Everyone knows that Pornography is Haram, there is no doubt about that. It is not prohibited in the Quran directly, yet it falls into the generalization stated in this Verse:

إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَأْمُرُ بِالْعَدْلِ وَالْإِحْسَانِ وَإِيتَاءِ ذِي الْقُرْبَىٰ وَيَنْهَىٰ عَنِ الْفَحْشَاءِ وَالْمُنكَرِ وَالْبَغْيِ ۚ يَعِظُكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ - 16:90

According to the Al-Mawrid Arabic-English dictionary of Munir Baalbaki, Fuhash is obscenity, vulgarity, indecency, shamelessness and something that is dirty, filthy and foul. (♥♥♥♥ falls into all of these categories)

And there is also a hadith that won't leave a single atom of doubt in your mind about the prohibition of ♥♥♥♥ (since it involves the awrah of women):

Abu Dawood (3140) and Ibn Maajah (1460) narrated that ‘Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Do not show your thigh, and do not look at the thigh of anyone, living or dead.”

These two evidences in the Islamic Sharia clearly show us that not only is ♥♥♥♥ haram, but it is so forbidden that it falls into not one, but two haram categories (being shameless and showing awrah of women)

♥♥♥♥ is haram, there is not doubt about that, yet the thing that confuses me is Hentai (Anime ♥♥♥♥), or any type of cartoon/animated ♥♥♥♥, and it's permissibility in Islam. Animated ♥♥♥♥ is no different from imagining women (Which is not haram). The reasons why I personally think it is virtually impossible for animated ♥♥♥♥ to be Haram are as follows:

-It does not apply to the Quranic Verse stated above, because it is not vulgar, shameless or filthy since it is all a work of fiction, the women in these cartoons never existed, and these things aren't actually happening. It is no different from imagining ♥♥♥ because they are simply animated drawings (which are nothing but lines and colors), it is not shameless, filthy or vulgar at all.

-It does not apply to the Hadith stated above, because it does not involve real awrah. When one watches animated ♥♥♥♥ they are only seeing drawn awrah, and Islam is silent on this issue. There is no evidence in the Quran or the Hadith that looking at drawn awrah is haram. And according to the basic rules and principles of Islam that Allah gave us out of his Mercy, anything is permissible until there is solid evidence to prove that it is not.

Animated ♥♥♥♥ is like turkey bacon, which is permissible in Islam because it doesn't contain pork like normal bacon. Animated ♥♥♥♥ is different from normal ♥♥♥♥ because just like turkey bacon, everything that would make it haram is removed, it just shares the name of ♥♥♥♥. Similarly, everything that is haram in ♥♥♥♥ is removed in animated ♥♥♥♥ (No vulgarity or shamelessness, and no real awrah)

So my question is: Is Hentai (cartoon ♥♥♥♥) Haram even after everything I mentioned? And if it is, please give me evidence that clearly prohibits looking at drawn awrah to justify it's inadmissibility.
