Reitaisai has banned the distribution of adult Touhou works of any kind at the event.https://x.com/HakureijinjyaS/status/2058075755989651866
>>50975224Only for the upcoming one. The following ones are business as usual.Why though. What circumstances forced them to act like cucked pretend goodbois for this one in particular?
>>50975247>The following ones are business as usual.How do you know?
>>50975247city council politics, i would assume. it is what it is, at least the regular reitaisai will be completely unaffected
>>50975251read the linked post and translate it
>>50975251spring and autumn is unaffected
>>50975261Oh I missed the last line.
>>50975224Remind me why should I care?
>Apology and Notice Regarding the Prohibition of Distribution of Adult-Oriented Works at the "Hakurei Shrine Reitaisai Special Edition in Chichibu">We regret to inform you that, due to logistical reasons, we will not be able to distribute or exhibit adult-oriented works at the "Hakurei Shrine Reitaisai Special Edition in Chichibu" scheduled for August 30th.>We are contacting all circle participants who have already applied with adult-oriented works individually.>We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused due to insufficient prior coordination and confirmation.>Regarding the "Hakurei Shrine Reitaisai" held in spring and autumn, it will be held in the usual format, including works for adults, as before.>Thank you for your understanding.Huh... Well, okay. Thankfully it's only for this time.
>>50975224We family friendly now. The American kind of family-friendly, so blood and death is okay, as long as it isn't the writer's fetish.
>>50975247there must be some sort of increased scrutiny by payment processors going on at the moment, probably the same reason fantia had to massively up the censorship guidelines too
>>50975527Don't people at Reitaisai buy with cash? Unless they're actively going after the bank accounts of the organisers or something.
>>50975535It’s just to be careful, don’t want to accidentally break any law
>>50975224Based. Do not lewd touhous.
Whatever caused this specific event to forbid adult products will no doubt spread to the rest over time.
>>50975993I assume this is already some sort of chain reaction from whatever led Fantia to change their regulation on censorship that is also being applied retroactively.
>>50975224It's Touhouver!
>>50976001Doubt it In case of Fantia it was western payment processors, this appears to be a local issue rather than a global one
>>50976081The issue in question is that the event organisers calculated that if hot Nina hentai doujins hit the shelves there'd be buckets of semen everywhere leading to a concussion risk. They need time to completely redo the flooring for extra absorption and tractionPerfectly understandable
>>50977279>hot>Nina Pick one
>>50977279cringe.
Well apparently it's partially being held outside including at a real shrine so it makes sense.
>>50975224Touhou has become more popular among children. The Millennial and early Gen Z who grew up on it are now getting their children into Touhou. I think shielding a lot of the new generation of fans from that smut is fine honestly. You can still find that on sites like pixiv so it’s not fully gone obviously but for this event I really don’t see an issue with not having it for sale.
>>50975527y'all losing the war against payment processors, you keep losing ground, just saying
>>50975224>>50975247>>50975256>>50975328>>50975527>>50975993>>50977964It was zun's shitty lawyer
>>50978030We would had lost all form of porn by now.Otherwise, keep crying jeet
Signs of a weak man:1. Porn addiction
>>50978030I have not used a "payment processor" for anything other than occasional groceries in over 15 years. What are YOU doing to help?
>>50980521Just one more month of nofap and you'll be drowning in bitches, I'm sure.
I can't believe that Shimoneta is becoming a real thing
WON'T SOMEBODY PLEASE THINK OF THE CHILDREN!?
>>50980632I'm fine with that
>>50977795Weird how nobody’s read this part.
>>50981204Cause it's horseshit, this never happened in past years yet all of a sudden this shrine cares about adult content? Can't be a coincidence that this and the Fantia situation are happening at the same time.
>>50981251It's definitely not. Whatever is going on with Fantia is clearly going on here. You can blame MacArthur just as much as that dumb anti-obscenity law Japan has/had too. He tried to force Japan to align with Western ideals which included heavy censorship. So not only do you have precedence for this shit from japan itself before the war, but also from a continuous slew of western influence from MacArthur to Payment processors trying to control morality and what can and cannot be sold or viewed.
