What's the draw of this anime? I've not seen an episode, but I was curious. It sounds a lot like a rape fetish anime

I wouldn't say that's exactly it, but it is a very bland wish fulfillment type of thing. I'll make the main character the strongest guy ever, who never loses, and who gets all the girls, and nobody can outsmart him, and he's got a robot arm...

I read the web novel ages ago, and I think its second part was more city/empire building? A bit like slime but more serious with a psychopath as the main character.

There's no rape here but it definitely looks like a wish fulfilment op mc harem as of now.

There's no rape

Again, I'm only reading comments and forums, but when I read 'sex slaves' or 'drugging to have sex with someone' or 'kidnapping for procreation' or 'stockholm syndrome', I can't imagine that there's no rape involved.

I had classic Goblin Slayer like rape in mind, but yes you're right, that's 100% Stockholm syndrome which is still rape.

The "kidnapped for procreation" part happened, but it was stopped by the MC.

It also happened before the MC was born (MC was born from rape).
