Such a goddamn disappointment.

And he just started drawing Rurouni Kenshin again for his Hokkaido Arc.

And he'll probably complete it before Yoshihiro Togashi completes the current Hunter x Hunter arc.

That's awful, and now Rurouni Kenshin is tainted for me forever. :(
---

Ugh...Rurouni Kenshin is easily my favorite Shonen manga too.

Was it loli hentai

Child porn is called west shaming. We are enforcing our tyrannical culture of 18 being age of consent on others.

No apparently he bought a bunch of home made DVDs or something and the police caught him when following the trail.

Supposedly he might not end up serving jail time because just possessing them isn't necessarily a big deal in Japan but idk.

So his life is ruined because some teenage girl recorded her and her friends being naughty?
It is a woman's world. Power of feminity. This man will be getting dirty looks and his reputation ruined

In his deposition, Watsuki allegedly said that he "liked girls in late elementary school to around the second year of middle school."

Yikes.

I know cultures are different and everything, but still, being attracted to girls that are 11 or 12 years old is crazy

The impression I got by "home made" is that somebody was running a child porn studio in their basement but I can't read Japanese so I don't know I'm just repeating what others are saying.

How are you supposed to draw loli without reference material?

Okay, maybe skip the Kenshin has funny feelings for Ayame and Suzume arc.

I brought that up before and someone equated it to how dragons don't exist but people can draw them, like you still don't have to pour over pictures of modern reptiles to get a base.

2017 is now officially worse than 2016 for me.

The fuck you talking about? No one forced him to have it. Stop being weird.

I didn't realize that Kenshin's creator was so young, which is the only surprising aspect of this story.

Don't worry, he'll have a *lot* of free time on his hands to draw that now.

Uh, Japan also has laws against it and their laws are far stricter than ours. They'll arrest adults for talking to other peoples' children over there.

First off:
In his deposition, Watsuki allegedly said that he "liked girls in late elementary school to around the second year of middle school."

Second, most commercial porn isn't girls "recording themselves and their friends being naughty."

manga artist

Was that not a giveaway?

Whatever he could have been set up by the American military and who here doesn't find Japanese teenager women hot?

yep. the american military set up a random japanese dude who, not only lives in japan, but was in japan when he was caught

Well, there's people out there that think 17 years old = 10 years old.

Why weren't there lolis in Kenshin. There was a shota at best and he was the worst part of Kenshin.

Source? The article contradicts your statement.

According to the authorities, Watsuki possessed numerous DVDs with nude footage of young girls in their early teens, and stored them at an office in Tokyo at least as recently as October.

He said 10-14, which while not sub 10, is still absolutely not cool.

13 is the age of consent with teenagers in some places of japan so i feel like people here are taking this way out of hand as far as cultural norms go

he's a stupid idiot for keeping that around and yes I loved rouroni kenshin as well the first and 2nd arcs were great with shishio

There has to be a cut off though right? Because if we go by Well 17 is close enough to 18, its fine its not long before people start saying Well 16 is close to 17, whats the problem? and so on.

given that he was literally arrested for it, its safe to say that that doesn't apply here.
