  What does matter is that there was no actual crime taking place by simply owning the art, and if the courts rule against him, there will be the creation of a new, unjust law.


"new" as in 6 years ago?




US Supreme Court Protect Act of 2003:

Sec. 1466A. Obscene visual representations of the sexual abuse of children
(a) IN GENERAL- Any person who, in a circumstance described in subsection (d), knowingly produces, distributes, receives, or possesses with intent to distribute, a visual depiction of any kind, including a drawing, cartoon, sculpture, or painting, that–
(1)(A) depicts a minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct; and
(B) is obscene; or
(2)(A) depicts an image that is, or appears to be, of a minor engaging in graphic bestiality, sadistic or masochistic abuse, or sexual intercourse, including genital-genital, oral-genital, anal-genital, or oral-anal, whether between persons of the same or opposite sex; and
(B) lacks serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value;
or attempts or conspires to do so, shall be subject to the penalties provided in section 2252A(b)(1), including the penalties provided for cases involving a prior conviction.

So the feds could bust in my door one day and arrest me for all the guro and other weird sh*t I have on my computer?  That law is stupid.  No one gets hurt when it is drawn and fictional.  Books like Lolita are out there but the minute it gets turned into pictures people start freaking out.

I didn't like the second season as much as the first one, but it was still pretty good. The animation was definitely better in the second season.

I wonder how many years it'll take them to translate the original Higurashi visual novels...


I think it depends on what you like that determines what season you like better.  Season one was full of mystery and violence while season two was full of revelations and Rika being awesome  :il_hahaha: I'm torn between the two really.  Season two was what really made Rika my favorite character but season one was much more violent.


Also anyone know when the third series is coming out?

Am I the only one that thinks this guys plight is just a little bit funny? A guy cant settle for having to use the internet to see quadruple amputee newborns being raped, he has to import the actual manga itself and then gets v& for all of his trouble.
Well, actually, it's hilarious.  But in case I ever want to buy a hard copy of the babyfuck manga, I'll be donating to the cause.

 :il_hahaha: I have it downloaded on my computer. 

Anyways I really don't see the problem with owning something drawn. No one was hurt in the making of it and all the guro/loli/shota people I know would NEVER do anything to real little kids.  In case they haven't noticed anime kids look nothing like real kids.  I just hope the fbi doesn't bust open my dorm door and find all my guro  :h_embarassed:

Oh boy let's hope the fbi doesn't ever find my computer  :il_hahaha:

but seriously even if the guy does have some form of lolicon/shota last time I checked drawn images were okay.  I mean why wouldn't they be?  I wish they would actually report what the guy had instead of jumping around the subject like that.

I can't wait until the novels are released  :elhail:  Yen Press has the rights to it and to the higurashi manga (but tears because as far as I know no one has picked up the kyo kara maoh novels)

but I'm getting off topic, I'm suprised there's no info about a second season. You think such a popular series would have some.

The first volume of the manga has just been released anyone picked it up yet?  ANN gave it a bad review so I'm not too sure if I want to spend money on it considering I own the anime and the novels are gonna be released (right?)

Been watching Candy Boy.  An ONA about two twin sisters who just started college and are VERY close.  It's pretty good although the shoujo-ai incest stuff might weird people out. I love it  :lordilsmile:
