Welcome

Come, have a seat*. Pour yourself some tea and relax. If you have reached this webpage, then it's likely you are an enjoyer of loli and/or shota artwork and pornography. If you're not, or don't know what these are, you may want to quietly see yourself out. My role here isn't to convert people, only to help those who have already entered the rabbit hole find their community.
If today was the first time you rubbed one out to a cute loli or shota, you'll probably have a lot of questions. "Am I a pedophile now? Am I a bad person? Am I mentally ill?" The first question is a semantic one that I leave you to answer for yourself, but the latter two are more important. No, you are not a bad person, and you are not mentally ill. Evil comes from evil actions, and not evil thoughts. A drawing or animation of a fictional character, no matter what age they appear to be or are written as in canon, is still just a fictional character. And so long as our fantasies stay within the realm of fiction, we harm no one, and are thus still decent people (though others may not share this sentiment, so don't go shouting from the rooftops that you're a lolicon). As for whether it's a mental illness, the key elements of a mental illness require that it either causes you distress, or negatively impacts your ability to interact with society. So just don't let it leave your bedroom and don't stress about it. Everyone's got their secrets, right?
For many of you, however, this is not your first rodeo. Perhaps you've been fapping to lolis or shotas for months or even years, but you may be running out of good material. Maybe you don't know the right sites to visit to find more, or maybe the site you've been using started bringing down the banhammer on loli or shota artwork, and you need to find a new community. Or maybe you know where to find material, but you're lonely, and you need to find some like-minded people. You may have noticed that defending your interests on traditional social media is a very quick way to get yourself cancelled.
I don't think my lolicon and shotacon brothers and sisters should be deprived of the community they need to enjoy their interest in peace. As such, I have created this guide to provide resources on where to find and share loli and shota imagery, and where you can find like-minded individuals to share your passion with. In exchange, I ask only that you stay the path of fiction and never seek to corrupt an actual minor. For most of you, this should be common sense, but there are occasionally people who develop other opinions. I know you're not a bad person. I just ask that you stay like that.
But First, You May Want to Hide Your Shit
Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer. None of this is legal advice.
If you live in Japan, where a great deal of loli and shota artwork is created, consider yourself lucky, as your legislature is quite resistant to the idea of banning loli and shota any time soon.
If you live in the US, I have good news and bad news for you. The good news is that thanks to a supreme court decision in 2002, lolicon and shotacon are considered protected speech... provided that they're not considered obscene. What's the bad news? Obscenity is pretty vague. More or less, something is obscene if an average person would consider it (a) pornographic and (b) lacking any serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value. Now, personally I would consider any work that is drawn or animated to have artistic value innately, as they necessarily require artistic expression to create. And perhaps, if you have a good lawyer, you can convince a jury of this as well. But lawyers are expensive, and if you dig deep enough, you'll find instances of people giving guilty pleas to these obscenity laws. To save yourself the hassle, you may want to consider reading the rest of this section.
Outside of the US and Japan, your situation may be worse. Some governments -- Canada being a notorious example -- consider lolicon and shotacon to be equivalent to real child pornography, and the law will punish you just the same. Additionally, even if it's not against the law for you to consume this content, you may still want to hide it from friends and family who you would prefer to stay on good terms with.
This will mean, first and foremost, hiding your web traffic. A VPN will help encrypt that traffic, and even get around any website blocks that may be imposed by your government or ISP. I'm not paid to shill any particular VPN, so I'll let you do your own research here and stress only that you should choose one that does not keep logs. On top of using a VPN, you may also want to use whatever your browser's equivalent of private mode is. Basically, don't store where you're going in your browser history, lest autocompete let a guest on your computer know what you've been up to.
Secondly, if you are saving anything to any of your devices, you should ideally do so to an encrypted drive. For this task, I recommend Veracrypt and nothing else. Use a strong password that is not used anywhere else, and do not let anyone know it for any reason. If you are pressed on why you have an encrypted drive, make up a reason. Say you have tax forms or something on there. Doesn't matter. You must never crack on this, because as long as that password is safe, your data can never be accessed. And if you want to be extra paranoid about it, you can create a hidden volume using Veracrypt. This means your one encrypted volume is actually two. If you are forced to give up a password, your attacker will have access to some other volume that does not contain your cute and funny images and videos. Perhaps you might actually put your tax forms there.
Finally, use some basic common sense about the devices you're storing your loli/shota on. I'd advise against keeping anything sketchy on your phone, since it's the most likely device that a stranger may ask to use. Furthermore, it's likely to travel with you everywhere you go, and if you travel abroad, you should absolutely not have loli or shota on any of your devices. Customs are a bitch, and they can search your devices. And since I know at least one idiot is going to make this mistake, don't keep it on your work computer either.
An Awesome List
Enough of the introductions, this is what you came for, right?
