble girls are awesome.
Get alive.
People in the manga / anime industry don't earn much money.
Don't like Porn? Don't watch it!
Besmirch? Porn is only "dirty" for hyporcrits and... More
What the heck is up with Sankaku's background?
Yes oh god yes! Looks like hes been teaming up with Funi a bit in ads atleast.
Yeah I saw it was [C] and I was like "Ooh! This is my jam!"
I like the dark colours though. Nice alternative to orange.
I don't know what you mean.. everythings white. Do I need to praise my adblocking software?
When I clicked on the right side link. The anime title changed to "Blood-C". lol
Nice. maybe a more hentai version of to love ru anime will unveil.
the time has come...
fab! fab! fab! fab! fab! fab! fab! fab! fab! fab! fab! fab! fab! fab! fab! fab! fab! fab! fab! fab!
The letters p, q, b and d are amazing.
Your fap is a sin and we must ERASE YOUR SOUL for it!
I AM SORRY BUT DIE!tt43t34
he said fab! and not fap!
can't you read?
sry,while the right hand is busy.
it cant help.
The ONLY thing that can and will come out of this is restricting LOLI works even more, or completely ban them.
We shall ban them indeed!
Shit. It's having a twin GN Drive but releases ero instead.
ERO^2
You should help the poor instead moron!
NO!!! GOD NO!

Have you seeked psychiatric help?

You'd be annoyed if the characters in your manga actually fuck each other? Dude, what's wrong with you?

You guys are the reason most anime and manga are mediocre shit (like TLR). FUCK YOU.

Thanks for input.
My boner is not ready.

Holy shit, this is some incredible news! Would the world even be able to handle this divine level of ero from these two?! Only time will tell....
I can only say this:
My dick and right hand are ready.
Die Satanic supporter!

You're too young and stupid to know the difference.

Holy shit, wait so the official artist does hardcore H parody version too? Or am I missing something. I couldn't tell the difference from the original in these particular doujins, man that's fucking hot... Trouble girls are awesome.
