Gay Dating Sites Face Censorship?

Two girls looking friendly - Tony Taka (T2 Art Works) is a mangaka, illustrator and character designer of uncommon skill, with a notable output of CG, dojinshi and artbooks - トニーは有名なイラストレーター、原画家、キャラクターデザイナー等、同人誌や画集やCGは得意です.jpg

With the recent introduction of mandatory censorship for internet connections, whether by PC or mobile, for minors in Japan, the non-governmental censors now face some difficult situations; no wonder the government wanted this off its hands. The issue raised in this interesting article is whether gay dating sites are to be judged harmful to minors, or to be left alone.

$50 for 5 – Housewife Arrested Over Nude Photos

$50 for 5 – Housewife Arrested Over Nude Photos

A housewife (25) was arrested on suspicion of attempting to sell five obscene pictures of herself, soliciting customers via online forums, we hear. She apparently committed the grievous act of saving five naked photographs of herself onto her memory card, taken with her mobile, and these were seized upon her arrest. She was offering them for ¥5,000 for 5, certainly a high price, but criminally high?

Porn Censors Quit, Harsher Measures to Follow?

JAV Porn Censors Quit, Harsher Measures to Follow?

The industry group in charge of ensuring the minds of adults are not poisoned by seeing other people’s genitals free of excessive pixilation, the “Nihon Ethics of Video Association”, has made it known it will be shutting up shop after a 36 year history of protecting the public from the uncensored filth it so craves.

Hentai Rag Forced to Back Down

Mainichi Daily News WaiWai has made a habit of creatively interpreting and translating stories (falsifying might be more accurate) under the direction of editor Ryann Connell

Ultra lowbrow English language tabloid WaiWai, a part of the Mainichi Daily News and known for its extremely liberal handling of source material in pursuit of page hits (if not outright fictional news), has been forced to back down over its more extreme stories (examples below) thanks to a sustained campaign waged by 2chers and others, which finally began to break through into the mass media. Several of their more egregious stories have now been pulled.

Diet’s Verdict on 2D Loli Ban

"Damn all you lolicon!" - Beako's verdict.

The recent moves to strengthen laws against pornography involving underage participants opted to consider what to do about 2D loli separately, and the Diet has now decided what to do about this – it will ignore the matter for three years, and then decide how (if) to reform the law based on the results of an investigation. This might be considered a skilful dodge of the whole messy issue.

Eroge Mag Strikes Back at Crusader Democrat

A shoolgirl has become tangled up in a rope - This kind of innocent illustration is an example of just the sort of thing which has deranged moralists such as Yoriko Madoka so het up

The editorial staff of adult game magazine PC Angel neo have issued an official statement in response to the call for a ban on adult games, and as might be expected they are rather scathing of it, if in a rather polite and restrained way (though any other sort of statement would doubtless be to cast oil onto the flames).

To Love-Ru DVD Edition Steamier Than TV

To Love-Ru DVD Edition Steamier Than TV

Just as the To Love-Ru manga compilation edition got an H upgrade from the serialised edition, so will the DVD edition of the anime get improved ecchiness. The DVD is due July 25th, so we should not have too long to wait until the inevitable side-by-side comparisons. Some (quite tame) screens at Famitsu.

Internet Censorship Bill Passes

The main meeting hall of the Diet of Japan in Tokyo. Wikimedia image.

The previously discussed efforts to protect the children from the wickedness of the Internet, by censoring their access to it, are set to become law, having passed with the unanimous assent of the House of Representatives (lower house, the one with most of the power); it will go before the House of Councillors next week, and then fully come into effect.

Corpse Carver was Erogame Otaku

Corpse Carver was Erogame Otaku

Takanori Hoshijima, who murdered his neighbour and hacked apart her remains to flush into the sewers, now has an even more odious mark against his name (for the mass media and politicians at least); a close acquaintance of his alleges he “had no interest in girls other than 2D ones” and that after moving to Tokyo he sunk into an obsessive fascination with adult games, such that he lost all interest in any other type of girl.

Soul Calibur IV to Have Strippable Characters ("Armour Battle Damage")

It seems one of the new additions to Soul Calibur IV will be the ability for characters to lose clothing (“armour”) as battle damage. The pictures and videos (below) seem unambiguous in showing a variety of characters, male and female, suffering clothing destruction to varying degrees.

Adult Game Makers Face Mass Bankruptcy?

Adult Game Makers Face Mass Bankruptcy? Taichi Kiriyama

The recent political attacks on the adult game industry seem to have stirred up a hornet’s nest in defence of the eroge makers, but the makers themselves seem to other concerns, claiming their industry is in imminent danger of mass bankruptcy, not due to the depredations of populist politicians, but due to that most reviled nemesis of software developers everywhere, piracy.

Democrats Face Storm For Eroge Ban

You are a criminal (assuming you play eroge and this petition gets through)

“Adult game players have their minds destroyed, they lose their very humanity”. With these words, from the recent petition to ban eroge, and their other initiatives, the Democrats seem to have provoked a storm of protest.

A mountain of such responses as “So shouldn’t AV also be banned?”, “Is there any scientific basis for this?”, “I’m a married woman with children who plays these games” are evident; I’m sure you get the picture, many are very annoyed, and seem more vocal than those advocating the ban (who seem to be limited to DPJ party hacks, strangely enough).

It remains to be seen whether this will truly backfire for the Democrats, although that does seem increasingly possible (not that there was any real chance of success in the first place).
