J-Horror culture. The Buddhist moralizing stories were rapidly transformed into international shockers; people wanted more frightening monstrosities and oddness, with no direct connection with the Western horror.
Manga, anime, movies and the subcultures developed around them competed in shicks and panic. If you really want to know why on the Japanese horror movies is written 18+, take a look at the next issue of Otaku Magazine. Nevertheless, is our duty to warn you that all who looked inside certain pages of this issue have disappeared shortly after. Still, it might be just a story to send the children to sleep for good.

Thanks for the comment. I look forward to working with you too. I'm on a parallel Earth at the moment looking for a parallel dagger to one I lost on mine. The Weapons 'n' Things shop on my Earth was out of them. I'll talk to you when I get back. They have Dunkin' Donuts here too.
Be well,
Witch Hunter
