JAPAN BANS NEARLY EVERY THEME IN ADULT GAMES

[Sub Tank]

The EOCS adult game censorship regulations imposed in response to feminist criticism have finally been revealed in detail, and it seems they are shockingly draconian, practically banning all pictures and text which stray from the missionary position.

Not just [twin slasher] and loli are now banned; all group sex, kinkiness and anything else which might cause trouble or offence is banned, whether in pictures or text; it is difficult to characterise such a sweeping ban as anything but a complete victory for opponents of freedom of expression and sexuality.

The full list of what is now completely off limits to adult games published through traditional channels:

[twin slasher]

   Loli

   Gang [twin slasher]

   Assault

   Brutality

   "Reverse" [twin slasher]

   Girl

   Adultery

   "Reverse" Assault

   Compulsion

   Gangbang

   Student Council

   Bestiality

   Bondage

   Coercion

   Train Molestation

   Enjo Kousai (Prostitution)

   Incest

   Torture

   Binding

   Pregnancy

   Violation

   Slaves

   Pregnant Women

   Confinement

   Conception

The ban covers all pictures, text, packaging and even the names of the publishers themselves.

Euphemisms are also banned, and the list will be added to as required. It seems the only major omission is homosexuality; it is also not clear whether the ban on pregnancy and conception means games must now feature obligatory contraception...

The source is a publisher quoting the EOCS guidelines for the benefit of their own partners, so it is still not a direct announcement, but seems as close to one as can be expected. This also confirms the previous publisher misgivings that a game featuring nekomimi and consensual pregnancy would be banned under the new regulations.

Details of how this may affect publishers and retail channels are covered in the previous articles, suffice to say it seems the retail trade in such games will be undergoing a severe contraction.

With such a spectacular success in censoring so broad an array of deviancy, it seems only a matter of time before a similar assault is launched against anime and manga, to say nothing of the wider pornography industry...

I got this from www.sankakucomplex MAYBE DOT COM, but I can't post the full link because the very first picture is some girl tied up in a chair with nipple clamps on her boobs and something going into her butt.

But anyway, on to the main topic...

WHY JAPAN

WHY

[Klavier Gavin]

Japan without all the [twin slasher] and what not?

WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO?!?! D:

[Sky Child]

you know what this leaves?

consensual sex between a man and a woman in the missionary position.

[Sub Tank]

Not if she's pregnant.

[Protoman Blues]

Student Council? 

[Gaia]

So Japan wants to be pure, "like the states". My guess is that American religion's involved. and isin't gang crime a more "important threat" than this?  

Or it could be protestant parents.

[Sub Tank]

Student Council? 

Who knows.  Some of those are direct translations, which is why "girl" is up there.  I have no idea what that could possibly mean, but I think I'm going to miss it.

[Sky Child]

flame will be displeased. they banned catgirls.

[Zx]

 "Reverse" [twin slasher]...? That's new to me.

[Protoman Blues]

Must be, cause I'd imagine that Coercion & Compulsion were merely flirting!

[Sky Child]

girl = yuri
student council = after school [twin slasher]/secks


i think :L

[Sub Tank]

"Reverse" [twin slasher]...? That's new to me.

I think that's when it's a girl doing it to a guy.

Bummer.

[Gaia]

Ah well, I still think it's the overly strict paranoia of parents that seem to get in the way when it comes to these things, they thought it was a good idea to follow a code and ban nearly everything that makes an adult game what it is, now.. adult games would only be looking up skirts an the like. Oh well, at least we get the ripped sprites of Doki Doki Majho Shinipan to enjoy our secret desires.

[Jericho]

And all of Akihabara burns down in 3... 2...

Wait, Soviet Russia's banned too? O_O

FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU

[Satoryu]

i blame Obama.

[Jericho]

You know I find something hilarious with that "girl" mention. If that means that yuri is gone, then why isn't yaoi gone too? Think about that. 

[Gaia]

It's prolly gonna make yaoi harder to do, basically.

[Rock Bomb]

This sounds fake.

[Satoryu]

It's prolly gonna make yaoi harder to do, basically.

is that supposed to be a [ray splasher] joke?

[Gaia]

Well, what if it was? I'm not good at telling [ray splasher] jokes at all anyway.

[Jericho]

I lol'd, but for different reasons.

[Night]

The women were the ones protesting right? Figures they'd leave the one thing they like alone and go after everything else...

Pick and choose....pick and choose....

[Jericho]

Watch out for landmines Night. That's a fine line being straddled.

[borockman]

Lol wut?

Japan is not Japan anymore? 

Well, as long as Doujinshi manga is save...