Boorus
A booru is a website for hosting images (and sometimes videos) that are categorized by tags. You can search with multiple tags, and get only the images that match all of the listed tags. Depending on the site, you may also be able to search with negative tags for further enhancementing. An example of such a search might be siblings incest -yaoi, which would allow you to search for two a brother and sister going at it, but not two brothers. The following are some useful boorus that are loli/shota friendly:
ATF Booru: All the Fallen (ATF) is a website dedicated to sharing loli and shota related content. In addition to a booru, ATF also maintains a number of other services including a forum, a site for sharing stories, and a site for sharing game mods.
Gelbooru: A more general purpose booru for anime (and hentai) content. Defaults to not showing loli and shota (if you search, you'll get a message like "nobody here but us chickens"), but you can enable seeing them without an account. Go to settings, then options, then find the box labeled "display all site content". Then scroll down and click save. You'll be able to view all of the lolis on the site now.
Yande.re: Another general purpose booru for anime-styled content, which supports loli and shota. Similar to lolibooru in defaulting to not showing explicit content. The manner of revealing it is the same.
Lolibooru: NOTE: lolibooru has been down for several months now. The domain has not been lost, so it may be accessible in the future, but the website cannot currently be accessed. Another decent sized booru for loli/shota conttent. Defaults to hiding nsfw content, so you may consider creating an account. If you don't want to do that, find the sidebar on the left side of the screen, click on "hidden posts", and make sure to click rating:e (the e is for explicit).
Content that is shared on one booru site will often be shared onto others. It is nevertheless worth knowing a few, just in case one site gets knocked down for some reason.
Doujin Sites
Do you prefer enjoying your hentai in comic form? Here's a few sites you can go to for your kicks.
Exhentai: This site is also known as "Sad Panda", because in the past, instead of seeing a blank page when you access the site normally, you would instead see a picture of a crying panda. To access the content of the site, you need to be logged in through the forums. Here is a simple guide from several years ago that should still work. Yes, you will have to wait a week before you can access content here, but Exhentai has been described as "The Library of Alexandria of Hentai" in the past, and it's better that you gain access to it now, rather than later, lest you have to wait a week when you want to see some hot cunny that just got linked to you. Note that this site has much, MUCH more than just loli and shota.
Nhentai: Have you ever been presented with a series of digits (typically 5 or 6) and told it's a link to something smutty? If so, you've probably been given an nhentai link. Here's an example: 85448. Take that, and put it after a link to nhentai in the following manner:
https://nhentai.net/g/85448. Or just go to nhentai.net and search the number. Either way, you'll get your doujin. Nhentai, like exhentai, has a lot more than just loli and shota, but is still a decent place to go for loli and shota. Note that nhentai is not the only porn site that uses short links. Motherless is another site with a similar tradition, but its links are 7 hexadecimal digits, and it's not the type of place to go for loli or shota.
Hitomi: No gimmicks, just a site with a decent number of doujins. Easy to search if you're looking for hentai of characters from a specific series.
DLSite: Want to support your favorite doujin authors by actually purchasing their works? Try DLSite. They have hundreds of thousands of works available for purchase, which includes not just doujins, but also some games and voice/ASMR works.
Video Sites
Hentai video streaming services. Like pornhub, but just for hentai.
Note: Use an adblocker
Some hentai streaming sites may be effectively unusable without a good ad blocker. I recommend uBlock Origin.
Hentai TV: Offers a decent selection of hentai videos, including loli and shota. The interface is very similar to Hanime, a website no longer listed here due to their removal of loli, shota, and other tags.
999 Hentai: Hentai website featuring both videos and doujins.
HentaiStream: Has hentai in 4k, and allows for searching with some blacklist enhancements (e.g. don't show me any NTR crap)
Gaming
Erotic games! This section is in need of expansion.
VNDB: A visual novel database. VNDB indexes thousands of visual novels, which can be searched with a large number of tags. Each entry lists the supported platforms the visual novel can be run on, the languages it has been translated into, and where it can be purchased/downloaded. Visual novels with lolicon and shotacon themes can be found here, among many others.
/hgg2d/ Translated Game Archive: An index of 2d hentai games maintained by an ongoing thread on 4chan's /vg/ board. Searchable with a handful of tags, and with links to purchase the game from DLSite. I have asked users in the /hgg2d/ thread how they would feel about their archive's inclusion in this document, and they have indicated that they would prefer not to be flooded with tourists. So out of respect, maybe don't pay them any unnecessary visits. Additionally, becuase this archive is hosted on IPFS, if you find it useful, please seed it.
Mastodon Instances
Imagine Twitter (or X, as Musk wants to call it now), but instead of one site, it's many. And you can access the tweets of one site from another. And each of these different sites gets to have its own rules. Some of these sites are very friendly to fans of loli and shota and may be ideal if you need some sort of an outlet... or if you just want to reach out to your favorite loli artist. The following is a list of Mastodon instances that are friendly to loli and shota fans.
Caution
Be aware that the level of moderation on Mastodon can vary between instances. Basic Internet literacy rules apply. Watch out for scams and people trying to bait you into illegal activity over third party messaging apps. You should also read post descriptions before clicking on spoilered images, lest you see something you don't want to.
