When it comes to romantic animes in the RomCom genre, Horimiya and My Dress-Up Darling stand out as two must-watch series. These animes depict the love lives of high school teenagers with interesting hobbies. Hori, the main character of Horimiya, is a beautiful and popular high school girl who enjoys watching horror movies. On the other hand, Marin, one of the main characters of My Dress-Up Darling, is also a beautiful and popular high school girl who loves cosplaying.
Both Hori and Marin’s love lives are somewhat affected by their hobbies. Hori, who loves horror movies, falls in love with Miyamura, her classmate who is considered to have a dull and gloomy life. However, when Hori accidentally bumps into Miyamura and sees him outside of school as a completely different person, they become closer and start dating. Miyamura often visits Hori’s house and watches horror movies with her, fulfilling her love for the genre.
One day, while walking with Miyamura, his middle school friend came along and Miyamura acted aggressively towards him. Surprisingly, instead of being scared, Hori enjoyed and realized she had a fetish for men who show a little bit of aggression. From then on, Hori asks Miyamura to act slightly aggressive towards her, which she finds very attractive.
In contrast, Marin in My Dress-Up Darling reveals a different fetish. She enjoys cosplaying anime characters and one of her favorite characters is a girl who likes to be seen as a servant. In other words, a character who is interested in men who dominate them. In one scene, Wakana Gojo imagined Marin dressed in a cosplay costume and teasing him. Though it was only a figment of his imagination, it is possible that this could happen in reality.
Marin’s character in the series appears to be vulgar, taking off her clothes and wearing very revealing swimwear in front of Gojo. Meanwhile, she seems to enjoy having the upper hand, seen from her interactions with Gojo. It is possible that Marin has a fetish related to being dominated, whether being dominated herself or dominating others.
In summary, Horimiya and My Dress-Up Darling stand out as two RomCom anime series. These anime series explore unique fetishes related to the characters’ hobbies and interests. Whether you have a similar interest or not, these anime series will leave you wanting to watch more.
