As a writer of erotic fiction, I do have a clear understanding of what is appropriate to post online with and without proper warnings - and what those warnings need to be. I also understand when to stand back and look at a manga website claiming to be removing mature content that had proper warnings, and call it the crap that it is. They caved to the all mighty dollar of advertising pressure. I wonder if they considered that the ad folks won't be seeing the traffic if there are no people left to visit their annoying pop-up links if they are irritated that their favorite content is no longer available?
For as many excerpts as I have shared online, in public forums, detailing explicit sexual scenarios with a simple warning - as per guidelines of host sites and servers - including ones like Blogger - a beg screen with an adult content disclaimer accompanied by a warning and you are good to go. For as many as I have shared, in all the years I've been published, I've never had a complaint. Not. A. One. Not over male/male pairings, female/female pairings, or even threesome, foursome or moresomes - none of them! In six years of being a published erotic novelist I've gotten some negative feedback from readers, we all have, but it had nothing to do with sexual content (but for one novel where readers actually wanted a whole lot more, you randy buggers).
So, knowing my readers, I also know a lot of you are serious manga junkies like me. How do I know this? A few of you guys infected me, damn it! So here is some advice if you are freaking out about not being able to find your favorite series on Onemanga or Mangafox - take a trip over to MangaToshokan or:
You can find the following at For the Halibut Scans:
Seikon no Qwaser
VITA Sexualis
Asu no Yoichi
Omamori Himari
Freezing
Kampfer
Rappi Rangai
Princess Resurrection
Akane-iro ni Somaru Saka
If you know anyone who is into manga, pass the word. In today's world we shouldn't have to still fight to save "banned books" but here we are, again :( on the Internet, a place supposed to be free of that sort of onerous oppression. Just irritates me to no end.
