i really wanted the bottom on the 2nd to break up with the other, jokes like that arent funny
Truly. It's bullying and certainly manipulative. We see how hurt his partner is. What i did like is how his partner becomes forward in correcting him and making sure he knows when he takes it too far. In a way, their relationship matured because he realized his mistake and his partner held him responsible for taking it too far. (but yeah, totally irked me)
I honestly feel like none of them were in the right in that situation. Kazumi was already insecure to begin with, so thinking Takafumi was cheating on him would only feed onto that, meanwhile Takafumi can't really say anything as his agency or whatever it's called told him to be quiet about it. Takafumi was in a tight spot and all he could say at that situation was to "trust me".
I actually really like the obstacle that 'drama' presented, which was trust. Kazumi didn't trust Takafumi enough to understand that he isn't the type to cheat, all the while Takafumi didn't trust Kazumi enough to tell him the big secret even when knowing he probably won't tell it to others.
that's an enlightening perspective, and actually objective. thinking back, im personally biased to being expected to do something when one doesn't even know what's happening. i guess that's also because i rarely ever trust anyone... and consider that kind of trust to be blind, instead of trust being natural when you believe in someone.
I agree with them both having issues with trust but I still feel like Takafumi could have given a simple explanation that doesn't require him specifying the situation to help reassure his partner especially when Kazumi directly communicated what he felt about the situation. He didn't properly communicate back despite continuously messaging Kazumi.
1. Kazumi was in the right all along. He confronted Takafumi about it but was only told to trust him blindly. It wasn't about him not being able to express himself, but it was the absurdity of it all and Takafumi just wanted Kazumi to "understand".
2. Wow. I suppose the joke was meant to slap some sense into him when his lover finally "reacted", but what a jerk. His lover's tolerance is simply a miracle, a one in a million.
3. Aight, they totally hyped me up. The 180° change in personality, the confusion of Norihisa, and the turtle. Hahahaha
