Sounds like it's pretty specific to the anime world. I've certainly never heard it used by anyone in any of the fandoms I've been involved in or by friends involved in other non-anime fandoms over the years.
However, it seems to me if you can read about sex why not just type/say the word without requiring such a euphemism? It's not like the word is shorter and easier to type or anything.
