Kopikatsu said:Imp Emissary said:Paz (the girl in the camp) is apparently in her 20s. However, there is child rape.
After she is raped by her capters in front of another prisoner, Chico, who is 13. They then force him to rape her. Saying that if he doesn't, he'll be next.It's worth mentioning that in Japan, age of consent is 13.
So there (Where Kojima is from, natch), it's not underage rape. Just normal rape.
It is true that 13 is the age of consent in Japan. However, from how it was explained to me, that doesn't mean an adult can have sex with someone that young. It means kids 13-17 can have sex with each other.
That's what I was told at least.
Also, the game isn't taking place in Japan, and none of the characters involved are Japanese. Plus, I'm pretty sure Kojima has become worldly enough to know how other parts of the world would view this.
He did state a long while ago that he was worried that the new Metal Gears would be "more controversial", so I don't think he's just ignorant of how other cultures would view this.
