>>1206679It was quite a big deal back in 2013 when it was being discussed in the lower house, most of the language was actually about anime (quite famously it would have banned Doraemon) and a bunch of LDP anime guys made their careers fighting to cut those provisions. Abe even wanted to amend the constitution to get it passed since the upper house and court said it didn't fall in line with the public safety provision. Eventually this was dropped and they set a drop dead date of 2015 to get rid of CP, but the definition of CP still relies on some old case law that is extremely narrow. I don't recall the blog but someone wrote an English breakdown of what it meant based on a distribution case where some guy had grabbed a girl off the street into a bathroom and only a few of the photos he took and distributed that actually had semen in them were considered banned for distribution as CP.
