Hypno Hot Takes
I'm curious as to y'alls hypnosis related hot takes! Whether it's related to the community, the act itself, tropes, or anything else, post it here!

My hypno hot take is that hypnosis being a base for other fetishes to branch off of makes places like hypnohub SO MUCH HARDER to sift through. The amount of hypno related art that's just transformation with mind shifting makes finding other art a complete slog!

Preach! I couldn't have put it better myself.

Mine is that Zombie-walking has nothing to do with hypnosis and is overused in IRL hypnosis content. It's just jarring and the idea of it overshadows better suggestions that can be used in its place.

I don't like possession personally, most possession art here doesn't really feel like hypno to me

Agreed, possession just feels off. Especially male character's possessing female ones to act slutty. Like, dude you know that's still you in there right?

Another take is I fucking hate Kaa. People do realize he was trying to murder Mowgli, right?

My hot take is that the induction itself is where the eroticism truly lies. That gradual shift from full awareness to completely mindless contains within it a universe of untold possibilities, and instant induction mediums, such as possession, robotification, etc end up missing the real meat and potatoes of the fetish, to the point where'd I'd argue it's more of a different fetish entirely.

My hot take

We could appreciate more clothed stage hypnosis. Sure, I get it hypno fetish kinda has a sexual element to it and I am not immune to that either, but hypnosis being purely used as a mechanism for immediate sex or dick sucking or undressing kinda rubs me the wrong way.

As Bashirider states, the induction itself is also a hot factor. Mind control element is fine and good, but the entranced state and expression is the good stuff, at least for me.

Meh, I'm indifferent to nudity. This might be a hot take on its own, but I don't think nudity is inherently sexual.

My HYPNO hot take is... that body control is not hypnosis or mind control on its own. I mean it can be... but it's usually not implied and is often treated like it is. I also hate that prisoners in their own body trope. It kind of works when they're fighting another version of themselves created by the trance/mind control, etc. and maybe they either break free of or give in, but when they're just like screaming internally, that's not really something think is all that in line with what hypnosis is like.

If that makes sense...

Can agree and see what you're going with: Yeah, body control because hypnosis is a thing (such as the hand being stuck kinda thing due to suggestion), but body control by itself isn't necessarily hypnosis.

Guys what are those lukewarm aah takes, saying body control and possession are not mind control is the popular opinion at this point lol (okay hating kaa might be an actual hot take, it's true though). I agree with y'all 100% but you need to be more controversial. (I'm obviously not being serious, you can have all the takes you want, in fact have a cookie!)

My hot take is that hypno stories are better than captions, which are themselves better than (most) doujins, which are themselves better than single image posts. This is just the objective truth and you cannot argue against it ;3

This is because the more narrative == the better. Stories are amazing and made by fellow MC fetishists so they know all the good stuff. You might say "but wait, doujins have more narrative than captions" and like yeah but let's be honest 95% (source: trust me bro) of the doujins out there are MC slop where the only goal of MC is as a narrative device to get to sex >:c they don't put any effort in it. Whereas the caption makers, they know what's up, and it's always a delight to read!

See I agree most of these, including the take about hypno story supremacy. Most of my first favorites on here were captioned manips. I’d argue either I’m just a visual person and reading works for me, or hypno/mc just isn’t as good without the context. Would love to hear from someone who disagrees though.

My hot take is that programs like Kisekae and Custom Maid are good. I would rather a great story in kisekae than a bad story with great illustrations, and they usually work as starting points for artists to get their feet wet.

Kisekae kinda is a bit too limited, due to how it is stuck to one angle so its bound to get old pretty fast, although I can agree in spirit about the gateway to art. I am less sold on that actually leading to actual artistry, but I digress.

That's what I wanted to say, and I'm glad you're in the same camp. Less poof, you're under my control I command you to strip, suck dick or have sex and more fall deeper and imagine X kinda thing: have the subject visualize stuff to make things more believable... and more hot. There are a couple of bully rich girls kinda story, and what separates the good like Revenge Hypnosis from the rest IMO is the perspective of the subject

For sure for sure, for most doujins it truly feels like the author is using MC as an afterthought (tho they are some good ones).

It's sad cus then you see people criticizing the MC fetish by saying it's boring and a shortcut to a good narrative, but that's only because they've only been exposed to it through shitty narratives IMO.

Someone getting hypnotized into fucking can be very nice don't make me lie, but only when it's built up to and used to present a contrast in the subject to further drive in the effectiveness of the MC process.

That said, on the other side of it, I still think instant_loss is a pretty funny tag, always makes me giggle.

Mmh, I get that but at the same time if you're using Kisekae and the like to make a good story, I don't think you would lose much to just write the story without any illustrations honestly.

If your goal is to eventually draw full hypno stories, then you might as well start with sketching rather than a program like that, and if your goal is not necessarily to draw but just to write a good story, you can kind of ditch the program TBH.

I agree with pretty much all of this, although I do think that doujins have the potential to be better... they just aren't.

So, you want a hot take, do ya?

Okay! Fictional women with ridiculously massive breasts should be just as ridiculously easy to hypnotize, not more hypnotic! Nearly all the femdom captions on this site have the sexy anime waifus big breasts when they should be femsub captions!

My reasoning: Large breasts are stated to be a strain, which should make them more prone to relaxation tactics. Narratively speaking, large breasts are typically a source of engorged egos, which should make them overconfident to the point of folly.

That and, you know what they say... the bigger they are the harder they fall!

Lol! Stuff like this?

I'm sure MTie has more, they're very breasts focused.

Tis an interesting narrative point, that would mean that flat-chested women would be the most resistant to MC (truly, flat is justice). I wonder if there's a caption out there of somebody hypnotizing another through an absence of breasts rather than an overflow of it lol.

Those were great. Yeah that's pretty much what I mean. And flat is justice! Althought, I'd say that makes them light weights to hypnosis. The women with medium sized chests are the ones that have the most stable resistance.
I'd defitnitely read a story with a cute loli or tsundere being entranced by how feather-light they're body is or something. Just picturing a character being picked up while their angry pout melts into a dreamy smile... just nice.
