Ok even for Japanese art that's odd. This is the country that has the Fisherman's Wife

There are many playful variations on the theme, including Ito Jakuchu’s Vegetable Parinirvana.

God bless Japan's weird sexual art.

For real though it's wild how you can find art from hundreds of years ago that are so similar to some of the hentai/doujins we have today. I've definitely seen hentai where people turn into dicks. And then there's the tentacle stuff. I mean I get that this sort of art isn't necessarily pornographic in nature but clearly it's a thing that's lived on to modern times and inspired some of their more pornographic media.

Weird but awesome.

Whole new spin on dickhead and pussyface.

If you didn't know what genitals were you'd assume these were two different species gathered in the woods.

I need this, it would go very well with the "Madonna and Cockroach" wood block print I have.

Replying to Jindujun (#1,157,217)

Uh uh. The weirdest thing about Tako to Ama (Octopus and the Pearl Diver) is that it is part of a 90-page epic by legendary Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai, who also painted Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji, including the iconic The Great Wave off Kanagawa.

It would be like having Monet paint the plates for an illustrated 120 Days of Sodom.
