Is Lum a loli??? Tomobikanon 4/25/24 (Thu) 20:47:34 No.583

So I'm sure we're all familiar with that episode of uy where the school gets a new hard ass teacher who instantly starts crushing on lum (can't remember episode number). anyway, sensei gets called a lolicon for being into lum-chan. but lum isn't what we'd think of a loli. she's married, full sized, and has big tits even if she's the same age as ataru which is still kinda old for a loli. So I went and looked around at the loli hentai that was being made in the mid 80s and so far its what you'd expect. but its not like i'm the lolimaster or something and know what i'm talking about... r-right fed-chan? so did the word's meaning change? did the whole flat chested bratty midget thing come later? afaik lolicon means like "pedophile" in modern Japanese. gotta be a loli history guide somewhere. Anyway I'm high as fuck and probably reading too much into things. Gonna go take a nap.

High Quality post, I mean it. I love such ramblings.
To my knowledge Loli is every girl who still has the body of a child, meaning they didn't reach puperty yet, what translates to their body didn't develope yet. Obviously visable at all the body parts such as chest, hips, legs and behind. Lum definetely is not a loli, so I guess it's a translation error.

Right but lolicon is inspired by Nabakov's Lolita. In that novel Dolores is like between 12 and 14 underage early teen and people at that age can still look prepubescent but not necessarily. so what's the cutoff point for loli? Or is it the little girl aesthetic that's important? Or does an underage girl only become a loli when she becomes the center of an older man's lolita complex? Would that even make sense to an alien Oni like Lum? I'm sure its not a translation error because you can hear cherry use the word "lolikon" in Japanese pretty clearly. Lemme see... Its episode 16 when Kuribayashi shows up.

W-wait! if lum is a loli does that mean lumfrens a-are..... LOL_ICONS?!!!

I think you're correct on how lolicon in Japanese is used in a similar way to "pedophile" in English, though it has a somewhat different connotation to it.
E.g. I'm pretty certain someone who is obsessed with high school girls and their uniforms would be called a lolicon for being interested in underage girls in general, even though high school girls rarely fall within the "lolita" category of character archetypes in say anime and manga.

There's a simmilar case to this in Castle of Cagliostro when Lupin calls count Cagliostro a lolicon though Clarisse also clearly doesn't fall into the archetype either.

This is similar to how Shinobu is called "jailbait" once when the term used really just meant that she looked young or something similar with a less heavy connotation.

I rather have low activity then. It's called having patience Lumfren. This isn't the worst thread I've seen, but I wouldn't call this "high quality" by any means.

Huh, I thought lolicon and pedophile weren't the same. At least that's how its used on the English side of the net.

>Would that even make sense to an alien Oni like Lum?
Interesting question.. I wonder what alien sexual mores are like? Knowing the Oni its probably something quite silly.

>does an underage girl only become a loli when she becomes the center of an older man's lolita complex?
IRL I'd lean to this but obviously not with 2D content where there's an obvious aesthetic archetype. So Lum is both a loli and not a loli. She's a loli because an older man wants to sleep with her in the world of series but also not a loli by our general aesthetic standard of what counts as loli. Schrodinger's loli.
