The Anime is Japanese, right ? Why would you report it using UK or US laws ? UK and USA can decide to not import that product, but that's it. Majority of the anime you ever saw hasn't been intended to be distributed outside Japan and you are probably watching a illegal copy, which obviously includes hentai.Īs for actually watching the stuff - well, if you are arrested for any other crime I bet they will use it against you as well as virtually anything you ever got, but apart author's right it isn't a problem. But US is pretty much filled with religious fanatics that forbid virtually everything yet they produce more porn than rest of the world combined. As for the laws that cover it, they are pretty much schizophrenic as Japanese actually hate pedophilia and this isn't any more acceptable than in the rest of the civilized world.Īs for the local laws - well, I don't know. In case you don't really know and don't pull my leg here, ignorant people refer to anime (and hentai) as 'Chinese cartoon' as they can't tell the difference.Īs for the Hentai, it definitely comes with lot of messed up things usually, one should be quite expected. PS: Also whats the deal with this 'Chinese cartoon porn'? I feel like people are referring to a particular thing here (but I have no idea about)? I don't know what the name of the hentai was (TBH I don't really want to go back looking for it though to find out etc), It didn't explicitly say her age (not at least as far as I am aware) but she certainly was made to look like a kid. Z-Dante: Maybe the girl was just made to look younger than she was then? I suppose it is hard to gauge the supposed age of an anime characters sometimes when so many of them are made to look so young. I'm surprised this stuff is so, so.Commonplace? That such messed-up hentai is so easy to chance upon?

Suiceyed: But I don't have a history of anything like that '_' ! SodiumChloride/Shadowtheking/HaXXspetten/QuattroVaginas: Thanks for the replies! So you are basically saying that in all likelihood, this sort of stuff isn't illegal (because its basically a cartoon) in the United Kingdom (or at least the USA)? That I should just 'live and let live' and ignore what I've seen? This thread was recently bumped though it violated Anime Discussion Rule 5. I wish I hadn't clicked on that **** (as ye olde internet saying goes 'you cannot un-see what you have seen').And I would appreciate some advice on the matter (What to do? Is this hentai legal? If you should report it, how? Am I just worrying over nothing? Etc). It was on a website that came up in the first page of a Google search and it was just one of many hentai's advertised in thumbnails in the front page section (basically I unwittingly chanced upon this hentai not searched for it). It might sound stupid but I don't know if I should report the hentai or what.This wasn't exactly stuff tucked into some dark crevice of the internet. However this is for 'real life' porn! When things are depicted in cartoon/animated (hentai) form what are the laws concerning this kind of stuff? I live in the UK and in the UK our laws forbid pornography depicting rape, bestiality & underage sex etc. I didn't see the thing through (the moment I realized what was going on I stopped the hentai as I don't want to see stuff like that!) and since then I've felt pretty morally ambiguous and weirded out about the matter.

I'm no killjoy (and I'm well aware there's a lot of morally dubious stuff in hentai) however we're talking about a little kid (I'm estimating depicted somewhere around the age of 10-13?) being raped in the hentai. The other day I was browsing some hentai out of curiosity (just clicking on random titles etc) when I came across some hentai that was.Particularly disturbing to say the least.
