I'm so confused.
I'm often seeing things like "Naruto dj" and "Infinite Stratos dj" when looking for new things to read.
What does the 'dj' mean?
From the content, I can tell it's hentai stuff, but what's the actual meaning?
Searched on the internet: no avail
🙁
Please let me know! 🙂

Doujinshi, also known as 'fan-made manga' by a person or a group of people. It may not even be manga. Quite a fair bit of it is sex-related, and they usually use the characters from an official published series in their fan-made manga.

In Western cultures, dōjin are often perceived to be derivative of existing work, analogous to fan fiction. To an extent, this is true: many dōjin are based on popular manga, anime or video game series. However, many dōjin with completely original content also exist. It is also important to note that among the numerous dōjin categories, dōjinshi (同人誌?) are the ones getting by far the most exposure outside of Japan. It is also true to a certain extent in Japan itself, as dōjinshi are by tradition the most popular and numerous dōjin products.
