Honestly with all of their cyclical arguments and relationship issues that they have I really wish they would go get couples counseling (and I wish it was more accessible/accepted in Japan) they’re not a healthy couple and honestly if they can’t sort things out and continue in these cycles it might be best for both if they broke up. It’s harsh but it’s also cruel to expect them to be able to “heal” each other when they both have very deep seated issues that they are both woefully unqualified to resolve

It’s honestly so masterful how the author has crafted the narrative because like the MC we’re falling for the ML despite his horrific crimes and secretly hoping for something more. I’m always thoroughly impressed when authors are able to change up the narrative encouraging the audience to ignore said atrocities in exchange for the love story
That’s where the uke should have said
“alright, I’m paid, peace out yall! Sorry your body’s were too janky and unreliable to be of any use. Have fun being bitter cuz you didn’t get to fuck the boss”
