Another well-deserved honour for a beloved creator. If this ever happened to me, I'd make people call me Chevalier...

Makes sense, she has made some very famous works, and in the case of Urusei Yatsura, era defining.

Not gonna lie, I thought since France is a republic there would not be knighthood but no. |

Why can't the US give out something like this?

The presidential medal of freedom is the closest thing we have. But as far as I know Takahashi’s mangas are not as popular here as they seemingly are in other foreign countries. |

Bad news: She's the only mangaka with that many series here.

"The presidential medal of freedom" it's the most USA name I can think. |

I feel the need to shout out her self-portrait for looking like Hermes from Futurama.

Because in the US it would just be used as a PR stunt . The US isn't that interested in comics or manga relatively compared to other countries. |
