This'd definitely pissed someone off but sure, whatever doesn't makes you sleep at night

Such a waste of a great art style.

I don't even care about the rape stuff, but the balance just doesn't work—and by that, I mean the visual balance. If Taeui were prettier, I might've stuck around, but the characters have zero chemistry. Even the side couple (Xinlu and Yuri) outshines them with just 2 books, while these two need 3+ and other side couples to get any real development and make them look good. Their relationship isn't 50/50 at all—like I said, the balance is off.

The dynamic could be good, so why is it so boring? Oh, I know why! Taeui just isn't my type. I'd much prefer seeing Ilay with someone equally messed up in the head so their dynamic could be a true 50/50. But of course, Taeui is the "good guy" with a likable personality—which is so boring that the fucked-up top has to carry the entire plot. I don't hate him, but he's bland enough that the story only stays interesting because of Ilay.
