Boku no Pico

Anime as a medium is known to cover a vast array of topics and concepts. Every niche group can find their own genre to meet their specific needs, no matter how obscure it may be:

•You like giant robots? There's mecha.

•You like lots of girls on your dick? There's harem.

•You like Nakama power? There's shounen.

•You like being mindfucked? There's Satoshi Kon.

But where's the genre for catholic priests who need a quick fap before bedtime? Those who need to choke the bishop to some tender, underdeveloped ass? Well, I have news for you! No longer may the pedo priest suffer in silence. No longer may they settle ... for lolitas. For almost like divine providence, they've been blessed with this modern masterpiece, Boku no Pico!

Story: Little Boys/10

Pedophilia. Yup... you're on a government watch list now.

Art: Vanilla Ice-cream/10

It's hard to judge the art since I had to look away at 99% of it, but from what I accidentally watched, the catholic priests will be pleased. Also, if you're a masochist, this is an ideal form of self-torture.

Sound: Moaning/10

I could never unhear the moans of a little boy being pleasured, God help me! These moans of ecstasy will forever haunt me! WHATS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE!? The only thing that drowns out these sounds now is that of cop sirens as they pull up to arrest me.

Character: Molester/10

For some reason, I feel like Jared from Subway has Pico saved on his desktop. After all, he does like to "eat fresh."

Enjoyment: Psychiatric Help/10

WTF Japan, this is going too far. I could never see vanilla ice-cream the same way again. It's like a fever dream that creeps up on you from the mere mention of children.

Overall: My Eyes/10

If you want to be scarred for life, and I mean scarred like walking in on your parents having sex, then, by all means, go for it. This is the "2 Girls 1 Cup" challenge of the anime community.





Now, all joking aside if someone were to actually assess Boku no Pico, it's a tale of forbidden love, where the love interests in question are not accepted by societal norms nor its governing bodies. It follows an older individual taking advantage of a pre-adolescent boy, effectively grooming him under the falsehood of a mutual pact. The reason for the "forbidden love" angle is pretty self-evident given that a child's underdeveloped prefrontal cortex means they're incapable of giving proper consent, as they are still relying on a part of their brain that processes emotion and impulse, rather than rational/practical longterm decision-making.

What makes this stand out from other homoerotic content is that it doesn't try to demystify the predator-prey relationship or ignore scenarios that could give rise to it by placing it in the backdrop of a high-concept genre setting. Instead, it just presents it as a matter-of-fact occurrence, going through the bartering process of winning over the child with purchases, getting them in a relatively secluded location, and eventually coaxing them when they're ill-prepared to properly process the advancements being made.

Needless to say, this is not made for everyone. Even for the small targeted demographic it's going after, there would still be dissenters. It doesn't offer room for misinterpretation. It's exactly as advertised and shouldn't be taken as lightly as its internet-famed challenge has made it out to be.

Make no bones about it, Boku no Pico is 100% deviant territory.

On the surface of things, Boku No Pico is nothing more than a very well animated shota with lots of sex scenes. But it's what lies beneath, what goes unsaid that makes this a somewhat disturbing OVA, more so than the following two episodes that also feature Pico.

There is no romanticism in this OVA, which is odd, considering the content. Mokkun, a somewhat bland character, sees Pico and ends up having sex with the underaged boy. He brings Pico around slowly, taking him out for ice cream, giving him blowjobs in the car, then finally bringing him around to his apartment. What creeps me out ... is the realism involved here...they don't fall in love. There are no roses. Instead there's a guy who seems to have little or no social life or girlfriend obsessing over a pretty boy. To the point where he dresses the boy up as a girl and even compares him to one. Pico likes the attention and (after the initial shock) the sex. It brings to mind stories of teachers having sex with their young children that you see in the news from time to time. I watch this anime and think...this could happen, no, this has happened to people. Not all cases of pedophiles are brutal rapes. Mokkun is neither presented as a bad guy or a good guy. He is not madly in love with Pico nor does he treat him badly, nor is it clear if he is manipulating the boy or simply lonely and desperate.

