>Do you have a favorite shota character?
No. There are too many cute boys to choose, I just can't pick only one. From young Link, who was my first crush ever and the one who made me a shotacon, to new cute boys like Allister who check all of my boxes. I can't decide D:
>What's your favorite shota anime or manga?
Probably
Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun (1st pic). The combination of beautiful art, adorable characters, and a sad mystery surrounding them is really great. I sincerely recommend this manga regardless of what you normally like, the art alone makes it worth checking.
>Any good shows/comics you're reading right now?
Besides Hanako-kun other series with shotas that I'm following are:
Kemono Jihen (2nd pic) - is a standard battle shonen anime with a couple of interesting twists (like the MC being almost immortal
and not knowing about standard human behavior because he worked alone in the fields during his entire life) and lots of shotabait (for example, the MC tends to get naked during fights because he continuously destroys and regenerates his body).
Mairimashita! Iruma-Kun - a story about a 14yo boy named Iruma who can't say no to anything and is sold to a high demon by his parents. Said demon decides to raise him as his grandson and sends him to a demon school, so now Iruma needs to hide the fact he's human to avoid being devoured by other demons while trying to approve classes about things he doesn't know or can't do.
Pokemon - I watch a couple of chapters from time to time. It's exactly the same it has been during the past 20 years, except that this time Ash's travel partner is another (cute) boy named Gou, creating a mechanic similar to Gon and Killua's, although way simpler.
Duranki - Miura's (†) last creation. It's about an hermaphrodite boy/girl that secretly is the last child of the Gods. This child was raised by a couple of farmers as a regular human kid, but since s/he has divine blood s/he can communicate with the spirits of nature. As usual the publication speed is very slow, and only 6 chapters have been published, so there isn't a lot to talk about yet.
Beckoning Kitty Tatamaru - This a Japanese virtual youtuber I listen to from time to time and whose fanart I collect because his design is cute as fuck. Since I don't know Japanese I'm assuming he simply talks about a variety of topics and engages in casual chat.
Aside from these shota-focused series, I'm following these ones:
Tensei Shitara Slime AKA
Reincarnated as a slime - is an isekai manga where the MC reincarnates as an OP slime that literally eats its way into becoming the demon king of his own country.
Mieruko-chan - A manga about a high school girl who one day becomes able to see all kinds of spirits, most of them horrific in nature. Now she tries her best to pretend she doesn't see them so they don't attack her (or worse).
I Became the Mother of the Strongest Demon Lord's 10 Children in Another World. - Another isekai, this time about a middle school girl who is transported to a demon world with the purpose of giving birth (with magic, because this is a family friendly manga) to the demon king's 10 children. The manga focuses on her new life as the demon king's wife and inexperienced mother, and is 100% Shinzo Abe-approved.
Shadows House - A manga about a female little humanoid doll that happily serves her more serious master (which looks like her except that she's pitch black and releases strange black dust all the time) despite not knowing how she ended there or why she's doing it. Is a mystery-horror manga.
Creature Girls - Another isekai where a scientist is transported to a world full of "monsters" that actually are extreme evolutions of humans and other creatures (like centaurs being the evolution of conjoined twins, or slimes actually being huge hives of worms). Magic doesn't exist there, and certain forms of technology are forbidden by the universe, so now the MC needs to invent more archaic things to survive and form his desired harem (lel).
Jinmen - For some reason the animals at a local safari got human faces and sapience, and now they're in a crusade against humanity. The MC used to visit the animals every day and be their friend, but now he needs to survive the carnage while figuring a way to stop it and turn the animals back to normal.
