Recently, a Facebook group calling itself “Waifu Rental or Bride Rental Peru” has burst onto social media and has become a hot topic. Although the group has changed its name, possibly due to its growing popularity, it has more than 5 thousand registered members and has caught the attention of the otaku community in Latin America.
The group promotes itself as a girlfriend rental service, whether real or virtual, aimed at lonely and stressed men looking for a temporary solution to various situations. Among the reasons that drive members to join this community are the possibility of making their ex-partners think that they have started a new relationship or simply the desire to pretend to have a partner for a day to impress family and friends.
The description of the group makes it clear that their idea is directly inspired by the franchise “Kanojo, Okarishimasu (Rent A Girlfriend)”, a series that presents the premise of renting girlfriends for a short period of time. This has not gone unnoticed by the otaku community, which has reacted with a mix of amazement and humor to this curious trend.
The comments and reactions have not been long in coming, with ridicule and sarcastic comments flooding social networks. The novelty of the idea and its relationship with the popular anime and manga series have attracted the attention of both “Kanojo, Okarishimasu” fans and anime fans in general.
