ScArls > I would rather the doujinshi be focused on the storyline. The most important element that is on par with art is the storyline. I am not going to just read something just purely for sex.

For a person to think that sex can and will be a sound substitute for storyline, I feel rather sorry for that person.

I think it´s sad people still have such a problem with one of
the most normal things i the world….sex!
And it´s drawn so nobody has been hurt in the making of the H-scenes
only possible the artists hand….
Grow up and stop lying to your self.

Yes, you are correct, double, they’re hard to find, sadly.
And yes, there’s a sea of ecchi of there, which I’m not a fan of. Gotta make that clear. It’s rather difficult to browse doujinshi without getting exposed to those vulgar-over-the-top hentai mangas. But there’s obviously a “market” for it, since people keep making it. I reckon most japanese love to see their all time favorite character getting screwed over. And others love to draw it.

[...] shall take back my comments from the doujinshi post I wrote a few days back. Doujinshi can be as awesome as, or even be on a higher level than official [...]

One > Those are the ones that are difficult to find. The H ones are plentiful.

Windbell > Any nice ones to recommend? I have no idea where to start or what circles to look for.

If you do take out the H part, there are still many interesting doujins that have very nice stories. Maybe you need to read more instead of sticking to EVA ^^;

I agree with you on the excessive H part. However there are some interesting doujins, such as the parody of Initial D featuring train drivers.

§oL > That’s because Rei’s not the main feature of Re-Take. Still, it is impressive.

Aeternus > Original Doujinshis are rare finds in the massive sea of doujin art. Breathtaking ones are even more difficult to obtain, hence my lack of exposure to them.

Well, your own opinion is fine and all, but doujinshi doesn’t necessary need to be plagarism of others original work (though more often than not, it is). There’s also original doujinshi out there, some of which spawned popular manga and anime. Excel Saga and Lucky Star are the only ones I remember right now, though.

Like you, I consider myself a “only-buy-official-brand-stuff”-kinda of guy, but I’m fully aware of the original doujinshis out there, and some of them are worth taking a look at.

Yay, finally you post pictures of Asuka instead of Rei. Well, I’ve not read much doujin myself, but I guess most people read it for the H.

One of my favourite is some Nanoha doujin(I forgot who drew it). It was more laugh then sex, and that probably appeals to me more. Dun get me wrong, I just don’t wanna see some KyonXHaruhi or AkiraXMinoru. Disgusting.
