I just realized something. I know one thing they might have to modify in GALS! for legal reasons: all the references to stores like 7-Eleven, Gap, HMV, and Tower Records and fast food places like McDonald's and KFC, complete with unaltered logos. I've seen the Goodyear and Texaco logos in Oh My Goddess! in unaltered form, but GALS!, taking place in Shibuya with streets lined with famous, trendy, often western, store chains, has ten times as many real-life logos.


Rayearth and Fushigi Yuugi have gotten away with it, at least in their manga. I remember them specifically referencing McDonalds (with an old slogan to boot) and, more notoriously, Haggen-Dazs, however the heck it's spelled.

I'll be opened minded and assume DC Comics know what they are doing, but I hope that DC Comics doesn't use cmxmanga as another dumping ground for their superheroes stuff like Marvel.
