How much is too much?

[elly3981.livejournal.com]

I don't know if its just me, but when it comes to reading doujins, I enjoy loves scenes that are romantic and passionate but I cannot stand lewedness and vulgarity. I bought a number of doujins over the last few months, some I like very much while others I kind of regret buying because I find them too graphic for my taste. I know everyone has different tastes and to each his own but am I alone in disliking graphic images of body fluids and people's lower regions? How much is too much for your taste? And yes, I'm talking about some CG doujins I've seen but my question can apply to doujins of any series as well. Just curious to know what people out there think.

though, I'm sure someone out there appreciates them as art or something

*raises hand*

Which probably explains why most of mine either don't come with an R18 rating, or have very limited sexual content. There are some really good plot-driven stories out there if you look (and that's what you're into).

Also, I wouldn't characterize most of the ones I own as OOC ... if they were, I wouldn't be buying them XD

Doujinshis that aren't focused on the smut, meaning those that aren't R18 tend to have a bit more thought put into them aside from how to get the two (or more) characters to boink. But it sounds like the OP just purchased douijins without stopping to think what the material might be inside. In which case, it would've been easy if she had looked at what rating it was.

And you have to consider that most doujinshis aren't written by the original writers of CG, and thus will not know what the original artists had in mind. Therefore there will always be some elements that will be OOC. We can dream and hope and wish and believe all we want, but the fact comes down to Lelouch never had sex and never will have sex with any character in the series. >: That's kinda what happens when you're dead.
