You have said something that picked my attention: "unused potential for an original story which doesn't end with a message: let's forget rape and cruelty and be togheter forever" and to be honest and with all due respect, I don't think Yaoi have space for that... because 90% of the stories here HAVE THAT KIND OF PLOT! the other 10% are either cute/fluffy or very romantic but at the end only serves for entertaining and just that (at least the one I've read, I'm new in this btw)
you have a point, but i have read some stories which you can call ,,realistic''? so when i started reading this one i really wanted it to end differently- this manga had a good start, seemed to be something new, which would be satisfying for the readers and the mangaka too, because she would create something fresh, unusual. but it is just my opinion.
It still explores rape pretty well. I mean he's traumatized but it enters a grey area because he was initially interested but the preparation was wrong. Seme should have stopped and thus he apologized but the uke didn't move on either. The scenario is pretty common/realistic and I like how she's exploring a more complex situation.
i had high hopes for this manga especially because it's sakyo aya's work. i thought it is going to be diffrent from the well known scheme, but it is not :||||| unused potential for an original story which doesn't end with a message: let's forget rape and cruelty and be togheter forever
