| The executive committee of Comiket 83 has announced on the official website that they will prohibit all the Kuroko no Basket-related circles from participating in Comiket 83 due to the threatening letter sent to the committee. The representatives of the committee said this was a regrettable decision but the police strongly requested not to allow KuroBas circles to attend the event. Distribution of KuroBas-related goods and dojinshi by other circles was also prohibited. As a consequence of the series of threatening letter cases, many official and dojin events have been canceled including KuroBas live event at Jump Festa. Source: Comiket 83 official website |

| That's such bull. I really hope the freak that sent those threats gets caught so this crap can end. |
| WHY ATTACK THE DOUJINSSSSSSSSSSS????? DON'T MAKE ME GO, 'DOUUUUUUUSHITEEEEEEEEEEEEEE' |
 |
| And so a small group off people ruines the fun for a bigger group who just wants to enjoy the series and merchandise. What a noble act.... |
| Drive fujoshi mad. |
| These are the people who just love to screw things up for everyone, huh. |

| Well, at least they didn't threaten the Touhou doujinshi. I'd have to put together a counter-terrorist unit if something like that happened. |
 |
| I'm seriously going to cry. Goodbye, high chances of KnB Season 2. |

| Oh shit. Doesn't concern me at all, but it's a shame that one fanatic idiot can cause such a huge commotion. Hopefully he's caught soon and gets his ass into jail. And I thought, I take anime too serious |
 |
| Seriously, I WANT TO CRYYYYYY.... :,( I can't bear to see one of my favorite series being affected like this. All events related to Kurobasu gets cancelled. I hope the police will catch the culprit soon. This is so damn depressing.I don't want this to lead the series to being cancelled. PLEASE JUST DON'T. |

The fujoshi are going to murder this guy if the police don't get to him first. I just get that feeling. endless_nine_09 said: This is so damn depressing.I don't want this to lead the series to being cancelled. PLEASE JUST DON'T. Fujimaki already said he will continue regardless so the manga won't get canceled or put on hiatus, but the anime might be affected for a while until the guy is caught. I just hope Production I.G don't let this cash cow slip away after the person gets canned. |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| Bullshit. Why not just fucking ignore the fucking threat letters? ITS NOT LIKE SOMETHING WILL HAPPEN. NOTHING WILL HAPPEN. You are just making the retarded sender happy with that action. The sender can't do shit except send threat letters so why not just ignore the threat letters? Fuck. CrowLia said: ^Exactly.A round of applause for these people for giving in to a childish terrorist's demands instead of putting more money into people's safety. Edit: And another one to the police. Because putting an online pirate in jail takes 2 days and catching this psycho has been impossible in 6 months |
| To all the people saying "ignore him", in the past he has sent letters to events with samples of dangerous chemicals. It would be neglectful to ignore it. |

| i can't believe this is happening to a series like kuro no baske |
doeman said: i can't believe this is happening to a series like kuro no baske Ye, it's so sad. |
| So... It's 2012 and a single guy can basically threaten a 120-million country with some letters? I wonder if it's a big deal for the japanese general public/media? |
| Rofl |

| For god´s sake, this is the most stupid decision I ever saw. Instead of showing they´re not afraid, they´re giving power to the arsole who sent the letters who is now celebrating happily while other people who spent the whole year drawing and writing KuroBas doujin to sell, and others who spent the whole year waiting to buy it have now to return home with empty hands. Oh darn this stupid world. |

| The reason they are "giving in" is because the guy has previously sent actual harmful materials to places and people. Because of that, he's being considered a legitimate terrorist and real threat - he may only have had tiny amounts but you never know and it's not worth risking in such a hard to watch over facility with so many people...and that really applies to the other events as well. If it was just notes threatening things they wouldn't cave - but the guy has shown he's serious enough that they can't risk it. It's not about them being pussies or whatever - it's about them realizing "that guy sent shit that can kill people to a school, so I'm pretty sure he'd do the same to a bunch of otaku and fujoshi too." |

