Canada hits hentai with ban stick

Canada Bans Imports of Cool Devices, Words Worth

The Canada Border Services Agency has ruled in a October-December 2007 list (released this month) that the American re-releases of the hentai anime series Cool Devices and Words Worth (pictured at right) qualify as obscene under subsection 163(8) of Canada’s Criminal Code.

Wordsworth doesn’t approve. The last stanza of “I wandered lonely as a cloud” is obviously about jacking off, be it to hentai or your sister’s diary:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

Whoohoo first comment! Not like I buy hentai anyways :3 This is the 00’s! In fact I might torrent me some “The hills have size” myself!

Who needs to buy hentai? 4chan, google, and emule/livewire will set you up if you need it.

Hopefully this shut up the fags that keep saying that Kanada is oh so awesome.

thanx for the warning El Mex! Not that we planned to move or anything (Get those boxes loaded NOW!)
No, seroiusly what is your field of study… other than the lovely lolis!
Reading 163(8), it would seem a lot of American Mystery Writers should also be banned along with all those Barbara Strrle books and…
oh well, there goes any profit margin in any bookstore in Canada. Just violate your lease shut up shop and file bankruptcy and watch them open yet another lousy doughnut shop in your old space.
This is one of those times when gov’t has all the answers -wrong ones!
What the hell is “undue” anyway! Hell, there are people who think Agatha Christie was to sex obcessed in her books.
I think they’re just nuts.
You guys needsa revolution and guilotines and Madame DeFarge and to just tell them to go away.

Reading section subsection 163(8) I have realized that Canada only condones sex in the missionary position and for the purpose of procreation, and does not want their citizens to even know that there are any other practices of sex. To tell the truth, I don’t even think Fox News would be allowed in Canada.

Hey wait a second :O Someone else posted under my name on the last comment >( I know people want my life but damn >.>;

Anyways back to snuggling with my hunny <3

@El Mex: Get a little picture by your name :O

This isn’t anything big. As El Mex said, it’s the 00’s. Who BUYS things anymore? :\
Sabas February 27th, 2008 at 3:52 10

>>Who BUYS things anymore?
People who want ero-anime producers to make more of it?

Seriously, I want more Sora no Iro, Mizu no Iro.

@mman426: That’s almost as restrictive as Singapore’s laws. Oral sex is banned except for a precursor to sex. Anal is completely forbidden.

Then again, so is chewing gum! Really! If you ever have a chance to visit Singapore, you will be astounded at how clean the country is. No sticky gum or even trash anywhere.
Senbon Zakura February 27th, 2008 at 4:39 12

@Sabas: Yeah that’s true but I wasn’t being serious anyway, lol.
TDC February 27th, 2008 at 6:31 13

I don’t know what I would do without my hentai…

I would seriously consider blowing up Congress if the U.S. passed any stupid law like that.

Canada Customs are a bunch of Nazis, this has been known for years:

That picture is hilarious.

In Canada, it is also illegal to say politically incorrect things about Islam. You will be put through a kangaroo court called the “Human Rights Commission” — and forced to appologize (something that even conviced murderers don’t have to do because it is “inhumane”).
the other anonymous February 28th, 2008 at 2:14 17

oh Canada! (say it mournfully.)
Wow tried working my way through that decion. That was a decision? What a headache! Maybe abq can translate for me? in summation just what the hell does it say? That whatever some jerk doesn’t like for whatever reason they can keep it from you? I’ve been to Canada and Bloor Street was wall to wall hookers at the time so please don’t try and tell me Canadians don’t mess around. Gods, its’ Canada, its January what else is there worth doing!
Come to think of it that goes for here (Pennsylvania) too!

[…] gave the world the line “your resistance only makes my penis harder.” this picture is required whenever words worth is being referred to. there were 72 replies in the ANN talkback for their […]

LOL those 2 hantaii titles are not THAT ecchi, they should watch “Bondage Game” or my fav hantai: “Night Shift Nurses” now THAT, is what I call [awesome] “HENTAI”^^

I like Cool Devices too, but that in not 1 of the most intense hentai animes…lol….
zield February 29th, 2008 at 22:54 20

who make that list.. ??
thats looked like download list for me..
h_rayz March 4th, 2008 at 6:16 21

I used to love that I lived in Canada. We had something called “free speech”!
It didn’t matter if you agreed/dis-agreed with something, the gov. let you say your piece and then CHOOSE if you listened/look-at/owned something….
It’s official: I feel like an OLD GUY now, “..in the good ol’ days..”
Hangmen March 16th, 2008 at 19:10 22

Buy? What is this… B-U-Y? 4Chan’s /t/, Deadfrog and dozens of other websights has superior Hentae downloadable for free. Who the hell actually buy (?) porn with real money nowadays anyway?

Oh yeah, facepalm.jpg at Canada outlawing animated pron. Who knows, they might even ban real pron anytime soon.
the other anonymous March 16th, 2008 at 19:50 23

h_rayz, what good ol’ days”? most of them have sucked so far. Except for Sunday afternoons and days watching anime lolis fighting off the evil while they are wearing revealing Gundams…
Okay Wednesdays were okay for the most part in ‘67…
Monday mornings have always sucked though, always!
Pyrus March 17th, 2008 at 7:38 24

Well they’re only banning the American re-releases right? So just get a non-American copy.
El Mex March 18th, 2008 at 4:07 25

I’m El Mex and I like horses.
El chicken March 29th, 2008 at 21:43 26

Who watches hentai? It’s the most perverted thing I’ve read I mean what is the point of the horse being there . What happened to watching clean cartoons?
El Mex April 9th, 2008 at 22:42 27

i want horses inside me.
El Mex April 10th, 2008 at 0:12 28

Thats good. :3 Don’t share though.
