Hentai isn't anywhere as niche as it used to be. I'd guess most millennials are aware of it.

    I remember going to uni and my friend told me he would share his "adult content" with me and he said he'd share his hentai with me but I couldn't 🍆 to it. Then my other roommate was like, what else are you supposed to do with it? follow the plot?

    Yeah, I never expected a Scottish viewer on my video game stream to mention futanari. My Japanese ancestors would be proud to know how hard Japanese softpower is making people.

    You can't both call it niche and also say the whole world is watching.

    Niche? What year is it 1995?

    In my experience, everyone has been aware of hentai since 1995. What’s less popularly understood is non-pornographic anime and manga. This is proven by the many times in my life someone has taken one glance at my screen and asked “Are you looking at porn?” Yep, I’m watching tentacle hentai right in the middle of this Wendy’s.

    Doesn't matter now, they will just use AI for everything.
