Controversial Manga Banned in Schools Over Violent Content
In Horry County, South Carolina, a school district decided to remove Yusei Matsui’s “Assassination Classroom” from its school libraries on November 15th, following a complaint about the graphic content in the series. The objection was raised by a mother of a ninth-grader who found scenes showing weapons like handguns, rifles, knives, and potions, as well as young female characters wearing lingerie, to be inappropriate.
