According to Yomiuri, members of Fukuoka Prefectural Assembly have been accused of spending public money for the policy affair research on irrelevant books including porn novels. Among them, Takahashi Masanari, 52 year old assemblyman, was found to have purchased Toaru Majutsu no Index vol.19 and Iruma Hitoma's light novel Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko vol.3. The assemblyman made an excuse that it was a legitimate expense to research the current trend of the world.

now thats a good one


My thoughts exactly. What a Japanese lightnovel in a more or less fantasy setting has to do with the trend of the world is beyond me.

Behind every dark cloud there is a silver lining.

It's a good way of spending money, as long as he wasn't doing it only for the lolis.
