Right, on the scale of 1 to 10 how likely is it for them to completely can the Hokkaido Arc? How long does it take on average for nips to resolve a scandal?

10. Nobody is gonna hire a pedo degenerate

> How long does it take on average for nips to resolve a scandal?

I don't think there's any coming back from child pornography. Watsuki in particular thanked his western fans for the continued support, but now especially those hate him and consider him a monster.

1

I love how different opinions are about what's going to happen to Watsuki. Nobody knows anything for sure.

10. Tokyo Olympics are in 3 years and Japan wants no trouble with pedos and shit.

As if an other mangaka coulndt draw the rest of it

This. It's over.

In Japan manga is an author's work. It's not like the west were you have 200+ people drawing and writing Spider-Man. Even if Watsuki is tainted now, no one will want to read Rurouni Kenshin not written by Watsuki. It would be essentially fanfiction.

If it had been an extramarital affair or drug I would say 4 and 6 respectively.
Watsuki being a kiddy diddler makes it a 10, Kenshin is dead, same goes for anything Kenshin related project they could have working on.

This is japan

I dont know how it is in japan but in America being outed as a pedo is the only thing you cant come back from no matter how rich or famous you are.

Dubs confirm.

>anons buy over 9000 mangas and ask for more
>for lulz
>they have no choice but to continue
Imagine

>tfw hugh crackdown soon because of the stupid fucking olympics

Orimpikuso was a mistake

The issue is also that it would still be owned by him. If.he sells the franchise it might still survive, actually, but while he owns it the taint is there and no one is touching it.

That's not really true though. A manga run is done by a single person, but plenty of franchises that go beyond a single manga run have more than one person handling them. Look at Lupin III or the recent Osomatsu revival.

But what if they pull the art vs artist, and bring some new mangaka under the idea readers should have a proper clousure?
Also, isn’t Toyo making Dragon ball? In this case it wouldn work that way, but there are few cases where you can replace the mangaka.

Will take at least 7 years.

don't worry user !
"i'm happy i won't be arrested"

I only know that drugs can kill you reputation in Japan like this animenewsnetwork.com/news/2015-10-27/kill-me-baby-actress-idol-ai-takabe-arrested-for-alleged-drug-possession/.94677 , Where they removed all the DVD/BD of kill me Baby, There are a little chance that he can continue his works if one take as consideration Toriko Author animenewsnetwork.com/news/2002-08-07/mitsutoshi-shimabukuro-arrested

This guy ate a girl and is a celebrity.

Japs don't give a shit.

Ok so how likely are they to coerce him into selling the franchise completely to JUMP? If they keep his editor things would still be pretty much the same, only the art would change and it won't necessarily be a bad thing because Watsuki's current art is pretty shit to be honest.

He can just do it like Boruto, sell the franchise but keep the same staff and editor. Because at the rate he's going he's going to doom a beloved franchise, if he truly loves his "child" he would let go and divorce it from his own disgrace.

Lupin III and Osomatsu don't really have a continuity though, they exist in these kind of Simpsons-like mythical world where time does not seem to pass ever and that allows the possibility of infinite stories. Kenshin has one true story and that's Watsuki's.

he killed a gaijin girl
he killed an adult girl

What does this mean?

Is Miura next on the pedo chop list?

I don't know why you're worried. It was 3DCP he had, not loli.

The difference is that Kishimoto still works with the staff on Boruto

Kenshin is fucked for good. Even if you managed to get another artist to draw the manga, there's still the fact that Watsuki owns the series. It could have an amazing story but many will refuse to touch it because of the CP scandal.

Toriyama and Kishimoto dont draw Super or Boruto but they still work with staff members on some level and didn't do anything close to as bad as what Watsuki did

What's his name again?

>Yahiko isn't even part of the journey
>those three new shitters are

Yeah, I'm glad this arc is cancelled.

9, Shueisha already hinted that they are getting rid of the volumes they do have

>bringing your 6-year-old child to an RK arc

What, do they want Kenji to get killed?

>Shueisha already hinted that they are getting rid of the volumes they do have

Nobuhiro "Claimed he bought 100 CP CDs as a joke" McMicheal

Yeah but that guy didn't have a manga published in a magazine mostly read by kids.

can't watsuki still give them control of the series for a while but with him still getting money from it?

He should start drawing loli once he gets out of jail. 100 cds is a lot of reference material.

Wasn't he the son of a rich businessman? And his fucking story and concret girl still triggers me. Right now I am mad again.

Yes, but what if they start arresting others, like Bubukka, Miura, Tsukushi, etc?

Did it seriously end by getting on the boat? I haven't read the latest chapter.
What a curse.

Nobuhiro "An Hero" Watsuki

Pedo File.

remind me why he is still free after killing and eating a girl?

>The publisher added that it has not decided what to do with Watsuki's manga volumes already in print, because the matter is still under discussion.

Doesn't help that the anime distributer said that they'll drop it as soon as Shueisha tells them too.

Considering how much japs care about saving face, I doubt Shueshia will ever let him publish again, and its not like Kenshin is one of their flagship titles anymore.
I like Kenshin, but I doubt that it will constitute a great loss for them.

>gives Yahiko the sakabatou as his genpuku
>yoink, just kidding, gimme my sword back

I wanted to see Yatsume (Carnage guy) again...

