Don’t hate on Fumi. Fumi is precious, a cinnamon roll, and must be protected. Danzo doesn’t deserve him.

I’d like to think that it was unrequited on Danzo’s part. And the only time he had an intimate moment with Fumi was when Fumi went to him to ask for the mark.

I think he dug his own grave by being an asshole. Following Ichi’s logic, he prolly was in love with Fumi since before he joined the hut that’s why he could tell them apart. Danzo also said that Fumi always cared for Ichi, and in chapter 3 he said something about a man’s jealousy being ugly. I always wondered what that meant. Could it be because he was jealous of Ichii? I could interpret It in the Chap 6 when he described how attached the twins are to each other. He also said that he was the only one who’s heart was disturbed, validating my earlier statement that it might have been unrequited.

It’s nice to know that at least Fumi’s body wasn’t thrown and was taken good care of and had a proper burial. I can only imagine Danzo taking care of him and being gentle and soft at least once in his life. But of course it’s too late for that because Fumi prolly didn’t wake up after the blow he took from Ichi. Danzo is prolly full of regrets but that didn’t even stop him from being an asshole so he deserves all the pain and suffering he will continue to experience from here on out.

I would like to see Fumi and Danzo’s interaction tho. I hope there can be a spin off so that we can get to know more about Fumi. I actually liked Fumi even tho he doesn’t have many scenes. I can even go as far as saying I liked his character compared to Ichi’s.

Even though some parts in this manga is confusing, the characters were really engaging, even the side characters.

    I dont know how to feel about Fumi, if he truly loved Ichi's rapist. Because he did pay witness to Ichi's abuse and pain.

    I don’t think he loved Danzo. And I stand by this statement unless the raws themselves will prove otherwise. I can’t stomach Fumi loving Danzo tbh. Danzo doesn’t deserve Fumi. Plus I don’t think Fumi would love anyone as much as he loved Ichi. And this is also a reason why I’m afraid of the revelation in vol 2. But it seems to me that (based on the caps I saw on sensei’s twitter) they were never intimate. They had interactions like Danzo teaching young Fumi how to write and stuff like that and prolly moments that resulted to Danzo falling in love Fumi (he seems to be the sociable one compared to Ichii so he had more civil interactions with Danzo but he prolly just did this because he wanted to protect Ichii on his own way, like trying to be sociable with Danzo)

    I hope so too. Those poor children...
    I don't doubt Fumi not being intimate with Danzo until that one time, but I really don't want the author to show Danzo in a better light through Fumi. Cuz, the physical and psychological trauma he imposed on both Ichi and Fumi is unforgivable.
