Adult oriented doujinshi to require proper labelling
A few days ago the Japan Doujinshi Printing Group released new guidelines that all doujin circles that produce adult oriented material have to adhere to or the books will not be accepted for printing. Basically, they need to clearly mark on the cover that it is for adults and provide on the final page of the doujinshi their circle name, contact info, release date, and the name of the printing firm that printed the doujinshi. The reason for needing the information on the final page is because the author will have to take responsibility should any problems arise with the book.
There have always been a lot of adult doujinshi that never had any markings to indicate if they are adult oriented, it is still unclear as to exactly why these guidelines have been announced all of a sudden.
