I don't understand why as a parent you would only give your blessing to a marriage if they complete your condition of selling 10 million copies. Like yes, there's encouragement but at the end of the day, it's telling about his relationship with his family.
He only accepts you if you accomplish something, if not you get threatened. The fact that shinobu understood the threat means that it's not the first time it's happened.
It just shows he's not really the best parent by his false acceptance and currently unattainable goal. I feel like if this happened in real life he would end up in a nursing home ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍

Um… i kinda understand it. Like, its a nirm in the weathly world. You cant become a princess unless you are one (or close) or get rich enough for it to not to matter
Like, my cousin has a girlfriend, they like each other so much, but she cant do a thing except having good grades. Shes 18 but cant even cook pasta… and not like shes a rich kid. So naturally, his parents doesnt like her bc of that. So they oppose the relationship.

Like from what I read, when they start to have problems sae runs away and avoids akihito, even tho akihito is consistently trying to communicate. Akihito is doing all the pursuing as well, so why is he the problem, when sae is not communicating?
I get the whole "well akihito doesn't understand the complexities of a gay man struggling to date a straight man," but isn't that just a way to shift all the blame onto akihito? You could very well flip it and say that sae doesn't understand how commitment works when a straight man dates another person. Which sounds ridiculous, right?
All in all, the issue here is communication. Sae lacks communication (which we have seen thru his avoididant tendencies) and I guess akihito can try to constantly reassure him, but again sae would have to open up and tell him about what he feels insecure about so that akihito can understand and change how he acts.
I don't think that akihito is all to blame, I think both are.
I usually don't comment, but these other comments are really confusing me. (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
I just want to beat the shit out of that mercenary guy (╬ ̄皿 ̄)凸
