I'm looking for VNs where the protagonist and heroine take care of a cute kid together! It doesn't have to be their own biological child necessarily but bonus points if you get to see the heroine being all maternal and feminine

If the kid is a girl it would be extra cute if she wears matching outfits with the heroine!

I'm already familiar with the KEY games where this is an element. Also I can read Japanese so feel free to recommend stuff that isn't in english

I'm looking for friends who are into otaku culture, particularly into moe and kawaii cultures. I like visual novels, jiraikei, visual kei, lolita fashion, BL, dark content (guro) and cute characters (mascots like Chiikawa and My Melody). I also like classical literature (mostly French writers like Bataille, Baudelaire, Flaubert and Proust), collecting dolls and Disney Princess

I've been a fan of this series since the anime first aired in 2022 but haven't interacted with the fandom much until I started using Reddit again recently. I've been seeing a lot of edits of Bocchi with green hair, initially I assumed it was someone's OC or something like that, but it has been posted so much I think it's probably a long-running meme? What's the story here?

When I was a little girl, one of the main things orientated towards girls was princesses: the whole vibe of dressing up with sparkly dresses, tiaras, makeup etc so you're super cute when the brave prince comes to rescue you from the ugly witch or wizard and all their monsters

Yet being the "prince" was never a role heavily orientated or encouraged in boys.

It seems weird to me because a prince seems to pair perfectly with the "princess" role for girls, and is also very typically boyish and action orientated: defeating the villains, rescuing the beautiful princess. Instead boys were moreso pushed towards ninjas and pirates and knights.

Do little boys just in general not like the idea of being princes?

As a kid I loved to imagine being a princess and getting rescued by a prince!
