Contacted my purchaser.. this is how she reply me.. dunno i shud continue to worry or not..


what if they mistaken it as bomb??? hahaha, such a solid box-like shape wrapped with clothes.

yeah, i will update when the things.. manage to seludup in.. (and i tot finally i manage to get hardcopies of Berserk, mana tau tag along the ppl that like to drink kopi-o).. sigh

hopefully these "drinkers" wont surf lyn and saw this thread

P/S: Berserk anime is SOFTCORE, I guess that's y they din ban the anime. BUT, the storyline ended AWFULLY, stopped at beginning of the climax story! If u read the manga first then only watch the anime, it will off ur syiokness, TOTALLY. To those who have watch the anime but didn't read the manga, I recommend you to READ it.

There. Good explanation. It's probably not in any list. They just look at the cover, see all the naked people ... another issue with a different cover might get through. So the answer to the original question. No books or any stuff with naked people.

And TS is lucky. They just took only your book. If this was America, and someone thinks the girls appear to be under 18. You might be in jail for child-porn, even though those are hand drawn images, not photos of real people.

BTW: the earlier questions about mein kampf. I don't think our govt cares about it. It's das kapital that's more likely to be in the banned list.

Interestingly, there are a lot of books in the Malay language that are banned, and a small number of Japanese books.

It is not uncommon for the Home Ministry to detain foreign publications. Even simple things like the international version of the IHT from Hong Kong are intercepted and (amongst other things) pictures containing protests in Afghanistan/Iraq have their banners blacked out (as if there are many people in this country that can read Arabic/Pashtoon-Darwi).

Its not the end, but more likely than not you wouldn't get it back.

now i remember that home ministry got one agency that controls the publication. maybe got malaysians who reported about the gore contents in this manga.

Why the hell would they do that for?

You tell me. I have never understood the rationale for doing so, but then again this is bolehland.

Try to reduce your non-anime thoughts to the minimum or I move this thread over RWI.

dude, if u read carefully, this thread mentioned the word BANNED? U wont find the books in malaysia shops.

steel ball run issue 16 is also banned in malaysia. Sigh.

So if in this case the item that is being confiscate by the minister of home affairs do you have any way of seeking to reclaim the item or challenge on the basis of what grounds do they detain the so called item ???? If so ask them to produce proper papers on the detention of that item.

even if it's not banned, they still have reasons for confiscate. Contains too much violences and x scenes (same kind of genre with Gantz, except that Gantz = futuristic, Berserk = medievil). Kinda hard, what wonders me is, Y BANNED ONLY BERSERK

berserk manga is awesome.
berserk anime is the sucks.


anyway, i think they "banned" it because it has religious stuff in it?

Our gov sure have lots of surprises for people both international and local alike. Reminds me of the anime figure shop raids some time ago.

Betoi!

Hmm.. there are a lot of religious related mangas and I don't see any of them banned.

I wonder if they actually read them first before deciding it's banned. Or did they just go through the covers. Or flip through the pages.

Or maybe the guy checking it actually liked it so much he took your order for himself.

If it's customs, they DO check EVERY pages.

Man.. I need to pray everyday now..
