South Korean police say they are investigating 60 people for distributing and translating ero-manga, quoting the ringleader as saying he did it because “all women hate me.”
According to Inchon cyber-crime investigators, the 19-year-old founder of a site concerned with distributing Korean language translations of over 1,500 “obscene” Japanese manga via torrent recruited the assistance of some 36 editors and translators.
Most of the distributors are said to be university students, and police also apparently identified a further 23 students who merely downloaded or shared the material.
Police are keen to paint the suspects as sad misanthropes who did it out of an unwholesome inability to attract 3D women, quoting one as saying “I was unpopular with girls in school, so I developed a sense of inferiority and the belief that ‘all women hate me’.”
The police say as many as 40-50 vile perverts may have downloaded the materials they distributed, and say they intend to widen their investigations further in the hopes of catching them.
They also report that unlike the wholesome obscenity seen in pornographic movies, “compared to the obscenity seen in movies that of manga knows no bounds, and a lot of the material depicted exceedingly perverted sexual activity,” including such unbelievable deviance as young men engaged in sexual activity.
Unlike the relatively liberal if reliably corrupt censorship regime in Japan, South Korea strives to protect its people both from the evils of sex via censorship of pornography and undesirable sites, and from specifically Japanese corruption as well with a variety of restrictions on Japanese media, evidently making ero-manga a rather easy target – not least with vilifying all things Japanese already being something of a national obsession.

Why can't they leave our ero alone and work on dealing real problems like drug cartels, brothels, and dangerous cults? Oh right, because most of the people in power are in them; silly me.
We need to buy an old oil rig and make a nation of our own! For the name I recommend Lolitannia! ...no wait, a scanlation group already has that...uhhh...
Loliburg?

Might as well rename the US to Outer Heaven, because they sure like perpetuating war.
03:12 Might as well rename you a little bitch for moaning about US again.
LOL little fucker
bookmarked
As soon as you did form your own country, the people that really run the world would have certain governments declare that it's a terrorist haven, and send Predator drones armed with hellfire missiles, to pretty much kill all the unwanted, freedom loving "terrorists" that lived peacefully there.
Lolitania? It has a nice ring to it.
Unfortunately, a country populated by fanboys fapping to cartoon characters will die out after one generation. Didn't think of that, did you?
Watch out, we got a "heavy" girl right here
Canada.
Untrue. Canada is among of the first country to arrest people who have ero-manga in their laptops that enter their borders.
Yeah, too bad it's not 70's anymore...

Fight back now or the New World Order will be more than just a conspiracy theory.
HENTAI WORLD ORDER!
Sounds like Taylor's "revolution".
it's evolution baby.
What makes you think that we're just a theory, Mundani?
It's already not conspiracy, but fact.
It's time to round up the so called moralists and launch then all into the sun.
That's why I live in Russia.
in soviet russia, you can watch hentai without censorship.
God, I love Russia.
Why do you love Russia when you were talking about Soviet Russia? One of those two doesn't exist anymore. Guess which one.
Australia also has shitty anti-pornography laws, I read... = POS
Africa and South America don't really have pornography = POS
It begins... I honestly hope this doesn't spread to America.
It came from the west though
It only moved out from the west because they couldn't hold any ground at west.
Feminists has asked for porn ban time after time and they always get bitchslapped by the 1st amendment. Which's why they moved onto governments abroad that are more bullieable.
feminists of yesterday were cool and fought for equal rights against impossible odds.
Feminists today are stupid spoiled bitches who think they should have things their way or not at all.
I think they should be forced to live in a Islamic nation like Dubai for a few months or years so they can appreciate what they have.
People love to hop on the "I'm a victim, pay me compensation" justification bandwagon.
maybe they think of themselves as diamonds in a rough beeing treated like shit?
It isn't really the 1st amendment that has stopped censorship of pornography. It is because the courts cannot decide on a definition of what is pornographic. What one person might consider beautiful and stimulating, another might think of it as dirty and disgusting. Whose version is the correct one? Nobody knows.
I would like to ship all the self-privilege feminist bitches abroad to 3rd world muslim countries. Then they can know the true meaning of gender-oppression!
Instead these fat assholic cows cry about how the world isn't rolling around their whirl and whim, as they sip their coffee and wave about their college degree. Ladies and gents, the feminist are more than fine and are not oppressed.
They are simply showing temper-tantrums like the rest of spoiled American overprivilaged females. While they design the entire female race as some goddess-statues idol.
Because America is afraid of the D.
They should be. Drew Brees will kick all of their asses in the coming season. Go Saints! LOL
That's why people if you're doing something that majority considers as a crime, always mask your ID (IP) in many layers
Doesn't South Korean law nowadays require its citizens to use real ID online? How would they be able to mask that?
I'm admittedly not good at internet, so enlighten me.
I think that law was struct down two years ago
oh come on, they are just sick of plastic 3D girls and want some 2D action.
i'll agree to that,the majority of 3D women in Korea are made of plastic nowadays.
ROFL , so true yet so sad
It's because they want men to spend their lives being tied down paying for women and chidlren. They don't like anyone who doesn't conform to that system.
I mean, you know it's all about finance and economics when the government gets involved.
I'd be glad to spend my life tied down in a job paying for the support of a woman and children.
Just so long as they act like a proper domestic housewife and acknowledge that this whole gender equality business isn't going to fly in a one income family.
You can't have the cake, and eat it too ladies. Work for your keep, or listen to the one who supports you.
Fuck you.
Actually, even though a but harsh, I agree with anon a bit.
And that is exactly the problem that some people have with media like games or manga that sexualize women.
They don't want to let men enjoy made up drawings and pixels, they want them to go for the real thing.
Envy is powerful thing, women have a lot of envy for other prettier women.
2D drives them insane, they know they will never look that good so they want to destroy it.
Go to a checkout line in a store. Look at all the women's magazines = all full of pictures of celebs or supermodels, while men's magazines feature cars, women and gadgets. Different markets. Since games, manga and comics are mostly produced for men who buy them, they have more depictions of women men enjoy.
I don't really care who enjoys what. I rather have men and females alike enjoying their toons and whatever.
Better for them to enjoy pixels, than attempts of rape and murder of real females. The 2D world has hurt no one. It's just the corrupt right-wingist who are doing this by getting into people's personal business of their sexual turn-ons in cartoon shows. LOL.
CARTOONS. I guess real life PROSTITUTION and rape is the best thing, since America, South Korea, and now Japan don't want folks to get off to illustrated magazines of fake females.
England and Sweden don't want folks to get off to illustrations of real OR fake females.
