i agree with you, i found the story twisted and sick, but very intriguing, a lot of people don't like it probably because it has to do with a kid, but its not like the artist is glorifying pedophilia or something. i found the story one of the more weirdly interesting works from harada thats fucked up, but good, and actually means something.
Yeah exactly he was protraying pedophilia in its true colors . As an author it wouldn't be right to directly attack pedos so he just made it that everyone can see the ending the way he pleases. That's why that author is pretty hardcore.
Tbh i thought i'd never like something with a shotacon tag guess i was wrong. But u know guys we can't let harada sensei's beautiful work as usual make us forget that this is all wrong . I don't consider that a happy ending but a really sad story of two broken people that just keep on breaking each other in a beautiful way. Oh yeah I'm twisted too and i'm sucker for twisted stories .
