Uh no. The thing why it never worked out with Yumi no matter how long they were together is because Yumi never really confronted Kanchan unlike Shuuna is doing. Yumi will just act like the abuse is nothing thus not ending it. While Shuuna pushes Kanchan to face things. Even Mayama, he throws Yumi off balance, making him face reality instead of just smiling through it.
I love Kanchan. I do. Despite the abuse i love him. And i think part of the reason why he is hesitant to ask for forgiveness and chooses to carry his cross is because he still fears that he might fo the same thing with Shuuna, which means he treasures Shuuna so much.

And what’s wrong with that? In my opinion, a relationship works both ways and each party ALWAYS has the option to leave. Of course, Yumi did absolutely nothing wrong to make Kan beat him up. That was entirely on Kan’s part. The abuse was 100% wrong and it was Kan’s fault.
HOWEVER, Yumi could’ve walked off any time. True, he may have been afraid of Kan, but you could easily have called the police if you REALLY were fed up with it. In Yumi’s position, I feel like he still wanted to keep the relationship because Kan was everything to him despite the abuse. That is a DECISION that he made and that was not forced by anyone but himself. It’s your decision to love someone and that’s not as uncontrollable as you think. Love is a DECISION that you make, whether to stay or not with someone despite their shittiness.
True, Kan was gaslighting him, but if Yumi truly felt backed into a corner, he could’ve called for help. I understand he might’ve feared being known as gay by the police, but AGAIN it is a decision that one can make after you weigh the benefits and costs. You can’t have everything in the world. No decision comes without repercussions.
Abuse is hard, it’s bad, it’s traumatizing, BUT you can take action to protect yourself. It all boils down to whether you are ready to leave from the toxic relationship and ready to take it all down seriously or not.
I am speaking as a victim of abuse myself because leaving is never easy and it’s scary as fuck (which is why this story and it’s prequel really speaks to me on an extremely personal level and I love every bit of it). You feel as if you have nothing but them and you’re too ashamed to leave for help because you don’t want to be viewed as weak and stupid. But leaving was the BEST decision I ever made in my life and looking back, I see that it was my own fault for being such a coward and emotionally weak and letting my partner destroy me like that and I accept that. The abuser was an asshole but part of the blame DOES lie on me.

If i could thumbs up your reply i would.
I'm glad you found the courage to finally walk away from the abuse. It's not easy. I was sexually abused by my own relatives when i was still a preteen. Im almost 30 now but i still could not find the courage to tell the most important persons to me: my family.

Am i blaming Yumi for what happened to him? I really dont know.. All i did was state how Yumi's personality is. The bad side of his personality. The one we perceive as strong because he smiles through everything but in truth is destructive and toxic because he refuses to acknowledge that something is terribly wrong. Good thing Mayama sees through his bullshit.
Taku all the waaaay! Win him over with!!!!
