And it's done explicitly and deliberately, not just implied or portrayed-as-another-thing-but-can-be-interpreted-as-such. For example Kenja no Ai, where the female lead 'groom' the male lead since he was born so that he would grow up being deeply in love with her. I'm looking for something that explores the psychological and emotional state of those involved in this kind of situation. Can be a form of stockholm syndrome too, only when the perpetrator used it deliberately and specifically as a mean to make the victim falls in love / be dependant on the them. It can be a drama or movie, or even a non-Asian cinema if you know any. Can be from the 'groomer' or the 'groomed' POV. Thanks in advance.
I think Watashi no Otoko fits perfectly with what you're looking for
