The basics:
Ero guro nansensu, frequently shortened to ero guro or just guro, (エログロ ero-guro?) was a literary and artistic movement originating circa 1930 in Japan. Ero guro puts its focus on eroticism, sexual corruption and decadence. While ero guro is a specific movement, many of its components can be found throughout Japanese history and culture.
The term itself is an example of wasei-eigo, a Japanese combination of English words or abbreviated words: ero from "ero(tic)", guro from "gro(tesque)", and nansensu from "nonsense". In actuality the "grotesqueness" implied in the term refers to things that are malformed, unnatural, or horrific. Items that are pornographic and bloody are not necessarily ero guro, and ero guro is not necessarily pornographic or bloody. The term is often used incorrectly by western audiences to mean "gore"—depictions of horror, blood, and guts.
Ero guro nansensu is characterized as a "prewar, bourgeois cultural phenomenon that devoted itself to explorations of the deviant, the bizarre, and the ridiculous.
The word grotesque comes from the same Latin root as grotto, "a small cave" (which itself originated from Greek κρύπτη krypte, "hidden place").
Since at least the 18th century (in French and German as well as English), grotesque has come to be used as a general adjective for the strange, fantastic, ugly, incongruous, unpleasant, or disgusting, and thus is often used to describe weird shapes and distorted forms such as Halloween masks.
In art, performance, and literature, however, grotesque may also refer to something that simultaneously invokes in an audience a feeling of uncomfortable bizarreness as well as sympathetic pity.
Rémi Astruc has argued that although there is an immense variety of motifs and figures, the three main tropes of the grotesque are doubleness, hybridity and metamorphosis. Beyond the current understanding of the grotesque as an aesthetic category, he demonstrated how the grotesque functions as a fundamental existential experience. Moreover, Astruc identifies the grotesque as a crucial, and potentially universal, anthropological device that societies have used to conceptualize alterity and change.
Anyone have any decent fire guro?
Burned at the stake is okay but I'm looking for something a bit rarer. stuff like being cremated alive in a crematorium/incinerator/furnace or getting blasted with a flamethrower or getting doused in gasoline and set on fire. I was gonna lurk on gurochan for this stuff but it's down, again.
tl;dr post fire/burning guro if you've got it.
is anybody well versed enough in moon runes to translate these?
I made some pics in Kisekae 2 of a girl committing suicide. Enjoy.
Hi /guro/
Just wanted to let you know that you're more than welcome to stop by >>>/gore/ once in a while to share some good guro and advertise your board… if you are into that sort of thing.

Taking Guro Requests
Hi 8ch, I've been doing some 20 min.guro doodles lately, thought it might be interesting to take a few requests.
Females only, I prefer to draw generic girls (not characters from any franchise) nude or in a uniform killed in cold blood.
Give her a name while you are at it too. Oh and criticisms are welcome.
Ps: I don't do scat, furry or lolis, sorry.
Thought /guro/ might find this interesting: イルカ の 夢 で さようなら (Goodbye with the Dolphin Dream)
http://www.geocities.co.jp/AnimeComic-Cell/9459/10.html
You click on the girl to kill her, but after that it's just based on horror (and there's jumpscares some time after the squares).
There's sound, also.

Those are the tags of this board. Why isn't there a guro tag? There is one for that redundant /brains/ board.
I mean sure, it is in the title but having it as a tag too wouldn't hurt either.

Photoshop thread - guro resources
Sup /guro/
I've come across this picture not so long ago, and I thought this might be photo shopped since the anime's so lovey dovey. Does anyone have animu guro resource pics I can use to edit animu girls into domestic abused victims?
I would personally love black&blue wounds, small cuts, scissors or blades I can lay onto pictures, anything like that. If you do have, please post anon. Let's make this a save and share thread.
I will also post photoshops of mine, in case I do get any material or happen to find/make one.

Looking for an image
There was an image I remember, you were looking out from the open mouth of a creature. Kneeling on the ground, crying, was a cat-eared character; bound with the creature's tounge around it. Cannot find that image, does anyone have it?Here are some on-topic images
Good? Does anyone want more?
Discussion/Meta
First off, thanks to whoever made the board for taking initiative, and to others for participating and keeping it relatively active.What happened to gurochan, anyway? I assume whoever was running it just ran outta money. But then where did the community go? Is this board it, or are there other places for guro fans to congregate?
I can't find anything like it.
But i'm looking for heads being pulling from spines and the girls seeming to know it's happening in their eyes.
Pic Unrelated.
I've no guro on my PC. As it's something i've only recently got into.
Its inevitable
Its indefatigable
Its intangible
Its indifferent
Its inescapable
Its impenetrable
Its imperfect
Its impersonated often
Its a idol
>Japan censors benis and bagina
>does not censor this shit
Congratulations, /guro/,
you are less fucked in the head than an 130millions' country's legal system!
