It has happened. They have made a moe manga where the main character is a cockroach. It's a comedy slice of life 4koma, so it's not incredibly deep or complex, but the premise and character design are cute and not something you see everyday.
All I have to say is that if cockroaches were actually that cute, they would already rule the world.
To me, this series is interesting for two reasons.
1: It has cute cockroaches doing cute things.
2: It's interesting from a more "academic" point of view as well. Reading this is sort of like exploring the frontiers of moe. I mean, I never thought I would see a scene where the main character is getting sprayed with insecticide and go "Awww, that's cute."
