This could have been a masterpiece if the author hadn't used rape so easily and casually like that... and made it happen to a character that was already traumatic of past rape? That's just too much. I love the dynamic between miki and teru to death but it's kinda hard for me to read this, because it seems like everyone in the manga thought that rape is not that big of a deal.
How? The rapist got almost killed by Chiaki when he found out. That other dude was super depressed and felt guilty, because he could have done something but didn’t. It isn’t romanticized. It was terrible and left Miki with a trauma.