Pico too is a mystery. He is staying with his grandfather, for the summer if I remember correctly. The man seems old and disinterested in Pico and more than happy to let a completely strange man take his grandson out for long periods of time. If we consider the ending, which takes place at night on the beach...where is the grandfather!?

Of course, I'm not trying to say this is anything but shota porn, no. Merely that it stands out to me because of its stark realism. Compared to other yaoi, and even to its own sequels (Pico to Chico and Pico x Coco) Boku no Pico stands out awkwardly. It's clear Pico loves Mokkun much more than Mokkun loves him and the ending scene where Pico turns his innocent blue eyes towards the audience (facing Mokkun) and says 'I love you' always haunted me.

There are no roses and flowers in this OVA, no love, no happy ending. Just a brief glimpse into the life of a man and his lover, who happens to be a boy. The series takes its time showing scenery and building up to the sex scenes, all the while playing the disturbing call of cicadas. Had there been better character development, more story and more purpose, this could have been quite the interesting anime.

Overall, enjoyable as shota, but with the slightest sense of something not right going on underneath the surface. I can't even go so far as to say it glorifies pedophilia or rape...just presents it. Boku no Pico is an anime that does not judge, merely shows.

Oh god here goes, I seriously hope no one I know in real life finds out I saw this show, let alone reviewed it.

Boku no Pico is the "Two girls one cup" of anime. It's gained some viral popularity mainly through its pure shock value for those not expecting it. It's also occasionally described as "the worst anime of all time" by fairly popular reviewers such as Arkada and HoldenReviews however they provided little information as to what it is actually about. As such I watched it with no context as to its actual content, just to see what everyone was on about. ...

To make this crystal clear to those who are not aware this is Shoutacon Hentai, meaning it is animated homosexual pedophilic pornography (for art purposes only according to the show :P). Around 60% of the run-time of the episode is purely sex scenes.

The relationship between the two characters is creepily believable and realistic. The older man seems lonely and in denial about his bisexuality, even going so far as to dress Pico up as a girl, he never acknowledges he feels any romantic attraction to him or that the relationship exists for anything other than his own sexual satisfaction. Pico on the other hand is clearly infatuated with him.

But perhaps the most disturbing thing about this show is the same reason I can't give it a 1 even though I have no interest in yaoi. This isn't some shitty dojinshi, the animation is of the same standard you'd expect from an average anime of its time. It's even complete with an opening and soundtrack. So this cannot have been cheap to produce and judging by the fact that multiple sequels were made it may also have been a financial success. What I'm getting at is that a lot of people were actually willing to PAY for this.

The show really isn't all that bad at achieving it's intended purpose but there are really only a couple of reasons to watch this, if you are genuinely entertained by shoutacon hentai. To troll your friends, or just to know what the hell everyone is going on about when they talk about this show.

Best anime I've ever seen in my life. My friend first showed me anime a couple years back and this was the one he showed me and I've been obsessed with it ever since. I 100% do recommend and please don't watch with your parents. They may be obsessed with it as well. This is telling me to write a longer review so I'm just going to copy and paste it one more time. Best anime I've ever seen in my life. My friend first showed me anime a couple years back and this was the one he showed me and I've been obsessed ... with it ever since. I 100% do recommend and please don't watch with your parents. They may be obsessed with it as well. This is telling me to write a longer review so I'm just going to copy and paste it one more time.

I have tried to be as fair as possible when reviewing this anime. I have rated it lowly because of the lack of story and originality to the anime and although I personally did not enjoy it I have made some recommendations to animes of a similar genre which I think are more enjoyable to watch.

Story: There is no use in dressing this up as anything other than what it is, Boku no Pico is shota porn so if that's what you're into then this one is for you. There's no real story to it, there are a couple of very short ... scenes to string together the sex scenes but thats about it. If you're looking for something with substance this one is probably not for you & as a yaoi fan you might be happier with something like Sensitive Pornograph as there's more story in there to flesh out the sex scenes.

