Hentai Manga! A Brief History of Pornographic Comics in Japan

I quite enjoyed this history lesson.

I like history very much, this lecture was very interesting.

This was a very interesting read. It is great being able to read some of the history of hentai manga.

A great read for those that do not understand the art of hentai

I really hope Japan repeals the censorship on hentai (or porn in general), it is certainly not needed in any way shape or form nowadays.
It's obviously for adults, us alone to watch and fap/schlik to it, we know what it is, we know what is happening, what does it accomplish from having it censored?
Does anyone know how what's been going on on the topic so far? Cause I really want to know.

Nice, a history lesson, the more you know.

I'm feeling a bit dirty. I actually learnt something.

At last! A good-natured and insightful study of Hentai Manga and its history. I think more people should read it, so, would it be okay to print and share it once download links are available?

You guys are awesome.

I want that tosh book...

This was a very interesting read. Nice to see how ero manga has transformed to what it is today over the years.

This was such a fascinating and informative read! Thank you for publishing this, Fakku! <3

This has got to be one of the neatest reads I have indulged in. I suppose the item of interest I got of this the most was that no matter what country you're from, you might face adversity for your enjoyments.

Musical revolution, fantasy roll-playing, and a vast assortment of other hobbies or forms of media have been wrung-around-the-ringer as well. I can only hope as years progress, that tactical information can be represented above scare-tactics and bias, at least in the hopes of informative interest.

It gives a tad bit of chuckles, because we're speaking about porn here, but the medium doesn't really matter.

This was...very informative. I actually really enjoyed reading this.
While I did know some of this information already from independent research, I'm glad to have some of the smaller details I didn't know explained.
I never have and probably never will understand the need for censoring, especially if the mosaics can be so minuscule it may as well not be there, but at this point it just feels like something that can't be helped anymore.

While this was incredible interesting, I've got to say that the art displayed in P.19 from Okayusan is out of this world, I pray for the day we get some of his works here on Fakku!

When I read this, I found two conclusions on this basis history:


1. Regulation and censorship ruined everything.


2. Culture barrier and social variation are the biggest issues in ero manga industry and its history as well.


Despite real-life porn is more widespread and well-known even has same critics and controversies especially western porn works never get censored or blurred like Japan did at all. I never understand what they do, just confused by themselves.

I would also like to know about the history of hentai anime in Japan as well if that research ever comes out.

Kimi Rito is an ero manga master in Japan, he's been studying the industry for well over 20 years. And I'm happy to say that he's become a friend of mine who has showed me a lot in Japan. Kimi Rito has decided to make this work available to FAKKU users to read and download completely for free. If you learned something, or enjoyed it, go tell him on Twitter @kimirito Enjoy!

This was a very informative read. I have to say that ero manga is easily my favorite medium, and it's great being able to learn about some of the history behind it. I hope that in the future that ero manga will continue to grow in Japan and here overseas as well.

When you didn't know tosh was... Shokugeki... Man...

Very informative article about hentai manga. This answers a lot of my questions that I have been wondering for a long time.
