A quick glance suggests that this artist has a reasonably extensive history of drawing dating back to 2013 according to HentaiFoundry. Their Twitter profile is sparse on WIPs but has a few as far as back as 2019, so I’m inclined to give them the benefit of the doubt and say it’s just some jank on their part.
I totally appreciate the second opinion though; glad it wasn’t just me that thought about it.
Loving the look but I had to do a double-take on that foot. 👀 Some people suggest it’s the heel of her foot, which kinda tracks as long as you accept that the perspective on the foot is super weird.
If it’s the art style you like, you might try looking through other pieces by this artist on boorus like Gelbooru/Danbooru. Not every single one is drawn and shaded in that style, but it beats nothing.
I’m sure there are also other artists that share some similarities, but I can’t name any off the top of my head. Let me know if you find some!
Saucenao says it was drawn by Yabuki Kentarou, who is known as the artist for To-Love Ru and related series. It has a post on Yande.re.
Google reverse image search also brings me to an article from ANN that says it’s the cover of one of Japan’s Weekly Playboy mags.
I don’t see any indication that it’s a particular character or person, but I also can’t read Japanese so no idea if there’s anything in the text that would suggest that.
I was thinking it was attached to something, but both sound pretty good to me haha
GIFs worked for me a little over a week ago on !hentaigif but I haven’t tested it super extensively. I generally also upload as WebP but that one was already a GIF so I didn’t feel like converting it to WebP like I usually would.
I’m all for team kitty for the titty. 🍈
However, I feel the cat should be tied to the pussy instead of the dog, but that’s probably just me, haha
My preference is to name the character and artist directly somewhere, usually in the title. It also works for searching when put in the description too. As long as you actually name the character/artist somewhere, it should work. Thanks for posting and asking!
If I had the time and energy to do it, I’d probably build a sauce bot to look it up and write it out automatically, but I’m lazy.
She needn’t worry. The feeling’s mutual~
Damn, Lantern Rite ain’t even over! I would though.
No kidding, that render is on-point. I legit thought this was an actual recording before I expanded the thumbnail. Thanks for sharing.

MOD NOTE: This post is more suggestive than explicit but it’s original content and it still looks good! We’ve done the same with other posts that are more along the lines of ecchi than hentai too. This one probably belongs on something like !lewdanimegirls@lemmynsfw.com though.
If anyone’s wondering why it has basically no title, I think that’s because that’s how it was posted on Mastodon, but I’ll reach out to the artist to let’em know.
The artist is WaterRing, iirc. Good stuff! More cute than lewd for my tastes, but always nice to see.
Rare to see Kafka looking surprised. Is it bigger than she thought or maybe even better than she expected? :P
I don’t think you need to know who I am or who is posting (and if you did, you should go elsewhere, as you noted). It’s enough that you and I are thinking about how votes fit in the community aspect of things (aka sorting things out “naturally” without a special care).
I mistook your stance on downvotes as being all or nothing - if we’re both on votes only being for community members (and I’m still open to putting it back to everyone if/when this instance is bigger), then we’re on the same page.
without a real vote by everyone
I do agree that it may have been hasty to enact the initial downvote restriction without any broader vote. I managed to get my input in, but I that was only on the ModCoord comm I linked you. There was some additional discussion on Matrix, but I only saw that after the fact. I only visit once or twice a day to post and take breaks when my life is busy, so I was also surprised to see the announcement when I came back. The second vote also didn’t include a “no restrictions” vote either, so I suppose that wasn’t an option they wanted to explore.
do anybody realy care if poster have checked votes he got on a post? Who of the readers care?
If readers vote and no one checks, there would be no point. I just look at what gets upvotes and try to post more of that type of content so that readers will have more posts to look through the next time they visit that they’re more likely to like (or if they don’t, they know to block that community and move on).
The popularity of my posts or the total number of funny Internet points is meaningless to me. I do not need it to be “popular” or “viral”, nor is Lemmy a good platform to try that (especially on LemmyNSFW, which is defederated by some other notable instances).
I personally gain nothing by posting; if anything, I’d rather by downloading more hentai instead of posting it myself. I only do this because I want other people to join me and share content so that I can eventually download their posts myself somewhere besides Reddit, which has only gotten worse at that.
pointing to such public discusion with public votes.
Public discussion with public votes is limited, but readers still retained the ability to comment with their disagreements in the official announcement posts and the follow-up poll leading up to relaxing downvote restrictions to community members:
Re: Downvotes
Freedom of expression is important, and is part of why you and I are here, but freedom cannot exist without some limits. Downvotes were disabled for a number of reasons, but the biggest one I could see was that some types of content get substantially downvoted despite being appropriate for their communities. How can members of that community express what they like if other, potentially uninvolved people, keep downvoting it?
It’s not about “protecting snowflakes”, but instead, just making room for other communities and interests. No one’s asking you or anyone to go love every single fetish out there, just leave’em alone if you’re not interested.
For me, it has been a successful change. Content that fits in the communities I’m involved in continue to see better upvote counts, while content that doesn’t is seeing next to none (or even negative).
Re: Back To Original Topic
In my original post, I cited both reasons to go back to Reddit or stay on LemmyNSFW for NSFW content. I think we both know we disagree on the topic of downvotes, so let’s not get stuck on that. Is there anything else you wanted consider that we haven’t discussed?
EDIT: Accidentally cut out my note about why votes matter and never added it back in. Fixed. EDIT2: Clarified “who of the readers care?”
I think it’s a fair question. I’m only here because I want options besides Reddit for NSFW content. I also don’t think Reddit has done enough to preserve access to NSFW content or third-party apps (and their official app is terrible for me), so I would like to help build other options.
Unfortunately, Reddit is still a much more popular option. People don’t have many good reasons to choose LemmyNSFW for now as long as Reddit still has most things people want:
I would say it’s “hard to choose” Lemmy if you don’t care about having alternatives to Reddit that might be healthier.
It doesn’t get any better though if no one tries to make other options exist, so I hope that posting and commenting will help other people choose LemmyNSFW in the future if Reddit makes more unpopular decisions.
About your 7th Point: I think readers are still very important here. I and others consider lurkers/readers in a few ways:
I think change can be hard, but I hope you can recognize that the moderators and administrators are open to trying something new, just like how using Lemmy is something new. There are even decisions I disagree with, but the alternative of being solely dependent on Reddit is still worse.
I’ve only had success with posting links to animated WebP files, which preview and display correctly in the default web UI. It doesn’t seem to work perfectly across the variety of apps and their handling of images though.
I think @NotAGuyInAHat mentioned that they use EZgif to do it. I generate them locally with FFmpeg, though that’s a little technical.
Late to conversation, but my two-cents: downvoting content you don’t like in a community you’re subbed to is one thing, but I wonder about the number of drive-by downvotes that come from people who aren’t even subbed to the community.
If downvotes are supposed to be a form of community moderation, then it doesn’t seem productive to allow visitors to downvote something when they aren’t even a part of that community and unfamiliar with its rules and expectations. (This is easily circumvented by temporarily subscribing, of course, but hopefully they don’t hate it that much.) I’m not so strongly impacted by this to suggest disabling it entirely, but maybe disabling it if you’re unsubbed might be helpful.
I only hold this view because the default frontpage view is set to Local by default instead of Subscribed.
That might work OK on more homogenized instances, but given that we’ve all got our own niche tastes, I’m not sure it’s appropriate for this instance. I personally never browse Local because I’m not interested in most of the content there, but I don’t downvote everything I see. Unfortunately, asking users to change their settings or behavior will probably get you nowhere.
