Kouji: I'm guessing that, while it's technically not illegal, there is no law which protects it from prosecution.

I dont remember anyone actually BEING underaged in the movie... but it was quite a while ago that I watched it so I could be forgetting..

But thanks to this mess up you can buy it for $1.99 in the bargin bins - nobody wants this version anymore.

I like John. He's a nice guy. But that line is really suspect in my view. I mean, when was the last time "Uncensored and Uncut" was NOT meant at least as a potential selling point?


Some US Congressional thingy on Morality, I dunno.

So where am I gonna get my Pedobear approved loli fix now?! DAMN YOU KITTY!!


Nearly every domestic hentai distributor has released multiple titles that could be considered to have lolicon content. The only one I can't recall releasing anything loli-ish was Softcel, but I was never terribly familiar with their lineup, so I could be forgetting something.


Sarcasm, do you understand it?

They can do what H-game licencers do and just state that "All characters are at least 18 years old" on the cornor of the box

You'll be reaching for the stars, but nothing can touch you at that point


Well, sometimes that's true, however unbelievable it is. Just look at Daiakuji, which I believe was licensed. I wonder if the Japanese creators preemptively decided to make the loli 18 so they could sell it overseas.




Eat that, Chris Hansen.

She's not a midget, she's just small-boned... and undeveloped... and short.

Anyways, the best is those licensed H-games, where every character is over 18... and they're still attending high school.

It's entirely possible to be a high school senior and be 18. It's possible to be 18 at a lower grade than that as well, though it is uncommon. Hell, in my highschool we had a sophomore who was 18 (meaning he would have been 20 when he graduated).

The problem is that the law is vague and seemingly contradictory at points.
