I actually kinda like it idk.. but I get what you're saying it's kinda feels weird he still feels this guilty about something from over a decade ago and the build up of their relationship was over a span of what? 3 months. It is kinda hard to believe he cares this much
Was looking for this comment.. the narration is too on the nose, the whole point of a visual novel is to show not tell. I really do not fucking care what he thinks, you're supposed show me the manipulation through the story. Everything feels so rushed and forced now, and I don't feel dread or any emotions at all for either of these characters.
The backstory had potential, this entire manwha has really good potential but it's been botched because the author ran out of ways to add depth to their conversations and lives. Besides the top smelling his shirt like the creep he is, there is literally no other development to him being a perverted loser in hs. And the guilt bottom feels makes no fucking sense to me, maybe I'm just not as sympathetic but idk, the whole relationship is so floppy, and not in the good psychological way that makes sense, it's just shitty. I guess harada spoiled me with actual good development so these wannabe perverted relationships just can't compare
Yh yk author was trying too hard to make the read "deep" and "psychological", it could've been good if the pacing wasn't actual shit, everything was rushed into one chapter; Sure we get some backstory but could you really call that the reason why Mc refuses to leave because he's trapped from his "guilt" and he feels obligated to remain? It's a decent storyline in theory but it really doesn't work for this...just my opinion lol, glad we got an update tho, seems like everything's going on hiatus these days
