...but come on, you cant blame this on the manga. Some people are just stupid, no matter what they read... (granted, I can think of a few manga titles that probably WOULD rot your brain...)

This is clear evidence that manga is a conspiracy by Japan to capture the worlds youth.

Oh, please. Next you're going to tell me anime on public television is a plot to corrupt the minds of the youth into becoming introverted, antisocial shut-ins who don't leave their room for years on end!

dumbdumbdumbdumbdumbdumbdumbdumbdumbdumbdumb dumbdumbdumbdumbdumbdumbdumbdumbdumbdumbdumb. Sheesh, traveling around the world is not as simple as it sounds now does it? They would have still been caught at customs because you need a passport no matter what country you go to. And now their parents will get mad at the Japanese and the manga industry and then we're going to have another legal issue again. |

These girls are idiots. Traveling to Japan without passports because they think it'll be a wild and crazy place with samurai and giant robots or whatever they saw in their manga. Real stupid. Of course, their parents will try to get all anime and manga banned now, but they'll lose the case miserably and instead be told to take care of their kids.

I think it was a joke. Everyone knows that Chimpokomon was Japans attempt to caputre the worlds youth. |

Pity the French don't have a Greyhound or Trailways franchise. Those girls could have saved a ton of francs. ![]() |

Well, at least the parents can be relieved over the fact that they ran away due to their love of Japan, J-Pop and manga. Not because they met some foriegn 25-year-old on MySpace and know that they are "soul-mates" and are meant to be together.

Not that it really matters, but it's Euro, now... Anyway, I actually found this to be pretty darn funny. Yes, we all have a love for manga, but it doesn't mean to go overboard with it. Heck, I'd love to visit Japan, but I'd never escape to Japan. (I don't think I even want to live there, it's expensive) Some people take their obsessions way too far. |

I got 10 bucks says they were rabid yaoi fans too boot. In fact, I'll bet that's how the Polish authorities nabbed them.
Police Officer 1 : Hey, does that girl have a paddle with the word "Yaoi" written on it? Police Officer 2 : Why, so she does. That's oh so very wrong. We'd better arrest them. |

You know it's not that difficult to travelfrom France to Japan. It looks expensive though and needs a high degree of coordination. If they had brought their passports, visas and visa support with them, they would have made it there.
![]() And, they still would have needed to have bought their Japan Rail Passbefore leaving Europe. I think that it's nice that they wanted to visit Japan. However, their execution of their plan was just plain stupid imo! ![]() |

No wonder they got caught, they didn't dress for the occasion
![]() Seriously I can't read Japanese, so I am just going to assume they were dressed like this ![]() |

The Japanese article said the exact same thing, but if that's them, then they're no different than any other manga fan.

Not at all, I'm saying they're not afraid to cosplay.
