Prompted by an article in the latest Neo magazine apparently there have been a couple R18 anime titles making their way into (sex) shops.

The Roommate - Room 1
http://www.bbfc.co.uk/website/Classified.nsf/0/C7C4473202E3E0248025724800479650?OpenDocument

Boin - Lecture 1
http://www.bbfc.co.uk/website/Classified.nsf/0/174F4EA062C1C0AD802572A4003FF2B0?OpenDocument

Boin - Lecture 2 (cut by 5 seconds)
http://www.bbfc.co.uk/website/Classified.nsf/0/8C4D5AE2F383A7F8802573330041861C?OpenDocument

Judging by how little they've been cut, I'm guessing these are a mile away from Urotsukidoji-like-hentai (meaning they're consensual). They seem subtitled as well which is kind of cool I suppose.

I doubt I'll ever end up buying any of these, but at least it widens anime's scope in this country a bit more! Laughing

Any thoughts? (or just ban me from being a porno spammer Laughing)

Well, i guess thats pretty cool...... Ive said in the past i dont mind hentai making its way to the UK as long as they arent shred to be an 18 and sold in the likes of HMV. If they are in the proper places then thats fine.


Boins plot sounds, er, interesting -
Daisuke slept with two of his students, Nao and Mutsugu, and he thought things couldn't get any better.

He thought wrong.

Now that they both know the other slept with Daisuke, what do they do? Answer: They'll both do everything and anything it takes to win Daisuke's heart!

Wel... you never know! Twisted Evil

Found an entry for Roommate 2 which got 3 mins cut for the usual hentai shenanigans (that being hasty tentacles):

Judging by the article, I think maybe a couple of these DVDs have already been released...

Double post!

Ok, looking on 'those' kinds of sites is new to me so it took me a while, but I was able to find Boin 1 and it's running at £19.99. The cover artwork's exactly the same as the R1, except the R18 certificate is where the DVD logo was originally. No sign of volume 2 or Roommate anywhere though...

Of course, you cant order R18s over the net (well your not meant to)

Its instore or nothing. Complete with the awkward shuffling and the trying not to look too interested....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R18_certificate

The relevant bit -
Quote:
The R18 certificate is the most restrictive of the certificates, and videos given this certificate may only be sold in licensed shops — almost always sex shops. According to the BBFC there are currently around 90 such licensed shops. R18 certificated material also may not be sold by via mail order or other remote means such as by telephone or over the Internet.


Any place selling them online is infact breaking the law, as you would be if you ordered them from there.

Sounds like one of those 'it's not allowed, but people do it anyway' kind of things. Kinda like ordering hentai discs from United Publications (isn't that even worse as it's stuff that hasn't even been BBFC-approved?).

That even more of a legal grey area, lol.

I would say UP are in a definite grey area there, since your allowed to import from other countries for yourself (as long as it isnt too bad - snuff films wouldnt be allowed for example, or real rape.) but reselling...... mmmmm
