What did you think of it? Without the context of the story or the characters it's just an average vanilla doujinshi. The weird part is that the original manga is spicy but doesn't even show nipples, yet the author decided to go all out and release official porn.
Pubesanon is just an anon who for years was in each one of the (few) threads about this series despite never having read it, just commenting about her pubes. An absolute legend.

I agree that jimiko has nothing to do with hygiene, but it's not a difficult leap to understand. In some cases, it's just a different spin on the classic "unassuming-looking girl who's secretly a freak" trope. In other cases, it's people conflating jimiko and fujoshi due to their superficial similarities.

A few questions for the thread:

1. What distinguishes the mojyo from the jimiko? The common depiction of the jimiko is not really plain, they are distinctive in their own way. The mojyo seems to be a relative of the jimiko, but is explicitly defined to not be "plain" as the jimikos are, but are instead depicted as being gloomy (fortunately without obnoxious goth aesthetics).

2. How do you respond to the criticism that the entire jimiko archetype is for people with low self-esteem who don't believe they can get women who are more attractive and thus depict the women they would "settle" for as being attractive on account of those women seeming relatively attainable?

3. Given question #2, why are there so few anime or manga that appeal to the jimiko or mojyo as the primary romantic interests? It seems like an obvious choice given some of the types of people that consume anime and manga.

I'll assume that you asked these questions in good faith and not because you're retarded.
1. Jimikos are plain and mousy girls who don't stand out for their looks or personalities. Mokyos are loser girls and femcels. They are creepier and messier by definition, and are probably into weird hobbies. A character can be both at the same time. This >>287684253 is a stereotypical jimiko and >>287655616 is a stereotypical mokyo.
2. How many people can get 10/10 virgin bombshells with big boobs and spunky personalities? Liking something normal has nothing to do with "settling down." Jimikos have their own unique aesthetic that attracts some people.
3. All kinds of people consume anime and manga, especially in Japan. They aren't popular because having a meek and plain looking girl isn't very marketable. It would also require the guy to be the one making the advances and being proactive, which is extremely rare in romcoms for men.

Do characters like Tomoko really count as Jimiko? I'd assume that Jimiko means the plain, mousy girl who usually braids her hair and/or has glasses. Plain girls and dirty NEET girls may have a decent amount of overlap in their appeal when compared to Jimikos but that doesn't really mean they're Jimikos, nor should they be posted in the thread

I think the average gooner is retarded so they just conflate the too regardless. It's kind of like how tomboys turned into these muscle mommy dom archetypes and/or dykes overnight. The way most porn artists just draw every character with that greasy canola oil diet proportion look regardless of their body shape, thus ruining the appeal is some evidence for my point. TLDR the average gooner of today cannot enjoy the subtleys of tomboys or jimikos as everything has to be extreme.

The one in the middle is a jimiko, but because she has a backbone, is shrewd (read: lost Nipponese tribe of Judea), and doesn't take shit from people some anons here will get confused. The one on the left is supposed to be conventionally attractive in-universe. I'm pretty sure the one on the right is just a frog that's been taught to walk upright and wear clothes.

Ultimately everyone still wants the top tier girls so they're a sure bet. Whether or not they can get them is a different matter but in general people would rather see something pretty rather than something unpretty. Even the jimis we see here are at least 6/10 compared to RL.
