“Tinjauan KOSMO! kelmarin mendapati, animasi seks yang lebih popular dengan panggilan Anime dijual secara berleluasa dengan harga RM15 sekeping”
Hello? Anime does not stand for “animasi seks” (pornographic animation).
For the uninitiated, Japanese comic books are known as manga while Japanese animated movies/series are known as anime. Any form of media such as photos, books, magazines, videos or websites may contain pornographic elements. However, that does not mean that all movies are pornographic, or all magazines are pornographic. Likewise, not all anime contain pornographic material. In fact, anime with porn elements in it is known as hentai.
KOSMO dear, please get your facts straight before making such sweeping statements and insulting tons of anime fans out there. What an outrage!
Let’s take a look at what the various student representatives have said in the article:
Seks boleh dipelajari tetapi ia perlu pengawasan.
- Ungku Zarith Sofiah Ungku Ibrahim (MPP UIA)Anime ini hiburan yang berunsur negatif di sebalik permainan. Ia perlu dikekang.
- Mohamad Fauzan Mokhtar (Yang Dipertua MPP UPM)Ini tak patut berlaku, ia mencemarkan budaya kita.
- Afidah Abu Talib (Jaksa Kolej Ungku Omar UKM)Jangan biarkan ia terus digilai oleh belia, buruk akibatnya nanti.
- Mohammad Azhar Abdul Razak (Yang Dipertua MPP UiTM)Saya pernah lihat dalam bentuk komik. walaupun kartun, ia tak elok.
- Melati Rosli (Jawatankuasa Perwakilan Kolej Melati, UiTM)Anime boleh mewujudkan masalah sosial, ia tidak sepatutnya dibiarkan ada di pasaran.
- Chua Hock Kuan (Naib Yang Dipertua MPP UM)
Ungku, so do you mean sex can be learnt from watching anime? And that it’s alright if learnt in moderation?
Fauzan, anime is NOT a game.
Melati, naughty, naughty. So you’ve read hentai manga?
Chua, not you too? From UM? What an embarassment!
