Poll: (NSFW Disccusion) Western or eastern hentai

[flying_whimsy]

Eastern does 2D the best, western does 3D the best. Too much rape and monsters on both sides for my taste, though.

My favorite for eastern artists is probably Satoshi Urushihara, Shirow Masamune, and Shunya Yamashita.

I don't really watch/read much western hentai, but I do find the 3D stuff (usually things like video game characters done up in source film maker) to be miles ahead of what the Japanese do. Kind of odd when you think about it, but maybe that's because it's so much harder to rig the skeleton for a 3D rendered tentacle monster compared to drawing one.

Hmmmm... I guess I lean more towards western more than eastern, but that's if we're basing it on the artist I seem to gravitate towards the most and not in the general sense... Even then, a good chunk of the artist under my radar (and my porn folder) get featured off either e621 or Doujin-moe, anyway...

Other than that, I got Fakku and, especially, Yaoi Haven Reborn as alternatives to finding other eastern/western porn [artist] under my radar (and my porn folder), if you will...

I'm with Fox12 on this. Is it really hentai if it is western?
But anyway, I think I'll say western. Just because the artists are more talkative. Or can be spoken to at all.
Though, I much prefer erotic fiction. Well, the good stuff, anyway.
...What? I gots standards.

No, not really. The term Hentai, as we use it in the west, refers to animated/drawn porn in the japanese anime/manga style. Kinda the same as Anime is used to refer to Japanese animation. However, like Anime, Hentai has a different meaning in Japan, it refers to a person doing, well, pervy stuff mostly. In Japan you would use the word Ero + the medium. So like for something animated it's eroanime (エロアニ&#12513 or eromanga (エロ漫&#30011

As for some of my favorites:
Kisaragi Gunma
Napata
Homunculus
Digital Lover
Higashiyama Show
Akazawa red
Takayaki

Western. Favourite artist's probably InCase, I suppose; his work tends to hit all of my buttons, so to speak.

Isn't hentai just Japanese for "porn"? Cause that's like asking "Who's better at Japanese porn, Japan or everybody else"?

No, it's the word for Perverted. Look at my post slightly above for a more detailed explanation.

Anyone who can make goblins look sexy is high quality imo

If its for story-telling and dialogue, its obviously Softcharm.




Western hentai sounds odd, since hentai is a common word for Japanese drawn porn here.'
But for my fav artists.

I'm torn. I like some kind of... weird stuff (Particularly sex with negative emotions at the root, while not rape), and Japan tends to provide that more often. Western stuff tends to be a lot more vanilla. On the other hand, it seems like about a third of eastern hentai contains drawings of adults having sex with children, and I find that incredibly unsettling. On top of that it's not like it's just niche sites that show that, basically everywhere has it. Same deal with incest. Both forms of hentai feature around some pretty twisted moral values, even in vanilla, like the focus on interracial sex and basically how every doujin views sex (Particularly those "Teach that slut a lesson for ignoring me" ones).

If I had to commit to anything, I'd say I prefer eastern hentai, but I also have more issue with it.

As for artists... I'm going to take a risk here and admit that I kind of like DATE. I'm not sure if there's any artists more fucked up than that besides gore-porn (Which I find horrifying)

I'm fine with a character getting a train ran on them but having her getting constantly reamed and have a tag line like "get offended sjws" or something gets a bit annoying and unnecessary.

I've seen this before, and I find it absolutely hilarious. There are people who literally get turned on by trying to give a middle finger to people they argue with online. It makes the intensity of some of these arguments make so much more sense
