Nagayama Kaoru discusses loli in "Erotic Comics in Japan: An Introduction to Eromanga", but not really gore. Hiroki Azuma in "Otaku: Japan's Database Animals" doesn't directly touch on the subject.
Saito Tamaki would probably see loli necrophilia as an instance of his phallic girl impossible hyperreal archetype which he sees as distinct from the Amazonian phallic mother.

We can also see loli necrophilia in terms of Simone de Beauvoir's "The Second Sex". Loli necrophilia is a fantasy of a subject without subjectivity. Alternatively, loli necro is a masochist fantasy, a desire to conquer othering.
Putting these viewpoints together, loli necrophilia depicts the goddess Psyche travelling to the underworld, Psyche being an instance of the hyperreal phallic girl archetype depicting young love. The imagery of gore and death being a way of making visible in an image concepts we would usually feel directly. But loli necrophilia also reflects the non-narrative nature of post-modernity. And loli necrophilia is an appealing fantasy to both youn
