Why is Ken Akamatsu constantly referred to as "Ken"? Since when are we all on such good terms with him? Ken Akamatsu, Mr. Akamatsu, or Akamatsu-sensei would be more appropriate. Also I believe that "country language" means he graduated in Japanese Literature.
Manga writers are called "Sensei". This is an appropriate title, no different than calling someone Mister or Doctor. This is not unusual in Japan. In fact if you ever asked him for his signature, it would be far better to say "sensei" than just "Akamatsu-san". This is not at all "POV". Its called being polite and giving respect. (How is calling him "Ken" a POV anyway? It's just strange, like calling President George Bush, "George" all the time.)
Dear User:Sn0wflake,
Shut up. Don't act like you are his father/mother or something. For all you know, Akamatsu-samma might actually like being called so.

I really doubt ken cares too much for honorifics, well maybe Japanese people, since they follow their standards to the top, also remember that the people who wrote the article are not even probably from japan. well who knows?, of course they should add something like 'Mister Ken' well something respectable . -- David Gonzalez 02:49, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
We should all just call him Akamatsu. Wikipedia does it for every other person with an article.
Do any heterosexual women like Ken Akamatsu's manga? Or does it only appeal to men? JRSpriggs 04:35, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
I changed this listing to the correct name for Akamatsu's wife. Her name's not Yuka Shiraishi, but she does choose to publicly go by the given name of Kanon. In accordance with her wishes I won't list her actual given name here. That can be saved for a future page featuring her specifically, should she come to be encyclopedically interesting enough to justify her own article on wikipedia. -- Cortana 16:04, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
