There were also multiple complaints against Animax, a Japanese language television channel with English subtitles offering anime content, a highly popular form of animation. Aimed at a core target audience aged between 15 and 24 years, the channel is also watched by children.
The complaints referred to “adult scenes” in animated shows like Sket Dance II and Kamisama Kiss that apparently sexualised women’s bodies. It was also pointed out that the shows presented no disclaimer for viewers’ discretion at the outset.
Industry sources told ThePrint that several of these shows and cartoons were not even shown in Japan, apart from other countries, anymore.
