Maybe, but even BJ was toxic. Also this series started out with a way stronger power imbalance dynamic than BJ. It's gunna get way worse before it gets better, and you'd think by this point of the story, people would know what to expect. This shit is painter of the night level. The chocolate chip sliver of niceness before the whip. You ain't getting a whole cookie, you just getting a single chocolate chip every once and a while.
It's fun reading the comments. Like, guys, what did you expect? This series never came across as a cute, sweet, wholesome series. We all came in expecting toxicity, and my goodness were my expectations exceeded. You can't get butthurt because the toxic series you were reading ended up being... toxic XD
