Reading can be far less visceral than seeing and hearing, even if it is an anime. And if you knew that you were going to be reading about child prostitution, you would have had the chance to prepare yourself mentally and compartmentalize it. Watching the anime, you weren't expecting it, so it got through to you in a more personal way, and then all that previously abstract and academic knowledge you had just became more "real" and humanized.

[/my armchair diagnosis of this]

It sounds right to me. The printed word is just some unknown 'other' that just sort of exists out there in that dark dead world, but the characters in the show are visceral.
And I'm with OP - I'd gladly watch any other part of Black Lagoon again but I don't think I'll ever re-watch the Hansel and Gretel arc.

I agree. Not saying that makes the stories of real victims any less horrific of course, but it's true that there's a lot of terrible experiences that people on the outside just can't comprehend because they never experienced it themselves. If it's being presented to you and actually happening to characters you like, I can completely understand getting affected by it.