For the same reason that the guys who kidnapped, raped and tortured a girl to death are still free. The japanese judicial system is retarded.

He was declared as mentally ill, so he couldn't be send to prison forever or some dumb shit, basically he spend some money on the right people.

I know a guy who can sort that out

What's with japan and boats?

legal void
French and Japanese justice system are pretty dumb.

>brings the sakabatou but not Yahiko

What message does that bring?

I'm guessing that they will be intelligent enough to get rid of ther cp (if they have any) after what happened.
Or at least not be so retarded as to ask on a honeypot if having 100 dvds is ok.

Reminder
>ご回答有り難う御座います、逮捕されないだけありがたいです。
>Thanks for answering. I'm glad I won't be arrested.

There's a famous japanese fashion designer who got kicked out of the industry because of a fucking marijuana scandal.

Don't forget Aya Hirano, who just happened to have sex with some random guy.

If people can get kicked out of industries for sex and weed, what makes you guys think there's any remote chance of anyone ever touching Kenshin again, considering the seriousness of this situation? I can't think of a single group any first world society loathes more than pedos.

But the Toriko guy!!

it will depend by
1: Will shueisha fire him?
2: can he work from the jail?

>aya hirano
>random guy
I bet you like hurahi to be that delusional

>who just happened to have sex with some random guy
With her entire band, you mean.

This He was declared as mentally ill/retarded and was sent to a mental institution.
Reports say he had some stomach ache but french medics thought it was some terminal illness and his father took this chance to move him to tokio. French goverment didnt opose since he was "dying" already.
Back in Japan, medics found he had no terminal illness. So in conclusion, he got free because he didnt commit a crime in Japan and the French goverment retired his charges against him, believing he was already dying.

It's amazing how the fucker got away with it and nobody has already shot the fucker.

Nobuhiro "can't get a sixteen, get two eights" Watsuki

>this fucking story
Is this fucking real? So did french fries and japan screw it up?

Nobuhiro "Thank you so much, I'm glad that I won't be arrested after all!" Watsuki

Nobuhiro "busou renkin is better" wazuki

Nobuhiro "The Absolute Madman" Watsuki

Yahiko decided to give it up the sword willingly.

Japan couldn't do shit because he didnt do anthing in his homeland.
French and french only screw it up.

Nobuhiro "I've now decided to live my life out as a sex offender" Watsuki

Aya Hirano is still relevant and the Toriko guy got off despite fucking an underage so...

Is Nakoruru an underage? She is Watsuki's favorite in SS.

This fucking guy, what a nerve.
>Between 1986 and 1997 he was frequently invited to be a guest speaker and commentator. In 1992, he appeared in Hisayasu Sato's exploitation film Uwakizuma: Chijokuzeme (Unfaithful Wife: Shameful Torture) as a sado-sexual voyeur. Sagawa has written books about the murder, as well as Shonen A, a book on the 1997 Kobe child murders. He has also written restaurant reviews for the Japanese magazine Spa. Sagawa can no longer find publishers for his writing and he has struggled to find employment. He was nearly accepted by a French-language school because the manager was impressed by his courage in using his real name, but employees protested and he was rejected.
>In 2005 Sagawa's parents died. He was prevented from attending their funeral, but repaid their creditors and moved into public housing. He received welfare benefits for a time. In an interview with Vice magazine in 2011, he said that being forced to make a living while being known as a murderer and cannibal was a terrible punishment.

>still relevant
Pretty sure her role is much limited these days.

>setup most of Jinchuu arc to make Yahiko into a viable successor of Kenshin
>new arc comes along, and lol here's your sword back

If there's one good that came out of this scandal, then it's the fact that this obvious cash grab of a sequel is getting canceled.

Nobuhiro "That's what I like about elementary school girls; I get older, they stay the same age" Watsuki

a 16 year old self prostituting gyaru.
Watsuki bought video to ring exploiting 10 years old children

Nobuhiro "If she can do long division then she can do me" Watsuki

>It's amazing how the fucker got away with it and nobody has already shot the fucker.

He killed and ate a gaijin; that's not considered cannibalism.

This guy strikes me as some confused entity which makes me unsure what to feel. Put him away and be done with it, I don't really care to be honest.

Concrete dudes set my teeth on edge because there was sheer, intentional malevolence at work.

Toriko guy is worse than one 16 years old in a random night. There were five and he looked for them near schools.

For the fags who may have missed it

Nobuhiro "Fingers a minor better than a guitarist" Watsuki

I just hope noone employ that piece of shit and die of starvation already or eat another person so the police can send him to rot in prison

really ?
I clicked on a article saying it was one 16 years-old prostitut
e.

This is page from last chapter?

Nobuhiro "If you liked Kenshin you'll love my Chinchin" Watsuki

Watsuki deserves more than one punishment, the guy was so narcissistic that despite having one red flag, he chose the one who appealed more to his own idea about how things should go.

How can a ningen be such a retard. Really, how did you fuck up this hard?

Here

>in 2011, he said that being forced to make a living while being known as a murderer and cannibal was a terrible punishment.

Yeah, poor him.

WHY DON'T WE JUST

TAKE THE SERIES

AND PUSH IT

TO SOMEONE ELSE?

treat it like an orphan, since its dad is a legit criminal.

tell me your dream foster parents (authors).

Where can I read Chapter 3 of the Hokkaido arc though
