Love Is Not Enough

I think this wasn’t a really happy ending for Yuri. Now, she has no friends, no family (other than Oya and the child), will spend all her energy to getting accepted by Oya’s parents and the Oya syndicate, won’t have the freedom to do whatever she wanted anymore, will always have a target on her back (including the child), will have to experience more trauma and violence and be able to tolerate it, deal with Oya’s burden, have guilt towards her former family and friends, and the list goes on.
I don’t think she’ll regret her choice now but overtime she will. Tbh, her life will just be filled with loneliness and Oya and the child will not be enough to fill the loneliness and the harsh reality of being in the Yakuza, no matter how much he wants to make her happier after she sacrificed so much for him. I think this mangas message (among others) is that sacrificing your life for a dangerous man will come at a huge price. Honestly, Yuri could have broken up with Oya and find another man and still lived a safer life while keeping her loved ones, especially since she was happier when her family and friends were involved in her life.

    This is such a funny thing to say icl
    Bcs the whole point of the manga from ch1 to the end was about Yuri wanting to be with this dangerous man and the journey through it.

    Well, she got what she wanted at a huge price. Even when she chose Oya over her family, she still didn’t want her family and friends to hate her.

    No worries! It’s not worth it tbh. The fact that she based her worth on getting a man really shows how she didn’t view herself as a person with goals and ambition.

    **rant incoming**
    I really liked the art style a lot, and I was hoping they would be together. But seeing how she came from a very loving family and had friends who were going to give her another chance, it made me so irritated to see her throw her safety and friends and family away just to be with a man. Honestly, he fucking sucked and should have married his former Yakuza fiancé and not married Yuri.
    He was older and knew he was getting her into danger. It wasn’t until he lost his sight (thanks to yuris dad) that he started to realize how very selfish he was from taking Yuri away from her family. Of course Yuri would stay with him….her family disowned her and want nothing to do with her. So it makes sense she’ll still stay with him even when she stops being in love with him.
