    I am not sure if it was already mentioned but there was an MC who got raped after being reborn as a girl. Mostly because of the cur.....I mean blessings given. I wish I could remember the name but that means I have to go through the list of million of light novel I bookmarked.......I hope somebody knows what I am referring to and reply to this comment.

    Not surprising considered that most japanese Mc's are usually virgins, NEET, and etc....

    At times it makes a great plot. Not all the time obviously, but having tender peaceful love all the time can be boring. It be nice to have some dark actions from time to time.

    Look at my later reply. The mechanic itself isn't bad, but is very poorly executed by CN/JP authors.

    In one of the Young Ancient books by P S Power the MC gets raped\tortured by an insane attractive older woman.

    Ah, probably true. Didnt see your later reply x). Would be nice to read a vague rape scene against a protagonist. The protagonist always get saved at last second.

    Not even "almost" guy was drugged and everything.
    Though at least he lost his virginity and got two wives out of it.

    Should probably say that the first time then. Anyway, I think rape is a useful mechanic. You don't have to agree with rape or think that rape is good or anything, but it's a very effective way to play with reader emotions.

    >_< I was bewildered by the question. For a second, I thought the op wanted MC's to be raped.

    Its because whenever there is a rape, its either to pleasure the mc, so he does the raping, or mc getting raped which is for shock valie. The problem is male mc getting raped isnt as impactful as a female lead getting raped. Also power trip. Soooo yeah.
