I definitely didn't see that coming since the relationship has been so wholesome so far. It's not going to stop me from reading but it is disappointing that the author went this route instead of a different way to express "his anger" tsk tsk
Chapter 1 through 5 felt like part of the story was missing, I had to go back to check to make sure I didn't skip a chapter because major plot points came out of nowhere.
Ch 8. MC has a right to be pissed, I would be too. Especially if somebody I thought was my friend said "I think I can date you" like what kind of f***** up thing is that to say.
Plot did NOT age well.
I read this when I was younger and it originally came out which was the 2000s.
I was used to this kind of storyline with somebody close to my age. So I didn't see a problem with it but now that I'm older I'm so sad that the author went with a 15-year-old (now 17 in the storyline.)
They could have easily made it about college life, then the whole teacher and student aspect would still be there but they would at least be legal adults.
It's crazy how the legal age of adulthood in Japan is 20 but the legal age of consent is 15 to 16 years of age. They really need to change that.
Also though, America still has 31 states with the legal age of consent at 16 so I guess we need to change our laws to. Ugh
Reading this through the second time I see so many more plot holes than I remember. Or just lazy writing, really noticeable when Vivian was stabbed. She's laying on the ground dead or alive wasn't very clear at the time. But nobody was rushing to call a doctor or to call a priest to try and heal her. And then when the high priest showed up he could have apparently saved her as they said later in a chapter but that didn't happen. I feel bad for Vivian since she was there literally just to move the plot along so the author didn't put much thought into her actions and the actions around her. Wow. Lol
Either way it was a good read.
I love that the mangaka included a married LGBTQ couple in the back round like it was normal. Makes the manga feel more modern especially since nowadays it's way more accepted.
On one hand, when the MC struggles with thinking about a future with their same-sex partner it's a point of tension to make the story more "interesting" but when the manga comes out and 20 first century it feels very old school since lots of the same-sex couples have made a future for themselves. Whether by going in around about way to get married or even adoption to have kids.
On that note! I would love to read a manga where the point of tension for the couple is having a kid, whether through adoption or IVF, ECT
I love that he just got left at the door like that, it's what he gets for not listening. What a prick of a guy, I wonder how his personality is going to change when he starts to actually date the MC. He's got an excuse to be flipping the way he is since they're just fuck buddies but can't be having that attitude when they're dating.
That cover is extremely deceiving. Ugh. I hope this was going to be a romantic story, instead it turned into a horror. Poor omega
Don't let family tie you down. If he didn't have the love and obligation to his family that he has currently he wouldn't be in that situation and the first place. And even if it was after the situation had already started he could jump out the window.
So to me the moral of the story is don't love your family. Lmao
Stockholm syndrome, delusion, or denial whatever you want to call it he's going through acting like MC wasn't just treated the same way ML dad treated ML mom. The first thing MC thinks about is ML scars from childhood, but the first thing I thought when I heard that story was like "damn he turned out to be just like his dad. "
I already knew at the beginning, but it's nice to be reminded that it's one of those "ignore the toxic red flag stories." Lol
I'm sad that the translation will stop but I will definitely be buying the official translations.
Luckily I have money so when I like a story that has an official translation I will still read the unofficial translation while buying the official translation.
Thank you for your hard work.
MCs two best friends are indirectly rejecting a part of his identity (being Gay). That really hurts, especially since he's already scared to talk to them about it.
I love how romantic it was even though it started as sex friends essentially, felt more realistic. Rui is just too cute!!!
Studios that think it won't be an issue to change the art style after 50+ chapters. Even if the art change isn't bad the fact is you spent 50 plus chapters falling in love with the current art style and character designs. What makes them think that it's not going to matter to us, I do like the storyline and plot but it's just hard for me to continue when it feels like completely different characters.
He's just like his dad, no surprise that his dad would help him manipulate and corner MC. Sounds like that's exactly why he did to ML mom. That mental issue is definitely genetic. Lol.
