people talking about NTR when they don't even know what NTR is: the literal translation is "to steal under one's nose" (netorare), but it refers to when you "steal" a person in an already established relationship. The girl didn't even know who this "hero" was until now, so where the hell are you guys seeing NTR???
There is a subgenre of NTR that involves the concept of "But I loved her first" where the "stolen" girl is not in a relationship with the "protagonist" but the protagonist knows who she is and "loves" her only to discover that she got a lover or into a relationship before they acted on their "love." This is the type of NTR the "Heroes" in this story are experiencing. The "Heroes" know all the heroines from the game and "romanced" them in the game, but because they assumed that the girls were already theirs they will have them stolen under their noses by the MC unintentionally romancing them.
This form of NTR is heavily linked to the reason Japanese idols can get in serious trouble if they are discovered to have a boyfriend or had sexual relationships with someone. Idol fanatics can be dangerous especially if they believe an idol is theirs and they feel that someone has stolen her from them.
