The people who stop me is my mom. I'm actually 14, but I look like a college student, so as long as I keep it from my mom I'm safe...

Do you realize that, in Portugal, it's actually illegal to sell the Dragon Ball manga to people under 13? It's not just a warning, it's like the cigarette law. My kid brother would be outta luck.

neva, im only 13 n ive bought lots 18+ manga before, but my mom dosent noe its 18+, ... o well

[Ceipheed]

I'm 16 and my mom really doesn't agree with me buying anime. She says it's a total waste of money and time
*but i never listen to her anyway ....hehe*
I normally buy it when she's not around and sneak it back home and hide the receipts
The shops i go too don't really mind as long as you're paying for it. good for me!!!!

I've been into anime ever since I was 10 and I'm 18 now and not once did I get stop from buying 13+ mangas. My parents don't care what I buy, they bought me rated mature stuff. And they know it to!

[sakura405]

No i haven't but.. i was once at this chinese store that sold anime and manga dvds.. i accidentally looked at a cd that as 18+ and the lady got pissed off... but i usually get away with buying 16+ stuff... i am pretty close to those ages tho.. 14

[Saiyan Master Vegeta]

I've never been stopped from buying Anime/Manga but if someone did stop me i would just put up an arguement or get someone older to buy it for me then pay them back! It's that simple!

[Wafflemon]

i'm 11 (but i'm turning 12 soon! xp ) sweatdrop sweatdrop sweatdrop and i have not been stopped from buying anime/manga thats 13+ (or other ratings) cuz most of the time my mom buys it or is with me and my parents don't really care what i buy......(it's a good thing my mom is with me most of the time cuz i'm short for my age and i kind of look like a little kid xd sweatdrop )

[[Kaiba--chan]]

the only people who would (and almost) stop(ed) me are my parents but theyre easy to persuade so............ no

[Lucidly]

nope,i got to buy a graphic novel for older teens like round 17-20 years

[Solar]

A question. If CCS doujin is potentially damn illegal here in America, why do the people selling it at cons care how old you are? ^^;;;

[[Ranko]]

I've been in love with anime for 10 years. I'm 17.

[the_paige]

Nope, whee ! Yeah, I'm 17, but I still didn't get pulled over at 13... cause even then I looked like I was in college biggrin !

[Silver_mercurious]

well i have never been stoped but really the book stores dont really care who buys what book they are just happy to have someone to buy from them so they get money

[KnightoftheRose]

I'm 18 so nope. I usually buy within my age limit, not because it's against the law or anything but because during those ages I was interested in just that stuff. Odd I know.

[Chibish]

I haven't, yet. I'm only 11, and they [The store clerks] allow me to buy 13+ or 17+ mangas...