cottoncandy7 said: "STOP ENJOYING THINGS/STOP LIKING WHAT I DON'T LIKE" at its finest. I just don't get WHY Kuroko no Basket. The manga is pretty much average so it might be personal. If you actually read anything about this stuff you'd know why. The person has a personal grudge against the mangaka from when they went to school together. |

| I can't believe the police just gave in to terrorism. Now what's gonna stop others from imitating this criminal since the police, indirectly just said this sort of terrorism is effective. Honestly a very dumb move on the police's end. One should never give in to terrorism no matter how big or small. |

Now what's gonna stop others from imitating this criminal since the police, indirectly just said this sort of terrorism is effective. Honestly a very dumb move on the police's end. Police aren't the American government. Since when did police purposefully put people in danger to make anti-terrorism statements? Never. Not in any country. Especially not when they are in a situation that (for some reason) they can't find the suspect. Hell, in the US chances are the entirety of Comiket would be shut down because of this. Anime Expo almost entirely got closed down last year because a random box was left in the food court (obviously, it was harmless merch forgotten under a table) because OH GOD IT MIGHT BE A BOOOOMB. All over a random box under a food court desk at a place known for merchandise and idiots and NOT for exploding things. phoenixalia said: all the same, how long is this gonna go on then? Just cancelling every other event is not gonna make the terrorist back down. It'll only encourage him to attack bigger events. So while they're protecting the fujoshi and otaku(which, I admit, is the most important thing), they're only giving the culprit more confidence. Just think: what started as one small event being cancelled has lead to over 20 events begin cancelled. Protect the fujoshi and otaku, I'm not saying no. But that doesn't mean they shouldn't investigate on this culprit. If they are investigating now, well, its not enough. How long has it taken them to try and catch one guy now? 2 months? Or is normal that these kinds of psychos take a long time to be put in prison? They are trying to find him, of course. But things like this take time and apparently when it's the Japanese police it takes a LOT of time. I can't believe with all his notes and even sneaking in material to places he hasn't been caught. He's either very smart or the police are very stupid. Though yes, the guy is likely feeling great and powerful - but that's when criminals get dumb, so it'll end soon enough. He'll get full of himself and start taking bigger risks that aren't necessary because he'll think he's bulletproof. It's not something the police are letting happen on purpose - but at least at some point he'll get caught and this will stop. It's a shit situation but there's only so much a police department can do in a situation like this aside take security measures and slowly investigate. |

| How retarded is this? seriously? they're gonna stop circles that barely make up 2-3% of comiket because some idiot sent some fake threatening letters? That's dumb. endless_nine_09 said: I don't want this to lead the series to being cancelled. PLEASE JUST DON'T. It won't affect the series in any way, it's just fan arts. doeman said: i can't believe this is happening to a series like kuro no baske Ha, at least it didn't happen to something like TOUHOU or vocaloid, the Otaku'll go apeshit on the whole world. |

I think they just meant the threats in general keeping the studio from making another season - not this specific threat. Sadly, it's a possibility - there's no way they weren't planning on continuing the show, and it did great, but with something like this they studio or producer might back out. At least until he's caught...but then they might not want to spend the money on continuing it. |

| Ouch man, way to ruin the fun for those kurobasu fujoshi out there. zetsuboSensei said: I can sense the fujoshis' flaming eyes far, far away. lol |
As it turns out, living was a punishment...  |

| Who ever said letters of complaint have no effect? Just have to make them extra convincing. What's A-1's address? |
     |
| That's too bad. But that's still better than without and that guy doing something horrible again. |
| Wow >_> Hopefully these letters won't affect the actual series itself... |

| HOOOORAYYYYYYYYYYY Slam Dunk > Kuroku |
| Actually glad that nepal is facing disaster |

| I can't imagine how a basketball series can get threats. And it is such a good series too .-. |
