Unless you are a pure individual, you probably know that Japanese porn is censored. Male and female genitalia are censored using a mosaic blur. If you watch Japanese porn expecting to see the female crotch area, you will likely see something like this instead:

Why is this so? Why does Japan, one of the largest markets for pornography in the world, force film makers to censor their films?

Porn was first seriously restricted in Japan in the Meiji Era, when materials deemed “injurious to public morals” were banned. After Japan’s defeat in WW2, American occupation authorities changed many of Japan’s laws to guarantee freedom of speech and expression. Sadly, the occupation authorities decided that the pre-existing law regarding pornography didn’t need to be changed. It has remained in effect to this day.

While the 60 years after World War II saw the acceptance of uncensored pornography as freedom of expression in the West, Japan continued to consider it “injurious to public morals.” One still cannot legally buy a movie featuring fully visible hardcore action.

In recent years it seems that the definition of “injurious to public morals” has been relaxed. Ten years ago, pubic hair was censored: now it is not. Last year, the American film Kinsey was allowed to air in Japanese theaters uncensored. The scene in which Dr. Kinsey is giving a slideshow of penis/vagina picture made history as the first ever scene showing human genitalia allowed by the censors.

Actually I don't have a favorite, honestly I've only watched 3 hentai series; Bible Black, Night Shift Nurses and Tournament of the the Gods, and all of them sucked specially Bible Black I felt ill while watching it but I admit it the characters are beautiful.

So I wonder if you guys have a favorite hentai series? not only dudes I will be gladly surprised to hear girl's opinion in this one.

I might get some ideas ^_^ just so my list grows ^^;

I'm happy to say that I've officially moved out and runnin' my own place with my girlfriend. We have a 2 bedroom, 1 bath appartment. It is very nice in my opinion. What's even nicer is that she let me decorate the 2nd bedroom with whatever I want.

It's great, I don't have to box up all my dakimakura, bedsheets and towels anymore. I can display whenever I want, however I want. They finally get some breathing room. I can't say the same with my figurines though, most of them are preserved until I feel like displaying them. I have about 20 scattered in the appartment and see no need to display more...but the dakimakura and bedsheets stay in this room. Even though it's our appartment, people come over so we still need to keep things at a limit.

PS: The dakimakura will unwrinkle themselves, I barely finished putting them up. I had no other way of hanging up the girls, so if it looks a little tacky, deal. ;p
