Do you think that barrier protection is some weird voodoo magic that only works in Japan?

You can see the creases on Midori's shoe from Ema's heel pressing down on it. This isn't just her sitting cross-legged.

It literally ends with a confession scene and a kiss. No, it doesn't. Licking someone's shirt or blushing every time your "master" says something nice to you aren't platonic things, even if 90% of the manga is played for comedy. Series that don't make it to the "first degree" are series that...

Seems like it would just reintroduce the problem with arbitrarily assigned tags. It's pretty much impossible to give a strict definition of what quantifies as "subtext", because it often comes down to your point of view. Many people would argue that series like Nanoha, Madoka and Saki have...

@RonBWL Mate. As for a "but what if I specifically want to see SFW-only F/F romance and both SFW and NSFW everything else" scenario, it's an edge case. As I have pointed out before, several of these edge cases exist with the current system as well. For example, I can't look for SFW-only het...

From what I understand, the problem people have with merging these tags is a very specific scenario: "I want to globally exclude gay sex and only see non-sexual gay romance while still having access to works featuring straight sex". In general, I don't believe global filters should be used for...

I mean, replacing "smut", "ecchi" and what not with more descriptive tags (like "nudity", "sexual content", etc.) sure would be nice, but this is beyond the scope of this topic.

But these tags aren't utilized properly anyway. As I mentioned before, some uploaders use "shoujo ai"/"shounen ai" for both explicit sexual content and romance, some use only "yuri" or "yaoi" for regular romance and some use both tags at the same time. Hentai/smut works are still tagged...

@Teasday By that logic, shouldn't there be two separate tags for "guy and girl fucking" and "guy and girl staring tenderly into each other's eyes and not even coming close to fucking"? Currently, if I want to avoid running into hentai or smut while searching for regular romance, I have to...

But you're not using the Japanese definition of hentai.

Alright, "hentai" means "porn". "Yuri", according to the site's definition, means "porn between girls". Same with "yaoi" and "porn between guys". Why does there need to be a redundant tag for a specific kind of porn when there's already an all-encompassing tag for every kind of porn? Every...

@Plykiya How is tagging something as "smut" or "hentai" not an 18+ or NSFW tag?

There is already a tag for smut. It's called "smut". If the readers aren't inconvenienced by the lack of two separate tags for het romances (with and without porn), I don't see how merging these two pairs of tags would make the situation worse. If anything, it would eliminate the need to...
