Really? Just curious.. I can't think how being lonely is toxic.. Are you implying being lonely as in being kind of obsessed with spending every time with your partner and not giving space or something?
Being lonely is okay, if you like it. I’m a pretty lonely person and that’s because I choose to be.
But being lonely isn’t what makes this relationship toxic: I’m saying that it isn’t healthy to try and use someone to fix yourself or kid yourself into thinking that if as long as you have this person, you’ll be okay. (Akira using Shogo)
Because, what if one day Shogo decided to leave? What would Akira do?? The author didn’t dive in enough to the characters personalities to know how Akira would react. Akira could get desperate and kidnap Shogo, or he’ll emotionally abuse Shogo by threatening to kill himself if Shogo left, or physically abuse Shogo out of anger, or follow and sabotage Shogo from trying to move on—there’s so many examples. Do you kinda get what I mean now??
Stuff like this happens in relationships with emotionally dependent people. And they’re almost never healthy relationships.
Okayyy.... I think I get it? But I don't think Akira is that kind of person and you shouldn't take a manga so seriously.. Plus, as you said, their isn't much depth to the characters so don't think their relationship can become toxic..
On second thought, don't mind me.. I just wanted to say don't burden yourself by thinking that their relationship can get toxic when there isn't even a hint of it.. Let's just hope that they stay happy and you stay happy too.. ლ(´ڡ`ლ)
Agree to disagree. And thanks for the concern I hope you’re happy tooo
Haha..
I really liked that art and I love tropes that have soft-tops and bigger-tall-bottoms, it’s hot. But one thing that really irked me was that Akira’s behavior toward the end was becoming too dependent (with the whole “I need you” and something along the lines of “I’m so lonely without you”), it could become very unhealthy.
When I was younger I wouldn’t care, probably even like it actually. But now that I’m aware of these things and what happens with relationships with those like Akira (and even more severe), it could become very toxic.
