Personal experience?
I'm somewhat of a nekomimi fan myself.

I admit, the Japanese are a total mystery to me. Tentacle rape porn? Used panty vending machines? Fish egg ice cream? Seriously, WTF?

yes, the word was born in the book. There is no arguing that fact.

I really would be interested in reading your findings, although I can't fathom how the exact same word with such a similiar meaning could arise in two such diverse cultures over such a short period of time. Keep in mind the novel was written in the mid-50s, and at the time caused quite a bit of a stir. It wasn't obscure by any means.
