Mature content manga removal

[blaze2142]

Thankfully the manga I read are clean

Punctuation would have made the OP a hell of a lot easier to understand when I read it.

So manga is being taken off of a few sites, and people think that means it's gone entirely? There's plenty of sites that still have everything I've seen taken away from Onemanga over time. Most of the time, they have more accurate translations, and in some cases, higher quality scans anyway.

I apologize for my poor punctuation But that's the UK's public school system at work for you.

And yes you can find whatever you want on the net if you look hard enough but it's convenient having all your favorites in one place doesn't it?

That applies to what I said too. The other places still have all of those, plus stuff that Onemanga has never had, all in one giant site. OM is tiny compared to some of the better sites out there, even though there aren't a ton that could fit into that description. Plus, there's also the RAWs and so on also available with the fan translation scans on the same site.

I'm not trying to be rude (I know alot of the time my posts can sound like I am), but Onemanga loosing a few things is really insignificant if you look around and stumble upon the huge places, even with the huge list OM has.

Don't suppose you could an example of on of these places?

@ Dragon
I can't say exactly what has been taken down but most anything with a mature label a few series I know for certain have been taken down are:
Kodomo no Jikan
Dance in the Vampire Bund
Elfen Lied

What you say!? [http://www.nooooooooooooooo.com/]

Oh Kodomo no Jikan, how I loved you so. Good night sweet princess.

adsense has very clear ToS. You breach it, they kick you out. This isn't censorship, this is people breaking the rules that they agreed to when signing up for a service.

Why are people ignoring this? Google has a ToS, they breached it. It was overblown by an idiot into "supporting child pornography," but it was still against their rules, so it's entirely in their right to tell them to remove the ToS-breaching content or stop allowing them to use Adsense.

 

[moretimethansense]

Noooooooooo!
Dance in the Vampire Bund was good!

Yeah I noticed. >.>

I was right in the middle of one too.

May I ask which one?

It was Umi no Misaki for me.

Oh for the love of... they got rid of that one, too?
Dammit!

Yeah but odds are on that one'll be put back up, I you'd have to totally insane to think that qualified as porn right?...right?

 

[The Great Zegrool]

Wow, this... this sucks.

This isn't about anime or manga, this is about censorship 'for the children'. I oppose censorship in any form because I believe everyone is entitled to artistic expression however they want.

If the parents don't want their fucking brats to watch hardcore porn, then they shouldn't let them go on those sites. If you think your kids can't handle something, you fucking supervise them.

It's not even porn it's manga that may have some sexually explicit scenes just like any number of serious(or less serious) novels and movies.
If those behind this actually saw MY porn I think their heads would explode

I am kind of worried people actually want to read about that kind of stuff, of course I am just going off that article.

Just can't grasp why somebody would want to read "about a 3rd grader whose stepfather wants to marry her but she wants to be with her teacher (child nudity, masturbation, molestation in both manga & anime).", I have never read/watched any anime/manga (actually does pokemon count? DBZ?) but I certainly wouldn't start there.

Just seems in very bad taste to even associate kids with sex.

I hate that argument because no matter my reasoning or how eloquent my defense I'm going to come across as an irredeemable pervert so basically all I can do is show you that it isn't simply a manga for pervs but that it has interesting characters and a well developed story not to mention it's funny as hell.

but of course like everyone who makes that argument nothing I show you will change your opinion so the best I can say is why would anyone play a game where your only objective is to kill people horribly?

There is no sound reason to couple kids with sex, that is begging for trouble.

I enjoy killing people in games (I get bored of going on killing sprees in GTA/prototype etc though), as a society we have become desensitized to violence though films, books and games. We also have a massive blood lust, from gladiators to cage fighters to wars to hunting, we love violence.

It might be somewhat acceptable in Japan and China to read or watch children or child like characters be involved in sexual things (I don't mean it to sound like every one of them has kids acting like prostitutes or sexually charged) but in the US and the Uk as soon as you say kids and sex in the same sentence people get a bitter taste in there mouths.

There are some people saying there should be no censorship but I think there should be boundaries and kids and sex is one of them.

Even kids know it's wrong, if you take a baby and sexually abuse it, it will know something is wrong even though it's never been taught otherwise.

Some things should just be kept separate to me. It seems most of you are ok with it, which makes me think are are you kind of okay with kiddie fiddlers? It's almost like you can understand it.

I don't want to insult anybody or anything, I just have a hard time accepting your angry people are wanting to censor this.

*Sigh* Cultural difference strikes again...

Soon im going to have to start buying manga to get it...

You say that your not trying to offend anybody in the same sentence you accuse us of being accepting of child abuse,
What part am I not meant to be offended by?

Just because something is offensive DOES NOT give ANYONE the right to censor it
also regarding killing being accepted in our culture but child abuse not being does, a lack of acceptance mean we should ban something?
Would you ban Lolita?
And the last I checked normal rape was looked down upon should we ban A Clockwork Orange?
And while killing may be accepted in our media last I checked it's still illegal to do
Should we ban any depiction of any illegal or distasteful act in any media?

And finally one very important fact which I'm going to put in caps because it requires emphasis

THERE ARE NO CHILDEREN BEING HARMED BY THIS, IT IS A COLLECTION OF DRAWINGS TRYING TO TELL A STORY NOTHING MORE.

 

[neoontime]

Hmm Child pornagraphy or good anime
good anime done, i'll just close my eyes like i always did when i was ten

I never said you definitely condone it or endorse it, I said "kind of okay with it". I also never said it was offensive.

There was a thread on these very forums awhile ago about a place in, I think, New York were people were having sex with animals, everyone on this site was shocked and stunned that this was going on.

(as Jimmy Carr has said) people aren't going to bother most animals with there junk so there probably not doing the animal much harm. I am also a dog wouldn't be to put out doing a woman so theres no real harm either way but people were still shocked at it, so even though there is no harm it's still wrong.

I don't know why anybody would find it interesting enough to read or watch it, what happened to taste and decency? I know I will be repeating myself but there isn't a good reason to include children with sex, fictional or not.

As for the book, why? I assume it was to tap into a niche of people interesting in sex with kids. Clockwork orange, from my recollection, doesn't show any rape, it implies it, hills have eyes would have been a better film. Even that is on an adult, which isn't the issue here.

Some things need to be censored, I think it would be wrong to sit down and watch a porno with the kids. Kids need to be kept innocent, they have the rest of there life to be corrupted and I think these things are just speeding up that process.

My faith in humanity is far from strong.

Were never going to agree on it so continuing this is a little futile.

 

[Claymorez]

I'm not much one for 'mature' manga as in with sexual content - however I understand many are and that this is an unfair response to that individual's article.

It's not for kids, kids aren't supposed to see it so on that point you've got no argument

also there is a good reason it's called the story,
you can't say that a story is pointless because you don't like the content.

Frankly I think that you should read this before judging it but as you said we are never going to agree so let's leave it at that.

EDIT by "this" I mean the manga in question

 

[Terramax]

Hmm, i havent noticed anything from my usual mangas getting deleted... naybe since i dont read the ones with boobs (Or atleast not much...) or lots of Gore.

So you're missing out on Blade of the Immortal? Shame on you.
