An Otaku So Ronery He Wants to Marry a Manga Character
OK, so you’ve got this Japanese dude, right? Now, imagine him being so socially inept he can’t get laid, and so starts a petition to get government to make it legal to marry cartoon characters. While this sounds like something out of Welcome to the NHK, according to news.com.au, some dude actually wants to do this. Jesus Christ…
Look, there is nothing wrong with reading/watching fiction as a form of escape (hell, psychologists say it’s actually beneficial for you). But this is taking shit too far.
Firstly, there are the legal aspects - the manga chick, being a fictional character, is the copyrighted property of someone else. So even if the copyright-holder would allow you to marry her (let’s not think about their sanity if they did…), how would you work out things like insurance, taxes and the like? I mean, if the character gets killed off in the story, do you get the life insurance? Does the manga/anime producer get charged for murder? Would you be declared legally insane for even wanting to marry a fictitious character?
Secondly, there’re the social aspects. Don’t be surprised if your family does the right thing by cutting you off and removing you from all family records. Hell, if you’re so far gone that you want to marry a fictional character and even want to live in a 2D world (as this guy does), your family has probably forgotten you even exist. You also won’t have to worry about friends ostracizing you - you probably don’t have any left at this point. Taijin kyofusho, anyone?
Thirdly, how the fuck did this guy manage to get over 1000 signatures in over a week? Jesus, there are more of them? On a related note, here’s a chicken-or-egg question: what comes first, losing your job because you’re so messed up you want to marry a 2D character or being so messed up that you want to marry a 2D character and can’t get a job? Guess we should ask this guy, I doubt he has one. Anyway, the tl;dr version of this can be summed up in the picture below:

Well, I guess we could say that the whole “dowry” aspect of yesteryear has taken on a new aspect of ownershit counteracted by feminism in order for the severely retarded male to htink this is a good idea - doesn’t make it sensible or even (internationally) socially acceptable.
The guy is a creep, a freak, and should be put away. I mean, sure, I want to tie my girlfriend or boyfriend to bits of furniture and rape them, but that’s NORMAL in comparison.
This is actually more abmormal than going after an animal, then again…he’s Japanese.

I bet there are probably tons of people like this. But what shocks me is that someone with that little life can actually do something like that…

I would have to say that I would do that. and I’m not japanese. and I’m already in a relationship. I find anime women more attractive than real ones. I have fapped to more anime women, collected more porn of anime women, jizzed on more pictures of anime women, and touched more figurines of anime women than I have of real women. Nothing can stop my love for them. Trying to do so is like trying to stop an ocean from waving. You’d have to blow up the moon, so why try? My love for them is so deep, I would gladly take a bullet to prevent it from puncturing a animation cell featuring my favorite anime gal. I shall not say which one is my favorite but I shall say that I veiw them all as the most beautiful creatures that I have ever and shall ever lay my eyes upon.

Teko, wow. You best be trolling. If not, you are one disgusting fucking mutation of a human being. I absolutely… Wow.
Put it this way, I hate a lot of people, but you… I would readily beat you senseless, just because.
Maybe this is nature making sure the fucking idiots don’t breed. I hope you do take a bullet for an anime character.

This man is the future. He’s the first animal to leave the shore for the interior and I wish him nothing but the best of luck. Marrying an anime character. Amazing. There are people alive who remember a time when anime didn’t exist and now this brave man is marrying an entity from one. This has given me hope for the future.

Oh admit it, Cakedollar, my boy, as soon as we get humanoid robotics there is going to be a market for people that want to fuck them…or well, be fucked by them-IRRELEVANT!
The point is that sex has benefited so much from technology it can’t be helped. The condom (ancient, really), the vibrator, the fleshlight (gross), and the real doll.
It’s only a matter of time where we find a neural stimulous, a drug, or something that makes us stop fucking each other altogether…
…but where’s the fun in no more teen pregnancies and AIDS?
Not that I’m retracting my statement that this is some fucked up behavior, but…it seems inevitable. Like how some countries are drawn to socialism, the Japanese seem to be drawn to dissociative sexual perversion.
Also, anything that might make the Catholics shit a brick has to be worth it, right?
While this is disturbing and wrong, it’s inevitable (again, kinda like socialism).
Besides, the men here know…wait, I think this is pretty much an intellectual scholar Greek bath without the gay sex…so we know how easy it is to fuck pretty much anything.

dude, just let the guy fuck his pillow in peace. He ain’t bothering or molesting anyone. the same people who are in shock and disgust now were the same people who were in shock and disgust over homosexuality and mixed race couples. the guy is in love with an inanimate object and there ain’t no way you can spin it as “he’s taking advantage/harming of her/it.”
As for trying to legally marry a fictitious copy-righted character? well good luck on that one. Why can’t he just take up drawing and makeup his own girl?
Media study majors are going to have a field day with this guy

I cannot fucking believe how insensible people can be. Jesus motherfucking Christ. I’d understand if this guy made any harm to you, you would be angry, but i doubt that is the case.
These motherfuckers deserve to Jump into a hole full of spikes, and filled with Gasoline and burned.
Fuck man, I don’t practice shit like this myself, but if the guy wants to, fucking let him.
