Psycho tendencies sugar-coated with fluff.
I need to give credit to sensei's way of transition. It maybe fucked up, but the characters love each other anyway. One who wants to be needed and with the other who extremely needs him. They compliment. I still find this interesting. Well, at least for me. ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Exactly. They both NEEDED each other. I do know the seme was a rapist. But the uke forgave him for it, meaning actually forgave him. That explains why the uke actually did NOT display symptoms of Stockholm Syndrome. He didn't fall in love with Kanade AFTER he chained him up, much LESS ever think that he deserved it.
Kyouran and I have had discussions around similar tropes in similar manga that have lead to fundamental agreement, as we apparently do here, in one case and disagreement in another. This comment explains exactly what difference lead to the agreement on one hand and disagreement on the other. THANK you.
Yes! the uke felt like he didn't deserve to have an feelings about anything or anyone before Kanade came around. The extra actually quite proved that he had emotions before that, but hid them from everyone. They both need the other to complete them. Even though, the way Kanade went about it were kind of messed up, but he did it with love. And he is a yandere after all. They do that sort of thing. like flipping a switch. one minute out of their mind and the next as innocent as always.
Mitsuru's ex has some kind of twisted love for him. Marrying someone, telling Mitsuru about it as if it's nothing, as if nothing must change. I guess, giving in to social pressure, like marrying and having a family as expected from him is really hard. He wants to maintain his status but he also don't want to let go of Mitsuru. It's selfish. And he finally broke down when things didn't go as he planned. Mitsuru want out of the relationship which he cannot accept. I kinda feel sorry for him but I really want Mitsuru to be with Shougo.
When you are being super self-conscious.

Around10 years ago, this manga introduced me to BL. I was shocked by how dark it was, but at the same time, I was immediately captivated. I was brokenhearted but it lit up a different fire in me. I realized, I've been loving BL stories for a decade now. And i don't regret any moment of it. Thank you for this!
My heart broke both for Maki and Arata. For Maki, as he struggles to overcome his past, the pain of loss and betrayal. Arata, on the other hand, tries to endure all so he can stay by Maki's side even if his feelings is being regard as only due to "imprinting", knowing someone else is causing Maki's pain. I was really glad when Arata's feelings started to reach Maki. I kinda think that Rowen-san was their cupid. ヾ(☆▽☆)
Thank you for this series! (づ￣ ³￣)づ
I love the story and the characters. I love how the story progressed and showed us each character overcoming their obstacles and eventually finding what will make them happy. You can't help but love each one of them, but I think, for me, Aoi's personality made the greatest impact. They are all lovable and my heart broke with all their painful pasts but I just like how Aoi is always moving forward with a smile, despite how being an omega can potentially bring his life down. He did not allow it. He just faced every obstacles with his harwork. Thank you sensei and translators for working on this! This is such an inspiration.
PS. Sorry for the long post. (≧∀≦)
