The current laughing hypocrisy in Japan is that the ultra conservative party is waging a war against hentai due to its evils committed on children, but isn't bothered by actual child abuse, child prostitution, or child pornography that is openly broadcast in Japan. So the REAL THING is ok, but the drawn pictures depicting real or fake children in "sexual or violent situations", would not be.

Politics are the same around the world, it seems.
