I live in China and yes, this news was everywhere. The reason why she was sent to jail is because appearently her work was very explicit and graphic, mind you, porn is banned in China. To the authorities and the government, her work was pornographic; she was "breaking" the law... which is a extremely tragic. Her sentence is as long as what rapists get here. ):
Well you see, Japan is also quite conservative but they would never send an author to jail just because of something she/he wrote. In terms of being logical,Japan is advanced and China is shit (︶︿︶)=凸
This whole time I was thinking "If He Tian's so tall and his brother is even taller,how fucking tall is he?!"
Oops! By mistake I replied
Cant Old Xian just move to other country? Its better if she's. Then i can finally see He Tian and Mo kissing.
Did you guys hear about the Chinese BL author who got sentenced to 10 years in prison for her BL novel? I knew China was conservative and didn't support homosexuality, but I didn't know they were so cruel as to imprison authors/artists of BL work. Makes me worried for this manwha as it feels like we will never get the romance we want so bad for this story. But I mean isn't Here U Are a Chinese comic? So maybe there is hope....
