Ever since the RapeLay controversy, things haven't been going well for the noble and honest men of the Japanese erotic game industry. Japan has banned a number of games containing scenes of rape and other extreme sexual content, but one particular studio at least has a sense of humor.



Shinobiryuu was released in Japan on December 18 and you may be forgiven for thinking that it contained all sorts of cheeky rape in it. However, disclaimers cover all, and this particular game's disclaimer goes to great lengths to point out that it isn't rape because it's -- get this -- not real:

This is a declaration made with the consensus of all the characters that appear in this story.

All the characters appearing in this game have gone through special training and all actions carried out are done on the basis of mutual agreement. Even if you're a inhuman person who believes that fictional characters in creative works do not have human rights, please do not ignore this. We also thank all the kind people who see a character in the story saying phrases such as "help me" and take it as a real call for help.

However, even though you are worrying for the characters in the story, these are all lines spoken from a script. They are not saying all this from the bottom of their hearts. We are sorry that they have put in so much effort into their acting that some people will confuse it as something that is really happening.This game is a fictional story.

Wow, rape in a videogame isn't real rape, what kind of crazy talk is that? If you listen to some people out there, videogame rape is just as serious and real a crime as actual rape.



Seriously though, these guys make a salient point through their humor. I might find virtual rape disgusting, but as I argued in the past, it's not real, and if people want to put that in their games, they should. Let's stop worrying about pretend crimes when there are real ones to be taken care of.

I'll leave you to comment on this story. On a side note it, at the bottom of the story there was a link to another story about yet another fucked up Japanese games (about women) with the headline "Real girlfriends let you pick their nose!". It had this picture which I found funny as hell despite what the game is about.

What's next, shooting people in the head? Goodbye Grand Theft Auto... If some sicko wants to watch a rape scene in a video game, that's THEIR problem, not mine.
