Reading the news posting in the link above, it seems Japan has begun to adopt more U.S. themed policies concerning censorship. With this new law (taking effect July next year) visual media such as Anime, Manga, and Video Games will be censored to exclude things like undergarments. While this would most likely cause an uproar amongst the fans of these media types (me included, somewhat) it's also safe to say this may cause a new surge of growth in the dojinshi market for related material. Although, since Japan is democratic state, this law could be revoked before going into effect it's my guess this probably won't happen. It may have changes made to it later on once it's effects have been felt by the general community (if fans and companies are displeased with the way things are turning out). Anime and the likes sure are about to get different I think.
