Since quite a number of fans have PMed me about this issue, I figured it'd be helpful if I just post it here for others who might be curious about the depiction of Minako's rape in the anime. I've been asked if there's any difference in the anime and novels for that scene in episode 11, Naoe's behavior in particular.
The answer is yes. Anime!Naoe was looking all doom and gloom at Minako, and said (according to the fansub by LadyN), "I love him." Novels!Naoe was smiling at Minako, his eyes devoid of any strand of sanity, and said, "I love you." Again, I've no idea why they changed Naoe's manner in the anime, but nevermind.
( Personal Opinion )
