You said Bleach twice (Although it is pretty violent) but yeah, it would ban pretty much all anime ever.

Hell, even in Lucky Star, a show about a bunch of regular school girls in their daily lives, has sexual themes and some violence.
this is terrible what ab-oh no ranma 1/2 its sexual and violent NO! someone ANYONE PLEASE tell me this is a big BIG joke.

I think I'm going to kill myself...

There is that scene in episode 6 where they're at the beach, Miyuki is wearing a two piece bikini, so that might just get the whole series banned (then again the manga is the only part that is still going on)
This rule is so unfair so theres gonna be no fighting in anime but in those rubbish cartoons theres is fightining allowed Angry

No, it is real. It is the Youth Ordinance Bill 156.

Described by ANN as:


The current ordinance already prevents the sale and renting of "harmful publications" — materials that are "sexually stimulating, encourages cruelty, and/or may compel suicide or criminal behavior" to people under the age of 18. Bill 156 would require the industry to also regulate "manga, anime, and other images (except for real-life photography)" that "unjustifiably glorify or exaggerate" certain sexual or pseudo sexual acts. Another section of the revised bill would allow the government to directly regulate the above images if the depicted acts are also "considered to be excessively disrupting of social order" such as rape.


Doesn't sound that bad when you don't have ignorant nonsense spread around as fact. It really just sounds that they're going after torture porn and the like (which may mean Highschool of the Dead is gone, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make), so like Gantz may be in trouble? Oh well.

By the way, these regulation guidelines went into effect April 1. Did anyone notice a sharp decline in violence in anime this season? Because I certainly didn't.

But nah, let's not talk facts let's talk about how anime is some obscure snob teenage and adult only form of expression that is sacred and shouldn't be touched in anyway. Let's just forget the fact that this,this and this are all anime. But nah, those can't be anime because they don't have sex, and violence, those are only for babies, that isn't anime! Let's forget that the term "anime" is just Japanese for animation, a term that doesn't describe genre, tone, or target audience, but rather just a medium of expression for everyone.

You know what I wish I could forget? This thread. The ignorance and stereotyping just tells me how far Japan's pop culture has failed in actually conveying what it really means.

I didn't notice any inappropriate scenes in Lucky Star except for in episode 6. During the whole bath scene. Other than that, the series is pretty clean. Then again, I still have to finish the series. Tongue_out
no more kissxsis damn.... Dx lol but yea without violence,gore,sexual content or adult scenes i call that cartoons Uncertain
Rosario+Vampire is dead if this passes and kiss fanservice buh bye D: NO MORE MIKURU!!!!
C'mon, they buy Yaoi mangas, one of the character is always complexed about the size of her breasts and they play mildly violent video games.

This is obviously the most +18 Anime ever. Hellsing and Higurashi got nothing on Lucky Star, man.

Add Green Green and HOTD, and Lucky☆Star looks like it's for kindergarten age kids.

Rofl. XD

What's Yaoi? I've heard this term many times but still haven't found out what it is. And I'm afraid to google it after my friend mentioned the H-Anime word and I google it to find out what it was. (That was so gross!! Angry)

Yaoi = Man on man
Yuri = woman on woman
Henti = man on woman

Now you know about anime!

You forgot an A.

I just realized that Green Green (That Anime Nano watches) Is an H-Anime....
Green Green is more ecchi, and with a cactus...

And there is also sub-genres I don't want to get into.

Apparently Death Note has an Ecchi scene. (At least in the Manga, anyways...) XD
The new law is for purchasing anime/manga
18+ and kid anime/manga is located in the same area in japan.
18+ stuff just has a sign/paper that covers the box art.
Like Naruto would be next to "insert hentai manga title here" if there both be began with NA

The new law pretty much states that 18+ has to be in a separate room/section then the clean stuff.
