I just find it silly that they haven't caught him yet. Didn't he send those threats by regular post mail? It shouldn't be that hard. I doubt you can use a proxy to secretively send a package through delivery mail. I haven't watched any of Kuroko, but I'm at least glad that the manga had a big spike in sales this year, right in that bastard's face. Of course, all this ruckus made me even more interested in eventually watching/reading it. I hope at least, in that aspect, this backfires on the a**hole that's doing this, even if all doujinshi fans have to suffer |

Sigh, like Crowlia said, liking hot bishies is not being a fujoshi. Its when you watch stuff where they do 'naughty' things to each other that makes you a fujoshi. Learn the difference.
I am a girl who love HOT BISHIES. Period. I am not a girl who loves hot bishies doing 'naughty things' to each other. Once again, learn the difference, pal. |

Well if you've been following this you can't say it was unexpected.
I find it interesting that the Authorities are pushing the Comiket organizers to do this. I still believe there are significant chunks of information that the public in Japan ( and elsewhere ) doesn't have that are eliciting this sort of over the top response. Something is definitely rotten here and it isn't fujoshi. Mark Gosdin |

Uh, because it's ridiculously easy to catch a pirate. An IP address is all you need to contact the ISP to get their place of residence. Dropping off a letter or package to a mail box late at night isn't easy to track. |

This is the most idiotic thing I have ever heard. Can you imagine the outrage if Comic Con did something like this? At this point, I would be preparing a lawsuit. Granted Comiket is just a fan thing, but to have sales literally shut down because someone made a few threats has to be damaging his/her livelihood.

They sell doujinshi at Comic Con? 
I kid, but Comic Con is only a fraction of the size of Comiket. Less of a security risk. |

That's funny because you need a big tank of H2S to kill a cat. Otherwise, is the stink of rotten eggs. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_sulfide#Toxicity |

This is the response I expected, it's a shame for KuroBas doujin groups and those hoping to get some of the doujinshi. However, the rest of the event will go on, with higher security than usual as well.

Oh wow, he actually got it banned from Comiket? Thats the big one that actually matters, since KnB was like the hottest property in the last Comiket in terms of total doujins made. They've really let the crazy guy win by giving into him like this.
You do realize Comiket is far bigger than any American comic convention, right? We're talking about over a half million in attendance on a normal basis (Wiki says the New York Comic con gets about 100k). This is the biggest comic convention in the world and the single biggest anime/manga event. This could really hurt the hundreds of doujinshi artists working on KnB stuff too. They often spend months making their doujinshis and getting them printed and such for Comiket... and now they're told they can't come sell them? They could always try to sell them online or something I guess... but its never as effective as selling them on the convention floor.
