True true but Keios embodies the countless small hurts (with a generous sprinkle of hyperbole) that most people get to know one way or another.
which doesn't make him a villain. not even abhorrent.
it's way worse.
It's f-a-m-i-l-i-a-r.
Keios is all those "I thought you didn't care" and "I didn't think it was THAT important" rolled into one, and that's not the kind of offense you can call the cops for. Unfortunately, very very human, unfortunately absolutely NOT unique and rare and unfortunately unfortunately just as shown here:
not even out of malice
Not with a big evil plan.
Just out of "I didn't think of you, should I have?"

Right?? This ML is a piece of shit, he thoughtlessly neglects someone bc he belives they're not going anywhere but he has plausible deniability because he "didn't mean to". He pushed her to the point of resigning to a loveless life and delegates her as an unloved woman knowing how harsh society views that. The story makes it seem lighthearted but its like he slowly gives FL little cuts then hides his hands behind his back... but oh atleast he doesnt rape and kill people, that means he's fine (:

some people think I think keios is a good person or fine man(?) no bruh... maybe because english is not my language so my point is not conveyed well.
if you compare him with a normal person or a really good man, then as I said, keios is stupid and brainless. the evil actions he did because of his stupid brain are certainly unforgivable.
but what I mean is if you compare him with other ml red flags. if other ml red flags are filled with rape, grooming etc. 'keios' his red flag is because he is stupid and insensitive to his fiancee's feelings. so if you say how bad his red flag is? well not that bad. but is his action wrong? yes wrong.

Well thats because his brain so stupid. what can i say because i have met someone like this. i am annoyed with him but his brain is too stupid to know what he did wrong. even if i slap him he is still confused what is wrong with his thinking.
even to the person he loves, because of his stupid brain he still doesn't understand. and actually this Keios character is also in several other stories. The most difference is where not only playing mentally but also playing physically
I Dont like keios, but cant hate him. at least compared to the other ML who are red flags, this guy is still not too bad. He is very stupid and idiotic and has an brainless but at least he is still willing to listen to other people's opinions and tries to fix his mistakes (even though it's too late).
I mean, I know that his attitude now will look like a selfish man who rejects his fiancee's wishes, but I understand because he has just opened his mind to pay attention to his fiancee. I think it's better for them to fix the misunderstanding first, then if FL still wants to study abroad, then i hope he will understand his fiancee's wishes and not forbid her.
