I think its cus his ancestor took it upon himself to carry the hurting part cause byakuya or whatever was a beautiful priestess blah blah and the priest dude gets hurt emotionally when his lover carries the pain of his own injuries... it could break him into suicide when they both would die... idk that's how i see it cause black hair dude blames/can'tforgive himself for Chihaya getting hurt always
I'd rather be in Chihaya' position. It's true that Ikumi doesn't get any wounds, but in turn those wounds are transferred to his loved one. That's even more painful than getting those wounds himself. So no, it's not unfair.
Plus, there are characters who think like you and look at Ikumi with disdain even though this whole misfortune business isn't his fault.
This is so unfair! How come they share the misfortunes when Ikumi really doesn't get hurt? Even when Chihaya gets hurt - Ikumi doesn't get those wounds.. One fucking unbalanced sharing of misfortunes and it makes me pissed. They don't share shit.. Chihaya has to carry all of them.
