Read at your own peril, seriously. Major changes to Akihito/Sudoh scene below….I am sharing these because it raises huge points about the psychology of the characters at the time and future chapters. I'm kind of in shock -

I pointed this out on Tumblr too but please note that there is NO penetration. No rape, and I think personally it just shows how 'desperate and deranged' Sudoh had become…..

    Aha, I don't like Fei Long, mostly because his backstory bores me to death. He was pretty pathetic as well, getting Akihito into his mess, raping him and enjoying it way too much just before kidnapping him. The... Lightasus

    Right now Asami bores me to some extent. I want to see some other sides of him. And there are many yakuza seme just like him. I hope there's more to Asami than it's at the moment.
    Feilong's story is a bit mafia family cliché. I liked that light novel, but I first thought there is much more things about Fei. There hasn't been a spin-off either. Everything is hanging in the air.

    Who ever promised you there'd be a spinoff? He already had a whole volume all to himself and a separate novel. What more do you expect considering the fact that, I'm not sure you're aware of this or not, but newsflash: Fei isn't the main character. Give it up.

    I swear, sometimes I wish sensei would cut Fei's hair off. His fandom would drop by 3/4 and we wouldn't have to listen to them whining about why a minor character isn't getting star treatment.

    PS: Asami isn't yakuza.

    Nobody's forgetting anything. If fans are shocked, it's not because of the act itself but because it changes the character of Sudou and/or because this now looks a little too much like a rinse and repeat of the... @Anonymous

    I think there are some differences. Asami actually led Fei on (so there was a reason Fei had a thing for him) and Fei thought Asami killed his dad. That's much more reason than Sudouh ever had. Also, Fei always seemed more seductive with Aki. He made threats and did terrible things, but it was as if his bark was worse than his bite and he actually treated Aki much better than you would expect a crime boss to do.

    Fei is an important side character, and probably knowing more about him, we would know something more about Asami's past too. What did really happen at Hong Kong (in the past)? Can it be possible that Asami knows Kuroda from that point of the story? I had the impression that Asami knew Kuroda at that time, that could be the reason he asked him to clear the mess of the kidnapping of Akihito. These are only hypotheses, but knowing something more about Feilong, we can get a better idea of who Asami is, and Asami is a main character.

    Ps: I like Feilong's body more than his hair.

    Why so hateful? I just said I want to see more of Asami. Yes Asami is a businessman, but also a powerful figure in the underworld. I'm not s fan of any Viewfinder characters, I just like the story and like to talk about it. Give your hate to someone else, please.

    And 7 y ago Asami tried to take over Hong Kong mafia syndicate- that also pissed off Feilong.

    Fei's hair is gorgeous, but I'd love him even if it was short or he were ugly. And vice versa, I wouldn't like Sudou any more if he looked like Fei. Also, just saying - that argument works for Asami too. Would he still be as popular if he weren't so hot? I don't know. In the end, it's all about taste and opinion, and there's no need to try to make other people feel bad for having opinions different from your own.

    Asami didn't try to take over Baishe. He tried to secure the trade route from the continent to Japan via Hong Kong.

    Yes, it was so much better when Fei kidnapped Aki and held him captive and threatened to hook him on drugs and sell him off as a prostitute unless he blew him and then repeatedly raped him until he could barely walk. It was also sweetly seductive when he raped Aki until he bled, while threatening to crush his balls. You're right. That was much better. But Fei has reasons. That excuses everything.

    Lightasus May 14, 2016 9:21 pm

    Besides, are people forgetting that Fei Long intended to kill Akihito just after he raped him? It's just he's been interrupted by Asami.

    Of course in the end, Akihito is the protagonist aha.

    No, it doesn't excuse anything. But it explains. It doesn't make it okay, but it gives an interesting glimpse of a character's psyche. Who ever said it was sweet or nice? It was never supposed to be. And Asami also raped/druggeed/kidnapped Akihito repeatedly and he gets away with it. Sometimes it's about what's interesting rather than morally correct. (Also, Fei learned a lesson, which it doesn't look like Sudou will...and you could argue Asami doesn't either, as he never regretted what he did in the beginning)

    Fei admitted at the end that it was never about Asami killing his father. "Yes, the past doesn't matter. I just wanted to make you mine". That, just after he proceeded to kiss him.

    It's the same reason as Sudou.

    The Anon I was replying to (if that was you) made comparisons suggesting that the differences between Sudou and Fei was that Fei had better reasons, treated Aki better, was seductive rather than criminal, none of which is true. And if that WAS you, you are still trying to make it out like Fei is better than Sudou because he "learned a lesson." But since we haven't seen the end of this arc, you cannot use the argument that Sudou hasn't.

    We were discussing how this revamped scene now makes the Sudou arc too similar to the Fei arc, so Asami is not relevant to this argument. It's a limp argument anyway when you have to point to another character and go "Well, look what he did!" Frankly, all three suck when you get right down to it. Some just suck better than others.
