I think it was the mangaka's intention to make this twisted. I mean, she clearly wanted the uke to be manipulated because it's pretty clear the seme was controlling him emotionally. The uke is not very bright.

The story of chapter 5 is just... bad... I mean the uke doesnt even really realize that he was raped. What does he mean "was that cheating"? No of course not! You didnt want it! Its just so frustrating.
And not only that but the seme didnt do it impulsively he planed it. And then tried to act like it was also the ukes fault. That's just fucked up.
I mean there are many yaoi that have rape in them. And normally I can overlook it (of course it would be different in real life) but this story was not nice delivered. It just feels so plump. The uke doesnt really fight, well, he's confused and tries to run away. But he never really thinks about what happened. I dont know i mean i have never experienced sth like that. But shouldnt one be more scared of the person or angry? How can he just accept that? I mean he exploited their friendship, his trust. I dont know. I just find the idea of one of my best friends doing that, then trying to sweep it under the rug and then me just accepting them with only benevolent emotions as utterly disturbing.
Im sorry for the rant. But somehow this story just rubbed me the wrong way..
but really, please, if something like that ever happends talk with someone
