Some American newspapers have announced plans to print Japanese manga in their comic sections in an effort to attract younger readers. Who would have thought that tentacle-rape and lolita stuff appealed to the kids?

Tentacle-rape in US newspapers? I thought that day would never come. ;)

But since the article doesn't say anything like that, I guess you were probably joking. But it's good to see, that you are trying to give mangas a better image. ;)

The tentacles -- of an alien or demon or whatever -- do the raping. They don't get raped. It's some seriously sick shite.

I think you're confused here. Manga is an artform that covers a wide variety of genres and plots. Pornography is merely one form of manga and not even the main form. Indeed, many manga actually have quite sophisticated storylines and other literary characteristics that would put the vast bulk of comics to shame.

In addition, tentacle rape isn't even the only form of hentai. Much of it is ordinary sex, though much of it is also truly horrific, by our standards at least. I won't go into it since it really is truly fucked up in places.

It's like saying all movies are hard core porn.

Hentai manga are not meant for kids, and not sold to kids in Japan.

No one makes better cartoons than the US. I know a lot of US animation is done over there, but its still US created and style.

The Japanese cartoons give me the creeps. Pokemon and all that seem to have a hypnotic power over children. I was always suspect and then , years ago, saw a report of convulsions/siezures of some type in children across Japan after watching a morning cartoon.

there is more too this. an evil plot, no doubt.

Well, just keep in mind that not all manga is like that. It would be like claiming all opera consists of valkyries killing Jews because Wagner wrote operas about them and was an anti-semite.

Yes, though, I know how you feel. There is something not right with a nation where people regularly buy manga depicting pædophilic rape.

The ones I was referring to were the Pokemon & similar cartoons.

The under-age and tenticle stuff-I dont really understand the attraction- its disturbingly perverse. It really concerns me.

But there may be a 38 yr old Japanese guy under the impression that we all love professional wrestling.

Thats what I meant. I'm remotely interested in NASCAR, I understand why people are interested in it. I dont know how you could pay attention to an entire race.

Its not based in perverse victimization though. Interest in rape, even in a cartoon, is worrisome. As is the under age and school girl depictions.

I think of this type of thing when I hear ignorami making general observations about violence in Amercian society.

Any cartoons that don't feature woodpeckers attacking walruses, coyotes chasing road runners, cats chasing mice, or Elmer Fudds chasing rabbits are inferior cartoons, with the possible exception of cartoons featuring spinach-addicted, violent sailors.

I'm sure somebody has already pointed out to you the difference between hentai pornography and manga comics. There are wester-style animated pornos too, but you don't seem to be advocating that we ban all comics from the funny pages.

Manga is just the japanese term for comics/(non animated) cartoons.

But some attach a certain style to it, in which case anything of that style is manga. And others would demand it's made by japanese artists.

Frankly, I'd say, "what's in a name". I'll like it for what it is and not for what it's called.