Art & Sound: There's nothing really wrong with these, it's been animated well so I wouldn't say anything against it on that front.

Character: It's too short to do any development, so the characters are fairly bland. There's no definitive personally traits to them, quite simply it's two little boys who 'experiment' with one another.

Overall enjoyment: Personally speaking, I am not a shota fan. I like yaoi but watching this made me feel dirty on the inside. There are things out there which are more disturbing than this, but because it had no real story to it, it just felt like a flagrant excuse for porn. What I would say is that if you're a yaoi fan who wants to see some simple sex scenes with a little story, then try Sensitive Pornograph instead. If you like younger boys but want something with more story than this has to offer, I'd suggest Enzai which I actually found quite enjoyable to watch.

Warning: This review contains graphic language.

The biggest challenge in the anime world is to watch the infamous yaoi shotacon series called Boku no Pico produced by Natural High Studios. Do not take on this challenge if:

- you cannot think of a young adult male giving head to an underage boy without getting nauseated or beyond disgusted.
- you’re watching Yaoi for the first time. If you’re curious about Yaoi, watch anything (Sekaiichi Hatsukoi is highly recommended) but this!
- you’re a Yaoi fan who hates girly ukes. Trust me, this is the worst one yet.

Story (3) / Character (3):

There is no love story or drama involved in this OVA. You ... basically have a young adult male who becomes sexually attracted to an underage boy at first sight because of his feminine appearance. Pico is spending the summer at the beach working at his grandfather’s café in a maid outfit. After Tamotsu (or “Mokkun,” Pico’s nickname for him) meets Pico for the first time at the café, Pico’s grandfather suggests that Pico and Tamotsu become friends.

In similar hentai (e.g. Oni ChiChi), there’s protest and mention about an age difference. The grandfather doesn’t care that his grandson is gone all day and night with some complete stranger. Mokkun begins a sexual relationship with Pico without any regards to him being a child. It seems to be completely normal in that world.

The story is greatly misleading, and there’s a lack of character development. It’s as if Natural High Studios is forcing you to move forward with the sequels. The theme song presents Pico as a major slut with him modeling in one-piece swimsuits and sexy lingerie, showing the outline of his scrotum. Also, Pico seems experienced when it comes to teasing a man with the way he licks ice cream lustfully from his lips. However, Pico “claims” to be a virgin but takes everything from Mokkun with no hesitation.

Hentai lovers would greatly find this anime to be mediocre because of Pico’s reaction from the first time he has anal sex. He doesn’t scream nor shows any resistance. It’s a plain reaction you would expect from a sexually experienced individual instead of a little boy taking in a huge penis from a guy in his 20s. It seems like Pico has a past or is hiding something. I’m convinced that he’s been with a man before.

Pico appears as a crossdresser from the very beginning. He literally looks like a flat-chested girl with short hair and a girly voice to match. He wears feminine clothing from daisy dukes to workout clothes consisting of a sports bra and tight shorts with ballet slippers. It made no sense for him to protest when Mokkun asks him to wear a little girl outfit consisting of panties. That was an irrelevant scene considering the circumstances if you ask me.

Sound (6) / Art (8):

Natural High succeeded in the sound and art category. The story takes place during the summer on a beach, and you hear the sounds of bugs and the ocean waves crash against the rocks, despite the loud moans coming from Pico. However, the lyrics to the theme song provides misinformation about the story. Lyrics: "Let's fall in love before we kiss." Once again, there's no romanticism in this OVA.

The art is your typical shoujo animation, so there’s no complaints unless you hate big-eyed characters. The characters are well-drawn as well as the image of Pico in skimpy outfits. It’s realistic under the circumstances (e.g. Pico's small penis).

