i heard that the rape wasn’t romanticized, but if that were really true, they wouldn't be so infatuated with each other after everything that happened from the very first chapter. but that’s not my issue here.
my issue is that utsumi had to be the one yearning the most for akamine for a stupid and completely underdeveloped reason. how the hell did he have YEARS of hope for a stranger who helped him ONCE during a slightly inconvenient situation only to then do something way worse? "you're better than those people." who? the asshole who brutally forced himself on you is somehow better than some guys forcing you to drink some bitter stuff? talk about false moral equivalence.
and now you're telling me that after six motherfucking years, where he’s looking for revenge and supposedly has the upper hand, he falls in love out of no fucking where, gets HEarTbRoKeN by akamine's pathetic platonic crush (which was a very wrong move btw, it diverted utsumi's trauma to look like mere jealousy on his part) gets used by him again, and then goes back on his revenge to rescue his ass several times? all because of the same braindead claim that this mf is a good person??? he wanted to distinguish the good and bad in akamine when HE BARELY KNEW THIS BITCH!!!
meanwhile there's akamine who took wayyy too long to express genuine regret for what he did, and only did it out of horniness, unemployment, and despair (but obv we have to pretend it was for some other dramatic reason instead teehee). and he even gets to be forgiven by his own victim just like he wanted. what a happy ending ig..
art is majestic but this dumbass plot does it 0 justice
