Does his “amnesia” ever go public? Like the hospital records somehow end up on the media causing the fans to understand the sudden change or smth?? I’m genuinely curious about that. I personally think I’d be a cool idea to roll with but idk (￣▽￣;)
I like how they communicated towards the end. That was nice. But then that’s it.
First of all, holy crap, MC must be a saint or smth cause ain’t no way he actually forgave ML. If someone had purposefully isolated me from the surrounding social world by threatening my friends and anyone with who I was acquainted with I would have socked them in the head more than once. That’s a shitty move if you ask me. I wouldn’t be able to forgive something like that. Plus, not only is that psychologically damaging, especially to a teenager, but that can also have an impact in future interactions due to the trauma. In other words, trust issues. Especially towards anyone who shows affection. Now, I’m not a psych major, so feel free to correct me on anything that I’ve said. Moving on from the reality aspect of it (I am highly aware this is fiction), what frustrated me the most about MC was the lack of boundaries towards their relationship considering just how important guiding was to him (as in life or death) and how easily he allowed himself to be manipulated. He could’ve easily set boundaries knowing how badly their friendship had ended yet he allowed himself to get swayed.
Secondly, ML is such a dick. Never learned how to love due to emotional neglect? In a way, I understand that part. Not knowing how to properly react to rejection and being afraid to lose that little bit of love he found (even if it hadn’t been romantic) is sometimes a result of said neglect. I experienced it. Hell, I’m still afraid of rejection but even I know love can’t be forced. A no is an no. I would much rather have the other person happy than miserable. And if I’m being honest, his love seemed more like obsession and not like love. MC was the first to show any kind of affection towards ML so it makes sense for him to try and find other ways to keep his attention after getting rejected. But he could’ve handled it so much differently. Now, I’m all in for some toxic yaoi but this was honestly a bit frustrating for me. Though, maybe if there were a bit more to the story it could’ve been a bit easier to read. Still wouldn’t forgive him, tho.
But whatever. It’s just a fictional story anyways and this comment is basically my rant towards the sudden wave of frustration I was hit with while reading, lol. Gotta admit though, the art style is pretty cool. I feel like I’ve seen in elsewhere, just can’t remember where.