Overall, my curiosity peeked from people having mixed feelings about this series and statements from several people who actually vomited from watching it. I wanted to be a badass, so I took on this challenge. I found myself constantly checking the timer: “No, I have 25 more minutes left?!” Despite the fact that I hate Yaoi with girly ukes anyway, this is the worst Yaoi and Hentai I’ve seen. This challenge was bad enough, so I doubt if I can take on the sequels. I feel really sick and completely lost my appetite.

If you read this full review and feel completely disgusted, don’t watch Boku no Pico! However, if you want to be gutsy, then good luck!

Do I REALLY have to explain why this is some of the most appalling shit out there?

You're either one or two people here:

1. you're a disgusting human being and I feel like I could stomach the dirt beneath my feet more than I could of the existence of someone that actually enjoys this shota.

or 2. You're here to make a meme review because you think its funny or because you watched this awful shota out of pure morbid curiosity

Please do NOT watch this shota AT ALL if you value your life. It's such a waste of time and honestly one of the more gross ... shotas i've had the displeasure of seeing.

Jesus Christ, I've never been so uncomfortable while watching anime. I consider myself a fairly open-minded person. People have been raving about how dreadful this anime is and I wanted to see for myself and come up with my own conclusions.

Watching this just feels, wrong. Not because it's hentai-ish, believe me I've seen hentai but I got through those just fine. Pico was obviously designed to be a "trap" character. A little boy who looks like a cute little girl. Wtf. Sometimes I am baffled because he looked like he has boobies. My mind is utterly confused all throughout.

Besides that, pedophilia. But but ... but, lolicons can be considered pedophilia too so why hate on Boku no Pico? #Doublestandards! Well, that is because I felt that Pico was taken advantage of by Mokkun.

I...I have been scarred. My eyeballs felt dirty after watching this. I'm going to re-evaluate my life choices now.

At first I was just watching this for the achievement on Malgraph and because a friend told me to try. I was perfectly conscious about what I was going to go through. Mixed feelings, awkward moments, cursing myself to be crazy enough to continue watching, hating my life.

And indeed, I quickly went through all those steps.

At first, it was curiosity. Then after 3 minutes (this strange opening passed), it felt just wrong and I had to use all my will to prevent myself from piercing my eyes.

Basically, it is the story of a man which is asked (we don’t know why so suddenly) ... to befriend with a girlish young boy which dresses up like a girl...

My grandpa, is asking a total stranger to take care of me. Dammit what's wrong with this line?!

And then, their relationship grows at the speed of light having sex and stuff together. Everything's fine. There it is: nothing more, nothing less. Nothing is interesting about the characters, we learn nothing about them except the size of their junk.

What would have made it more enjoyable (if it was possible), would have been art and music to add some non-existant emotion, but on both sides, it was bad.

The worst thing in it, was that this OAV is so absurd that it becomes laughable.

Now hear me out this show is clearly a 10/10 masterpiece and any1 who tells you otherwise is lying.

Now lets start with the story, the most important part. Watching this is like you're riding a brand new roller coaster, but before you got on everybody put in a massive plug, and then the roller coaster got stuck midway through. Thats pretty much it. Not sure how I can better explain the experience but its def top.

Everything else is mid but still 10/10 idk wat else to tell you, all fans of classic bangers need to add this anime to their collection and be enlightened.

Every person has their own opinion about this anime, so I'll tell you mine.

WARNING: For anyone who wants to try watching Yaoi, this shouldn't be the first thing to watch.

I'm a huge Yaoi fan, so when I heard rumors about how Boku no Pico is simply porn, I thought "Come on, it's probably not that bad. It's just an anime, it can't be that disgusting or horrifying." But I was wrong.
The first OVA is basically about a middle-aged man who mistakes Pico, who is a little boy, for a girl. Then he starts involving Pico in Sexual acts. He slowly does it all, teaching ... him the stuff while the little boy enjoys it. They don't fall in love, their relationship is pure sex and spoiling. Or maybe Pico thought it was more than that..? And the two other OVAs are really disturbing. Especially the third, it involves three kids including Pico having sex and fuck, that was torture.

