What is a "good" H-scene.

[Kurisu-Chan]

Please, this is an existential question i have yet to answer it...because i often see people arguing about how bad or how good a H-scene is, the question is...what do make an H-scene, basically sex, interesting, good or bad?

 

How do you consider an H-scene well writen? What are the things you expect from an H-scene? And Finally...why do i ask such questions today?

[Yuuko]

H-scene is good for me if it has CG that looks good and it's not like this:

"Hey I like you <3"

"I like you too<3"

"Wanna fuck?"

"Oh sure!"

[Nosebleed]

I expect an H-scene to make my nether region feel something, nothing more and nothing less.

Imo most h-scenes are all cliche and written the same way, what differs is wether or not the description managed to "pike my interest" and if the on screen imagery looked good.

Sure you can argue it's relevant to the plot, i personally don't care much, i just don't want it to be nonsensical.

[Kaguya]

In my opinion, it's a scene which helps move forward the plot in some way, not just an excuse for porn. Of course, this only applies to story-focused stuff.

In a nukige, for example, a good sex scene is (do remember that my opinion is the objective truth) heavy S&M play that doesn't sound too ridiculous.

[Joris914]

For me the most important thing is imagery. As long as the girl is hot and the art looks good, I don't really care about the script. Well, I guess VA quality also makes a big difference, moreso than what's actually being said. I also don't care if a scene is relevant to the story or not, if it isn't I can just go back to it later in the replay mode.

Another really important thing for me is that both (or all) parties are having a great time. Rape doesn't do anything for me. Best is when Protag-san just completely fucks the sense out of a heroine, in a good way.

As a last thing, I'm not quite as pessimistic as many people here when it comes to "all scenes are written in the same cliché way", I actually think there's quite a bit of variety in it.

 

 

 

 

Of course, none of this matters as long as there's ANAL

[Funnerific]

- Purity of both partners

- Some funny quirk like the heroine peeing when she orgasms

- Rape scenes, or scenes with rape victim heroines

- "Sitting" position

 

Anything can be ruined by horrible writing though.

I would say good H-scene is something that fits in the ongoing story and is meaningful for character development. 

For the contents it's hard to say, different people like different stuff, but I feel like there should be something more than just pandering to certain preferences.  

 

Then again I don't use H-scenes to satisfy myself, so my interest is mostly in the story part. I wouldn't say H-scene is good because it fits my preferences, if it feels out of place I don't usually like it.

Still many of the most enjoyable H-scenes I've read comes from Sengoku Rance, so I'm not so sure myself.

 

Anyways, what I'm trying to say is enjoyable H-scene is not always good H-scene and good H-scene doesn't have to be enjoyable, if it fits the story.

[kokoneos]

I guess a good h-scene makes you feel excited in some way or another. I would say that the most important thing is the situation of the scene and the CG since I don't really like vanilla.

Of course the voice acting also has an important role.

[BookwormOtaku]

For me it's a combination of good artwork, voice acting and writing either to get a good rise out of me or to capture the emotions leading into the scene and then leading into the former.

[LinovaA]

If it evokes some kind of reaction in me other than just me wanting to just skim it.. then it is good. xD

 

... and I am pretty easy to please.

[Tesla]

Really it all depends if the development leading up to the H scene feels natural. If the protagonist/heroine just wants to fuck out of the blue then it just bothers me a bit. 

in the end it's all fapping fodder so I don't care most of the time

[Chuee]

The one's that successfully make you ejaculate.  

[Stray Cat]

[Bolverk]

Mainly three reasons for me. Either It's Eroi, or it's a plot device driving the story somehow. Or lastly it's comical.

[Eclipsed]

One that you can fap to.

Preferably animated CGs

And background voices

~~

Story wise pls develop the romance properly instead of the whole sex within 24 hours of confessing to each other

[suikashoujo]

In terms of writing, I prefer that it be somewhere in the middle when it comes to how descriptive it is. So while, say, Air's scenes are an example of too little description, Eroge! from Clockup has so much (especially with the heroines constantly talking during sex, which is kind of a turn off) That it's not very enjoyable. Anything that's not at one of those extremes is fine, assuming that the art doesn't suck and the voice actresses aren't giving cringeworthy performances.

[atorq]

A good H-scene has enough buildup for me to buildup. Heh. Then it should also be long enough for me to finish my business, but not too long because reading the text after the deed is done usually isn't all that great. A good H-scene should also have appealing art and it's a big plus if it's not  the standard script with the reluctant females. Majikoi has mostly good H-scenes, My Girlfriend is the President also had some nice scenes. Bad scenes would be scenes from Kanon and other I only remember vaguely. But all H-scenes are better than none. Most of the time. At least half of the time.

[Pudding321]

any h-scene in fate/stay night because the protag needs it for mana...JUSTIFIED

[Deep Blue]

when it's related to the plot aka saya no uta...

[Getsuya]

One with animations.

[Heizei_koukousei]

-Not too much moaning

-Not too long

-Realistic/accurate size proportions (I mean come on if were going to have sex scenes anyway)

[Nosebleed]

-Realistic 

[Chronopolis]

Realistic sex would be the most awkward thing to witness ever, pls no.

[Nosebleed]

Realistic from a story perspective, where unpleasant stuff is idealized, however the characters should still be *themselves*. Mah w/e alternatively if it's eroi it's eroi.

[Deep Blue]

Well I think most VNs fail at making the transition because the characters are usually all sweet innocent virgin girls who don't even know what the male genitalia looks like and when the sex happens and they're suddenly all into it it feels off, but to be honest I've just accepted this as typical hentai and don't care much about it anymore and I don't think there's any other way around it. Like you said, if it's eroi it's eroi.

Funny enough I've met a 19 year old girl who didn't know what the male genitalia looked like either, so I guess it is possible to find a super innocent girl in real life given the right circumstances, and yes I am using past tense for this, and no I wasn't the one who changed the situation.
