Ecchi Leads to Hentai

Tummies aren’t sexual to everyone, but Girls and Tummies understands that with some context, stomachs are more interesting. This collection has its share of cutesy ecchi similar to doujin like The Ultimate Himopan Collection, but it doesn’t stop there. Topless anime girls in particular are scattered throughout. If you’re looking for more, just get an eyeful of the sample images I’ve included to see what I mean. The art comes along with short vignette stories, and so goes from teasing moments to sexual stills fast. Girls and Tummies is straight-up hentai, emphasizing more than stomachs.

Stomach for Detail

As an art book, rather than a plot-based doujinshi, Girls and Tummies is reliant on its art, and this one is a treat. The detail here is real, and the best of it isn’t reserved for navel-gazing. A small selection includes:

• Pantyhose (and playing with the texture of the hose)
• Swimsuits, of course, because what piece of clothing shows off a woman’s navel more often than a swimsuit?
• Teasing. Lots and lots of teasing. Why else would these characters show off for the art book?
• Wetness. From water and otherwise.

Teasing at Theme

Made up of multiple volumes rolled into one, Girls and Tummies is light on story, but there is a theme: teasing. Each girl, with her own outfit and personality label, is playfully engaging with the point-of-view character. So while there’s no narrative or plot to follow here, there are different methods of being playfully seduced before skipping to the action. Speaking of the POV, the publication is intentionally designed to let the teasing land squarely on the reader, mostly in a first-person style that has the star girl engaged in sexual encounters with an off-screen main character. Mostly. There’s a faceless dude in a couple of panels that breaks that pattern.

Navel Teasing

With 64 pages of stomach and navel-focused action, Girls and Tummies couldn’t have a clearer title. Brought to you in English by J18 Publishing, and created by Mignon, you can find it from JList here, and you can find an expansive selection of other J18 Publishing hard copies here.
