Unconventional Laws (Manga)

The plot of these manga are either kicked off by or follow the aftermath of the government passing a strange new law. Instead of these policies involving drab things like building hospitals or improving roads, the governments in these manga have come up with unusual, unethical or downright insane solutions to a social issue plaguing the populace. Either that, or someone higher-up really wanted to shove it to the brats or meddle in peoples' (extramarital) affairs...!

6 Kokumin Quiz
