According to a 2023 Japanese Ministry of Health survey, over 40% of full-time workers report feeling their personal time is “regularly invaded” by work obligations.

Entertainment like Boku no Teisou ga Nerawareteiru offers a cathartic, exaggerated version of this invasion. The player can either fight back (con fight) or succumb—the same choice workers face daily. Adult visual novels are often dismissed as pure fantasy, but they serve deeper psychological roles:

In the visual novel, the protagonist’s chastity is attacked under mundane circumstances: after a part-time job, during a study session, at a convenience store. Similarly, work encroaches into life during dinner, late-night emails, or weekend Slack messages.
