Assuming the law is only meant to targeted AI generated CP none of this applies, but if the courts do decide to try to apply it to anime content then it pretty much hinges on:
a) the anime content not explicitly depicting anything in section B, so most "blue board" content and light anime fanservice is still legal.
and if it violates that,
b) the courts deciding that the work itself has some intrinsic artistic value.
There was a case back in the 1980s or 90s in Texas where a comic shop owner was jailed for selling loli hentai because it constituted as obscene under this definition, apparently the court didn't think it had artistic merit but that was a while ago and one of the keywords in this law is "contemporary" and society is a lot less stuck up about anime shit in Anno Domini 2025. Part of the mentioned case hinged on the fact that the court thought that only children liked cartoon/comic stuff (which certainly could've been considered true back then) so they also wanted the guy jailed because they thought he was trying to sell explicit material to kids. I think if somebody actually did get brought to Texas courts for anything posted in this thread under the Senate Bill 20 law, their lawyer would easily be able to argue them out of it on legal technicality.
I'm not a lawyer though so don't take anything I say as authoritative.
