Hentai

Being a huge Animation fan I've known about Hentai for quite some time but gone out of my way to avoid it.

My first exposure was the infamous Lord of the Overfiends, which, at the time, I found quite repulsive. I didn't get the whole tentacle rape thing.

Not to long ago I decided to go on an Internet hentai spree. I was not prepared for the sights ahead. Cow women (I use the term loosely) being milked, sexual torture, child abuse, homosexual and/or BDSM sex and rape (just for starters) staring fan favorites such as Team Rocket, Card Captor Sakura and Mega Man.

(For those interested I recommend the Portal of Evil. Type 'Hentai' into the search engine.)

I ran the gut of emotions looking at Hentai; fascination, repulsion, shock, humor, elation - all mixed up in varing quantities. Very mindwarping, espically the stuff with established characters - my saturday mornings are ruined.

How should Hentai be classified? Why is it so extream? Can anyone put it in context with Japanese culture, otaku or otherwise?

Same. I did something similar (my initial exposure to anime was a tape with Ranma half, Princess Miyu and Urosukidoji,)

Loved the first two, found Urosukidoji disturbing.

When I got net access looked around at a pile of anime on the web, a lot of which is Hentai (which I'm told means "pervert").

Some of it is funny, some of it is sexy, some of it is seriously fucked up.

Japan is totall strang an frightening to me.

They seem to be still using the prussian schoolsystem (if they didnĀ“t even make their own modification to make it more efficent.)

The stress level for pupils and student most be pretty high even without the mobbing from other pupils.That cannot be healthy for the fraggil mind of an teenager or child.Hentai could be an result.

Imight as well be wrong but...
