Funny how boobies and nipples wouldn't grant a PG-13 rating in France. :p
There are some laws about what you can and cannot show in a "publication for young readers" (and it's essentially about press, I thing), but usually, as long as you don't show genitals, you can get away with a lot of things. Oooo nipple, nipple, marvelous thing which delights the ones and terrifies the others. ;))

So, does volume 1 coming out mean we're gonna get a cast page?
Pointless arguing is one of the three pillars upon which the Internet is built. The other two are of course cat pictures and porn.

I found a blog post about that, namely about the US publication of Sillage (Wake, in English): European Filth Merchants

Print Volume Extras

Post by Spidrift »

I've now got the PDF of the first print volume, which has the usual sort of extras. The chapter splash pages are very nice, although chapter 2's is rather heavy fanservice, but the main thing would be the bonus story - which is actually rather good. even if it does raise the question of why Sandra apparently sleeps in a bikini. It's nice to see Domenico probably suffering some consequences for his bright idea, and Tatiana actually kind of winning in the end but not at Sandra's expense.

Oh, and Zoé's butt is very nice. And she could probably crack walnuts with it.

Merged here.

Just got my books, and got to say, I love the postcard, done up like magazine covers.

Yeah, what he said. ^ I had the exact same thing happen to me once, during my holidays, and I know how godawful it is. Hope your hand gets better soon!

Hey, Eisu. Wishing you a quick recovery. Treat that golden thumb like it’s platinum until it’s better.
