Usually, I would quit a manga like this. I hate when boy’s love mangas do this, slipping in r@pe is not okay. But the r@pe is different here. It’s actually a plot device for some reason. I like how at least the author doesn’t try to romanticize it and both the r@pist and victim both see it as a means of control and not an expression of love. R@pe is used as a way a seme expresses love in most manga and that’s a thousand more times disgusting. While I appreciate seeing r@pe for what it is, the manga still fails to properly show how traumatic r@pe is. The ikr in the scene wehere they have genuine love making scene. The uke isn’t the least bit scared. Which matches his personality and his almost impossible sturdyness and ability to stay strong even after horrible events. The seme feels horrible for what he did and is scared to the point of his whole personality of being a b!tch changed. But if the author wants to have a plot device that shows how sh!tty the seme used to be. Don’t use r@pe as that device. It’s disgusting. And unrealistic, most rapists don’t feel sorry.
