It's not restricted for people under 18, so they can buy it anywhere. For magazines and DVDs, you don't need ID to buy them, but I think under 18s should show ID.

You see old men kind of dribbling over the mangas all the time in shops. I think there's a link between it and children being molested.

You see pictures of a school girl walking past an ojisan and he's breaking into a sweat. It's not explicitly pornographic, but it is disturbing.

I'm not sure if it's a problem, or just cultural. There are better ways to release frustration than reading rape manga, but it's better than violence in the streets.

Pornographic manga should be sold separately, not at a regular bookstore. It's not against the law, it's a freedom, so it's okay for adults.

I'm against all censorship. People should discuss the issue, and hope social pressure can resolve it, but it's not good to trade one oppression for another.
