And that's what you get, Japanese Otaku, for failing to vote in the latest elections.


Do correct me if I'm mistaken here, but I'm under the impression more than half of Japan''s population is people from the old generation? So even if the teens and people under 40 voted against Ishihara, he's still gonna win anyways for having more supporters who share his views. :(

I'm thinking the problem lied within it's low birth rates.

Ishihara Shintaro won the elections with only 43% of the votes...

Well obviously he will resolve everything in the end. Altough I only read for the laughs now. Sora literally fucked the living daylight out of everyone. I would have had a great laugh if he fucked his mother too.

Kissxsis ?

I bet Ishihara's bill will effect kissxsis too shortly. I just don't understand why didn't the publishers move out of Tokyo... they had a half year for it...

The law only bans depictions of sexual behavior involving minors under the age of consent or sexual activity between those whom can't be legally married, Keita and his sisters can be legally married in Japan and the age of consent for sexual activity in Japan is actually 13. Also, the law doesn't apply to media or products labeled 18+ for adult only.

Ah...well in that case (and i'm being hypothetical here), someone should've persuade all the other voters, against Ishihara, to focus theirs on one particular person, just to drive the bastard out. :(

No thanx. To me, fakecest is only incest by name and is no diffrent from your average childhood friend.

*Ekhem* Why incest? I mean, we read something we can't get in reality, right? And that's why we like it. Now i hope we'll see more and more sister/brother rape cases just to be able to say "In your face" while looking at Ishihara.

Two words Koi Kaze. I'm not sure about the manga, but the anime is an example of a high-quality production which has incest as a central theme.

While a Aki-Sora may have little artistic value, the same doesn't hold true for something like Koi Kaze.
Akiba-kei-chan said:

They should adopt AV (alternative vote). with AV, if no candidate gets over 50%, the weakest candidate gets knocked out and the second choice votes for those people who voted for the eliminated candidate are counted instead. The process repeats until there is a winner.

Makes want to vote in favor of such a system even more than I did already.

Hm. I've read this manga for about 6 or so chapters. I didn't like it. Even for manga the story just made me tilt my head and go "WTF"?

However, I am upset about it being canceled like this. Everything's gonna be in for a pretty wild ride over the coming year.

Incest or not. This is against Freedom of Expression.

You can all talk about your rights & wrong when in "reality" there is no one who can define what it really is. We just eat each others head until there's only one left to decide. Let someone else decide for you. Are you really okay with that? Might as well throw your life away.

I am not happy with this decision.

The title of the thread is misleading.The Aki-Sora manga is already completed what's discontinued is the PRINTINGS OF THE MANGA VOLUMES.Manga's itself has ended in the 25th volume of Champion RED Ichigo magazine on April 5.
Also there is still possibility that the manga volumes will be published with an adults-only stamp.

Oh yes, that was a reall close call for YnS. For a moment back then, I actually thought they were gonna have Sora's arc canceled or pull some kinda BS like having Sora friend-zoned like they did in Amagami SS.

Fortunately, the bill wasn't put into effect instantly allowing us to enjoy a whole episode of filled with twincest hentai goodness.

This. i guess Sankaku over-exaggerates things once again?

Metaler said:

And the content wasn't banned entirely. It was restriced: it must not be shown to teens and children. Just like how you can't show blood and gore to kids in videogames. That's why stuff like M and 18+ ratings exist.

i think we all know its very hard to get your stuff to sell when it gets stamped with the 18+ logo. sure there are some but it probably won't be enough to motivate the authors to continue working on their stories.

actually not just manga..literature since Heian already touched on the incestuous theme..just took a course on Japanese literature and and like half of the stuff talked about it lol. imo ishihara's just using this to eliminate the otaku culture given his sexual novels are not in effect >_>

I understand the situation completely.

The question is would something with a high-quality plot and/or genuine artistic merit but little in the way of actual sex sell if it was labelled in the same way as a generic hentai. If it doesn't, then we can say bye-bye to anything that is even slightly controversial, because manga publishers are only interested in money and will refuse to publish things that probably won't sell.

Something like Aki-Sora can survive this, but those are not the kinds of series I am concerned about

I'm more concerned about series like Koi Kaze and Bokurano. Do you think that Narutaru or Bokurano would have sold well enough to have anime adaptations if they had a 18+ label stuck on them along with the kids on the cover, thus implying that they were child pornography as a result? I certainly don't, and that is where the problem with this ordinance bill lies.

According to the twitter of Itosugi Masahiro, the first and the third volumes of manga Aki-Sora will be discontinued this July. Itosugi said those volumes have been censored due to the descriptions of incest. He stressed that obscenity was not the reason for the censorship.

He said it's a great loss for the manga culture that one of the motifs has been banned as a result of the Tokyo's ordinance.

I think he meant to say that explicit sexual content was not the reason for censorship. Obscenity is becoming more ambiguous thanks to politicians like Isihara and the elderly who vote for him...

Ishihara wants to destroy everything otaku and gaming related, maybe instead of a manga you like, he may go for a game you like next, do not say nothing of value is lost if Ishihara is to blame (even indirectly), because he will make sure you lose everything of value even if it takes 30 years.
