Mai-Chan's Daily Life

Mai-Chan's Daily Life (Mai-chan no Nichijo) is one of the most widely-known (and infamous) works in the "guro" Hentai genre. Written by Waita Uziga in 2004, it became a subject of Memetic Mutation through 4chan and Encyclopedia Dramatica because of two scenes near the end which take High Octane Nightmare Fuel to unbelievable levels.

Mai is a sweet, attractive girl whose life is a living hell. Working as a slave for a cruel mistress, she spends her days toiling as a maid and her nights being raped and tortured by her mistress' wealthy clients. What makes this even worse is that Mai can regenerate any physical damage her body receives, even fatal injuries. Thus, she is routinely burned, bludgeoned, cut up, and otherwise ripped apart purely for the entertainment of various sadistic loons, in addition to the sexual tortures they put her through.

Needless to say, this is extremely NSFW. Additionally, if you have not and don't intend to read this series, and want to not cringe at the thought of sex, childbirth, and eating things out of blenders, DO NOT read behind the spoiler tags.

And remember: what has been watched cannot be unwatched.
