are these things that never were uploaded before, or were they remastered? because they look in very high quality, but the full censorship wasn't a standard like it is back then, right? (I mean full white genitalia instead of mosaic or black lines)
@hijikato There used to be two kinds of regulations for the distribution and sale of hentai magazines. One was the softcore ones that could be sold in normal bookstores and convenience stores, and the other was the hardcore pornography that was restricted to porno shops/explicit adult bookstores. The severity of censorship on the magazine depends on which category it falls under. (Until in 2019 they banned "adult" magazines in convenience stores altogether.) The softcore magazines (kairakuten/beast/hotmilk/penguinclub/pizazz) have always looked like this pre-2019. They took full white genitals in return for higher availability and sales.
- Black bars on hardcore mags were very good until the 2013 megastore raid. https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=124122 - After the 2019 ban, some publishers shifted to black bars while others went mosaic (and few remain full white). - It got worse again since Oct. 2021
