post #235646 - Currently rated Q. Small glimpse of breast, seems totally non-sexual; can this be Safe?

I dunno... looks kinda fishy to me.

EDIT: On a serious note, I'd agree on changing it to S.

many more. spread_legs pussy should in most cases count as "blatantly exposed genitalia".

Just looking at the thumbnails, all of those are explicit.

I agree, the genitals are way too prominent for Q. However, most of the edits were changed by Hazuki himself, so I would like to hear his reasoning.

Borderline questionable? Also, is it loli?

Deleted for being a WTF photoshop of a Shana image.

The genitals may be clearly visible in those pictures, but they don't put the focus on the anatomical features of the vulva. Consider the difference, in detail and mood, between post #881133 (Portrait of a Nude Woman) and post #603846 ("Hey guys, check out my hot, dripping and blatantly exposed elemental reactor!").

Personally I would agree with you, but they're both still blatantly exposed under howto:rate; the difference is one is more tasteful than the other. It's already hard enough for people to learn what the word "explicit" means, much less taste and interpretation of art.

Then we have post #908637, which I thought was surely Q, yet Hazuki personally changed to E. It's starting to look arbitrary.

That one is definitely explicit. Hair, extra detail, the pose.

Very well, but what are your thoughts on the posts S1eth brought up?

I'd tag them all explicit just to keep things simple. None of the poses really fall under the very narrow range I'd make available to q genitals. Spread legs is much too intentional a focus on genitalia to ignore, I feel.

post #913502

Everything is covered and there's no cameltoe either, so why questionable rating ? To me it still falls under ecchi category.

That image is far too provocative for an S rating.

post #942011

Does it fall under "safe" ecchi or it should stay questionable due to kinda provocative depiction of undressing activity in it ?

I'd leave it at Q, personally.

Questionable.

everything is covered and the picture comes off as very casual about it. looks safe to me.

Thanks. Before I came along it was inexplicably rated E.
