well you're wrong. it's the definition.I don't think it's necessary
Apart from the FACT that ntr involves / covers three distinct types of play / story / kinks - fetishesPersonally, I see it in this way
It doesn't have to be a bully, it just happens to be some other guy, I get why you think bully, the fetish is almost married to corruption, but you can create NTR where the woman picks a man over the protagonist who doesn't just mind control her with his dick, but is also kind and loving.no, in ntr the woman chooses the bully over you. if the bully rapes her there's no jealousy because it wasn't her choice. no jealousy no ntr.

Best description I've seen was a blog by some manga writer years ago that called it "destruction of something beautiful".It's not necessarily a bully, but NTR did not originally just mean cheating. It is specifically about someone who genuinely loves you being "broken" or "stolen" by pleasure you can't give.
Honestly, to be considered netorare there has to be destruction of something pure or good or corruption of something pure or good in regards to the protagonist. And if the rape/cheating is non-consensual from beginning to end, the only thing that can destroy or corrupt that something good is the protagonists insecurity. Thus, as I said, most normal people would see it as just a trauma dump and not netorare.Rape NTR is rape; consensual NTR is consensual. The two concepts are discrete.
I will disagree with tanstaafl here. The girl does not need to cave to the sexual pleasures of it. The only jealousy required is on behalf of the protagonist. A girl is inherently defiled when another guy has sex with her and it has nothing to do with her perceived pleasure.
The adult visual novel database handles this by calling it Netorare type C, which is a decent enough way to distinguish what you are getting into with the trope. Type A being when the girl was a willing participant from beginning to end and type B is the girl being raped/forced but growing to like it.If I uploaded a game where you play alongside your female best friend for 3 hours and she is suddenly brutally raped by your enemies, and did not tag it as NTR, the entire forum would shove pitchforks down my throat. Because it is NTR, regardless of whether the girl enjoyed it
Very informative, thanks! I was aware of the consent/non-consent distinction but always assumed types B and C were the same thing, good to see the three-part distinctionHonestly, to be considered netorare there has to be destruction of something pure or good or corruption of something pure or good in regards to the protagonist.
