while reading I realized what type of "rape" turns me off. First, there's the more psychological, twisted, dark mangas, that depict rape and all its complications. Then, there's stuff like this, where the rape is unnecessary and takes away/contrasts with the whole "wholesome" tone and art style of the manga. This is more romanticizing rape.

The parents are sooooo annoying. Like, stop being so carefree if your child is suffering everyday to make ends meet, and can barely afford suppressants (which is why he got raped!!!). And I hate how accepting they were to everything? Like, they didn't even care to know more about the seme and how the uke felt (he clearly showed how uncomfortable he was at first), not to mention they're literally getting friendly with their child's rapist. And I can't believe that everyone was so happy about the supposed pregnancy. Does the author know how a teenage pregnancy can ruin a mother's life?

The seme is a bit bleh. He sorta dismisses a lot of the uke's feelings at first? Like, pairing with the uke with no consent. He's very pushy too. But whatever.

I usually like omegaverses, but idk this one pushed my buttons. Nice art tho

    Totally agree. I wish omegaverse authors or yaoi authors in general would stop light heartedly putting rape scenes into their work. I mean if the scene is important for the character development or if the scene will be discussed later on or someghing than go do it. But just as it is, just to start a "romance" is kind of unsetteling. I generelly support authors freedom to draw whatever they like, but sometimes the audience might be tirggered or else so yeah, well thx for putting your thought.

    true, I usually don't mind rape but sometimes it just doesn't make any sense as a plot point and seems a bit illogical/insensitive to put smth heavy like that in here. Lol, I sounded sort of annoyingly ranty-complainy-like, glad to see you agree :)

    I completely agree! If the parents cant afford suppressants for their kid what makes them think that they can afford yet another kid! And also why does the eldest have to take care of their wrong doings!?
    He didnt ask for that, but do they care ? ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!

    Also, i'm fine with rape in yaoi, however this one's rape made me mad and sympathetic to the mc. When reading Yahwacheop (Painter of the Night) i was fine with the rape in it, it was not like this!

    The supposed pregnancy thing made me mad too. What i'm imagining the parents are thinking in that moment is "yayyyy we get a grandbaby" however what would be better is if they thought "oh no, how are we going to afford two children when we're already super poor!" Thest parents are obviously narcissistic!
