The Ministry of Justice said that possessing and publishing porn showing incest between family members and sex between step or foster relatives where one person pretends to be under-18 would be a crime.

This reads like its only banned if someone also pretends to be under 18?

IDK but I thought porn depicting minors was generally banned in most countries?

don't know if porn depicting an adult pretending to be a minor actually qualifies, but that feels like an extremely thorny topic.

"Depicting" a minor means giving the impression of a minor.

So here in Australia I think even say hentai depicting a person viewing is likely to conclude is a minor, would be illegal.

Eventually a line needs to be drawn. I think that publishing porn of any sort that flirts with cp is not acceptable, step or not. Same for loli anime content or the whole doll bullshit : if it looks like a kid just don’t.

All the rest if fine as long as it’s consensual.
