    Someone as in like, one person. Kodomo no Jikan isn't a cultural phenomenon or some shit. No one will care about it in the future.

    A few people remembering it wouldn't be enough to persuade a company to license it, though.

  3. Does anyone think that maybe KoJikan could be more acceptable at large if the information was disseminated that the mangaka is a woman?

    Yes but not by much, as it is not targeting women. And even though, that still wouldn't be acceptable enough.

    That might change some feminazis' opinions, but it won't change the opinions of any religious moralfags. Kojika will always be child porn in their eyes, regardless of the mangaka's gender.

  6. I can't find the link, but I remember reading that Kaworu Watashiya was honestly surprised upon learning that her manga's American publication plans fell through. I believe that she said something to the effect of "This just goes to show the huge cultural difference between Japan and America. It's too bad."

    ...I'm thinking that Ms. Watashiya doesn't get out much. If KoJikan were exposed to average Japanese, their reaction might not be too dissimilar to Westerners'.

    >Religious moralfags
    >Japan

    I'm pretty sure that's less then 2% of the population as the majority 96% is atheist, Buddhist, or Shinto or both. Shinto has no moral code. It's closer to the old Greek religions. It borrows any karmic stance from being frequently syncretic with Buddhism. Keep in mind not all Shinto are Buddhist, but most are.
    Christianity and Islam make up less then one percent of the populace. Most of the Christian population died when Nagasaki was bombed as it was the only place with a sizable non-foreign Christian populace. Even then there wasn't many.

    This moralfaggotry comes from their own fear of damage to children not religious obligation.

    Women can be freaks too. The author is a terrible person for writing the story regardless of gender, race or religion.

    We were talking about America, not Japan (at least, that was what I assumed).

  12. I don't think religion plays too much of a role in moral outrage. Most Westerners, whether devout or not, would be uncomfortable with having the premise and details of KoJikan explained to them. East Asians, too.
