Pedophilia?...PEDOPHILIA? I don't understand where you guys get this chronically online TikTok mindset from but this is exhausting. This is by far and I mean by FAR pedophilia. This is a fictional story between two characters that look like they're in the same age gap. Masahiro does not nor does he even remotely resemble a teenager. The man looks 18+ (None the less a fictional 18+ year old because as I said in real life it would be incredibly problematic and disgusting) That's why it's fantasy. If Masahiro did in fact look way younger than what he looks like right now, I would agree and wouldn't have even posted my comment. This is just a manga about a student/teacher relationship set up to where it's obviously a fantasy. If it wanted to take itself seriously and actually talk about a student/teacher relationship where it clearly depicts it as a horrible relationship then that itself is also incredibly different.
I’m probably going to be mass disliked to oblivion but oh my god. I literally just went and scrolled and read through majority of the comments from this past year and my brain is frying. When did it become so common to have such braindead opinions about fiction. I love this manga. As fiction. In reality? Absolutely not. I don’t get why it’s so hard to process about reading fictional fantasy stories and having such a gripe on it, you need to call everyone reading it, people who are “normalizing things that shouldn't be normalized and they’re sick in the head for reading/enjoying this.” for reading two fictional characters in a yaoi manga who deadass look the same age. Mf tell me who’s out there normalizing a student teacher relationship in real life? Shits disgusting. It’s not even remotely comparable to something in fiction because it’s fiction.
