oh noes!
give me a break, this is news because its incredibly rare. until a list of like-treated authors is provided I must say… w/e… In America erotic comics are still legally suppressed, the outlets for such art is small boxes at cons and only the rare risk-taking comic book stores. Though the law is sporadically enforced, it is vaguely worded and allows for catastrophic penatlies - even publishers of erotic art just will not publish content common in Japan.

The censorship law is a big joke. The pixelation and little black stripes dosn’t really do much, I think they should stop pretending and just drop the stupid law.

Oh boy! Here’s comes the crackdown that will snowball into a moral panic! Goodbye, all erotic art in Japan! It was nice knowing you!

Seems like those recent rumblings over increased enforcement of censorship on doujinshi artists are real. The art we know and love is being threatened!
