It's no secret to me that a sizable amount of the anime community likes lolis. My only question is why? I honestly don't quite get the appeal that lolis have. To be honest I find most lolis quite annoying. Now to the lolicons, why do you like them? I only want to know why.

I find them cute if they're really well drawn/animated... but not in sexual way. Let's say it's something good for the eyes xD

Some can be annoying as f***, but...

the adorable one's are adorable. Isn't that more than enough reason to like them?

EDIT: dude, you favorite both Nanoha and Fate...

Most lolis are annoying, like Stella from Arakawa under the Bridge for example. But there are these types, which just exist for the cuteness!

Eh, isn't that obvious?

If someone is sexually attracted to children, then it's a given that that person, as an anime/manga fan, is also attracted to 2D drawings of children. It's considering normal in anime/manga circles to be open about masturbating over drawings of children, so people are open about it.

Sexual fetishes don't discriminate. If you like lesbians in 3D, you'll like lesbians in 2D, and gravitate towards titles with lesbians in them. It works the same way for those who'd like nothing more than to rape a child. Or a dog, if the person in question rolls that way.

Maternal instinct seems to play a part. I read numerous blogs and articles that stated Loli trigger their maternal instinct that they wish they have a little girl of their own. I mean, loli can be very lovely and make fans want to hug them, feel happy just watching them do cute things, etc etc. Though there are always exceptions... (People that want to make them pet, view them as sex symbol) and quite a large number of exceptions actually...

Whoa, sounds really complicated huh? I've read some of those sort of journals too. But we really can't be too sure about what they say. It'll really take a deep journey into the center of the human mind to find out. And that'll probably constitute another thread of its own so, yeah. Haha

If not for the vast majority/pretty much all the future kiddy fiddlers on MAL being male, and males by nature only caring about the impregnation part of making babies, you might have been on to something with this. Too bad!

they wish they have a little girl of their own.


I bet they do. What they want to do with this little girl in the privacy of their homes isn't very nice to think about, though...

I mean, loli can be very lovely and make fans want to hug them, feel happy just watching them do cute things, etc etc.


Somehow, I'm doubtful that huggles are the main priority of those with ten 5-10-year-old characters on their favourite character lists. I'm not doubting that they want to wrap their arms around them, but I am doubtful that the thoughts are innocent.

Tbh, I feel the same way about my Princess. The problem is, Westie's are infamous for having minds of their own, and Princess is female. That's a BAD combo, man.

I think loli is all about purity and youthfulness
-People always reflect to the image of their older self and tries to find people with the ideal figure.Well I think all people worries about their look/changes when they get old.especially when a fast growing child become a teenage ,they will sure miss their older self even though they don't realize it.

just a random guess,unless someone can give a proper Psychoanalysis with this one LOL

Sometimes they're just adorable to look at and you want to hug them. Same kind of feeling you get with other cute things, like cats.

However, just like children in real life, the majority of them tend to be really damn annoying or, in the case of babies, disturbing. Those things just don't stop staring and it creeps me out.

I think they're cute - to put it simply. As some people have said - cats are the same..
3-D children aren't cute at all. I'm female and I prefer females in anime and not in real life (which is pretty unexplainable)
If you're obsessed with lolicon hentai then there might be a little problem.. because that might reflect in the real world. Then the "it prevents them from messing with real kids" arguement comes in. Personally I cannot empathise with that because I'm not some 50 year old man :D
I'm not sure but it is just art, right?

I agree. I have no idea how some sick bastard can get off to animated porn of a 9-year-old, but, it's just a drawing, so it's not like any can or should make it actually illegal, since that would almost be thoughtcrime.

Also, I don't get the appeal of loli anime. If it's just a normal comedic-relief-little-kid stereotype, I'm fine with that. It's cute like a cat, or like a little kid in a real-life TV show or movie. But a show with more than one or two, and it starts to feel like generic-g-rated-movie-99. Heh, it kind of feels like that windbender movie coming out.

I don't care for them. In harem genre there always seems to be at least one loli. Its seems like nothing more than a ploy by the manga authors and anime creators to tap into the pedophile market, maybe pedophilia is so wide spread in Japan that it is a viable market to tap into.

Sex appeal would be a very very difficult thing for some to describe to someone else.

I find loli cute and most of the time humorous, but anytime it turns sexual it becomes a huge turn off...

Its just cute, and sometimes they are neccesary to give you a new persepcitve of a character.

I mean like in aishiterue baby it was cute, because the main character had to learn to look after a young girl. Or as in ushio and tomoya.

In a way it just makes you want to have children of your own in my view.

I've never found lolis to be appealing, but innocent characters attract me. The really innocent characters are not usually lolis, usually shota or teen girls. I suppose the perfect form is a factor. Being totally aerodynamic just makes sense and is an apeal, having parts of you that hang out doesn't make for good aerodynamics which lolis really encapsulates. I suppose putting a mature mind on it or in it would mean sexual thinking as well but not always. Being cute and being able to get away with speaking in a fairly weird tone ''baby speak'' which is cute and something you can only get away with.Being an adult and wanting to get away with things you did as a child or having the knowledge you have now with the youth and energy of a child as well as the clarity that comes from a spotless mind (free from addictions and other such things). I suppose its just a really desire for those days of purity and innocence that drives the genre, when things were simple and you were 100% sure people loved you and that life was amazing to behold. It's a freedom from restraint or freedom from responsibility.

Hmm, most loli's are really annoying, but at the same time if those character were fully grown it would look weird, take The world god only knows for example, Elsee in the one shot before the serialization was fully grown but the body didn't fit the character so they changed the body to under-developed.

as for loli-hentai, people need help if they get off to that.

A large majority of anime fans are underage anyway, so their attraction to loli is obvious.

Plus, their innocence and inability to lead is, well, one of those attractive features. They're the poor man's maid.

Because they are kawaii, a woman can be a lolita as well, and they're just lovely ^^. They have a huge cute-ness factor that is an appealing trait.
