Like I said, I don't think it's NTR - and trust that you will find no greater NTR expert than I. However, we have to understand that NTR has grown to be a boogeyman for those who are emotionally fragile and intently possessive. A girl smiling at another guy is NTR; a girl ever having a boyfriend at any time in their life is NTR; a girl having sex before meeting the protagonist is NTR; and, indeed, a girl getting raped is NTR. A popular recent genre of NTR is "BSS" -> Boku ga saki ni suki datta no ni -> "but I liked her first", wherein the NTR is a girl who has never had a relationship with the MC is "stolen" by virtue of falling for another guy. Any world in which a girl does not remain untouched by anyone but the protagonist from birth to death is NTR. Any world in which a girl has any positive or sexual feelings for anyone but the protagonist from birth to death is NTR. Their dream of romance is a nubile virgin saving themselves for the ideal man then giving themselves to him (the purityfriend) as an eternal gift.
This psychology, really, comes from a blend of idealism and a gluttonous streak abetted by a glut of choices. First in the abstract world of fiction we can pursue our ideals unbound by earthly considerations, and for many - dating back to of course the Neolithic era - their "ideal" woman is one completely untouched and wholly devoted. In a sense this I do not decry; I cannot criticize fundamentally one who may yearn for a Maya who has never been fucked senseless by Ami (putting aside the conception that at times these events define us and "a Maya who has never been fucked senseless by Ami is no Maya at all"). The problem is more the gluttony, the gourmand's tongue that develops; a large amount of media caters to this unblemished virgin fetish rather intently, and so while under normal circumstances we may be forced to abandon our idealistic wishes to face the reality that the Virgin Mary of our dreams in fact fucked some random farmer in the back of a sheep pen when Joseph wasn't watching, in the modern world it is fully reasonable for one to absorb themselves completely in harem fantasies where much like in Lessons in Love there exist no men in the world except the protagonist and all girls love him unilaterally. This lack of opposition weakens the mind and spirit until anything outside of that is no longer acceptable - where the mere sight of a rival in love sends one frothing with rage, and THIS is precisely where NTR becomes the eternal boogeyman. Someone leaving their walled garden of gigavirgins will see something like the recent scenes in LiL and start raving about NTR because in their world girls are so pure and devoted that they would rush to immolate themselves in a roaring suicidal fire before there was even a chance of someone other than their beloved touching their skin. Being raped is betrayal; cumming to it is heresy. In their minds Maya and Tsuneyo and so on may now be burning in the ninth circle of hell alongside Judas. Even when faced with the divine fruit of knowledge that is LiL they can turn their back because the harem fantasies of their dreams grow from neighboring trees with abundance. Their walled garden is massive. And so their intolerance for suffering grows. It is a sad state of affairs. Thankfully there is still time for Selebus to delete all these recent scenes and ensure each heroine is wholly devoted/loyal to Sensei and also that every surviving man dies in space. Also it just occurs to me it's ironic that the anti-NTR guy didn't express equal rage at the LITERAL NTR of Haruka - this reflects how it's less the general act NTR itself they dislike and more the personal discomfort they feel at their potential pure waifus being despoiled.
Act 4 - Maya - Adulterer.
