I did enjoy maria-holic but not much beyond that.... its still a little creepy to me, in some cases its hard enough for me to stand most male characters already having super huge eyes and being ultra "kawaii", i mean you can literally switch their clothes out with a school girl uniform style hair and done, a trap.

This is the first time I've heard of the manga but that's not saying much. I am happy to see non-heterosexual topics in mangas flourish and grow in understanding in the manga reading audience. It's sad to see this go on hiatus. Hopefully they'll come back because the manga market definitely needs more manga where the gender barrier is pushed and crossed in addition to the sexual orientation scale.

No, it has more to due with Tokyo proposing sweeping, as well as legaly vague, changes to national laws.

Even if these trap mags feature no "porn", among the language in the laws is that communities can effectively interept what is or isn't "harmful to youths", so folding your business before the falling off a legal cliff is a smart financial move.
