There are a few that are quite good. Some you don't even realise were world manga.

You are right there are a few stinkers tho, we dont notice any in actual manga cause they never get the chance to be shipped overseas.

Why is it manga when he's American?

Meh, it's like when people claim that any punk music written after the 70s punk movement ended isn't 'real' punk (oh the irony of claiming to be punk, and then applying rigid labels to things...). The fact is, all American comicbooks are called 'manga' if you're Japanese because 'manga' means 'comic book'. Manga as a label for Japanese comics is an entirely western idea in the first place, so it's perfectly reasonable for westerners to appropriate and emulate it.

Likewise, 'anime' is Japanese for 'animation' and by extension 'cartoon'. Distinctions are arbitrary.

I thought the literal translation for anime was that it was a joining of the two words, 'Animated Manga'?

First I've heard of that as its always been the western takeover of the word rather than a translation. Same for manga really.

Honestly, we should just go back to 'Japanimation'. It makes more sense.

Well, where I come from, "punk" means "ill", "sickly", "weak", or similar, so I have a *much* broader definition of what "punk music" means than the average.... >:)

Seriously, this guy is either one really effective troll, or just plain batshit loopy.

We'll see if Shueisha, Viz, and Tite Kubo think of it as paying "homage".

But do I have the evidence to back me up? Should I press further?

Judge, please keep your mind on the case.

It seems that testimony was pretty cut and dry. But as a prosecuter, it is my duty to find the truth!

[PRESS]________[OBJECTION!!!]________[ORGANISER]

- Like most artists I am inspired by work I admire.

- There are certain similarities between some of my work and the work of others.

- This was simply meant as an homage to artists I respect, and I definitely want to apologize to any Manga fans or fellow Manga artists who feel I went too far.

- My inspirations reflect the fact that certain fundamental imagery is common to all Manga.

- This is the nature of the medium.

- I am a big fan of Bleach, as well as other Manga titles.

- And I am certainly sorry if anyone was offended or upset by what they perceive to be the similarity between my work and the work of artists that I admire and who inspire me."

OBJECTION!

Edgeworth: "May I bring to the court's attention this piece of evidence: a recent copy of Nick Simmons' "Incarnate". More specifically, this page.

Point to where the contradiction lies!

TAKE THAT!

Edgeworth: "As you can see in the corner of the cover, this book has a price-tag."

Payne: "Uuurk!" *re-adjusts wig

Edgeworth: "If his drawings were truly a homage, his motive to draw would have been to express fandom, rather than making money. As such, these drawings would be more suited to a free account on deviantART, rather than published, paid print."
