It's weird that people think Akitora loves Rogi more than Anesan. Like, yeah, he loves Rogi, but what makes you think he loves him more or less than his wife? Or that he doesn't love his wife at all? People are capable of loving more than one person, and it seems to me that Akitora is just greedy and wants to have everyone he loves by his side lol
I really want to know what caused Akitora to hate Rogi and not interact with him anymore for decades, and why Rogi hated how Tatsuyuki's eyes reminded him of Anesan. Like a lot of people, I really believe he's involved with Anesan's death (maybe he didn't directly cause it, but he was at least involved somehow). That's the only reason I can think of that Akitora would forever cut ties with him, because right now it looks like Akitora would forgive him for most things.
This is an interesting take!! I actually forgot that Anesan died 7 years later, and that made me so sad she was so cool :( I completely agree that people can love more than one person, but akitora is really a dick for doing that to his wife in the way that it's not something they talk about, not an agreement, a consensus or something like that, it's just pure greediness from akitora and anesan has to tolerate him and that's why ppl are mad and think the worst of him lmao (righteously so might I add lol) I just basically repeated what you said lmao your comment was really an eye opener for me, have a nice day!!
Since Anesan was previously a prostitute and since she knows the immorality of the yakuza world, I think she clearly understood what she was getting into when she married Akitora. I really do think Akitora loves her, but he’s greedy and also wants Rogi so he’ll take Rogi because he can. It sucks to see an amazing woman like her putting up with this treatment, but it also shows how strong she is so she’s really my favourite character!
It’s so funny how this is a BL and yet what I don’t really care that much about Rogi/Akitora as a romantic pairing, I just want to know why they break up and what happened to Anesan.
I hate McQueen’s name because it reminds me of Lightning McQueen from Cars. Kachow.
