JP should sell their EN versions on their kakyuomi page or Nihonbungeisha.

Don't support Amazon.

Honestly it's not that surprising. We all knew that we couldn't just keep going wild without any form of consequences. This world is big and we can't just simply be morons who keep reading manga that offends the whole lot of people. As I hear a lot of complaints from people of saying: "Why don't you just not read the ones that you don't like" the problem is that it's a fucking lot.

And it's to the point where you can't just simply ignore it by pretending that it doesn't exist anymore. You gotta get up and go deal with the world and it's ever-moving forms of change and simply do better. It's this thing called growing up. All the mangakas have to do is literally just ease up on some of the things that they're writing or don't expect to be international recognized like Toriyama.

Now what? Will Japan be forced to go for alternate channels for international payments to safeguard its business ?

A quick glance over the YenPress and JNovelClub LN titles Amazon US has banned so far, suggests they are targeting those which have nudity of young girls in the color illustrations (often available in free previews). This is just an assumption, from checking the LN previews of No Game No Life, How Not to Summon a Demon Lord, The Greatest Magicmaster's Retirement Plan, I Shall Survive Using Potions, Clockwork Planet, Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash, and Infinite Stratos on Bookwalker.jp. Surprisingly enough they do all have at least one color image with partially hidden full nudity (not necessarily even sexualized, just nude) in at least one LN volume. This common trend could obviously be broken as they start banning more titles, if that isn't the actual reason. It would become rather worrying if they are banning over something more broad than that.

You know there is a problem when a country's main exports are porn and sexy children drawings.

I have a question. What anime and manga have been banned on amazon? Because, if we're talking about ones that don't follow political correctness, then that's a lot of them.

Also, The west is certainly extreme with their morals these years, but trying to push their views onto other cultures seems kinda really bad. Japan should push back, because that's not right.

Actually, now that I think about it, didn't Instagram or something ban "Japanese style art" a while back. A war on Japanese culture it seems.
Defeat Japanese art by spamming the AI. This way they would not even sign up as anime artists. Let AI - nime break them.
