"Ero-guro" (グロ) is a genre of Japanese pornography and hentai involving blood, gore, disfiguration, mutilation, urine, enemas, or feces. The term is gairaigo derived from the English phrase "erotic grotesque", and is frequently shortened to simply "guro".

Examples of well-known guro artists include Waita Uziga and Toshio Maeda.

The modern genre of tentacle hentai began within the category of ero-guro (although it has roots in older Japanese art), but was so successful that it is now usually considered separately.
