I thought i was tweaking when NO ONE ever mentioned how much the ml’s violated mc by stalking, s/a-ing him, victim blaming?? Suggestive content of the mc who’s a minor?? Not to mention how badly portrayed his character’s attitude was towards getting s/a’d while blackout drunk, “damn! i forgot about last night!”…dude…
EXACTLYY IM SO GLAD ITS NOT JUST ME
PREACHHH
making him confused after repeatedly harassing and s/aing him doesn’t making him secretly gay, it makes him traumatized. (even if he does end up being in denial, its evil to force him and strip away his ability to explore on his own terms).
i’m still pissed off that this was being marketed as some cute shounen ai and in reality has these poorly treated dark themes that should make it fall under psychological horror. the ‘s/a into questioning and forgiving abusers bc they liked it all along’ pipeline is an outdated ass trope that should die already, it reeks.
if you enjoy these themes i hope even you can agree that they should be labeled appropriately and separated from the bl genre instead of treating it as one in the same, so ppl who don’t like it can avoid it
