I think people are forgetting that Yu was raped and black mailed by the same "acquaintance...

Honestly I am just trying to think of them as two different stories at this point

Ah i see !

Exactly

Same I just pretend they’re two different characters cause if we skip the rape trope it’s a a cute story & it’s not like I’m reading the work legally too

same here... it's not that difficult either considering the seme's massive character change/development. Just seems like different characters and different dynamics.

I think the artist/author purposefully changed the seme's appearance so he looked kinder to make us forget about what he did

Yup... and it's working tbh, especially if you deliberately try to forget those darker chapters

Yeah I think the author changed it because the initial goal changed on which they had in the beginning

I can see what you guys are saying but we shouldn't just over look the shitty thing he did even if he had some development yk.?

Definitely true

yes yes. I think many people are over looking it because of his devolpment in the story so far.

Most likely, there’s also the people who like the rape trope (which is why there’s so many BLs with the trope, it brings in a lot of attraction and readers.The attention is attraction, negative or not. The authors know this) unfortunately there’s nothing we can do other than either ignore the people or stop reading this all together.

For me seeing as we are already past the rape trope and will probably never be brought up again with the fact that I’m reading this illegally; I will be continuing this series out of curiosity and just my personal tradition that Ive kept up for awhile now (which is to finish reading everything I pick up).

I agree I also like how you worded it too! And i will also be finshing up the series as well.
