Previous studies have explored the representation of LGBTQ+ characters in media, highlighting the importance of diverse and inclusive portrayals. Futanari characters, in particular, have been examined for their role in challenging traditional notions of gender and sexuality.

Virtual reality (VR) technology has enabled the creation of immersive experiences, allowing users to interact with virtual characters and environments. The anime and manga genres have been adapted into VR experiences, including those featuring futanari characters. Futanari, a genre characterized by its depiction of characters with both feminine and masculine physical characteristics, often explores themes of identity, relationships, and romance.

In VR environments, characters like Momiji offer users the opportunity to engage with and explore complex relationships and romantic storylines. Research on VR experiences has shown that users can develop emotional connections with virtual characters, which can lead to increased empathy and understanding of diverse perspectives.
