I don't know how Japan's laws work, but it's safe to say they're seriously f'd up if they allow someone to marry a fictional cartoon character.

Article on boing boing says there was a live priest there, as well as a church congregation.

He probably did unspeakable things to his DS that are not suitable for posting on this forum.

It's going to be weird if she gets pregnant. I don't even know if animated characters get good health care in Japan. Maybe they'll move to the U.S. if the bill gets passed here.

I think animated characters only receive gov't health care if a giant mech/alien injuries them.

I wonder if DSs actually do that....

This story is just disturbing and wrong. Some guys need to man up and go find a real woman. It's sad.

Psychonaut · 12-17-2009, 08:20 PM

Ohhhh, what's going to happen if she catches him with another game? I hope she's prepared to take on Chun-Li!

I used to love beating the çrap out of Chun Li in SFII. She was usually the most rewarding to defeat, aside from a skilled Ryu or Ken opponent.
