Firstly, if a mod feels this sort of topic can not be discussed in this topic forum, or at all because of under 18 year olds, then i dont mind its removal.

Many of you know i,m a big Anime fan, but i also like some Hentai. I cant say i,d ever buy it ( i have Urotsukidoji, but i define that as Anime 4 reasons i can barely define) but i like sum of it.

I just want to ask other Anime fans their views of Hentai, Yaoi, Ecchi and other such so called *naughty* genres of Anime and Manga.

Personally i see sum of it quite artistic and beautiful. Of course sum is quite disgusting(tentacle, rape etc) but even some of the manga pics and Hentai Anime involving sex can be quite erotic without being obscence.

I know many ppl dispise it 4 soiling the name of anime, sort of the same way all the kiddie anime has, so ignorent ppl just see Anime and Manga as cartoons or porn.

Of course another reason it maybe hated is all the best Anime and video games seem to be turned into Hentai. While its technically brillant... most Anime fans do not want to see Evangelion characters having sex(in that infameous video) or ff characters having sex with each other.

I dont know, i,m just concerned because i,m worried many Anime ppl will assume i,m a perv and not a true anime fan for having an interest in hentai. It also gets annoying when the few times i,m approached by ppl wanting to know about *anime*, they think its hentai and want sum.

What are your views?
