Thread: is ecchi bad?

Moving to the debate/discuss forum.

how old are you if you are gr.8 and under..and if it has showing stuff it it...or half naked. Yes he might collect it.

Judging from the action of your teacher, looks like you are underage. It depends on your teacher on what he thinks porn is.

Anyways, if you think porn like how we commonly know it (nudity, sex) is "bad" then you might think this "ecchi" thing is too. Since I'm a guy, I don't find anything wrong with it. Theres no sex but sexual reference, like Love Hina, High school girls, girl bravo etc.

Well ecchi to an American might look bad, I don't see many Americans looking at it like Japanese people do. I wouldn't call it porn but I would confiscate it. It depends on how uptight your teacher is I guess.

People who don't know anime think its all Porn(Especially Americans). Should have told you teacher you see worse thing on TV. I don't think theres nothing wrong with ecchi. I love it. Ecchi isn't about sex like Hentai. Its just like a PG-13 movie, where hentai is Rated R or Rated X. Depending on the series. You would have been smart to just leave the comic at home.

Well your teacher was doing what he thought was the right thing to do. It would had been worse if an administrator had been the one confiscating you the manga book. I don't see anything wrong with ecchi. In fact, i think ecchi can be funny and interesting depending on how you interpret the meaning of the word echhi itself.

It is not meant to be bad in general.But there are people that have the wrong impression of the word and thus making it sound bad.Those people think that cartoon is porn,but cartoon is not about porn.It is an art which expresses words.It is because there are people who manipulated cartoons for the wrong reasons that make some people believe anything that is cartoon,including the word "ecchi"is bad.But in general,it isn't bad if you don't focus your attention on the drawing of girls.
