There has been a big rise of these types of events across the country for the past couple of years. 18+ conventions aren't new, but specifically 18+ ecchi events seem to be its own kind of thing. What is more, I see a ton more sex workers at these cons, and it kind of reminds me of a porn convention. However, for some reason they still have everyone wear pasties and no one wants to be nude like a porn convention. (perhaps that is the "ecchi" part coming into play but it feels contradictory to me for some reason).

Do you think these types of events are a blessing or curse for the con scene?

A blessing. The cosplays are eye candy and creative. Also they touch you when you take pics with them

>>10940346
The further degeneration of our modern society. Likely not a good thing

Hentai Matsuri in San Diego was a blast, towards the end of the night one of the girls let us all have a turn grope her ass and tits.

That's it? No blowjob or anything else? So it's just a strip? kek

More and more conventions have to be strict about 'keep it G rated' which is kind of hard when you're talking about a culture which birthed Kill la Kill. I see the rise in 18+ events as a result of this. Used to, conventions didn't exactly care about being family friendly, that's sort of a recent thing. Booth babes weren't even a problem until way more people's kids started showing up at conventions.

Its just further proof that scam artists and creeps can get away with anything in the con scene as long as it looks "professional" and no one gives a fuck in the end.

It really boils down what anime intends to do. It's sad but it gets to the point.
HENTAY HENTAY I WATCH PORN LOLZ

I haven't been to a regular anime con in a long time and don't intend to go again, but I have never wanted to attend ecchi cons.
Having said that I do genuinely enjoy naughty anime (sexual themed anime that isn't fully hentai) as long as it's funny or the story is good.
Here's a good example https://myanimelist.net/anime/51678/Oniichan_wa_Oshimai and of course https://myanimelist.net/anime/40010/Ishuzoku_Reviewers

>for some reason they still have everyone wear pasties and no one wants to be nude like a porn convention. (perhaps that is the "ecchi" part coming into play but it feels contradictory to me for some reason).

afaik ecchi just means naughty, not full blown (animated) porn.

Over the past ten years, I've watched gooning go from being something shameful to being something like weed where people will just go "they're not hurting anybody!" if you do it, so to me the increase in ecchi cons is just a symptom of gooning turning into a mainstream hobby. Based on what I've heard about ecchi cons, it sounds like it's neither a blessing nor a curse but instead its own self-contained thing for zoomers who prefer the bright colors of cosplay porn over the energy you'd see at normal porn conventions.

>More and more conventions have to be strict about 'keep it G rated'
I've been hearing this sentiment ever since the lockdowns ended, but from what I've seen it doesn't seem like it matches up with reality. Most cons I've been to in my state post-covid still have 18+ porn panels in the evening, and there are still boomers selling doujins in dealer rooms. Maybe I'm missing something that was there a decade ago before I started going to conventions?

>can I have a house?
Society:
No those are only for millionaire here’s your hentai convention with hookers
>>
>>10940346
I think it's good to have seperate cons for people that want more adult rated cosplays and I don't think it's a bad thing necessarily, especially if it can be a more comfortable place to try a lewd cosplay out.

>kind of reminds me of a porn convention
Porn cons are already full of weirdo coomer people, just youtube that All Gas No Brakes video of him at AVN. Adding weeaboo culture into the mix just escalates everything.

Having a sexually charged con meant to cater to some of the most sexually unfulfilled people in the world is awkward at best and a complete disaster at worst.

tsumicon is pretty cool.
bought a rare doujin.
>>
I'd love to go but I don't think there is anything like that in Europe is there?
