Anime banned?

[PaulMacC]

My friend told me that Japan are banning Anime and Manga. They are also handing out a $96,000 fine for anyone who goes against it.
Is this true?

Its only anime and manga depicting underage people in sexual situations, and the ban is in Tokyo only.

Hope this helps :]

So just Lolis then. No biggy.

"The act makes it illegal to possess non-real, non-photographic images that are pornographic, "grossly offensive, disgusting or otherwise of an obscene character," as well as possessing an image that portrays a range of sexual acts "with or in the presence of a child.""
