| NiKKoM said: An update on the content: Charles Brownstein, executive director of the CBLDF, said that the materials that led to the arrest of the man, whose identity is being withheld both as a matter of legal strategy and to protect his privacy, were comics, not photographs. “My understanding with regard to the material at issue is that it includes fantasy comics drawn in a variety of manga styles,” he said in an e-mail to Comic Book Resources. “One of the items is believed to be a doujinshi, or fan-made comic, of the mainstream manga series Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha. Another is believed to be a comic in the original Japanese, depicting stick figure-like figures in various sexual positions. In all cases, the authorities are targeting expressive art and not any photographic evidence of a crime.” |
Ok, thanks for the update.
It just confirms what we thought though. I think Nanoha's characters were around 10-years old in the original series but they've been growing up in the later seasons. I haven't watched the series though, so I don't know the actual details. It probably qualifies as lolicon, but it's hard to say for sure. And who knows what the other one was.
In any case, poor unfortunate guy... Wrong time and place, nothing more than that.
