The flag here for EromangaSensei was sent with the rationale

Places 12-15 year old girls into a variety of sexual situations and fanservice scenarios.

Bumping this. I note that it has this page on Crunchyroll, what does it mean?

German Wikipedia however does mention that it caused a controversy in Australia when several lawmakers called it child pornography ([1][2][3]).

I'm not going to take hyperbole expressly made to score political points into account, especially not from politicians touting "family values." Just saying.

EDIT: Sword Art Online is on that list too. I think we can safely tell these lawmakers to go fuck themselves.

I would really not use Australian Censorship. It's kinda infamous for being a nanny state in terms of what they ban. Like man, they rated Atelier Totori Plus: The Adventurer of Arland an 18-plus..

Also they listed Goblin Slayer and no game no life their as well which I know would be fine here too?

Edit : Huh reading apparently the Australian review board did approve these. It's just a bunch of random politians complaining

NGNL can be taken as being in good faith (at least by Aussie standards) due to the first thing we see of Shiro being a Panty Shot, but it's still overboard.

Anyway, agreed in general on Aussie censorship. I'm not seeing anything beyond the usual Dirty Kid Little Sister Heroine shenanigans here, but maybe someone who wants to kill some brain cells watching it could see for sure?

^^^^ If you're getting the same as me, then this means that Crunchyroll doesn't have the license (anymore ?) for your region (or maybe anywhere). Looking it up, the original licensing announcement didn't include continental Europe (only the UK and Ireland).

This is just a smidge more lurid than Oreimo. I had to watch this whole thing after I lost a bet.

The angle is on 13-year-old Sagiri's ass at least a fourth of the running time. There's also a 12-year-old girl who introduces herself to the main protagonist saying "If you don't react to me, then your dick really is useless." and goes on to tell him all the girls her age "love dicks."

The argument for it is that there are no actual sex scenes or nudity, just innuendo, fanservice, and will-they-won't-they between young teens.

In that case, let me put a formal vote for keep.

Ironically, what decided it was Megumi's comments. Kids being trolls about sex is perfectly normal in my book.

As bad as it is in terms of content, I don't think it's exactly worth a pull. Plus, considering that this doesn't involve anything too explicit (nothing that you wouldn't find in a typical ecchi), I find it to be okay to stay.

Sigh it is terrible. But we'll I don't think its policy breaking. So filing an official keep.

Looks like we now have a consensus to keep. I'll do the record-keeping; closing in the meantime.
