For example, the effective age of consent in Tokyo by local statute is 18. However, many prefectures also have local "corruption of minors" or "obscenity statutes" (淫行条例) which raise the de-facto age of consent to 16-18, unless they are in a "sincere romantic relationship", usually determined by parental consent. At 13, Japan's base age of consent is the lowest of any developed country. Japan statutory **** law is violated when an individual has consensual sexual contact with a person under age 13.
