    Something that doesn't get mentioned in the conversation about anime pedos is the fact that in Japan a lot of video content that was essentially softcore CP was legal until 2012, meaning that it developed an entire industry and audience that didn't just go away after the ban. So they all spread out into adjacent industries and you see this huge uptick in CP-baiting anime, "junior idols" etc in the last decade and the only way to kill it off is big government censorship frankly because the free market failed.
