YES THIS!! i wasn’t very satisfied with the ending because it felt really off
This is the smartest comment I ve ever found on this site and I say FINALLY
I totally agree with you and I found disappoint when the blond hit the black haired guy again just bc he refused to have sex but as you said it was not the first time and if you at least seack for help with a therapist you will hit again but after all that good talking the girl make them go back togheter bc “ I saw their spark “ bullshit . I can’t understand why these bl authors can’t treat abuse and violence about men for what it is but romantize it
appart from the fact that the black haired guy stayed with his abusive boyfriend after he hit him once and bullied him during his teen years (remember that if you’re partner hit you once they’re most likely doing it again, save yourself and leave them), I found the girl very interesting, I was really worried that it was going to be weird and she was going to be poorly written but I was pleasantly surprised ; she’s, in my opinion, the best character of all the manga, from making the black haired guy realize that no, hitting someone isn’t okay and that it’s not his fault to calling out people’s habit to downplay men’s bad actions to a simple « men will be men » which excuse their bad behavior, it was refreshing seeing a female character who’s not only a stepping stone for the two guys relationship to evolve. I would say, however, that I did not like the ending : all this talk about domestic violence/abuse being not normal and the author still end up romanticizing the violent relationship depicted… No, violent men aren’t some misunderstood mysterious creatures, they’re grown enough to seek therapy and understand that violence is bad and I wish the author would have depicted an ending where the guy and the girl stay friend and move on from their relationship with the blond guy.
