SHOTACON
Shotacon is a term that originated in Japan and refers to a genre within anime, manga, and other forms of media that portrays underage or young male characters in sexual or romantic contexts. The term is derived from the combination of "shōtarō" (a common given name for young boys) and "complex," indicating the fascination or attraction towards young boys. It is important to note that shotacon is often seen as controversial and illegal in some jurisdictions due to its depiction of minors in explicit or inappropriate situations.

Shotacon
Shotacon is a Japanese slang portmanteau of the phrase Shōtarō complex and describes an attraction to young boys. Outside Japan, the term is used less often with this meaning. It refers to a genre of manga and anime wherein pre-pubescent or pubescent male characters are depicted in a suggestive or erotic manner, whether in the obvious role of object of attraction, or the less apparent role of "subject", as in where the young male character is paired with a male, usually in a homoerotic manner, or with a female, in which the general community would call straight shota. It can also apply to postpubescent characters with youthful neotenic features that would make them appear to be younger than they are. The phrase is a reference to the young male character Shōtarō from Tetsujin 28-go. The equivalent term for attraction to young girls is lolicon. The usage of the term in both Western and Japanese fan cultures includes works ranging from explicitly pornographic to mildly suggestive, romantic or in rare cases, entirely nonsexual, which is not usually classified as "true" shotacon. As with lolicon, shotacon is related to the concepts of kawaii and moe.
