What do you think about Japan's recent ban on child pornography?

Asked by filmfann (52247points) June 19th, 2014

This article explains that Japan has just outlawed the possession of child pornography. It did not outlaw the possession or manufacture of anime or manga which depicts such things in cartoon form.
Are you surprised it took so long for Japan to do this?
Are you surprised they didn’t go further?
Can outrage by other countries force Japan to extend their laws to include hentai, manga, anime, and such?
How do they defend their slow response?
