    Reminder for anyone who doesn't know undon censored a manga called summer time render and called it CP while matt and the people at his company are in possession of, selling, and redistributing it.
    He also bragged about getting the publisher and author's permission to do this which is interesting since he's subtly calling the author and fans predotors.
    I confronted him about this on someone elses comment section.

    • @lilformersmatt
      @lilformersmatt Před 16 dny +7

      Yes, we added more bubbles to a young teen's shower scene because we were not sure we could legally sell it otherwise in the United States. We worked with the mangaka who fully gave us permission to do so. (actually, their original suggestion was more drastic - to zoom in and cut off the art).
      The laws are different in Japan, so they are certainly allowed to sell it there. But we can't take the legal risk.
      If you'd like to have the original nude teen version, it's pretty easy to order it from Amazon Japan.

      Wow, just checked and you're right. It always surprise me how those companies care so much about fictional characters, while they don't do or say sht about real kids in a certain island of you-know-who and his friends. Thanks for the reminder, hypocrisy should always be remembered and shamed

      @@lilformersmatt I told you last time that I'm going to hold you to your own standard's matt. Why are YOU in possession of, selling, and redistributing content sexualizing a 15 year-old girl? Did you tell the author and publisher that you think his manga is CP and that he's a predator?
      Also, in America fictional characters are not CP unless they are based of a real child or indistinguishable from real life. As I said before matt if you were actually scared of the laws you would know that selling, redistributing, and being in possession of CP is illegal and you and anyone purchasing it would go to prison. Yet Berserk and Made in the abyss is sold without anyone going to jail, stop the bullshit.

      ​@@redacted3732 I don't think you're right about drawn CP needing to be indistinguishable from real life or based on real a child. It's simply depictions of characters that simulate children in a sexual or suggestive manner. If it looks like a child, and acts like a child and is sexualized it can be CP. I could be wrong but none of the definitions I've seen say the things you mentioned.
      Honestly, I don't know how making a sexual content of a fictional child is somehow justifiable to some people considering they're being aroused by the fantasy of a child. But I guess it's easier to be in denial than admit you have a problem. (Not directed at you just my general thoughts about the topic.)

      ACTUALLY that's exactly where it comes from, in the Japanese HE is referred to as He, and is EXPLICITLY male, only in the western version do they say he is a she, just because it was easier at the time to straight up claim he is a chick, than to explain that he is a crossdresser.
