Plots and storylines don't sell anime and manga now. The sad fact of the matter is what sells in the anime and manga industry is moe and fanservice filled dredge that speaks to the massive lonely otaku shut in demographic. I've been saying that for the last few anime/manga threads. The reason people got into Anime/Manga (apart from the violence) is the details and progression of the story Take Blackjack, one of my favourite comics of all time (Yes, I put it up there with stuff like Watchmen and 100 bullets) The detail in the medical Jargon and the mixture of plot makes it enjoyable to read. And it also proved that you didn't need to make Robots or people who can power up and turn their hair blond to make it successful. All you needed was creativity.

Oh my, If only such a device existed where people could draw these comics there way and distribute them.
But seriously this won't effect much, and I'll tell you why, japan, that is all, 99% of there revenue comes from boob, so I see this either getting the ax or overturned or artists finding loopholes and continuing on.

It's pretty sad that every season of anime recently has some harem anime or a series that's going to show boobs in the DVDs, and they have nothing else that's memorable or interesting to offer. I mean, I think everyone knows by now that I definitely like some /h/ and /d/, but I'm rarely interested if it's in anime. Hentai, eroge, and doujins are in a completely different planet, close but not that close to anime and manga for me. Manga is still good, though. But seriously this won't effect much, and I'll tell you why, japan, that is all, 99% of there revenue comes from boob, so I see this either getting the ax or overturned or artists finding loopholes and continuing on. Might be true. I mean, long ago there was a thread here regarding something, I think a law regarding "hard" hentai. And today, for example, Lilith/Black Lilith/Anime Lilith/Lilith Pixy is still releasing eroge every month.

This all sounds extremely technical... is it related to the construction of a combustion engine, perchance?

I don't watch Anime or read Manga for the fanservice. I could do without seeing a panty shot or a girl's massive cleavage every ten seconds like some anime tend to do like Rosaro Vampire. If I want to watch something and continue doing so, the characters, storylines, and plots are what bring me in. Look at Cowboy Bepop, sure Faye is the queen of hotness but most people watch it because of how the characters and the plots are that reel you in and it's still Adult Swim's best show despite the fact its shown at three in the morning on Sunday. Heck Spike is the most popular character on the show with how much of a badass and how awesome he is.

Funny enough, I was surprised to find out that this was actually Japan's doing. I figured it had to do with an outraged parent group here in the US per usual. Wow. WTF Japan, don't you know your wonderful perverseness is why we love you?

Both have a really hot chick in their main trio of main characters, but, you kinda forget about their hotness because the stories are awesome and, well, let's not forget that Spike and Mugen, in their infinite badass ways, ALWAYS steal the show.

And I dunno about you, but I don't think I'd much like being a bottom to Japan, because the next thing you know, BAM, tentacle monsters all up in here. >_>

I mean seriously, that's just not right. The Japanese are some of the biggest perverts and have of the weirdest fetishes I've ever seen.

Laws passed that male genitalia had to be censored 100% of the time. The Japanese had to come up with something else phallic.

Coincidentally, the anime and porn sections lay side-by-side to one another in my local Tower records. Really, there's copies of Ponyo touching off the cases of Anal Invasion. Odd world sometimes.
