During all these years I've lived in Belgium I've noticed that many people have wrong ideas on manga and/or anime. Most people think that it's Japanese Porn (I even thought it was porn when I was younger!) or they think that anime is manga and don't even know the difference.
And today I've red how they found someone(here in Belgium) that was murdered, and had his/her limbs missing, with two notes next to it. The notes said 'Watashi wa Kira dess', Japanese for 'I am the murderer' and it refers to a sentence from the famous Manga Death Note.
This makes me fear for the view people have on manga. It is not so popular here in Belgium and almost no one knows about it. And it makes me sad to know that when I tell people about my love for manga that they will refer to all those bad things.
Now I ask of you, what do you think about the views that people, who don't know anything about manga, have on manga?
