Otaku culture and sexuality
0
I guess some anime use sexuality to water down the violence to make it more likable. It's like eating candy after eating something extremely sour to balance out the taste. The times have changed... during the 90's bloody anime like Guyver, Devilman, and Berzerk were very popular. Now the anime industry is catering to type B otaku, which isn't always bad (^_~).

That's because an otaku IS someone who like forms of anime.
Hmm I guess I kinda forgot that point. Or rather, I blocked that out.

Real porn usually doesn't give an emotional connection to the viewers.By "emotional connection" you mean something like the whole waifu thing, ACTUAL stories in hentai and some sort of shallow personality to the characters, I guess?
Maybe so, but that doesn't really answer my question - it gives an answer as to WHY otaku like hentai, but not why it's such a big part of the subculture IMO.
I think it's peculiar that those who allegedly "never get laid" surround themselves with shitloads of pornography (I speak of experience - practically ANYONE who uses my PC is bound to stumble across it eventually)
