Lol! What? Sorry to burst your bubble, but this affects shoujo and shounen mangas, not yaoi. It's for 18+ anyways.

You mean mature manga with characters over 18 is allowed? I thought he bans the whole genres.

So because YOU don't like yaoi that means it have not to exist? You think only things you like worth to exist?

But then if something (like yaoi) is 18+ in its origin won't be affected? But in the same post here it is said yaoi would be affected. I already don't know what to think. So much different informations exist!

But in the same article here it is said yaoi will be affected. Or the author mean the under 18 yaoi girl fans, not the old fangirls like me (36)?

I have read other articles about this and I think all of this applies to genres that are aimed at a younger audience that are below 18 years old, like Shounen and Shoujo. This will not affect the people like you and me who are 18+, at least from what I read.

Thank you! I hope very much! I was scared bc in the main post here it was said this will affect (gasp) yaoi which is 18+ originally (the sentence "Yep, girls, your yaoi too"). In that point now it might mean the underage yaoi fangirls.

As a buddy said, once passed a law labeled "minor's protection" can't be removed or changed. They use the kids again.:/

Each serie 6 times? I heard a company could publish 6 mature series for a year. I hope you're right! Sorry, what means removing spectacularization? If that means explicit scenes so then all yaoi/yuri/hentai are spectacularizations? I didn't understood well, my English is not that good.
