The Lolita Complex: - Scholarly Commons Home

While examples of lolicon and or hentai (or moving lolicon) very rarely
portray the Gothloli, they do exist and therefore she is nonetheless attached
by association due to the fact that she is both a child and Lolita (Figs 87 &
88). *

* I have periodically trawled through online lolicon and hentai imagery to ascertain how much
material appropriates the Gothloli identity. This is a dangerous task that should be carried out with
care as these types of images are often attached to viruses and can cause the computer to freeze,
crash or worse. However, I feel confident that I can make this statement in regard to the internet,
having attempted this type of research numerous times. As far as what is available in Japan, in other
formats such as printed material and moving-image media, I cannot say. I imagine though that the
relative scarcity of online examples would reflect the same ratio elsewhere.
