God, I hate any depiction of pedophilia (since there was no molestation, I've scratch off molest/er/ation).
As someone Who was molested when she was younger than this fictional child, I just don't understand how people can read or watch the depiction of a child being so horribly tortured and...enjoy it? Like...make it make sense.
What's so funny is...homeboy grown teenage self is attracted to the physical aspect of the eight year old. He saw him as a suitable partner.
I just want to tell everyone here that....Your reading choices and habits tell a LOT about you. A LOT! You nasty freaks. But you know what, at least this is tame and there's no portrayal of molestation.
I said what I said.

How could you guys ship Ikou and Norihiko?
The age difference should have told y'all something
He GROOMED Ikou.
Ranzou and Ikou are so, so, so pitiful.
How they hell are y'all shipping Ranzou and his care taker. Once again, Ranzou is a child in a man's body. Someone who has been through soooo much trauma. Hw was possibly sexual molested as a child. Let him rest, y'all. He is so pure. He deserves to be happy in a safe place where he is loved.
Uni friend. A complex human with weaknesses and faults, but I ship him so hard with Ikou.
Y'all Ikou is gay. Stop trying to make him and his wife a thing.
Now, the wife. Omg, I LOVE HER! She is beautiful, smart, strong, kind, and caring. She's amazing. She deserves so MUCH better. I don't wan her in that crazy family. I want her free and far away from this shit!
Ikou's man was sick. She was being used as a blow up doll, neglected and failed by everyone in her life, craved love, and was angry and hurt at her husband neglecting her child. That's why she went mad. She was sick.
My favorite characters are as follow: Ranzou, the wife, and uni friend.
Ikou is a broken, pitiful man. I just want him saved. He knew he needed to be saved--be away from the sadistic, sick Norihiko.
I'm tired of all these perves in this manga.
This manga reminds me of a crazier version of Sakura Gari.
I loved Renai Nante by this author but have been pushing this manga off, and now I regret that decision. But I’m glad I still got the chance to read it! Beautiful! Heartfelt! I cannot wait for the next chapters! Omg! This is the kinda shit I ask for when I ask for good yaoi to read. It speaks on real life issues that some gay men might have gone through or go through, especially in a country like Japan. This is fucking gorgeous. I wished I could buy the physical copy of her work in English. Beautiful!!!
