I read somewhere that a politician in Japan was trying to remove porn censorship laws in Japan and made me think that maybe some people prefer to watch hentai censored. So I wanted to ask the wise members of Mal

Do you think that hentai will be less appealing to you if it is uncensored?

...no, I don't. I don't agree with it, but I know some people have made the argument that censorship helps with ecchi because it leaves more to the imagination, but I can't imagine why anybody would want that to be the case with hentai. Or any porn in general, really.

Nah, my dick is also pixelated, so the censoring helps with the immersion.

The Japanese people are known to have a small penis, so it could really be the reason. They are ashamed of their size, but still want to watch hentai and the best way to satisfy themselves is the censored hentai. Yes, it is.

You're absolutely right. What's the point of watching it if its censored? At that point its just softcore stuffs you can find anywhere. lmao

Nah, the censoring is just due to an antiquated law that probably won't be repealed for at least 20 years because of parents groups, which are more powerful in Japan than elsewhere.

I don't watch pornography anymore but one of the appeals of Japanese adult videos was due to the censorship it was almost as if the stories were more creative just to compensate. American videos were always simple stories like, "the plumber has come to lay pipe" or "the pizza delivery guy is here to deliver with extra sausage." Basic, uninspired stories. Hentai and JAV were 3 hour long Epics, insane categories, and more variety .

Nope. That's why I feel like ecchi is better. I'd rather just imagine it instead of having to see those jarring pixels that pull you out of the experience.

Stuff like Aki-Sora is much more my speed since they leave just enough to the imagination to make it easy to fill in the blanks.

Nope, I always prefer uncensored if available. Mosaic's annoying af.

I f-cking hate censored hentai. Every time I find some nice stuff - it just has to be censored.

My life is tragic and full of hardships.

I don't know what the hell censoring is for anyway, I mean considdering the content and the target audience, it's just kind of useless.

It's part of the authentic Japanese watching experience, so it is a must for me.
I love these threads. Anime is my life, and I love rating it.

Big time. I hate seeing someone give a pixelated blowjob. Or putting their penis into a mound of pixels. You can use your imagination any old day of the week, let us have it when it counts! LOL!

Maybe, there are a lot of weird people in this world after all, for example like the type who enjoy Hentai.

Hell yeah! everyone knows mosaic pixels are sexy. Gotta love that hot blur on blur action.

Actually, I think I came across one where the characters themselves referenced their own censorship. I think stuff like that, where the characters are self-aware of their own censorship is the only time I don't mind it...But that's literally the only time I've seen anything like that in hentai...

The fact that some shots are up close shots of "action" happening, and all you see is the mosaic censorship, what's the point at that point?
