When the adults are away the kiddies will play

(Warning - parental guidance(?) is advised)

I'ts been a while since I discovered that Kodomo no Jikan has been licensed. I still can't fully accept it. WHAT THE F*** ARE THOSE AMERICANS THINKING? Titles like these aren't meant for the average consumer.

So what is Kojika(Kodomo no Jikan)? It's a story about a teacher who was just newly hired in an elementary school. He handles a grade-3 class after their previous homeroom teacher left "due to sickness". The manga is about his everyday struggle to teach the children.... things.

Now why am I so annoyed at Kojika's licensing? Usually, when I hear of of a title being licensed, I just let it be and hope that somehow an underground group still release the title. But this time, it's different. Not that because I follow it or anything(just picked it up and read it when I was bored). But it's because manga like these should NOT be officially licensed to North America. NEVER. EVER. As Akatsuki-manga's division L puts it, "If you don't like stories about little girls, and I mean stories ABOUT little girls, stay away from kojika". It has a mature rating (explicit sexual content) but look at the story...

Here are some examples of what I'm talking about(scanlations from akatsuki-manga):

Kiss your freedom goodbye sensei
What are kids talking about these days eh?
Be careful what you wish for
That's some motivation to study hard

I can't post the images here, since they're not "safe"...

*sigh* Manga and anime could have a really really bad reputation because of acts like these by those american licensing companies... And I thought those americans were pretty sensitive when it comes to these topics...

Magicalcrap, ExS Deep Striker, ready to rock and roll









I am the mission.
You're a mecha pilot!

You might be a sub-category of bishounen, but this hardly matters since you don't notice anything that didn't feature in the last edition of Guns'n'Ammo magazine. You have been trained since an unfeasibly early age to be a machine of death and destruction. If you've noticed an annoying girl following you around and repeatedly getting into danger and requiring rescue recently, run like hell - she's probably your love interest...

Which generic anime character are you?





... That was kinda expected...

Buildup

The time is nearing when rushwork for my SP (Special Problems) begins. I will start seriously working on it when I finally get the Visual Editor for Eclipse up and running.

S.Haruhi ends today with the 14th episode... awww... Its over... I hope they make a second season since the books haven't been fully covered yet.

I'm probably going to visit LB this thursday for some official and unofficial business. I have to renew my ID (finally after 7 looong years...) if I want to borrow papers from ICS library again. And I will... I HAVE TO.

Good luck to me and all the people working on their theses and similar crap.

Fack Yao

He won... again...

Which means more fackyao endorsements... more commercials... more interviews... more fackyao crap...

I don't hate the guy but I'm certainly getting fed up about the endorsements and commercials left and right with fackyao in it...

It would have been interesting if Larios actually won instead of Fackyao.

Maybe "Fackyao for President" isn't such a farfetched idea after all...
