hey guys, i just wanted to get this off my chest and maybe hear what y'all think. is it weird/wrong to feel really down when something you like (like a show/anime or any kind of media) ends up having some kind of ntr content (like in a h game/novel or any kind of format)? have you ever felt that sort of sadness just because something you care about ends up having an ntr version of it?
No but then again if I read ntr fan content from a story that I love and the characters start to cheat, usually they depart so much from their actual personalities I kind of see it as just an oc story without link to the original work. A "what if" of a story that is already fictional in a way, giving me even more distance to their action, and letting me enjoy the corruption/ntr.
But maybe this explains why people rage so much against ntr
Dark Hero Party was probably one of the most disappointing NTR games I've played - at the very least it's way over hyped. It's still a fine game but it just doesn't really do anything for me. It was probably a good game for its time, I suppose? It was translated early on (iirc) by Kagura Games which helped it be a more 'mainstream' H-game by NTR standards, but it doesn't have anything that blows me away in particular.
Funnily enough, Dark Hero Party is almost more known with people hating ntr as the ultimate example of what ntr is (which is false), than in places containing ntr fans like here (search and you won't find much fanfare here around that game, at least it's not usually cited over and over like other classic ntr games).
Personally I don't like it because it's not mystery and it's just sad for the sake of it, but the character design was pretty.
I dislike BSS as a term. It’s not used anywhere—not on DLsite, not on FANZA. They just use cuckoldry (NTR).
I agree with the rest of your post but this part not really, it's an accepted and useful term in Japanese circles, along with ntr, used in stories and bbs. Just like netorase is its own thing, or mother netorare (mtr as koreans call it), and so on.
Dlsite isn't the the ultimate judge of Japanese tags, and DMM/FANZA even less (they don't even separate netori and netorare there, which is such a pain in the ass).
Don't get me wrong, it's part of netorare for me, not separate, it's just a specific version of it, so labelling something as BSS, for people into it, they will find it easily, and for people into netorare, they know they'll like it (or not), based on their preferences around established couples as a setting.
In a lot of BSS works, the FL and the MC has mutual feelings towards each other. I would still count that as NTR.
Yeah it's basically a subversion of a typical romcom setting, where the ending is them getting together, except this is netorare so she's stolen by someone else.
