A fun fact of the universe was that both Redo and Dress up Darling were getting big around the same time. One was a girly girl show written by a femcel about her self-insert getting a cosplay BF martysue, yet it was primarily consumed by men.
While the "incel revenge fantasy" Redo ended up as the opposite and was everything women wanted.
Dress Up Darling, Horimiya, Angle Next Door, Pseudo Harem, Alya Hides Her Feelings, Makeine
I feel personally attacked that I've seen all of these, sans Angel Next Door.
Though I have extreme opinions that most of these start great and then fall into the classic trap of "we need conflict! quick make up some bullshit misunderstanding!!!!"
Which, if we use the "masturbation for the heart" example, is like putting an entire sad drama storyline in the middle of a porn shoot.
