It seems that there is absolutely no mention of all the pornographic hentai Shirow has made. Is it because Americans are simply ignorant, or fans fear this will sully the authors more cerebral philisophical work?

  • NOTE* I added information that Shirow is also a hentai artist, but someone edited it out. I have added it once more. If someone thinks it shouldn't be mentioned (despite the fact that it is true), then they should explain why here, rather then editing the data out.

Would anyone mind adding the kanji for his real name? I can't find it. --138.238.96.38 02:15, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Heck, where di you find his real name to begin with? --Ray Radlein 06:27, Mar 12, 2005 (UTC)
