The "Adults Only" sticker is a commonly-used symbol by the visual novel-releasing company JAST USA on the covers of games which feature graphic adult content. It is commonly in the top-right or bottom-left corner of the front cover, though a handful of games feature in the top-left corner, as well a small section on the back cover.

Trivia

  • School Days HQ, My Girlfriend is the President and Starless: Nymphomaniacs' Paradise did not feature the sticker on the front side of the game, only the back. However, the fan disc for My Girlfriend is the President, which was released separately, did receive the sticker on both front and back.
  • Tokimeki Check-in! and X-Change have, both on separate releases, received the sticker despite both having an official AO rating from the ESRB. This is likely because they came in 2-disc sets that included unrated games; X-Change with the second game, and Tokimeki Checkin! with Dousin - Same Heart.
  • Shiny Days received a special orange version of the sticker.
  • There is still content not allowed at the "Adults Only" rating for JAST USA. For example, Family Project has some nudity involving an underage character digitally painted over with lingerie. Shiny Days removed sex scenes involving underage girls in one route, however left them implied through other sequences in the game. Starless: Nymphomaniacs' Paradise had CGs relating to bestiality and other fetishes illegal in some states removed. X-Change 3 had sequences of underage nudity and a rape scene censored. However, all of these later received fan restoration patches online.
  • Aselia the Eternal was refused to be released in an "Adults Only" format due to some graphic material involving minors in its uncensored original Japanese version. It was only released in an edited all-ages edition.