Baraag: A loli and shota friendly instance with a focus on artists. Does not tolerate certain realistic AI images, and requires all other AI images to be tagged as such.
Pawoo: A massive Mastodon instance based in Japan. Due to the size of its userbase, the above warning applies here especially. Note that if you are searching for loli images here, you'll want to use the ロリ tag instead of loli.
Mstdn.jp: Another massive Japanese Mastodon instance, but unlike Pawoo, doesn't block the English language loli tag.
Altchans
Did you find this guide on 4chan? You probably did, since I tend to post it in the /b/ loli threads for the most part. Did you know there are other image boards where you can post lolis and shotas anonymously without having to deal with as much spam or bored moderators deleting threads? The following are a few sites you may consider. This section is in further need of expansion.
Sturdy Chan: A relatively small imageboard that has a unique gimmick in that you can see posts from others being typed live. This site features two boards for pornography. /2d/ is for fictional content only, and allows for lolicon and shotacon. /3d/ allows for real pornography, but does not allow any references to minors, fictional or otherwise. So despite its name, you should not use it for your 3DCG lolicon. Both boards disallow sharing social media accounts, including instant messaging IDs. So while they are good for talking to other degenerates, they are not ideal places to meet others offsite. The /tech/ board is also worth investigating due to the /cumg/ (cooming utilities) general thread, which provides discussion on software to make being a coomer a little easier.
7chan: One of the older alt-chans, created in 2005 after a bunch of 4channers complained about the moderation policy. This site isn't as active as it used to be, though that doesn't necessarily mean users will approve of a buch of new posters acting like idiots and claiming to be from 4chan. Lurk before posting and you might have a good time. Notable boards are /cake/ for lolis, /sm/ for shotas, and /ss/ for straight shotacon.
8chan: An image board that allows users to create their own boards. Think if reddit and 4chan had an ugly lovechild. Very slow, but it has a fair number of boards for both lolicon and shotacon. There is /loli/ for regular lolis, /delicious/ for western-styled lolis, /tot/ for toddlercon, /sm/ for shotas, and /ss/ for straight shotacon.
Chat Applications
Many instant messaging and group chatting services, such as Discord, do not allow loli and shota content to be shared or "glorified" through discussion. Thankfully, several good alternatives exist which are more resistant to censorship. Two will be listed here.
Matrix/Element
Matrix is a decentralized chatting protocol that uses end-to-end encryption. Similar to Mastodon, creating an account on one homeserver/instance generally allows communication with accounts on other instances. Some servers, such as matrix.org perfom censorship by blocking communications with certain "undesirable" instances, and therefore are not recommended in this guide. You can login to your account on whichever homeserver you are signed up with, and chat with others using the Element application.
Cute Funny (art): A loli/shota friendly Matrix homeserver, which additionally offers a cloud storage service for loli artists. Cute Funny has a significant number of lolicon and shotacon users, and therefore is the most regularly blocked by servers that want nothing to do with them. This site has previously been available at the domain cutefunny.art, but appears to be in the process of moving.
W33b Cloud: Another loli/shota friendly homeserver. Currently has a user registration private, which means contacting the admin and filling out an application form. This server is based in Germany, and therefore subject to German law (which currently seems to be fine with loli images)
Session
An end-to-end encrypted chat application available here. Rather than using different homeservers, Session messages are transmitted through a blockchain network. In some aspects, this makes it more censorship resistant than Matrix. However, because of this, you should be more cautious when using the application. The earlier caution about Mastodon instances applies to Session as well.
Other Sites
For anything that doesn't fit in a category elsewhere.
Pomf: It's a loli/shota friendly livestreaming site! There aren't a ton of creators streaming at any given time, but if you ever wanted to watch someone draw lolis or play a game with lolis in it (perhaps with some nude loli mods), or even just watch hentai with other people, Pomf is good for that.
Little Angels Hentai: An old forum focused around sharing lolicon and hentai artwork. Be sure to read the rules before posting.
Saucenao: Saw a cute pic but need to know where it's from? Saucenao is a reverse image search site that indexes billions of images, including and especially anime and manga images. Most important about it is that it's not Google reverse image search. Because let's be real, you weren't seriously thinking about uploading cunny pics to Google, were you?
Pixiv: A massive art hosting website based in Japan. It is possible to find loli and shota artwork here, with a few caveats. Pornographic art typically requires an account to view. Secondly, some works are region-locked. To avoid most of these issues, set your account's region to Japan. Pixiv does support searching with multiple tags, but does not appear to support negative tags as a typical booru site might. As such, it is not included in the booru site list.
Bonus! Loli/Shota Sex Dolls
Getting tired of using your hand? Want something a little more intimate than your average onahole? Good news, you don't have to resort to fucking women. For every body type that you're into, there's a sex doll for that. Depending on brand, material, and height, they can cost you around the price of a new gaming PC more or less, but provided they are well maintained, they can last for years. And what's more, they allow you to have sex with someone that couldn't exist in real life... like an anime elf loli. The following are some vendors and manufacturers that are reputable and carry sex dolls in your preferred size.
