i love both of them and thats why my heart breaks a little every chapter :'))
So far Tetsuo is annoying af with his attitude, didn't know people were rooting for him?. Ikumi grew cold cause he was left alone after a traumatic event. Ofc he is unlikable right now, but i seriously don't want Tetsuo to become better than him. Author also ignores a lot of Ikumi's pov. Tetsuo has issues ofc but he didn't hesitate and left Ikumi alone cause...jealousy. 0 respect for him tbh. Ofc i really want them to become friends again but well
I mean we don’t know tetsuos full past rn he mentioned his grandfather and his brother not playing cuz of him?
But still he let his brother call ikumi a monster and then called him a monster when ikumi only did it for tetsuo he was so attached to him and felt like tetsuo wouldnt like him or pay attention to him anymore if he didn’t play if u care abt someone u wouldn’t treat them like that it was messed up just cause tetsuo may have had some hard times does not give him the right to mistreat others ecspecially someone who stands up for u and is always by ur side
I mean every person is different that’s why I can’t take any sides, if what happened in the past shaped him,which it did obviously he would develop something. You can’t control your emotions.
I agree with you, but at the same time, even if his past justifies his actions or gives at least more of an explanation, the character can still be unlikable. I mean, to me it'll be hard to surpass a kid losing his whole life & parents & later rejected by his sole best friend, to whatever made Tetsuo's relatives to stop playing and him wanting to be number one no matter what, to the point he didn't care about Ikumi at all.
I see people taking tetsuos side but no one takes ikumis? I pity both of them yes ikumi needed to grow as a person but he had severe trauma of his moms death he was all alone he only had testuo the brother didn’t like him he just wanted tetsuos love he thinks playing cello is the only way testsuo will care abt him even if it’s only hate. I understand being jealous but to hate Simone who cares that much about you and to call him a monster for something he can’t control is sh*tty..communication is key. What he did is unforgivable and for him to try to carry on convo as if he did nothing is just as bad. With tetsuo I understand being envious of a person to the point where u don’t want to look at them and it’s worse when that person doesn’t even know what they are doing but look they don’t know they just want to make you happy I would sit down and tell them why I’m jealous instead of result in cruel words and actions. You don’t do that to a friend. Ev specially if you say you care abt them while tetsuo makes friends and stuff and tries to get stronger. Ikumi is all alone with no friends no family only cello and thinking of his one friend that pushed him to survive it’s sad.
