Dissecting the “Ero” in Eroge: The Various Interpretations on Ero-Scenes

“So wait. You won’t bang me?”

I read this tweet a few days ago, and being one who’s had a good share of eroge to know the why and how of most games, I can understand where Zeroblade is coming from. Today’s visual novels have a lot of ways to create a valid reason for you to unzip and masturbate[1]. But contrary to popular belief, it’s not always the case. Because while visual novels and ero-scenes go hand in hand, there are different interpretations that deem the latter as unnecessary.

I’m going to outline a few interpretations here, breaking things down into particular ways on how visual novel ero-scenes work and screw up. Maybe one of these will apply to you, maybe not. Take it as you will.

Oh, by the way. This is going to get kinky, so I’ll go ahead and warn you: This is NOT SAFE FOR WORK.

But before you decide to take the stick to beat your dear blogger to death because another alibi’s coming up, hear me out.

OreImo First Impressions: The Woes of a Closet Otaku

I think Ore no Imōto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai (or simply OreImo), is one of the most interesting shows so far. No, no, I’m not exaggerating here. I’m serious, and you probably wouldn’t know why unless you have played more than ten eroges in your lifetime, or have been an otaku all your life.

The 2D Files: The Case of “Simulated Depth”

This might get un-worksafe, so let me give you a NOT SAFE FOR WORK heads-up on this one.

As far as everyone knows, we otaku are fascinated with how the second dimension works. But what makes it more fascinating is the way its binary clockwork makes us understand that its restrictions are limited to what our 2D complex minds can think of.

To further dissect this statement, let’s use the most prominent and overused one: Genshiken‘s Madarame Thesis.

I’m Not Ashamed Of My Porn: Shance No Ecchi!

… the best way to say “thank you” in Japan is to…that’s right, JAM IT IN.

I recently had a nice conversation with a friend. It simply started out with our favorite artists and their artwork and the genres they usually draw. Of course, given that kind of topic, one thing led to another, and eventually, we found ourselves openly talking about porn. Yes. Porn.

And since it’s a post about porn, let’s tag it as NOT SAFE FOR WORK before we go tackle the juicy parts.

Rule 34: Hentai, ecchi, yaoi, yuri, call it whatever you want to call it. You can never consider yourself a fan if you can’t consider having earthly desires for the cause.

No, it’s not an Ah! My Goddess or Hayate no Gotoku episode or chapter title, so leave me alone in my oh-so-pitiful state or else I’ll wham you on your chin…

“El Vampir In Visum Et Memoriam.”

You might be asking on why I intend to do this for the record. To tell the truth, blogging Tsukihime is out of the question. That is, until TYPE-MOON announced a remake for the said game. And besides, the game is good. I would curse myself if I don’t even uphold my affiliation to the Back Alley Allegiance. Sacchin needs some lovin’ now.
