The word ryona (リョナ, ryona, a portmanteauofryōki ("seeking the bizarre") and onanī ("masturbation")) is a type of sexual fetishinhentai wherein a protagonist is subject to sexual, physicalorpsychological abuse from an offender. The term is mostly used in connection to Japanese culture, although the themes of misogyny, misandry, sadomasochism, schadenfreude, compassion, exoticism and extremes erotica is seen in many other cultures.

The term ryona almost exclusively refers to the action of a distressed woman being abused by a man. In a case where the target is male, it is more commonly called gyaku-ryona (逆リョナ, gyaku-ryona, "reverse ryona"), and generally implies content with a female assailant and a male victim. The genre focuses exclusively on fictional characters in these situations. In some cases, the perpetrator could be a monster or other non-human being.

Because the fetish is very broad in scope, it often contrasted with or incorporates other, more common, fetishes such as humiliation, sexual sadism and rape pornography, in that ryona is a complex and nuanced voyeuristic fantasy fetish, a romanticized subgenre aimed at a female target demographic and are almost always of non-explicit sexual nature. Unlike guro (グロ) genre, ryona never progresses to the point of lasting physical harm or death.

Description[edit]

• Literal torture for extortion, confession, or simply for sexual gratification of the torturer.
• Murder and necrophilia for sexual pleasure.