Story: 1/10

Some people might consider the part when Pico asks the older man of his feelings towards him, then the man stays silent not knowing how to answer as the plot. But for me, I didn't consider it anything, because after Pico gets over it they just continue doing the things they do.

Art : 4/10


The art was decent, it wasn't too good and it wasn't horrible.


Sound: 1/10

I didn't really pay attention to the quality of the sound or the music. But I based my rating on one thing. The moans. They were so horrible, like a nightmare, they still haunt me till today. That was so disturbing.

Characters: 2/10


Nothing special about the characters, nothing likeable.


Enjoyment: 1/10

I didn't enjoy it. I was worried to have someone come inside the room, even if they can't hear it or see it, even if I was alone. It was just wrong.


Overall: 1/10

Love comes in all shapes an sizes that's what I always say.
The romantic connection between a young lad and grown man was quiet moving. You don't see that alot in todays anime,manga,and graphic novels. The tragedy you saw in the mans eyes after he discovered he was a boy but yet he still loved him. The romance,the tears, and the suspense! BRAVO!
Ladies, You no longer need shoujo once you watched Boku no pico!


Just kidding.
I'm up for anything and I mean anything but watching this made me afraid of the world. Remember how they said that people changed after ... watching school days? Well that happened to me with Boku no pico- and you know what's horrifying? That this actually happens in real life.Little young boys and girls fall head over heels for grown ass man who only want them for their body. This ova (whatever this was) was not love but a man taking advantage of a young boy. Pedophilia is a disgusting matter and this was disgusting anime. Note: I am a lolicon fan(aside from what I said about Pedophilia), I don't mind what you say, and If you enjoyed shotacon thats your thing though I don't think anyone but real perverts would get turn on by this.

((I reviewed this together with Pico to Chico and PicoXCocoXChico as well. This is the same review for all three.))

I think it’s rather cute in a way, but the fact it’s a little boy makes me feel a little dirty in a way. Now if we look at it from a way it not being Hentai, the artwork is astounding and really well done.

The colors are pretty and bright giving it a childish look. The characters are nicely done and their proportions aren’t all that stretched out.
I do have a small problem with the fact that Pico does not look like a ... little child much. He looks older then he should and much taller. Another little problem is that the boys look like girls a lot. Not just how they sometimes dress up as girls but even in guys clothing, they look like girls.

Voices are alright, and the sounds… sound believe able at least. I don’t want to get much into that area of the show thank you very much.

Now… going into story line… At least this one has more of a story line then most other shows and uses it instead of making it a fuck all. I keep seeing it as a coming of age story or a exploration of the body though what they do is a little more then I would actually wish for. I know kids who are like them, that want to explore their bodies and see other peoples. In fact, when I was that age, I would always want to see my mother’s body because I was interested in how it differed from my own. I feel that Pico was touched by a pedophile and that’s why he acts the way he does with the other children. He sees it as a way to make friends and not really fully about full love. Now I can’t say there is not love in it but You can figure that if he is that young, he would be curious. The same goes for the cross dressing part of it as well. Wanting to know what it would feel like to be a girl instead of a guy. But really, that’s me getting into the philosophical part of a anime made for sexual reasons. That’s what happens when you try to break down a anime and review it, even with a hentai.

DISCLAIMER: I was made to watch and write a review on this after losing a poker game and hence would like to withdraw myself from any exposure to criticisms on my decency as an individual for having watched this hentai.

Story (6): Well, just like in any porn that you might have watched previously, the stories are not so much of the focus. Clearly, the sex is the focus. Since this is a porn anyway, I thought it fairly served its purpose. Hence, I cannot give anything below what is fair.

Art (6): Quite detailed. I will not say it is a piece of art. Rather, it ... is an exaggeration that could possibly be intended to satisfy what is not achievable in real-life sex. Well, I guess that is the purpose of porn as well so I could not give anything below what is fair.

