Italy is to apply a punitive 25% tax on pornography, ostensibly to support its economic plan to head off recession. What is and is not to be subjected to the tax is to be determined solely by the state.
UNICEF: Japanese Anime & Manga Poison the World

Well known censorship advocacy group UNICEF accuses Japan of turning the rest of the world into lolicon child abusers and so demands harsh censorship measures be implemented, in their latest hateful tirade delivered at the world conference we heard of previously:

Japan’s Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications is considering implementing a system whereby visitors to a list of government proscribed sites would have their access restricted to a warning message, in much the same way as with China and elsewhere.
Their ostensible aim is a crackdown on sites serving pornography featuring underage participants.

Prefecture Banning Ero-Shoujo Manga as “Harmful”
- Filed under: H, Manga, News
- Date: Oct 30, 2008 03:49 JST

The Okayama prefectural government has been drastically tightening restrictions on the sale of manga it has designated “harmful”, with a great many such titles being “ladies’ comics”, essentially erotic shoujo manga, usually targeting a slightly older demographic.
- Artefact commented on November 21, 2008 01:16

Pro-Lolicon Law Demanded by Politician

- Tags: Censorship, Delicious Cake, Diet, Law, Lolicon, Otaku, Politics, Social Democrats
The recycled petition for an adult game and anime ban prepared for the Diet’s attention recently seems to be not the only such petition readied; unusually, we hear of another petition demanding action on loli porn, but this one is in support of freedom of expression, seeking full legal recognition rather than a ban.

Another petition has been put before the Diet, once again demanding a ban on the sale and production of “bishoujo adult anime magazines and adult simulation games”, or ero-anime, ero-manga and eroge in normal language, this time with 10,000 signatures.

A character “closely resembling” the Prime Minister of Japan, Taro Aso, a man noted for his otaku proclivities, is set to appear in an upcoming “weapon girl love adventure game”, or eroge to the rest of us. It’s not clear just how “active” his role is to be.

Anime School Swimwear Ban Demanded

The Japanese arm of moral crusader group UNICEF is pushing for a ban on all depictions of minors in “sexual” poses, with swimwear in anime mentioned specifically, a move which would have devastating effects on the world of anime, manga and games.
Some truly enlightened sporting events seem to exist in Japan; here we see what could easily be confused with some of the recreational activities so popular with schoolchildren, but in fact is a sporting event, rather than some public ambulatory copulation, which would be a novelty even in Japan.
The rules are not clear, but it is likely a race of some description…
