Priced at ¥9,420 (US$107), the bundle comes with the game disc, a special manga, an audio CD and, ahem, a "personal assistant". Those who order by mail get two personal assistants. There are apparently seven different varities, so those will two boxes will probably get totally different ones. Yeah.

Lots of Mothers!! will be released in Japan on December 25. In Japan, nothing says Christmas quite like Kentucky Fried Chicken, cakes with frosting and having sex with plastic.

This is innocent enough.

This just seems painful.

And cruel! Sadness.

The game also offers widescreen, 3-D and even webcam face tracking. Check out the game's real time trailer, but note that it's probably NSFW. You've been warned.

Water is being sprayed on Izumi-chan from upcoming Max Factory erotic game Sekirara. Splashing water on the poster does what you ask?

This, apparently. Just think if these wizards put their mind to curing cancer!

For ¥11,000 (US$123), the title's developer Waffle has a special bundle that includes a copy of the game, two boob balls and a "G cup" bra.

Feel free to pretend you have breasts — why not!

This cannot end well.

It's not yet known how this shape recognition tech will be employed in the game, but the pictured example seems to indicate that you-know-what will play an important part. (It always does!)

Just think if these wizards used their power for good. Cure for cancer, the ability to microwave metal and in-game boner recognition. Oh wait.

Her hair style, clothes and even stockings look remarkably similar to Kurumi Imari, a character in high-school witch-coven sex-and-horror erotic game Bible Black. The title was released for PCs in 2000 and later adapted into a video anime. Final Fantasy XIII will be released on the PS3 in Japan this December.

The committee is suggesting Japan to ban "the sale of video games or cartoons involving rape and sexual violence against women which normalize and promote sexual violence against women and girls."

Legislation in Japan has been proposed to ban the possession of child pornography; however, the government has decided to study the issue for three years before acting. This legislation does not include virtual child pornography, and the U.N. Committee noted that current Japanese law does not cover virtual child pornography.

The U.N. committee also showed concern "at the normalization of sexual violence in the State party as reflected by the prevalence of pornographic video games and cartoons featuring rape, gang rape, stalking and the sexual molestation of woman and girls."

Here is a YouTube clip of its custom girl game, and here's an example of the software in action: customized characters from Namco's iDOLM@STER. Both NSFW.

Tech Arts 3D is bringing it customizing know-how to Xbox LIVE's Indie Games with an is a "housing action puzzle" called Madrism. In Madrism, players must create an interior design floor plan with all rooms accessible via door. No custom girls! Just rooms, kitchens and bathrooms.

That's right, Tech Arts 3D is apparently looking to go mainstream — 80 Microsoft Points at a time. Good luck with that.

Developed by Leaf, the game was originally released on the PlayStation 2. An adult 18-years-old-and-up version dubbed ToHeart2 XRATED was released in December 2005.

ToHeart2 is arriving back on the PlayStation platform with ToHeart2 Portable. How do the event scenes stack up to the adult PC version?

Sure, the more explicit stuff is gone, but it's some of the smaller changes that are most puzzling.

The animated flick will screen at Tokyo's Cinema Sunshine Ikebukuro and 11 other movie theaters across the country.

PC game Yuusha kara wa nigerarenai (You Can't Escape From The Hero) has its female character duke it out with...sexy poses. The posing mechanic is quite complex and even lets players save poses they've come up with before. The battle system is about posing technique and certain poses have certain powers.

After winning the pose-off, the winner gets, well, get go to town on the loser and vice versa. We don't actually mean you go to a town, you know, we're sorta trying to speak in double entendres.

"I downloaded it," he stated. "but I didn't leak this onto the internet." File sharing is illegal in Japan.

Using an online file sharing service called "Share", the title was leaked to countless users. Described as a "game depicting rape", the title had its in-game mosaic removed and is believed to be banned raped title Rapelay.

The suspect works in the Japanese sex industry.

Joining the likes of PC developer Minori, Yuzusoft's website sends up a standard 403 forbidden to those trying to access the page outside of Japan. And while the VisualArts Visual Antena website cannot be accessed by foreign IPs, the site does carry this amusing message: "PLEASE PLAY THE GAME OF YOUR COUNTRY IF YOU PRAY FOR THE WORLD PEACE!:-)」"

This is less xenophobia, more we-are-scared-of-pissing-people-off. It's just that a lot of those pissed off people live outside Japan. These recent defensive measures from erotic game makers come in the wake of the Rapelay controversy and subsequent rape game banning. Other measures include changing the titles of upcoming releases.

While accessing the Minori site from Japan poses no problems, those outside the country have been greeted with this message:

This website cannot be browsed excluding Japan.

Some foreigners seem to be having an antipathy against EROGE.
Therefore, We prohibited the access from foreign countries, to defend our culture.
Sorry for you of the fan that lives in a foreign country.

As we previously mentioned, these recent defensive measures from erotic game makers come in the wake of the Rapelay controversy and subsequent rape game banning.

Minori has updated its site with a explanation as to why it is blocking access for users outside Japan:

Why minori blocking foreign accesses?

We are little perplexing now because we received a lot of response about this issue from foreign people.

Now we will tell you the short detail about the reason why blocking you to this website, because of we, all Japanese EROGE makers were facing at the problem, the crisis of "Freedom of speech".

Currently, The bill that allows to limiting the content (It is censorship. Isn't it?) to all EROGEs is being discussed in the Diet because intellectuals and politicians said "Japanese EROGE were being problem and troubled with the foreign country. Therefore we should make EROGE hidden away from foreign country, and also its content should be limited and censored".

Okay, now we trusted the word what they said at once. So we blocked you to make stay away from the trouble.

...Do you like that?

If not, please tell your idea directly to Japanese government and politicians.
(For example, you can write the letter to the administration of Japan directly from here.)
(If you can comprehend Japanese...There is information of the politicians in Japan.)

Otherwise, you just can talk your idea about this issue at your blog or other media to inform the existance of this problem to the public. It would be very helpful for us.

If you do so, we might be able to recover the "Freedom of speech" and the barricade lying in between us would be taken away.

Please help us.

We hope this separation would be only for short moment.

Sincerely.

Good on Minori to attempt to explain its actions (in a foreign language to boot!), instead of completely sealing itself off from the outside world.

The inclusion of "shoujo" (young girl) and "school council" show that no chances are being taken.

Date when this will go into effect will be announced shortly. Other eroge makers have taken it upon themselves to offer "cleaner" titles for upcoming games.