Sound (5): Who talks so much during sex? I don't know. The background music, however, is so innocent no one will ever suspect it's a porn until the scene comes out.

Characters (5): Just individuals who crave for sex, except Pico's grandfather - but who knows.

Enjoyment (5): I would like to give as much credit as possible to all anime I have watched, but a 5 is about it.

Overall (5): Uhh, don't watch it unless you were made to watch it.

You know that feeling where you look back on your past and wish you'd done something differently?
I wish I accidentally stabbed both of my eyes with 2 pencils and removed them, only to boil them in blistering hot water, rendering me completely useless; at least that's how I felt in hindsight of watching this... atrocity. This sin. This criminal act. This breach of justice. Mental violation. Whatever it is.

SIN: 1. An act against the will of God. 2. An immoral act considered to be a transgression against divine law. 3. An act regarded as a serious or regrettable fault, offence, or omission. SYNONYMS: scandal;crime;misdeed;wrongdoing;transgression;fall ... from grace;Boku no Pico.

If you're a pedophile, this is the anime for you! But if you're a normal person with morals and an appreciation for the reasons why the law is put in place, avoid all contact with this.

I watched 2 guys 1 finger (don't look it up.) and it was far more enjoyable than this. Tubgirl was easier to look at. Hell, if I'd seen this before 2 girls 1 cup I would've welcomed 2g1c with open arms. Like in the parable of The Prodigal Child. I would've embraced it and cried blissfully at how much easier it was to watch.

STORY 2/10
The story revolves around anal penetration and the digestion of seminal fluid from the phallic organ of a 20-something year old male, featuring this pedophile and a young boy named Pico.
I'm giving it a 2 because it was very heartfelt sex and because he takes an ice cube up his asshole

ART: 5/10
I'm going to be honest, it's quite an aesthetically pleasing art style. I wouldn't mind watching a non-shotacon anime in this art style. Very soft colours and generally just quite nice art however, due to the circumstances of the art style I'm going to have to take away 5 points.

SOUND: 3/10
Oh god. The moaning. The sexual moaning of a small child. It's been 2 years and I can still hear his frail voice. I gave it a 3, though, because after 2 years I can still hear the catchy ass theme song. Boku ga tsurutette! Very nice.

CHARACTER: 1/10
Don't even get me started. Pico's uncle is an asshole who literally just abandoned him. Pico wasn't affected or anything by being abandoned by his uncle and having no other close relatives to run to. And then there's a pedophile.

ENJOYMENT: 1/10
Self explanatory

OVERALL: 1/10
Don't.

Please don't watch Boku no Pico.

Alright then let’s jump right into this, rip that bandaid off fast. If you are reading this review there is a good chance you already know what it is you are getting into but on the off chance you don’t I will give you a quick run down. Boku no Pico is a style of hentai known as a shotacon. Shotacon is Japanese slang that basically describes an attraction to young boys. So this is a porno about a guy having sex with young boys. Now if that hasn’t got your attention/made you run for the hills then by all means read on.

Being as ... this is a hentai there is not much to comment on in the way of character development or story as both are thin if not nonexistent. If there is a story to be told it would be something about forbidden romance between a man and a much younger man and while I guess you could call some of it romantic there is no real substance for a story here, so I won’t call it one. What I can comment on are the art and the characters themselves, so I will start with the art. It is good and that’s about all there is to say. It was well animated with a good amount of detail put into everything. In truth I wish this level of animation existed in more anime but as with the rest of the porn industry the production values will be great, its there howl thing after all.

