The dad said that the mom didn't know the two weren't related. She probably thought that yuzuru and ai were half siblings and yuzuru was from an earlier marriage. Which would still be a taboo relationship.

That didn't make any sense to me. If they got married and had kids while they were in college how could the mother not know that they weren't related (unless she lied to her daughter about that, which doesn't seem likely) And weren't the two dads friends (base on the photo). Most of the time couple becomes friends which makes me believe that in all likelihood the mothers were friends or at least know each others. Also base on what the professor said, it is safe to assume that his parents died in college. All of those factors point to the mother knowing and even in the less likelihood that she didn't know- what wife doesn't ask her husband who the child is that she is raising (she did raise him for his primary years-if i remember correctly). And why wouldn't the husband tell her the truth- the lie makes him an asshole and could damage his relationship. To me it just seems like the mangaka is trying to end series with everyone coming out smelling like roses.

*shrugs* that's what the latest chapter says. The mother didn't know. And more current revelations tend to be the most accurate. Since it's the most recent thing the author wrote.
The manga is just riddled with plot holes. I mean, it's a shoujo manga with deus ex machine elements in it. There's going to be a lot of sloppily done plot lines with illogical reasonings. Especially when they're rushing the end.

Idk..I think she is still pretty awful for pressuring her daughter to marry a man she barely knows who is way older than her. In general she acts over the top controlling towards her. Like it's shoujo so it won't go that far but if it wasn't I could see their situation ending up like one of those dark psychological thrillers. I actually think she is abusive.

I am personally angry at the fact that the seme is perfectly okay with raping the person that he "loves" with no real remorse and the uke just goes along with it even though he realizes he was being raped...
AND VICTIM BLAMING.
Holy crap I nearly burst a vein from anger that the seme not only blamed the Ike for possibly being raped but abused him. AS IF BEING RAPED ISNT TRAUMATIZING ENOUGH BUT I GUESS THE SEME WOULDNT KNOW THAT BECAUSE HE IS ALSO AN ASSHOLE RAPIST.
What kind of message is this sending???
Rape is okay if you love the person and if they get raped by someone else it's the victim's fault because of their looks. Wtf??

I strongly disagree with your statement of "readers need to get used to this".
I don't believe that rape should ever be condoned in any shape or form. Yes they are characters but they are also depictions of people. And people are not wild beasts with no self control nor is another person a piece of meat.
It honestly saddens me that so many yaois have devolved to show such disgusting acts that distorts what live actually is. This isn't love. It's abuse.
This poses an even bigger problem since the media that we take in shapes our views on the world. Imagine normalizing rape in all media as a form of love. Think about how that can be so destructive.
There are many people with fetishes. Rape being one of them. You're free to read whatever floats your kink but you should never say that abusive behavior "can't be helped" or treat it like it's okay.

As I said...YOU NEED TO CHILL...really I'm just joking on my line ** "CHARACTERS LIKE THAT"in yaoi world are wild beasts that are yearning for meat.."LOL" ...its just a joke..I'm just helping you to cheer up but I think you misunderstood..ok..I'm sorry..I thought I could help you open your mind with this kind of stories and you knew there are police that can jail them if they do this in REAL LIFE...I mean ...come on.. SEPARATE REALITY FROM FICTION...see this is why it's fiction cause it will not happen in real life..well..it might happen, but we knew that THAT wrong in real life...so of course we would like to "JAIL THAT SON OF A BITCH"..see it's still separate...you know what ..your opinion is YOUR OPINION and MINE IS MINE..so I'm sorry if I offended you...and as always stay cool

Thank you, I agree with you on so many levels. Sure It's just a work of fiction, but it promotes and justifies rape and abuse, two things that can never be okay. It's alarming really. Take fifty shades of grey, for example: an abusive relationship diguised as a BDSM one. The fact that it's become so popular is honestly repulsive.

Maybe it is repulsive to you but there are many that enjoys it .i don't know how many time i have said this but as long as you know your limtis and trust me there are people who know what is fantasies and what is reality because they know it is wrong in reality that why they fantasies it sometimes because it is a fantasy .so in their fantasy yeah it is okay for what to like and to not

The fact that you take yaoi so seriously is actually pathetic.

Been 2 years since I first saw sensitive and aggressive comments hating on rape-plots. I've been reading yaoi for 10 years. At first these hurt-comments were tolerable, understandable, now it's just annoying and dramatic! Like seriously? People are so sensitive! Don't judge me bec. you don't know if it happened to me or not, BUT people hating on random manga bec. they are inclined to read rape-scenes or men forcing themselves on other men.. Dude, stop reading and move on! It's the author's prerogative. Translators stopped translating Okane Ga Nai because of people's sensitive asses, but did it stop real-life people from committing the crime? No. So stop whining!

The fact that you take rape as something normal is pathetic so please look at the mirror
I love it when a manga depicts a healthy friendship between girls!! That’s so hard to come by these days!
