What's the difference? Don't they both mean perverted? Or is like more like softcore and hardcore?

Yup. Ecchi is about humour with lots of nosebleeds, pantsu shots and shaking boobies, hentai about (hardcore) sex.

LOL! Guess I really am an expert...but I'm not really in to hentai, I like ecchi more.
Additional info: anime or manga is only considered hentai when you see the actual penetration. (So Futari Ecchi is not a hentai, neither is the 13th episode of Onegai Sensei ("Please Me Teacher")) Most hentai are really sick, or do you get off after seeing shemales, tentacle monsters and rapes. A typical hentai phrase is "No, please not in the ass!"
Does anyone else find it wierd that they play some of these ecchi shows on kid networks in Japan. I agree with non-censorship. I just can't understand how kids can handle watching porn everyday after school.
Don't get me wrong, I like ecchi shows. I just don't understand how those kids like 'em as much as they do.
kids now are really perverted.
In my childhood years the most perverted thing I ever saw on cartoons was probably April O'Neal in ninja turtles. Nowadays there is so much perversion in cartoons, that's why I love them
only in america...
the diff. between Ecchi and hentai would seem to me like the diff. between watchin playboy or some other porn channel in america, and watching a perverted tv show....also, about the majority of anime being ecchi, i disagree, i think to be considered an ecchi anime it has to be a repeated thing, i mean a lot, like Ikkitousen or Green Green TV, whereas something like Full metal panic fumoffu, naruto, ufo princess valkyrie, kiddy grade, happy lesson tv, happy lesson adv., kimi ga nozomu eien, maburaho, onegai teacher, onegai twins and even konjiki no gash bell (the kid gash shoves his tiny cock-n-ballz in the main characters face lol) are just series that have some rare perverse elements, even tho they might happen repeatedly thru the series they're not over the top or TOO often, whereas something like green green or ikkitousen would be considered fully ecchi, and anything where a girl is being raped by an alien with dick tentacles would be considered hentai
lets post some examples, shall we?
Hmmm... on aniplex it labels onegai teacher and twins both ecchi. So do all the other anime review sites. I don't think ecchi and hentai are like playboy or any other porn channel. I think there's a bigger difference than that.
Hentai is absolute hardcore sex as Elite Hentai was kind enough to point out.
However Echii is NOT just random panty shoots thats just fan service.
Ecchi is when they show people naked but not in a explicitly sexual nature. For intance Onegai Twins the girls sit around in the bath all the time naked lots of random shoots of them nude. Ranma 1/2 also a lot or random shoots of nudity. These are both Ecchi because while there is nudity its basically softcore you just see some boobs here or there.
A lot of anime has sexual situations heck most of them at the very least have some panty shoots but unless they show the people naked its not Ecchi and unless they show them having sex and as stated earlier penitration its not Hentai. Of course most shows have a perverted episode a random episode doesn't make a whole series a ecchi its when its in nearly every episode.
Thanks for clearing that up for me.
so... would a child in japan watching these grow into a perveted male? :X
possibly......it explains y the japanese culture is so easy going with this stuff. they've grown up seeing it, and have been decensitized (sp) to it. just like kids with video games.
Many of the Echii are rated 13+ years or something. And most of the shows are on the Night, like 10 o'clock
Would Dragonball series be classified as Hentai...or Echi?
Cuz I thought Dragonball(Not sure about Z) had some "scenes" to it.

if you consider DB as hentai or echi then you can consider Naruto as echi, but we know Naruto is aired at 7:30... so it's not echi or anything...
Echi more applieas to stuff like Love Hina and co. where you see boobies bounce and hundreds of onsen (hot water spring) scenes...
I doubt Ranma 1\2 was rated as Echi.. and it had alot of scenes which out-hentaied DB in a seconed...
sig made by Itachi-y2k5, thanks, dude!
Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.
You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.
You can find a lot of DB hentai, but it aint done by the same person.
Ah thanks, for some reason I thought Dragonball had hentai in it.
