Ive been here awhile..in fact, back when they DID have hentai. And Im honestly a little confused as to why everyone gets up in arms about it, or ecchi that matter(a couple of orders of magnitude less than hentai honestly).

Regardless of the fact that minors may come to this site, if you surf the internet you take your chances. Besides, unless they`re 10 or 11, surely they can handle it, right?

And as far as not wanting to see it...dont click. Simple as that; its like TV. Nobody`s forcing you to watch.

Me, I have absolutely no problem with hentai OR ecchi..I have quite the collection, actually. I may not wanna stare at it all the time 24\7 without end, but its artwork and I like it. No, I dont honestly feel its degrading to women..porn isnt either in my opinion; if you`re so touchy and\or self-conscious that it bothers you, IMHO you should re-evaluate your current personality and perceptions.

*deep breath* I just really needed to get this one out. I truly detest limiting people sometimes.

It's just sort of odd and perverted, but no one will admit that they have thoughts like that.

I don't see a problem with it either. THough submissions DO go into the "New submissions" section in the general gallery browsing, no matter what kind of image it is, so if people are really offend couldn't you just have a Hentai section and have all images that are classified in the Hentai section get an "xxx 18+" thumbnail I think it'd be acceptable to all to have a section here.

It would be nice to have maybe a seperate section for nudity and maybe even hentai. There are a lot of good pics that just so happen to have nudity that I can't use.

*sigh* Oh well...

I personally don't think that there is anything wrong with Ecchi or Hentai. Now, mind you, I openly admit to being rather a lecher when it comes to Hentai and such...but
The hentai is not *inherently* bad (though I have seen some things that leave me to wonder about the sanity of the creator), but, because it is related to sex and sexuality, as we all know, society at large considers it a no-no. That's what they've learned from thier parents and peers, and thier parents and peers learned from thier parents and peers, etc.

Long ago (maybe not so long?) most women wouldn't be caught dead wearing a modest two piece swimsuit, if they could find one at all. Nowadays, they're all over the place, and much more varied and provocative than they were back when.

Society (okay, now I'm speaking of American Society, because I can't speak for other countries) stiffles sexuality. It teaches people that it is wrong, (most) religions teach that it is a sin, and so forth. If every human being has it, what difference is there between sexuality and self-preservation as part of the human mind-set? None. They're both built in parts of our mind.

So I'm a closet 'pervert'. I look at pictures and drawings of girls. Whoo. Have I done anything to hurt anyone? No. Has Hentai changed the way I look at girls? No. I respect them completely, probably more than I do my own gender. It might not always seem like it though my words here at MT. I may well seem crude, and disrespectful. But they are refering to fantasies. Things that do not exist. I enjoy Ecchi and Hentai, and keep my sexuality controlled and out of daily life, til the day that the world wakes up and realizes that it's not the big deal they thought it was and stop stiffling us all..

I agree to having a hentai section here, be it separate or not. I don't know how it could work, (I'm no internet wizard) but it's probably possible. From what I've seen of MT, only quality gets in here. It could be one of the best sites on the net.

I guess because when outsiders look into the anime community they automatically think of hentai and thus label us as perverts and by having things out there that gives them those ideas, we try to distance ourselves from that stigma. Everytime i go to a convention there's always a few people looking, from a distance, at the hentai booths. We shouldnt be afraid to go out and experience all the aspects of anime. People are going to think what they will so go ahead and walk right up and start looking around. The stories are actually pretty good. Plus some anime is pushing it dang close...lol

When the world knocks you down, steals your wallet and spits in your eye; get up, dust yourself off and then round-house kick the world in the face. It's very top-heavy, it'll go right over.

The website is more or less public (you can view the thumbnails and all), so it's reasonable that pornographic/nudity is refrained.

It's legal reasons.

It's illegal for anyone under 18/21 to view it. Hell, we love hentai and ecchi as well. But would you rather have a short-lived MT with hentai or an MT that will go on for awhile that's semi-clean?

I'm no fan of ecchi. Some people think it's art, but I think it's pretty sad for the poor anime character who got drawn by some horny artist exploiting this character on a page who perhaps didn't want to be looked at in that way some people do. At least in real life I feel that those who do it had a choice to. Either way, I don't like it anyway. I do respect the fact that people enjoy it and it's a preference more than anything else, but I really don't think that little kiddies should be looking at such images. And that easily as well. And sometimes we can't help but see them. I'm at school browsing the gallery on the recently submitted gallery item I see some chick with a mega bust on the right of my screen. Not pleasant. Especially since I can't get rid of it... well... the only way I can is refresh the page hoping that there are more submissions to wipe it off. I think perhaps it can be a bit offensive to some cultures as well. You can take me as an example. I can tell you I have nothing in my wardrobe that lets me show my shoulders. *shrugs* that's the way things are

Calgon, take me away~!

i'm not a fan of ecchi/hentai, but as long as it's in it's own section it's fine with me. however, regarding having a section for it on MT:

who can argue with that?

yes, i'm a doctor

couldn't they put it up in a new section, but have it an 18+ viewing section. only those who are verified to be 18 and over would be able to view it... you know, like they have on hentai sites... just a thought. cuz they don't even allow the simplist stuff in terms of that...

That's the problem people are having trouble understanding it's not allowed on MT. Ecchi is fine but people are not allowed to post any adult material on this site whatsoever. I have nothing agianst hentai or ecchi if you like it that's your business just post it somewhere else. This is supposed to be a family forum for lovers of anime.

I do not have problems with both... I fact I like ecchi.

I can see why people would want a hentai/echhi section. But I can also see why MT couldn't have one. Yeah, it's restrictive, but they're being restricted too. It's hard to segregate that sort of stuff on a public site. If someone complained about it they could get shut down. So while I also don't have a problem with hentai and echhi (and I'm even a girl) I much prefer a long lived MT.

No problems with it, a fan meself I is. It's a cultural thing really. Children will eventually grow up and have access to it at some point. This is the world-wide internet, which discriminates only on the basis of age for certain content. However, there are those that don't follow this code and allow free access of data. I have been a fan for many years, way before legal status came about and yet somehow I am not traumatized or addicted. I fully recognize Megatokyo's decisions and follow them. I get my goods elsewhere. People need to broaden their horizons. You don't find any problems with it in Japan do you? If you seek it, you can find it online. But to first seek, you must first know. But when you find what you seek, you must understand and move on. Sorry... me just "keepin it real." There are those that need protection but censorship has been running rampant lately.

Hentai galleries will be a problem for MT. Have you saw the problem at Hongfire??

I actually like hentai/ecchi. Most people are just childish and think that all sexuality is an evil thing and that it is degrading to the character to be having sex. What's wrong with having sex? It's a natural thing, and seeing anime characters being sexual arouses people naturally. It's like drawing pictures of people eating or sleeping. It's a fact of life, and therefore is represented in art.

Fighting for peace is like having sex for virginity.

a blind witness

every one has told his point o view with good arguments: to have a section with restrictions, not to have this section and to search in other sites, or to be really against hentai or ecchi because it's a source of perversion,....

and a part of you like ecchi but not hentai, so i have just a question:
what is the limit between ecchi and hentai? ecchi is just a girl in a sexy swimsuit and hentai begin with a breast?
or hentai beginns with something porn?
so what the limits do you want to settle?
thanks to answer it