Now we get to the characters. Oh what a tangled web of complexity this isn’t. The only toons of note in this are the grandfather, the teacher looking guy and Pico himself. The grandfather is a sort of NPC looking dude that hangs out in his bar. He spends his days spouting half sentences and not giving a flying fornication that his cross dressing grandkid is spending LOTS of time with an older guy. Honestly he could have put a stop to this thing ten minuets in but he just sat there motionless. That’s bad grandfathering right there. Next is the older guy, his name btw was Tamotsu. He was that sort of teacher/collage looking guy I mentioned before. Again there is not really any character hear. He sees Pico naked on the beach, meets him at the bar, falls for his “boyish charm” and then a hentai is born. As for Pico, he is the biggest trap I have ever seen. The first time I saw Pico I was expecting admiral Ackbar to run out screaming. Being 100% honest with you, without the sex scenes you would never guess this kid was a boy he is that trapy.

Now before I peace out on this one I feel the need to address those handful of elephants that have quietly shuffled into the room. My reason for doing this review is simply that I was asked, I like a challenge and this was most certainly a challenge. The next thing is quite a series point I feel the need to make. I have avoided the use of the word this howl time but I must now make a point of saying that this is basically about a paedophile. It is my strong opinion that such things are just a no go. Yes this is hentai and there isn’t much you can’t get away with in hentai but this is honestly sick. It is presented innocently and beautifully but the fact is its child porn. I am not here to judge or anything but come on guys. There is a line, its thin but its there.

Any how, that was my review. I hope you got something from it and as promised,

Peace Out!

Oh dear. The hentai that everybody loves to hate. "A hentai for the Catholic priest who wants a fap before bedtime." Yes.

In all honesty, I think, after hearing everyone's anecdotes about how it scarred them for life, I was expecting a lot worse. I was seriously expecting to feel incredibly uncomfortable, since pedophilia is one of the few things in this world that actually gets to me. I put off watching it for quite some time because of this fact. But when my morbid curiosity finally got the best of me, it didn't make me that uncomfortable. The good thing about hentai is that ... it helps people indulge in their fetishes in a way that doesn't actually harm any real people. Like, it's guaranteed that you aren't watching somebody ACTUALLY being exploited and/or raped on camera, and although the fact that it's unclear how old Pico actually is (he could probably pass for between 10 and 14 in my opinion but who knows) did make me uncomfortable, it could have been far, far worse. For example, he could have been straight up, no grey area, against his will raped, or really, really obviously 8 years old or younger even. But he wasn't. I guess something good to say about all the fucked up hentai in this world is that at least people most people who are watching that hentai are watching hentai instead of idk decapitating people or raping children for sexual pleasure.

What made me cringe and want to cover my eyes was a) moving genitals and b) the sound effects... oh god. The SOUND EFFECTS, my friend. Horrifying. But, I seriously think that if you took the element of homosexuality out of this hentai, nobody would bat an eyelash. It'd be just another loli hentai and nobody would care.

I think part of what it is about this hentai that makes people want to gouge out their eyes is the fact that it puts them in an uncomfortable position - as someone who has no real preferences when it comes to the gender of a sexual partner, I fully see why people hate Boku no Pico so much. Don't take my word for it here, but I'd estimate that the majority of people who watch porn they know will make them cringe and/or laugh are probably straight males. So (unless you're into futanari) when you watch a hentai in which a male character could totally pass for female having yaoi sex and making feminine-sounding sexual noises you might hate yourself for getting a boner or, at the very least symptoms of arousal. That's my theory anyway.

In the end, I suppose my opinion is that Boku no Pico wasn't as bad for me as it might be for others because it didn't make me question my sexuality, and I don't actually think it's shameful to have "weird" of "perverse" desires (being turned on by lolis or Pico included) because your desires aren't something you can control, and 'morality' isn't an objective truth, just a subjective system we put in place so that most of us don't get hurt.

As for the rating, how does one even rate hentai objectively? It's fucking hentai with no plot. This is probably how I'd rate just about any hentai.

