Last time content related to this video was uploaded to junnyjunk I was the only person to notice that the figurine was of bunny girl Mikuru chan.

Was about to mention it again on this but noticed you beat me to it. :p

Correct there were several other people who noticed as well, just checking through all of the comments on it.

They are require to censor penises (and phallic toys) in their porn. Tentacles aren't penises, therefore they don't have to censor the penetration.

Before Japan was exposed to western society, nudity and porn weren't taboo at all. Billboards and TV would openly show a woman breast feeding and nobody thought anything of it. But when the Japanese were exposed to western society, they noticed how westerners visiting Japan were uncomfortable/ignorant to the idea that nudity and such were widely accepted in the general public. The Japanese became very aware of this and one thing that came out of it was the idea to censor dicks.

I know I'm missing quite a bit of info, and may have ****** something up, but that is the general idea.

You're mostly correct: the 'taboo' idea of a naked woman in artwork, or just plain and simply out of a private location, was introduced by the Western society during the Meiji restorative period in Japan. So it was actually the Japanese who found it to be of taboo as opposed to the Western artists who learnt to appreciate that many centuries before. But, times have changed, and that leads to your point in which many (most) Westerners are too ignorant to accept what is natural and that ultimately led to censorship. So while you do indeed provide the end-details it wasn't always like that.

While I don't strictly add anything other than the basis to your already proper post, I felt it was incomplete without the actual introduction of nudity in their artwork.

Due to western culture being introduced and the english having massive problems with nudity japan wanted to seem modern and sophisticated so they banned porn. Well it was just magazines during that period and the rule has stuck and is now a permanent part of their culture

In edition to mistahlegend. I beleive because of their new custom of censorship, it was no longer allowed to have uncensored pornography. The loophole to this? Tentacle porn.

It's actually not as common as you think, it just happens to be the one that comes first to mind when people think hentai
