Do you search tags or popular characters?
Posted on: 02/14/21 08:14PM

Which is more relevant to you? I personally search for characteristics, I don't care about characters, I feel that characters made specifically for hentai are better than characters I like.

i identify with/enjoy specific characters more than i do the qualities that define them (can't imagine why). if i'm trying to find art of cute girls with short green hair doing cute things i'll just search kudou_aiko instead, because then the art will mean more inherently. more to that point if i'm looking for art here, it's probably from that series so that i can indulge my appreciation/hatred for that series

I do both, sometimes there's a character I really like and I want to find a lot of good (or perverted) art of them. I went through all the art of Satonaka Chie from Ooya-san wa Shishunki yesterday. On the other hand, all my saved searches are for characteristics, and have more - exclusions than they do search tags. For example, my search for loli pussy has 22 tag exclusions for stuff I don't want to see. (Like -animated, -asphyxiation, -interspecies and so on.)

For me I have two camps that I belong to when I browse here, one for faps, one for photoshops.

When I do the former, I 99% of the time just start at the beginning of the post listing and go back until I see the last image I remember from the last time I did it and save images that interest me on the way, do my business, and be on my way. Occasionally a specific character or artist I'll be in the mood for.

When I do the latter, I take specific tags that I need to "research" and try to run through the entire catalog. For example, I was needing reference images for "spread_legs uncensored" a few weeks ago (essentially I was needing images of uncensored vaginas, but not necessarily manually spread vaginas), and went through at least three 20k image limit jumps all the way back to image id roughly 400 ish, saving roughly 50 images along the way. Its interesting to note that some of the super old visual novels from the early to mid 2000's still have some of the best looking uncensored pussies to reference, even if they do mostly copy and paste the same 4 or 5 leaving them somewhat uninspired. I wonder if that was the result of the studio who released them in the states being super lazy with the decensoring or if it was just some guy back then that flooded the market with his own personal decensors frankensteining the same pussy onto hundreds of images.

But I digress.

Thinking back I probably could have narrowed that down a bit by adding the "presenting" tag, but oh well.


Looking through my favorites I'm noticing more often than not I'm not even favoriting images that one would call sexually explicit or provocative in nature, but skew more towards safe or questionable. If it makes me smile or its cute it gets favorited. Obviously I do both but that seems to be more prevalent.

In order of use frequency:

Artist > General Tag > Character

Usually the artists I like both have an artstyle I adore and have similar tastes, so I've found it to be the quickest way to find the lewds that I want (or the cute anime girl images that I want...probably only half of what I save from here is pornographic in nature). That isn't to say I don't search by normal tags or by character though, because I still do.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed how uncannily similar every uncensored pussy looked around that time.

Setting work aside, I almost exclusively browse by artist.

Others have noticed, especially when they get reused. I remember seeing one pussy decensor where someone commented "That pussy's older than the character."

Tags. For actual porn intended use, I generally don't look up characters I know for the same reason I don't look up celebrities: It makes me feel guilty knowing it's a person with feelings. I like ideas more than people.
