This is a copy paste but :
The other stories was protrayed to be bad or evil or just porn. But when its subtle and normalised in stories like this, it's problematic.
A great example of a comic that have dark themes but isnt problematic is harada becus they dont romanticise rape nor downplay the effects of trauma on the victim.
This comic however, brush off consent , insert sexist comments here and there, etc etc, without addressing it? its not an issue if the reader understand its just fiction like you and me but if the reader thinks that real life romance is something like this, thats where the problems arise, young readers might be taken advantage of by people like the dude in the comic. So this comic is a bit like grooming the readers to think a dude touching u without permission in a classroom is normal.
Im not trying to hate on the author, just trying to spread awareness to some of the younger readers.
There is a difference between full on dark themes and mind fuck compared to uwu the dude touched me without consent but it feels good so its okay and i love him. the latter looks so normal that some people might miss that irl thats not supposed to happen. While the former its easy to tell this is just fantasy and its wrong and there is consequences to the victim such as trauma or stockholm syndrome.
Why is someone suddenly bringing up how sexist this manga is......... this clearly isn't and if you and your male best friend are different from the main leads and that's normal. Why are they giving this whole rant when they clearly dont know the term sexist......... Also how the hell would they say this manga sucks because there isn't consent but then goes to like and read some dark and prombelic yaoi manga where the MC is typically raped by his lover. This manga clearly has more consent then some of the stuff you're reading, but you just want to shit on it since it's a straight couple........ I'm not saying it isn't okay to read some dark and kinky yaoi I read some and liked them in a weird way, however, when you try to shit on a manga then read a manga that is the same stuff you excuse the first manga of doing then putting that second manga on your list of already read is very hypothetical. Keep the same engery girly and stop using terms if you dont really understand them as it's harmful to the message and meaning of the term.
