what is with all these recent mangas that have beautiful art and a nice plot and then,,, boom a high schooler and a 30 year old in a relationship

You're free to feel weirded out since it's your opinion but it gets tiring to hear about it every now and again. o: I'm not saying this to be mean and I mean this seriously-- I suggest emailing the author about it. If you have the cash, a translator can help you with writing a proper complaint. Although I can't guarantee a good response... I remember a feminist who sent a complaint on twitter to a hentai artist about how train molestation is wrong etc but got laughed at by the readers. They did get an earnest response from the artist but it was out of politeness lol.

at the end of day i understand that people like different things. itās not like iām saying this is disgusting (would be different if it was a young child & adult), itās just as i myself am getting older i begin to find it odd. itās a complex matter in the world of fiction and iām sure always will be. thanks for being respectful in your reply though!! i know itās probably tiring to hear, but thereās also ppl that are tired of this trope i suppose. i used to enjoy and itās still something i can look past for the sake of beautiful art & a good plot. i just wanted to express my opinion bc like,,, this is a forum for talking lol

No prob. Honestly, it was the opposite for me. xD I used to care a lot about age gaps when I was in high school/college but I started to separate fiction from reality since it lessened my wrinkles. Caring so much about āproblematic tropesā just made my reading list smaller and frustrations bigger. In the end, I know where my morals lie in real life.
bitches get stitches
