The art drew me in, but problematic tropes forced me to reevaluate. The older seme and younger uke dynamic, especially in student-teacher relationships, is a major turnoff for me. Attempting to subvert this issue, authors often make the older character the bottom, reducing them to teenage looking boy. The power dynamic is problematic when the seme met the uke when uke was a minor.
