Samurai Deeper Kyo

[rekall]

Often (although not lately) I've come across arguments from homophobes that teh_ghei can't be in shounen series because the target audience is males...

Which is why I always giggle like mad when I start reading a new series and find stuff like the following:







*snerk*

As for the series itself, it's really good. Normally I don't read a lot of historical mangas (which is strange since Japanese History was one of my favourite classes in school) but so far 'Samurai Deeper Kyo' is my favourite. Lots of action and blood. I love seeing blood splattered everywhere as guys are cut in half.

OMG SAMURAI DEEPER KYO. xDDDD Sasuke is my favorite character, too! Haha! /shota'd

I think some male shounen manga-ka have been loosening up with that sort of stuff, anyway. I'm looking at you, Kishimoto. /eyelids lower

Sasuke is adorable. He's probably my second favourite behind Yukimura.

I agree that shounen manga-ka have been loosening up with that stuff, I simply remember many fanbrats back in the day who would always argue "KUROFAY WILL NEVER BE CANON BECAUSE IT'S IN A SHOUNEN MANGA!"
