Most people already know that relationships between adults and minors is risky business at best and actively traumatic at worst — including the people who make content of that. Japan, the US, and the UK will all prosecute adults for having sexual relationships with minors. I'm a bit fuzzy on the details, but I believe even romantic relationships are grounds for a case in one or more of the countries I listed.

As one example, underage prostitution in Japan is a marked issue... but if you go looking for it, the practice is often condemned even in hentai. In such works, the men pursuing such girls are portrayed as 1) ugly and bestial, with the girls are mindbroken beyond recognition, or 2) lonely and isolated, with no one else to turn to. Now granted, underage prostitution is a kink for a lot of people in Japan... but Japan is an extremely repressed country that has to wear a business suit and overwork itself into exhaustion day in and day out, so the temptation to throw all your responsibilities away for a taste of freedom is a strong one. Its sexual content is weird and taboo because it's an outlet, particularly for people who live vicariously through it instead of actually going out and seeking underage prostitutes. The people who are encouraged by fiction to go out and do abhorrent things are individuals who already couldn't differentiate between fiction and reality, which... is a community that overlaps significantly with antis.

Anyway, this tangent has gone on long enough already, but I'm fed up with people getting their knickers in a knot over cartoon — no, anime — characters while they remain blind to the exploitation of real children across the world, including in their own country.
