Yes, Nozomi even said it himself that Tatsuyuki should'vee hated him for doing that ro Tatsu when he was drunk! He knew his own mistakes yeS!
Coercion is still rape. There’s a reason people in power are not allowed to sleep with the people under them. If you didn’t enter the agreement as a willing, equal, participant, we are talking about rape.
But yes, we will not overlook that Nozomi, despite my vast love for him, definitely raped Tatsuyuki. Tats was under the impression he was someone else and was super drunk.
Consent is almost completely nonexistent in BL. Unfortunately.
It's clear as daylight that Rogi raped Tatsuyuki. Forced him into a corner and tried to wreck as badly as he could. Felt bad for him throughout the whole story.
I didnt especially like Rogi. His character design didnt appeal much to me. However, he did NOT rape Tatsuyuki. He did compel a decision for Tatsuyuki decide either Nozomi or himself to "pay" that 20 mil via sex but it wasnt rape as Tatsuyuki did know what was going to happen and consented to it, as as a Yakuza Fourth, if he wanted to Tatsuyuki CUDV found some other way to pay Rogi or make him shut up. Its not that he WANTED to have sex with Rogi but kinda just gave in to his demands.
The one who DID RAPE Tatsukuyi was actually Nozomi guys, because the first time he found Tatsuyuki, he was drunk and fairly unconscious and didnt even realize it was Nozomi having sex with him, there was NO permission whatsover. Not that I hate Nozomi, I think he is really beautiful, but it was really bothering me that the rapist pointed out in most comments here is the wrong guy.
Having said all that I love this manga, I love the chemistry between Tatsuyuki and Nozomi, I appreciate how the story and backstory was fleshed out, and def a manga I shall re-read many many times.