Story: 1/10. I mean if you take away the factor of Pico's age, it's your average shitty hentai plot and they tried to throw in some drama at the end that went nowhere, idiotic.
Art: 5/10. No comment I guess, the art style was fine; it was what the art was showing that hurt me inside.
Sound: 1/10. The sound effects made me want to rip out my own ear drums.
Character: 2/10. It's a hentai, they're hentai characters.
Enjoyment: 2/10. I hated it but at least I wasn't bored.
Overall: 2/10.

I gotta say I was waiting to watch this for a while now just because I wanted to see what the fuss was all about. Well, everything fussed about in this short OVA is really overwhelming and the fuss is real. I won't ever bother with Hentai no matter the story but since its got a lot to talk about I am going to review it along with the two sequels and I will be fair about.

Story 3/10
While I am giving it a three now I am only reviewing this part of Boku No Pico, keep that in mind. Its story is somewhat ... realistic actually scratch that I am positive something like this story could possibly happen or has already happened. The way I see the story as it is about a young boy named Pico who was seen by an older gentleman named Mokkun whow as really asked by Pico's grandfather to keep Pico company while he is staying with him for a while. Mokkun teaches Pico about sexuality and the rest is history. I mean in a world like today I do foresee events like this taking place. Honestly it feels like when I am watching it I just think of news reports of Mokkun getting arrested or something like that. It just feels so real to me and thats why it gets a 3

Art 6/10
I'll admit it the art style wasn't bad at all for a 2006 anime. Whats really interesting about it, its actually still takes a realistic approach to it and doesn't focus heavily on trying to stand out. However, those sex scenes were incredibly hard to watch. If your really into this kind of stuff maybe you'll enjoy it but believe me I about threw up.

Sound 2/10
Actually one of the first animes I have seen with music and sound I actually hated. The ending and opening theme are exactly the same but at the same time the tune itself is not really good but yet it does fit the anime in general. As you can guess it is Pico singing about his love for Mokkun so don't get your hopes up for anything to special there.

Character 6/10
Even though there are only 3 characters total with lines it still makes a fair character portrayal. Like I was saying early the characters depict very realistic events which makes them unique. Mokkun is indeed a pedophile but when I watch I do not really see him as one. Call me crazy, but in a way he's more of a teacher in that he is showing Pico sexuality but at the same time I don't feel as he is being fully there for Pico. I feel like Mokkun is really just using Pico for a guilty pleasure. Pico on the other hand really cares for Mokkun. He understands he is a boy and knows it is odd for one to be wearing dresses and such but still accepts Mokkun's gift. He's not raped or manipulated by Mokkun at all he just accepts and feels pleasure in there interactions. Like it or not the characters here are actually well put together as a whole.

Overall 4/10
Truthfully I don't believe I get what the creators were trying to point out to me nor do I think I ever will when I watch the sequels. Yeah its a lot for just one 30 minute OVA but I don't think I ever put so much thought into series before. Isn't it funny how very minor twists on morals can make weirder scenarios than anything else. Though with that in mind I really didn't like what I saw and I did about vomited all over the place. Its still a very disgusting anime and thats why its label R+ - Hentai. However, if one wants to watch it keep in mind there is lots of gay sex scenes for just one OVA and most likely more in the follow ups so take caution there but if you can handle it and want to see what the fuss is all about, watch it. It will make you think hard about life in general.

In short, Boku no pico deserves to be venerated as a deity in the pantheon of Japanese animation. Its sacred narrative, divinely sculpted characters, and celestial technique place it in the pantheon of modern masterpieces, where its influence reverberates like an eternal echo in the world of entertainment.

I honestly don't get how people enjoy this. I'm not saying it's bad becuase ya know, people are into different things... But still. It's a bit creepy, no? Mokkun is this like lonely, horny, antisocial 40 year-old dude and Pico is this like innocent child. I don't know it's just my opinion. I didn't like it or the other OVAs (which I'm not quite sure why I watched them). The art was fair, but the characters were bad and the story line was pretty horrible as well.. Overall, it's probably one of the worst animes (Do people even consider this an anime?) I've watched lol ... holla
