I'm mad af....my first rant forgive me ya'll but..

Agreed.

lol you're a breath of fresh air this morning..i was ready to go to war w/ some people haha

Eh it's stupid to go to war or flame things as annoying just because they have a different opinion on a manga - And I'm directly talking to the child who's marking every comment of people displeased with this manga as 'Annoying' :p it's just childish and it's a matter of taste.

Anyway, I felt the same. Shou is new to it all and making mistakes left and right, but he seems to have been pushed by everyone to make those mistakes. Not excusing him, but justifying. The way I see it, there is the nephew of Katou who has it all and is accepted and Shou, who has to hide his parentage and is now being slut shamed by two guys who were porn stars. It sounds unfair. As for Iwaki and Katou, it is really annoying to read a story about two lovers so absorbed in their little world that they can't functionally interact w other people as individuals or without projecting or personalizing everything. I get the story is about them, but why must every plot be about their romance? It's boring when the problem moving the plot forward is already old for being used so many times: Iwaki and Katou jealous of each other or concerned about career.

I like Shou way better than anyone. And if the author wanted to make him a bad guy, she is not being successful in conveying that.

true i hate it too, sometimes i can't help but get annoyed when some people try to argue w/ nonsense..but i totally agree w/ you, I thought this was going to focus more on Shou and the nephew actually, but it's gone back to the Iwaki and Katou drama special. I also don't like that Iwaki has these half-assed feelings about being a "father" to Shou. It's not hard he either wants to be or he doesn't..no one's expecting him to just accept the role and everything be peachy but don't make him feel even more disgusted w/ himself than he already does. And to let Katou and the manager slide for their role in it is maddening. their concern over their career more than the guidance and feelings of a child who has no idea what he's doing is amazing to me smh I hope things get better for Shou i like him too

You said everything I think. But, again, as I said before, I'm not quite sure I understand this story, so I might be talking about things I don't understand haha.

I guess it's matter of personal preferences and values, I am really annoyed at Iwaki and Katou. And to an extent, at the author. Stories that focus solely on the internal issues of the couple are kinda annoying when they reach over 100 chapters (counting the prequel). It looks self absorbed and repetitive. Iwaki bruh, not everything in this world is about you.

And honestly, he's never shown fatherly feelings for Shou, why the hell is he annoyed that Shou doesn't see him as dad, and what kind of adult father is he to say such shit to Shou? Shou was even the bigger person and called to apologize and Iwaki was such an ass bc of Jealousy.

Still, I want to see the end of this story, so I won't give up. There are good points, and I love the manager haha. But there are better stories around.

No doubt I mean the prequel was cool and I think we had enough of them and their issues then that's why I was really hoping they wouldn't be basically the main characters after all this time. lol yeah Iwaki wants it all but doesn't want to sacrifice anything -__-.

I didn't understand that either!!! While reading I was thinking, what reason did you ever give Shou to think that you were anything like a father or wanted to become like a father to him. Even before this chapter (once again) everyone was concerned about how Shou being found out would ruin everyone's career, not about a guy hoping to establish a connection w/ his real father. I think for what he's been given and treated he's hanging on pretty well, I wish he would go off honestly and tell'em all to stuff it.

Right I'm hoping things will turn around for the better and I did like the manager before the Chiba incident too. I think that''s what made me even madder lol

Yesssssss.... exactly what I thought.. Iwaki and Katou's actions are getting disgusting. I kinda lose respect for them. I don't care for this manga anymore so I'm going to drop this. Anyway, I hope the way they handle Shou is intentionally made by the author for those characters though, not what the authors believe what's right.
