Japanese police have launched a probe over a controversial magazine picture of a child in a provocative pose with a naked pop singer, its publisher and reports said Friday.

About 670,000 copies of the popular weekly Young Magazine were pulled from stores ahead of its planned sale last weekend because of a storm over the photograph, which showed singer Tomomi Kasai with a young, apparently Caucasian or Eurasian child cupping her breasts.

In the photograph, the blond-haired boy is shown reaching from behind to cup the breasts of 21-year-old Kasai, who until last year was a member of highly successful all-girl group AKB48, as she stares into the camera.

The photograph, on an inside page of the weekly, was released as part of a publicity drive for a book of pictures of Kasai produced by the same firm.

Tomomi Kasai’s debut photo book, titled Tomo no koto, suki? (“Do you like Tomo?”), is scheduled for release on February 4th, and the alarming picture was to be used as its cover. Kodansha is also the publisher of the photo book, and the plan was for it to be advertised in last week’s issue of Shukan Young Magazine. The issue of the magazine has now been cancelled altogether, and Kodansha adds the photograph with the young boy has been pulled from the forthcoming book. Interestingly, Yahoo Japan’s auctions site has even banned the listing of the now-renown issue of the magazine, making it even harder for those young men who are desperate to track down a copy.

Japan’s huge publishing sector includes magazines and graphic comics containing images that may be considered obscene in other developed countries. It is not uncommon to see people reading such material on commuter trains.
Young Magazine, which has a sizable readership of mostly young men, publishes comic strips on a variety of themes including definitive works such as the science fiction “Akira”, which became a cult movie series.

AKB48 is one of the world’s highest-grossing acts. It comprises a 90-strong pool of girls in their teens and early 20s who are rotated in and out of the public eye, based on their popularity.

Idols who have left the collective have had varying degrees of success, with at least one turning to pornography.

The only reason why men dispute.

1. Women
2. Saving Face.

In this case both.

But DAYUM! Thats some straight up Straight_Shota.

like Novablaze23 said I can see where an issue would arise. I find myself a bit divided as it definitely inappropriate, but is it child pornography, I think that stretching it a bit.

Now that's how you cop a feel :please:

By the way this is no child pornography! During the summer months ladies sit on park benches with their breast exposed while their kid is sucking and touching for everyone passing by to see.

I'm sure that photographs of cows getting milked will be banned soon because they promote bestiality.

The kid doesn't even remotely look "white."

He looks either:

1.) An albino-asian
2.) an asian who is wearing contacts and has his hair dyed - I'm going with albino though.

I wonder how many african americans whom are albino get so sick and tired wondering if people think they are wight or not .. who gives a fuck what the ethnicity is? So this would have been ok if the kid was a pure-looking asian with a chairman mao haircut?

I love Japan - but holy shit - they can be MORE ass backwards than America, if you can believe it....! Just ask foreigners who visit frequently (myself) or people who actually live there .. (like Des).

Ah, that old advertising trick.

If you want a product to look small, you use a model with large hands. If you want to make your tits look bigger, find the smallest hands you can.

ETA: Wait I get it now. It's symbolism. Her naked body represents the overt sexual nature in entertainment that so frequently is covered in child-like lolita pop-entertainment such as AKB48. The "eurasian" blond hair of the child alludes to the influence of foreign ideas of morality that suppressed previous native sexual habits in post-1868 Japan. It's art!
