- animeworldorder, on 10/12/2007, -17/+175At the risk of coming off as a jerk, this isn't technically "anime" porn. No, it's not even "manga" porn. This is actually a 100% American publication: the writers and artists are American and it's published by a US company named "Yaoi Press" (deceptively named to sound like it's a Japanese comicbook publisher when it's nothing of the sort) with distribution handled by Diamond Comics, the same people who distribute Marvel and DC comicbooks to American comicbook shops. So what we've actually got here is a case of American artists trying to mimic Japanese artists, but passing off what they make as being "manga."
I'm not just saying this to be pedantic. See, when people find out about this, the headline is inevitably "Walmart/Target are selling Japanese porno comicbooks," with the further implication being made by the average person that "since comicbooks are by and large for children, these Japanese comics are actually pornography being sold to children." In fact, they're selling American porno comicbooks disguised as Japanese ones (to what is perceived as "the children"). Still a bad, bad, BAD idea--I'm not opposed to the existence of such material, but I am opposed to it being sold to minors--but the net result is that it makes it seem like a bad thing being done by the actual publishers and distributors of Japanese comicbooks, when in fact this one's all us. It's a matter of who gets the finger pointed at them.
Diamond and company aren't going to look bad at all as a result of stories that are written like this. But they should. - NoNom, on 10/12/2007, -2/+107Walmart: We'll sell you yaoi hentai but we won't sell you uncensored CDs.
- Hydroxyl, on 10/12/2007, -6/+91Walmart took the product down.
loooool! - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -7/+83But will it ble-*stabbed by users*
- nixonrichard, on 10/12/2007, -3/+74"is there anything better than sicko porn?"
So, how's the view from up there on your pedestal? The love between a 12 yo and the tentacle that is raping him/her is a beautiful thing. - Crass22, on 10/12/2007, -3/+53Its not only anime porn, its gay themed anime porn. Look at what Yaoi means on wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaoi
- TekeeTakShak, on 10/12/2007, -0/+48Are you surprised they took it down?
- nixonrichard, on 10/12/2007, -3/+49A friend of mine wanted me to pick him up some Japanese porn while I was over there. I went to a bookstore and found what looked to be a normal Japanese hentai. When I gave it to him he threw it on the ground and said "I don't want that." I was a little bit surprised. He apparently immediately identified it as gay porn. I gotta say, it's confusing when they draw the guy with feminine features. That combined with the fact that a lot of their porn is of girls with underdeveloped or no boobs, and it's easy to see why I was confused. As it turns out, the title (translated) was "Man Boy Love 2" Damn you Japanese with your androgynous cartoon porn!
- Wolfghost, on 10/12/2007, -0/+40That's not a girl.
- Bob042, on 10/12/2007, -2/+30I'll clean up the mess, sorry about that.
- LethalAmbition, on 10/12/2007, -0/+23How did the blogger find this? What the hell was he searching for?
- markperia, on 10/12/2007, -0/+22lol. Girl. hahahahahahaha.
- rompom7, on 10/12/2007, -0/+18"The girl on the cover has no boobs... sad."
Umm.. Thats not a girl. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaoi
I just hope you haven't fapped to it already. - jesstech, on 10/12/2007, -0/+18Welcome to the Internet, may I take your hat?
- cquinnd, on 10/12/2007, -9/+27Good point, you should not be buried for trying to provide relevant information on the topic.
But most Diggers are probably not going to care about the difference between American and Japanese porno comicbooks. They will be too busy ragging on Walmart.com and Target.com for the purchasing mistake that led to these titles being included in the inventory in the first place.
- trparky, on 10/12/2007, -0/+17That is one of those questions you just don't want answered.
- edzieba, on 10/12/2007, -1/+18Dugg for the number of times I've seen Urutsudoki (or however the hell it's spelt) and the like mixed into the kids section.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+16yet they won't sell me Mature rated games........
- killinger777, on 10/12/2007, -1/+17Whatever happened to the Comic Code? And why does that girl have a tail?
- crilen007, on 10/12/2007, -0/+16Yes you ma... OH MY GOD GIVE ME MY ***** HAT BACK *runs*
- nublet, on 10/12/2007, -2/+17tentacles ftw!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16I typed in the URL and product was no longer listed... so I changed the number at the end and found this:
http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5170012
GAY PORN!
I bet in under 24 hours that item will be removed as well. - ScornForSega, on 10/12/2007, -36/+50@animeworldorder
Well, excuse me for not being a hentai connoisseur. - kcpwnsgman, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15@kazimir34
I am disapointed, I was expecting porn - SirZRX, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13i like their bussines model
- junestag, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14oh no - not PORN! they need to stick to selling wholesome guns.
- saikhan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12Says the guy with a Charmander avatar.
- gfreeman223, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11That's gross, if they were going to have hentai you think they'd start with the light softcore stuff instead of straight into the gay tentacle rape porn.
- zombiedepot, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9First they sell SS t-shirts and now this, hilarious. I remember when they took Tribes games off the shelves because of the D.C. sniper a few years ago. What a policy, you can't hear cussing on CDs, or use sniper rifles in video games, instead here's a bunch of weird tentacle sex and a t-shirt with a nazi symbol.
- colklink, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8OH...the old "friend dared me to look for porn on Walmart.com" excuse. If I had a nickel for every time I've heard that story...
- bickdigg, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8thought that walmart's style would have been gonzo..
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Now we all know why that little yellow ***** happy face is so damn happy all the time.
- greyfade, on 10/12/2007, -6/+13@SirNoobius: in the US, actually, yes, and no. in some states, it's illegal outright, but in several states, it's perfectly legal with permission of the animal's owner. (in a couple states, i believe it's entirely legal.)
is it gross and outlawed in so many places for good reason? *YES.*
i don't ***** animals, and neither should you. ewwwwww.... - trparky, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7I can't help but to laugh at that.
- dartmanx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Penny Arcade takes on yaoi:
http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2005/04/11 - 4040, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Bravo to the both of them for finally making man-on-man anime porn available to the masses. It's nice to know that hand-drawn pictures of anal sex between two men with large eyes and even larger penises is only a click away.
- dan0111, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Because every girl wants to get banged by a bunch of tentacles...
- nbcivic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5funny........they're out of stock.
- kutza, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6The girl on the cover has no boobs... sad.
- kutza, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Ewwwwe...
Luckily, hentai just doesn't get me off. I dabble in a little art myself and all I see is lines and contrast, not something to have sex with... - GyroLC, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I was going to call shenanigans on this story, but I'll be damned, it really shows up in Walmart's search engine.
- Akaji, on 11/10/2007, -8/+12Not only is it hentai, it's yaoi (gay-love) hentai.
Scary. - piratebill, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I used to work at target. My manager would have freaked if he saw this.
- pevensen, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Walmart has removed the DVDs from their website. If you search for them "yaoi hentai", they appear in the search list, but if you click on them, it says "Product not found."
- fowleryo, on 10/12/2007, -12/+16your friend sounds like a douche bag
- Derrekito, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4dugg down and blocked? funny I did the same to you!
- Aldrenean, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Wow. Your friends dared you to search for porn? And you DID??? That is so awesome, man! Your friends will so want you to sign their Yu-Gi-Oh! cards now!
- vdubski, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4The description sounds interesting from the Target website,
"This is yaoi at its most extreme: graphic scenes of loving between a college professor and his student, a bar-hopper & some thugs who kidnap him, members of a corrupt soccer team and a tentacle monster who's hot for a pair of twin bishounen. Nothing is left to the imagination! Mature and explicit content." -
