Lolicon (ロリコン), also romanized as rorikon or lolicom, is, in Japanese contexts, an attraction to young girl characters, or media centered around this attraction. A Japanese portmanteau of the English phrase "Lolita complex", the term describes this attraction to fictional girls, an individual with this attraction, or the lolicon genre of media such as manga and anime, in which "lolis" are depicted in the aesthetic of "cute eroticism". While associated with pedophilia in the Japanese public imagination, scholars and critics assert that lolicon, in the context of otaku culture, is nearly always the attraction to fictional girl characters, as distinct from the attraction to realistic depictions of young girls, or real girls as such.
