Welcome to Bootleg News Reporter
A world dedicated to anime, manga, and Japanese news found on the web, so you don't have to go to more than one site.

Since the news being presented here is from other sites, they are not my original work and all credit goes to the original author. I'm really bootleging information, thus this world's title.

US Navy + manga for Japan = No fair!

The United States Navy has just confirmed that approximately 30,000 copies of a promotional manga they developed to explain their mission (along with nuclear aircraft carriers) have been printed and are ready for distribution.

The manga, called "CVN-73" is focused around a Japanese-American sailor named Jack Ohara who is on his first assignment on an aircraft carrier. The American military is hoping that it will ease the tension later this year when the nuclear aircraft carrier USS George Washington CVN-73 becomes the first nuclear-powered carrier based in the US naval base in Yokosuka. Japanese citizens groups have been testy over the ship's power supply, but the manga indirectly states that "the heart of the GW has a 50-year life span and doesn't need refueling."
