Really not sure where else this should go, but Mai Chans Daily Life kept switching from red to blue to red over the course of the day and a whole mess of its sub-tropes are still up and running. ??

Ahem. The 120 Days Of Sodom is not really porn, it's kinda art; it can be taken as an exploration of evil, or of freedom, not unlike The Stranger.

Yamatogawa writes hentai, but some of it's more objectionable than others. Power Play was probably the most objectionable work described on the page, whereas Witchcraft might be worth discussing.
Virgin Night is usually classified as hentai, but it's closer to romance with sex in it. (In general, works by Tanaka Yutaka are less sexually explicit not just than most hentai, but than the more extreme Ecchi. To my knowledge, however, this is his only work that was cut.)
The plot of Kite involves sexual abuse of a minor, but the abuser is one of the villains. (This is another show I haven't seen, but here are
some relevant articles
.)
Forgot to mention Living With Monster Girl. It's clearly hentai, but, for lack of a better term, it's cute hentai. (It's all about sex as part of loving relationships—albeit somewhat deviant relationships—and how the couples work around their differences.)
That's Feo . . . He's a disgusting, mysoginistic, paedophilic asshat who moonlights as a shitty writer—Something Awful^ It's pure, unadulterated Sweet Dreams Fuel. Seriously, just read it—it's short, and I don't think you'll find it objectionable.

It's like Sankarea with sex. It isn't offensive.

...a little brother should belong to his older sister, right? - Orimura Chifuyu^ I wouldn't make that analogy, since Sankarea arguably is offensive (albeit not extremely so.)

Edit: Just got a PM telling me I shouldn't be calling this stuff porn if I want there to be any hope of it being restored. One thing I'd like to establish is that I'm not calling it porn (which is a genre), but hentai (which is primarily a marketing classification.) Some works are marketed as hentai that aren't porn, and some works aren't marketed as hentai that are. (That said, it would be silly to try to argue that a hentai work should be kept because it's not really hentai, rather than because it's marketed/classified/whatever as hentai without really being porn. If we refuse to have hentai, as well as refusing to have porn, I'm not going to stand in the way of that.)

All of Yamatogawa's works are meant to be porn. If we are cutting hentai works, Yamatogawa's has a very slim chance.
I should know: I had read his works.

...a little brother should belong to his older sister, right? - Orimura Chifuyu^^ The whole point is that some hentai isn't porn, and conversely, some porn isn't hentai.
(Though I'll only make that defense for LWMG and Virgin Night. If we're deleting any and all porn, Yamatogawa will have to go, since fetishistic content is the primary focus, even if his works usually have decent stories as well.)

I find that wrong. Maybe you are talking about doujins?
Anyway how are we going to know any progress with the council Eddie? Are they going to post every desicion they'll be making?

...a little brother should belong to his older sister, right? - Orimura ChifuyuI'll illustrate my point with the reverse, using a page I consider expendable—My Balls is often called porn, but because it's marketed as a sex farce, it's not classified as hentai. (I don't consider it porn, since its primary purpose is to make the reader laugh rather than to titillate the reader, but I wouldn't shed a tear if we removed the page for it.)
Conversely (because it's bound to be noticed at some point, and better for it to be mentioned now than later), My Lovely Ghost Kana is a work that primarily focuses on the romantic relationship between two characters, and includes sex only as it relates to the development of that relationship, but it was marketed with a focus on the sex scenes, so it does get called hentai.

Could we also have it linked on the cutlist page as well so non-forumgoers are aware of the appeal process?
