Hentai
The word "hentai" in Japanese means "perversion". In the modern sense, hentai is a genre of Japanese drawn cartoons manga, inhabited by characters of a familiar and unusual appearance: girls with perfect figures, large busts, and huge eyes, long-haired beautiful elves, monsters with huge phalluses, etc. These creatures live in their own world, make love among themselves, and at the same time are ideal lovers and mistresses.
In addition to animated films of the corresponding style, hentai is called video games and images, the main elements of which are also scenes of a pornographic and erotic nature.
The very definition of "hentai manga" has become more widespread in the Western world. The Japanese in relation to this erotic genre use a different term - "juhachi-kin", which literally means "prohibited until 18".
There is nothing reprehensible in the very idea of ​​such anime.
Fantasies about copulation with monsters, elves, and other not entirely real characters are as old as the world. And the Japanese brought these ideas to life, so to speak, for a reason.
The first erotic images of ancient monsters and carved wooden or bone miniatures representing women copulating with sea monsters appeared in Japan as early as the 12th century.
But the very art of hentai, similar to the modern genre, originated from the widespread shunga wood engravings in medieval Japan, illustrating in detail the sexual fantasies of the population of that time.
The drawn characters of the hentai genre themselves look very much like the heroes of the national Japanese cartoons manga, which are traditionally depicted in an exaggerated, slightly theatrical manner - big eyes, gorgeous multi-colored hair, perfect figures, and faces, etc.
Hentai is divided into a number of genres and subgenres. Each of them has its own name and specifics.
Images of men copulating are called "yaoi".
Yaoi plots are rather tragic and rarely have a happy ending. Often his heroes die. For some reason, the fans of this hentai genre are mostly women.
Scenes in which women make love are called yuri.
The heroes of the very popular genre of hentai - futanari (hermaphrodites), are overly eroticized girls with genitals and a huge male penis.
Of course, hentai also has traditional, conventional plots with love scenes between a man and a woman. And that kind of hentai, in which the process of intercourse itself is not shown, is called "etti" .
Commercial hentai is produced by various studios for sale to the general public. And such an orientation as "doujinji" has an amateur, "narrow" character, which is not intended for the eyes of a wide audience and in which the most daring and even perverted erotic fantasies find their embodiment.
Why is hentai so popular all over the world? Because fans of this genre are looking for and find in it what is not in the real world. Drawn hentai characters will never have a pimple on their nose, cellulite, or a bad mood. They will always be young, beautiful and will not sort things out among themselves, but will take and make love.
Meanwhile, psychologists argue that excessive enthusiasm for the hentai genre is caused in a person by unwillingness and unwillingness to live in the real, real world, in which it is necessary to find a common language and build relationships with other people.
But if you believe this statement, then ordinary fans of science fiction, comics, magazines can be called infantile people. Therefore, if the art of hentai is not carried away beyond measure, then it will remain a simple hobby for a fairy tale and fantasy - though not entirely decent.
