Every single person who stood by Ryou when he was struggling is an absolute gem (especially Asami who got told off at her own post breakup pity party and still took it well), and at the story's core, Ryou, with his bleeding heart and personal struggles and no sugar coating of his experiences regarding discrimination, bullying, struggling with self acceptance, depression, being in a toxic relationship and then moving on in life and finding love and comfort whilst working towards something so personally fulfilling and important.... all of that makes this manga a beautiful read. I'm so happy for him, it hurts my heart.

This is such a delicate topic because to come into the world is not a child's fault, but I can understand the reticence Seiverian had towards approaching blanche given that she is also a consequence of long enduring traumatic circumstances in his life. Ofc the responses to one's own children born of sexual assault vary from person to person, but his conduct though not entirely justifiable are at the very least understandable. I hope moving forward both of them can heal and build a healthy and loving relationship.
