[IMPORTANT NOTICE] Regarding Pixiv's New Regulation
🕑 Added 2022-11-15 14:01:15 +0000 UTCPLEASE DOWNLOAD THE CONTENTS YOU CAN SEE RIGHT NOW
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sad new. Worst day of free speech in the 21st century Japan history.
According to the newest Pixiv regulation. It is forbidden after this month, due to the international payment companies, to make guro content on the FANBOX. It also affects all the other Japanese paid platforms including Booth, FANZA, DLsite, etc.
This is a pretty huge impact on me and all the guro creators. Twitter Japan's top trending is all about this news at this moment. It is obviously an oppression of the minority groups who enjoys fantasy creations. However, I think the most important thing is to preserve and keep on creating.
Since the ban only affects paid platforms, not Pixiv itself, I can see several solutions for myself already: 1 - I can leave FANBOX and find another platform. 2 - I can go make vanilla hentai. 3 - I can publish all content, including on Pixiv for free then take a break. I don't hate vanilla hentai but it never thrills me, and I don't have the energy to seek another shelter asap. So I guess I will just back up the FANBOX, shut it for a while, and publish free content, including anything I make this month, LOL.
==================================
So here's what I'm gonna do.
First I think I will not post new stuff on FANBOX from now on. So please download anything you could get ASAP. The ban will begin after Dec 15th, but I will set everything to private at the end of this month, you will not be able to see the content after that. I will also delete all the subscription options by then. Next I will post this month's crap on Pixiv so everyone can still get something. Then I will begin my break and perhaps post unpublished stuff later. (It may not be necessary since they are all leaked everywhere lol)
I can not tell what will be next. The good news is my love for guro will continue to live on and I definitely will draw things. The bad news is that I worry about the future of the entire hentai community. I am also considering opening a public Discord channel(for me to find friends to play Elden Ring of course), or if anyone knows a good server already, please let me know through the message.
What a sad day. Will update other news and info later. So far, just go download the crap! Go!

i would gladly keep supporting you if you ended up moving to another platform like subscribestar!

1000 Yens is too much for my echonomy monthly, but I´ll join and stick to your "just to support" plan. I could even increase it a bit. You are the best artist in the genre IMO. And now I hope u don´t suffer much this Pixiv problematic and can keep on your extraordinary guro legacy. If u need move to another site please keep us outdated. Cheer up!! 💖💖

You can try following up, it took a couple months for me to get verified

This is really a bad new to us, as a fan, I'd like to support your work, at any time, and any platform. Please, if the swan wants to fly, could you tell us where to find you.
This is really bad for our community as a whole, and personally I'd still like to support your work somehow. If you ever open up commissions again due to this, please allow me to line up for that.

Please use another platform! I'd like to continue supporting you, there's nothing quite like what you deliver 🙏 it'd be a crying shame to let this BS put an end to the legacy 😢 Either way, wish the best! 👍
isaiahzero
I would suggest you switch to another platform. Followers will follow I think.

Well wherever you go, please let us know.

I think it might still be too early to know for sure what the policy update is going to do to this kind of art. The policy that affects us states No: ・Rape (or any other non-consensual sexual behavior) ・Non-consensual mutilation of a person or body part It's pretty clear they don't want non consensual content. It's not completely out there to say that all content portrayed is consensual, weather it looks it or not. It's all fictional. I've already updated my page to say that, and I guess I'll just see what happens from there. subscribestar.adult seems like a good alternative for the moment. I haven't seen anything pulled from there yet. I post there more anyway since I don't have to censor anything.

要不要试一试Fantia? 虽然感觉是时间问题,但是还是能苟一段的…毕竟DMM为了规制直接禁了MasterCard。。。

可以用zip压缩包,痧比日本网站管不了的,原来也说不能发无码的,zip压缩之后不也是一样发。

Move to a yearly sub paid in crypto and make a discord for subs?
JuyJuy
Move to Fantia like many other artist are doing.

The dartest day of guro community in 2022. Fuck the policy! Hope you find a platform that is able with Paypal, cuz that's the only international payment method available for me to pay for your artworks so far...
Fuck pixiv bro
equilol18
That's bad news for everyone, but we'll support you in your decisions
如果fanbox严到发下载连接都会被禁的程度的话,建议你用hiccears hiccears is recommended if fanbox is so strict that even downloading connections are banned
Dark Tales
I tried my subscribestar site months ago altough it's under rewiev for months. I wonder how i can accept my site...
Mr. Krowy
Man, seriously, fuck Pixiv.
qwerty
That preview is beautiful! When will this cyberpunk work be published?
Dark Tales
Sad news. I wonder what other opinions are avaiable? Moving another site?
ADFLJH
Sad to hear you are taking a break but will continue to support you no matter your decision. Good luck!
ADFLJH
I've done that before and it wont take "that" long, give it half an hour and you'll be good
Fu11m3ta11
Subscribestar is a good option, their payment options would likely not be an issue for guro creators. Also in favor of option 3 if you need a break, but no need for option 2 if it's not something that drives you
luchillo17
Is some hero out there that can compile all that content?
luchillo17
You have 10 pages with 10 posts, not all are download content, but it is 100 posts to go through to download stuff, think you can create a zip file for a simple 1 click download?
:(
This because fucking PayPal shit
Degen.99
Well, patreon is not an option, since it is the very reason why Ayaswan came to fanbox. This is not first time though, there are many subscription platforms to choose, and I will follow you ever after if you have the will.
Arata
Oh and I also see a lot of Japanese creators moving to Fantia instead. That's also an option.
Einwassermelone
Just like when Patreon kicked us out, ah ol'memory
我在本月决定要赞助作者,同时得到的还有如此悲痛的消息。😭
wait,pat also..
consider using patreon?
what a sad news
Justin
What law was this?
Arata
Please consider moving over to subscribestar. They housed a lot of people fleeing from Patreon when that platform did the same thing.
CodeGeassJC
use patreon please !
Jinxman
Absolute insanity please keep us informed on what you will be doing
jdrake

njicde

虚空假面暗惧者
reminds me of tumblr,the same story
Wow that is bad news, where can you find it? No more guro for pixiv would be really terrible for me and people i follow D:
regnak
from top of my mind you could check subscribestar dunno if art go in this but i saw some rape guro sfm videos there
MR G
They are so fucking stupid for doing this! Guro aside at least half of the content that they make their money from has to be loli and or rape
