So I was fapping thinking recently when this question came to me. Do you think hentai could ever have a deep story, or is it trapped too much in its own purpose to do so? By that I mean it caters to a market and a purpose, so they don't need a good story to begin with. And by deep I mean something more along the lines of more philosophical/psychological anime such as Ghost in the Shell or Lain while also having characters you actually care about and that have depth. Is this asking to much or is it just an impossible feat altogether? Why or why not? Being the good people of MAL that I know you are, explain your answer to contribute to discussion. And do not say Bible Black because- |

Kite and Mezzo Forte, I keep forgetting which is which since they're literally the same. If you want something like Ghost in Shell (well not really but theme-wise) with more high level in terms of ecchi/nudity/borderline-h, I'd recommend you check Mardock Scramble. I wouldn't say it has the best plot or story and it is kinda slow but it's still a good watch with fantastic animation. Has quite a bit of nudity, gore and some sex scenes. Not a hentai. It's kinda fucked up too. Also another show to try, Mnemosyne. Don't look at the image MAL is using, check out the other images, they're better. Lots of yuri sex and gore. Again not a hentai. |

As ecchi anime goes, as in Non-Hentai. I thought Highschool DxD had a pretty good plot. Certainly enough to keep me interested despite the boobs bouncing around everywhere throughout. |

I don't think so, no. Porn, animated porn, they both serve the same purpose and concepts. To induce pleasure and sexual enjoyment/stimulation through simply viewing it. I mean, who the hell watches porn for the story anyways? |

This question has been plaguing me for ages (well, months). My answer would have to be no. If the purpose of porn is to get you horny, then why does it need a deep plot to accomplish it? I believe that for some show to be good, it has to keep these two things separate. Trying to combine them either leads to epic facepalm moments (Freezing looked super serious, but it didn't strike me that way) or shows that end up playing for laughs (i.e. most mediocre shows with fanservice). When I'm watching a super serious show or reading a super serious text, the sex/fanservice gets in the way. When I look at porn, I skip the plot and get to the sex. See the problem here? Then again, if someone finds a serious show that answers this topic's question (male protagonist preferred), please enlighten me. PLEASE. |

Pure Mail is a hentai actually has an interesting setup for the romance that I've never seen before. It's not an award winning hentai, but it definitely tried to have some actual plot instead of PLOT. |

I watched BB New Testament and once I got to the final scene of episode 1 I stopped watching and suppressed that memory until now. |

But that's how a harem should be in my opinion, the MC should have multiple relationships it is a damned fantasy anime after all! |

Jauregui said: Haven't watched it but some say that Kite have a pretty decent story. http://myanimelist.net/anime/320/Kite That's what I would've said as well. Kite and Mezzo Forte are the only hentais (if you can call them that) that I've seen that have anything resembling a plot and characters. Just curious OP, but why are you critiquing the merits of Bible Black off of the dub? I mean, it's not like your typical imported anime where they actually hire "professional" voice actors to perform the dubs. Can you imagine someone like Crispin Freeman or Kari Wahlgren doing the Bible Black dub? I can't. lol Although, I will agree with you. The Bible Black dub is one of the funniest things I've heard since Garzey's Wing dub. |

The person may even have an extensive, personal history with said protagonist. |

Bathos said: It's called Fate/Stay Night. Heaven's Feel route, specifically. Yeah, basically this. This route has a good romance and some interesting conflict of ideals thanks to the previous routes but... the previous routes had sex scenes because Nasy wanted his works selling, but in this route they were always horny and fucking like rabbits. I actually find ones quite hard to find actually. Echi or Hentai is almost thrown to the comedy purposes by the sex idea itself. For now, just pick your favorite book and make fanarts about what they would do when they're in bed, and there you go. |

I think there is a real reason why you rarely find a deep and compelling story in hentai. The reason why is because generally speaking, most people aren't looking for something deep when they watch it. When most people watch a hentai, they want to watch something simple and will get them sexually aroused. When you try and add a deep and complex plot, it might cause a lot of people who are watching for the porn to get turned off by it. I find that most people that want to fap don't really want to think while they are at it. There is one thing I would like to see hentai do though and I rarely see it done. I would like to see a compelling love story in a hentai. Something along the lines of a Clannad or an ef-a tale of memories. Maybe not be so heavy on the drama as those per se, but still make a competent love story. Most hentai I've ever seen are rather shallow with its love stories or have no character building whatsoever. Then again, it takes time to build character and unfortunately hentai only have about 2-4 episodes to work with. Most hentai companies just don't have the budget to make a 12 or 13 episode long series. |

Let's just say, hentai is incompatible with those subjects, sex with explicit penetration is originally seen as something naughty or even violent not pure, let's just imagine toradora or chuunibyou with a sex scene in the end, how turned off it could get? All the pure romance ruined by your favorite characters being penetrated. At least I would be disappointed... Or maybe not... Aaaaaah I'm not getting it right now! You guys... But wait, an ecchi genre could do the trick for sure though! High school of the dead for example? Well I give up! Let's stick with the normal routine before I get mind fucked by those deep plot hentai you guys invented. |

I thought One: True Stories had a reasonably good and even sad story. It gave off a similar feeling as Air/Kanon/Clannad, and its source game was in fact created by staff who went on to found KEY. The actual sex scenes are minimal and tame/vanilla, so it doesn't have much hentai/fap value. As far as all-ages anime go, Touka Gettan has some very nice and sensual scenes, and no shortage of attractive female characters (plus one occasional trap). I don't know how deep SRSDeep lovers would consider its plot, but its reverse chronological structure will certainly tax your brain. Most people just watch them to fap and don't pay attention to any thing else except boobs. Hey now, some people pay attention to butts, legs, or other regions.All the pure romance ruined by your favorite characters being penetrated. Yet fans of those kinds of shows don't hesitate to create and consume hentai fan-art and doujinshi featuring just that, as well as far more depraved acts. Though those same otaku will raise holy hell if characters do have canonical, consensual sex in the actual anime/manga/LNs. To wit: * Actual Kannagi manga mentioning Nagi having an ex-boyfriend sometime in her past (thus implying that she may have possibly had sex with him) = bad, awful, mai waifu has been defiled, must destroy character goods (then regret it and buy them again) Kannagi ero-doujinshi featuring Jin repeatedly jerking off and cumming all over Nagi in her sleep, among other things (spoiler for explicit description, don't click if you don't want to read it) |
