Ishikei - Nyohan Desu Yo



Lately I've found that it's useful to take a break part-way through a tankoubon and translate something else, so here's some Ishikei I scrounged up.

It's give or take up to the standards you'd expect of Ishikei (though no decensoring this time, sorry).

There's some lolicon I suppose, but the action's almost entirely centered around the busty brunette, so I'd imagine that unless flat chests utterly repulse you, you'll find this one well.

Enjoy.

Another random discussion topic... I notice that lolicon is a highly vague term. Firstly, it applies to a wide age range (pretty much any underage girl). On the other hand, lolicon is defined more by aesthetics. For example, all that Yakiyama Line stuff with the big-breasted middle school girls generally doesn't qualify as lolicon, but a flat-chested high school girl like in today's translation probably does. In other words, it seems like the heroine has to be both young and flat-chested for it to be lolicon, with the later being the more important characteristic. At least that's the impression I get.

Something about that strikes me a bit odd. I always figured that lolicon (like many fetishes) is centered around the taboo. Yet a flat high school girl is more a "loli" than a stacked middle schooler, even though banging a middle schooler is far more reprehensible. That aside, there's also a ton of more mainstream material with physically mature but still underaged school-kids banging each other, which ends up seeming pretty clean and wholesome (by porn standards). Anyhow, the point is... well, I don't really have a point. I think I just like reading my own words... But, perhaps someone else has something insightful to say, particularly about where one personally draws the line...
