Worst comic book guy look alive .. ever!

The fact that the article begins with "A Japanese man..." should be all you need to know he's not joking.

his parents must be very proud

Earlier this month, a woman addicted to manga put out an online message seeking to kill her parents for asking her to throw away comic books that filled up three rooms.

Damn...

People bitch about how Japan is a better and more cultured country...

 

[mastagoalie]

wtf? this would be like you in love with the girl/guy 3 houses down that didn't know your name, but you wanted to secretly marry them to be happy in your life!

creepy

Did she say yes?

Even trying to take this seriously (which, if allowed in court, I'd assume a judge would have to do), how would an animated character have free will to agree to a marriage. I can't just get married to my neighbor if i wanted to, why should he get to marry spider girl?

I just can't imagine lunatics like this were around 50 years ago. Back then, did they just have enough sense to keep quiet, or did people come out with stupid ideas, and were met by unfortunate accidents?

I'd marry Power Girl, no joke.

This is wrong on so many levels!! I agree, I hope this is some big joke or something!!

Y'all are missin the hilarity of the duels that would happen when two people wanted to marry the same character. I picture it being somewhere along the lines of the cripple fight on South Park between Timmy and Jimmy.

I imagine you could just draw a speech bubble and write "yes" in it. The real problem is what if that character is already married to someone else in the comics. Would I have to get Mary Jane to divorce Peter Parker before I can legally marry her? k

This is going to be one bloody, papercut filled honeymoon...
