Ecchi : ウィキペディア英語版
Ecchi

is an often used slang term in the Japanese language for playfully sexual actions. As an adjective, it is used with the meaning of "sexy", "dirty" or "naughty"; as a verb, , with the meaning to have sex; or as a noun, to describe someone that is seen as lecherous. It is perhaps softer than the Japanese word ''ero'' (エロ from Eros), and does not imply perversion in the way hentai does.
The word ''ecchi'' has been adopted by fans of Japanese media to describe works with sexual overtones. In Japanese, the word ''ecchi'' is often used to describe a person's conduct, but in fandom, it has come to be used to refer to softcore or playful sexuality, as distinct from the word ''hentai'', which connotes perversion or fetishism.〔 Works described as ecchi do not show sexual intercourse or genitalia, but sexual themes are referenced. ''Ecchi'' themes are a type of fan service, and can be found in most comedy shōnen and seinen manga and harem anime.〔Robin E. Brenner: ''Understanding manga and anime.'' Libraries Unlimited, 2007, ISBN 978-1-59158-332-5, p. 89.〕〔Ask John: (Why Do Americans Hate Harem Anime? ). animenation.net. May 20. 2005. Note: fan service and ecchi refer to similar concepts.〕
== Etymology and use in Japan ==
The correct transcription of the word in Hepburn notation is "etchi."〔After the sources of the article Hepburn romanization. In Hepburn, the sokuon (っ, small ''tsu'') is romanized ''t'' before ''ch''.〕 However, it is typically written as "ecchi".
In the word 'hentai,'(変態) the first kanji 'hen' refers to strangeness, and the second kanji 'tai' refers to a condition or state. "Hentai" was introduced in the Meiji period as a term for ''change of form'' or ''transformation'' in science and psychology. In this context, it was used to refer to disorders such as hysteria or to describe paranormal phenomena like hypnosis or telepathy. Slowly the meaning expanded until it had the meaning of ''non standard''. In the 1910s, it was used in sexology in the compound expression "hentai seiyoku" (, ''abnormal sexual desire'') and became popular within the theory of sexual deviance (''Hentai seiyoku ron''), published by Eiji Habuto and Jun′ichirō Sawada in 1915. In the 1920s, many publications dealt with deviant sexual desires and the Ero Guro Nansensu movement. Matsuzawa calls it a period characterized by a "''hentai boom''".〔Goichi Matsuzawa (1997). ''Meiji, Taishō, Shōwa, kindai fūzoku shuppan no rekishi, Ero no hon''. Tokyo. Wani no ana. p. 55〕 In the 1930s, censorship became more common leading to fewer books being published on this theme.〔Sabine Frühstück (2003). ''Colonizing Sex: Sexology and Social Control in Modern Japan''. University of California Press. ISBN 0-520-23548-7. p. 15〕
After the war, in the 1950s, interest in hentai was renewed, and people would sometimes refer to it just by the first English letter, ''H'' (pronounced as , ). In 1952, the magazine ''Shukan Asahi'' reported that a woman who was groped by a stranger in a movie theater reacted with ''"ara etchi yo"'' (''"hey, that's perverse"''). In this context, "etchi" must be understood as ''sexually forward'' and is synonymous to ''iyarashii'' (, dirty or disgusting) or ''sukebe'' (, a person with sex on the brain). From this, the word "etchi" started to branch off, and assume new connotations. In the 1960s, etchi started to be used by youth to refer to sex in general. By the 1980s, it was used to mean ''sex'' as in the phrase ''etchi suru'' (to have sex).〔〔Mark McLelland (2006). ''A Short History of 'Hentai'''. In: ''Intersections: Gender, History and Culture in the Asian Context''. Vol. 12.〕
Other neologisms such as ''sekkusu'' are often used to refer to sex, in addition to the term "ecchi." Ecchi is now used as a qualifier for anything related to erotic or pornographic content. Its exact meaning varies with context, but in general, it is most similar to the English word "naughty" (when used as an adjective). The Japanese media tend to use other words, e.g. ''ero-manga'' (), ''adult manga'' (), or anime / manga for persons over 18 years (, ). The prefix "H-" is also sometimes used to refer to pornographic genres, e.g. H-anime, H-manga, etc.
