I really don’t want to argue with you. And I won’t. He’s not pedophile. Did you read the story? He didn’t know.
And you’re twisting my words. I know it’s not her responsibility it never was. He felt loved something he didn’t get from his mother. But nowhere did I say that it was up to Ran to be responsible to give him love. It’s how the story played out.
My point is that this story is more than what you’re labeling it. It’s a story of a girl trying to grow up too quickly and learning that it’s not possible. But everyone in the comment is taking away from the bigger picture. Like did you even enjoy the story or were too fixated on criticizing on one point. Is there anything you liked about it. I’m trying to get people to read it.
I read this story as it was being released, and come to re-read my favorite chapters, so I check in with the comments. However, I can't help but think "Are we really reading the same thing?" None of the comments talk about what makes it a great story or are selective with your dislikes and portray the story in a way that's not correct. Outaro, fell in love with a grown up Ran, unbeknownst to him the reality of her actual age, and yes, they didn't stay together because it wasn't meant to be. Plus even when he found out, Outaro, still felt so strongly because for the first time he received pure love something he didn't get cause his mom wasn't present cause of her career, hence, the playboy troupe. So don't use the term 'pedophilia' so loosely, some of the readers have a habit of using terminology incorrectly and scare of readers from an amazing story.
And I rooted her with Hebi cause it was a natural couple progression, which was the opposite of what happened with Adult Ran and Outaro, it wasn't natural. There's so much more to this story don't let the comments that use terminology loosely.
