And to these writers, who may be quite introverted or socially awkward, that may mean a lot.
Yeah. Kind of figures it'd be a fairly-known setup considering how there's no surprise in Eromanga Sensei to first seeing the artist and "he" has a mask on online. If that series had been written in America I imagine that spot where the hero pulls up the livestream and sees the hoodie and mask would've been followed by a fair degree of surprise and confusion at the oddity, not a simple "oh so this's Eromanga-sensei is it".
