The moment I saw Reiichi(?) I thought, "gold digger or not, that's a shady ass man" And then he pulls the classic, "Don't tell [insert character who should absolutely be told]" line and just ugh no Run, kid.
But not to that extent? I thought the kid would be just randomly evil or whatever since that's a pretty big trope lately But evil(ish) for a reason? Little mastermind without the overly "wow im smart" vibe going on? I like it.
ill probably come back to this story but right now, how obvious the neighbor guy is really irks me like, he has to be putting in effort to be that blatantly shady, right?
it's been 15 years nothing really fazes me but this entire story, i just can't help thinking "holy shit this is so weird. i mean, im here for it, but it's weeeiiird"
and then nope again
its so ridiculous its almost funny
or at least it was, but then he says hes 13 again and im like
"oh wait there are my long lost morals, lol bye"
Lol me
