That lolita culture is sickening.
It's more bizarre than anything. The detachment culture Japan has created this trend and it's going to take a lot to stop it, really.
Just look at any TV game show or anime; they really reflect what is seen in everyday life in Japan (at least in districts like Akihabara).

What weirds us out is that it's so out in the open, not the fact that it exists.
What the hell. That's just me reading the title. I'm hesitant to watch the video.

Watch it, VICE honest to God has damn good editorials on creepy shit like this, damned interesting too when you think about it. A lot of their criminal,war correspondents,underground culture shit is interesting.
That was both incredibly interesting and creepy.
This video made me genuinely angry, but also put in my mind the job of being an outreach worker.
also Simon is pretty cute
There are people in the west who will watch this and think damn I need to go to Japan.
God, the comments are awful

I fail to see the issues with specimens as fine as this.

I hate how dismissive a lot of [weaboos] are of criticism towards Japan.
Can we just accept that Japan is fucking baffling, and not always in a good way? This video is an example of something seemingly innocent that becomes an obsession. That, and Japan objectifies women. Molestation is so common on public transportation that its practically accepted.
Japan just plain old disgusts me. I'm sorry if Japanophiles get all pissy over me being xenophobic, but it isn't like Japan hasn't given me a whole list of reasons to be upset. Their culture is blatantly misogynistic and self-indulgent, and to say it wierds me out is an understatement.
This kind of culture was what made me say to myself that I would never live in Japan. Visit, yes, but this sort of flaw with exploiting others as almost the norm is a major problem.
japan's culture just confuses the shit out of me, you have all of this formality, honour and shame for family; and then you get weird sexual cartoon shit plastered all over the place
tokyo isn't the entirety of japan
here is a video treating " chinese interns like shit "
[video=youtube;wt__lHCuH5g]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wt__lHCuH5g[/video]
What If I told you Tokyo culture does not represent Japanese culture.
Also, It's no secret that Japan has serious intimacy issues. for example VICE has done documentaries on how Hardly anyone in JApan is gettign married anymore, and the booming fetish trade, as well as cuddle cafes!!
What is going on!!!
Well, My guess is sexual suppression. It's well known that these types of topics have been looked down upon in Japan fro centuries. Modesty has always been the first and foremost in this culture.
I can only assume that their era is about rebellion.

Are they saying they want hitmen to eliminate them?!
I know where I'm going for vacation.
truly a terrible culture

It's so much worst in other areas of the world and your anger is directed at weebs? Granted any underaged prostitution should be handled regardless of the country but to say Japan is horrible means a good portion of the world is fucking abysmal.
You are complaining about Japan when our own country is much worse off. It's among the big contenders for child prostitution, only superseded by India, Thailand, Peru, and Brazil.
Honestly, these statistics are difficult to calculate and it doesn't help the Japanese gov doesn't give good info beyond a reported 6,400 cases of underage prostitution in 2012, which is hard to compare with other statistics.
Still, support networks and facilities are lacking and there needs to be stricter enforcement and laws regarding businesses profiteering off of the JK craze.
Improvement is necessary to contain the growing prostitution scene but to call japan disgusting is a disservice to the most of the world.
You need to realize anecdotal evidence is not sufficient to condemn japan. It has a culture that glorify high school and youth as a great time of their life cuz life in japan is boring as hell and to many, also lonely after school and uni.
Why can't Japan just watch College Dorm Porn like the rest of us?
Just gotta make those uniforms mandatory for college to solve this issue!
People that like lolis should just fucking kill themselves
Seriously, sexualizing children is fucking disgusting.
there's no excuse for this type of shit.

I wasn't commenting about it existing or not. In fact I specifically stated that this is something that can be observed just by living in Japan and going places, out in the open, so good job reading there.
Removing lolis from anime would be the first sensible step as it propagates this disgusting behavior.
Lolis serve literally no purpose except appeal to pedos in anime.
People that defend that shit are sick.

Well to be fair if I was a helpless young girl and there's a soulless group of men who aren't concerned for my well being and using me for their own benefit, ruining my life and emotionally scarring me I'd think I want someone to kill them too.

this anti-government sentiment on facepunch is getting a bit too far
City people come up with the weirdest shit
this is why every time I go back to Japan to visit close relatives, I only pass by my backwater country hometown

Criminalizing drawings is just silly. How about support systems for abused children, a crackdown on prostitution and actual child porn, and general warnings and awareness programs? Art bans like that are super easy to get around and in general ineffective at stopping the availability of them. Not to mention, in itself, it is a victimless crime, and arresting a man jerking it in his basement to loli anime won't make the lives of children in Japan any safer.

I hear that arguement a lot but I've read a rumor once on a Japanese board that some loli artists base their stuff off legit CP
for whatever reason, I don't know but I remember it being something about drawing the anatomy right
dunno if any of it's true but I also see some ads on Japanese networks that is literally advertising an imageboard posting clothed (but otherwise suggestively posed) preteens and stuff. Pretty gross if you ask me.
