my god this is like the craziest thing i've read!

''TOKYO (AFP) – A Japanese man has enlisted hundreds of people in a campaign to allow marriages between humans and cartoon characters, saying he feels more at ease in the "two-dimensional world."

Comic books are immensely popular in Japan, with some fictional characters becoming celebrities or even sex symbols. Marriage is meanwhile on the decline as many young Japanese find it difficult to find life partners.

Taichi Takashita launched an online petition aiming for one million signatures to present to the government to establish a law on marriages with cartoon characters.

Within a week he has gathered more than 1,000 signatures through the Internet.

"I am no longer interested in three dimensions. I would even like to become a resident of the two-dimensional world," he wrote.''

if u wana read the rest got to this site: http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20081030/od_afp/japancartoonmarriageoffbeat_081030061822

ok, we might like our favourite characters but to the extend of marriage??? i just like to hear your opinions about this!

Well... That was inevitable!

Had to happen sometime.

wtf?

oh shits

Wow...  I feel sorry for all the manga/anime characters who will be forced to marry the people who can't tell reality from fiction.

I wonder what the manga creators would say to this...

ok...?

actually it can still b evitable if the japanese authority refusues the whole million signature petition thingi, i mean they didnt even accept gay marriages (wich im actually glad), so this one is a long shot.
but thinkin of it rationally, how desprate is the guy??? n what will he exactly DO to IT after they get married?
n bout the manga creators... i kinda wonder as well!

So instead of asking your lovers parents for their hand you ask their creator?
I like most of the DC characters... but marriage? That's a bit to much... >_>"

Wow... Who would've thought....

I can see this as an argument for ALOT of stuff

A Man can marry a fictional character dressed like a cat that has perfect skin and things that are WAY to big to be real... Yet we can't have





I wonder how that even works... You walk up with a cardboard cut out of the anime character with the writer there??

Woah, how would he live life w/her? Like doing *** and stuff, then having babies, building a family, and all others... This would end as nonsense

Anime characters usually do have big teeth...

Wait!! does that mean that my marriage is not legal!!!


Sorry baby, I guess we weren't meant to be after all    

Hahahaha
