La Blue Girl is ancient and was re-released in it's entire uncut format. Also, things have changed a lot since then.

For instance, the hentai game "Yume Miru Kusuri: A Drug That Makes You Dream" has a little sister character with whom you can have sex with that appears WELL below the age of consent. Safe Pic and can be bought at virtually any anime outlet that sells hentai. Hentai videos such as "Dark Love" also have characters that appear 15yrs old or younger and are available for domestic retail purchase.

If that doesn't convince you, go to any anime convention across the country and you'll be surprised at how much of the available hentai material has loli content. It's mind blowing that you can even buy a body pillow case with an undressed loli on it for around $100.
