When did rape become cute?

This story would have captivated me MUCH more if the mangaka hadn't gone with the typical "rape= love" theme that so many yaoi manga suffer from. If someone was blackmailing me to keep their silence by forcing me to suck their dick and then allowing them to fondle and then RAPE me, I highly doubt I would fall for them over time.

Can anyone else on this website really say they want someone else to rape them like that? Keep in mind I'm not talking about a 'rape role play/fantasy' with their lover. I'm talking about straight up violation of your body without your consent. Would you fall in love with your rapist?

Also keep in mind that I'm aware that both of the men in this story had twisted/complicated feelings towards one another all along. But no matter what the situation is the seme still had NO right to force himself on the uke. If he wanted his attention then why not just SAY SOMETHING?? Raping your crush doesn't exactly scream 'I love you'

    I totally agree! I'm so tired of this kind of manga, where the seme rapes the uke because they "love" them, and even though the uke hates it he ends up falling in love with his rapist. Ugh! That's not love, it's just sick and twisted...

    Yeah I totally agree with you! Thank goodness I've read the comments before reading this manga.
    Whoever said that rape is THE way to express your feelings?!?! ヽ(`Д`)ノ

    You're the only one who said the true, I totally agree with you. I can't stand yaoi with rape-love, if you want to express your feelings you don't have to use rape....and when the uke "fell in love" this isn't love but Stoccolma'syndrome syndrome (╬ ̄皿 ̄)凸

    I think you have missunderstood slightly. The uke was already in love with the seme way before the rape. The intrest was definitly there already before the blackmailing. So this is far from your typisk rape=love story and more rape doesnt nessecary means the love dies. Whitch is actually really realistic. This manga is diffrent than most I've read, it is very, very deep and pshycological. Amazing.

    I haven't misunderstood anything. I stated that the characters had complicated feelings all along. I was making a point: rape and manipulation aren't okay under any circumstances. Even if you love someone they can still technically rape you if you're saying no. Rape is rape. I wasn't confused by the situation at all. I fully understand.

    And for the record, I'm not irritated by your comment or anything. I just want to get my point across without anyone assuming I'm some kind of small minded yuppie. I'm more than open to discuss matters rationally.

    Ah, right. I interpreted your comment as if you meant the the love was a result of the rape. Sorry then, for the misunderstanding on my part.

    Of course sexual assault of any kind is completely despicable, and wether a victim has feelings of love for the perpetrator or not has nothing to do with the act. Is that even being questioned by anyone this day and age? But technically? That sounds so wrong to me, rape is rape and it doesn't get any better or less brutal or damaging by being preformed by your loved one, actually it most likely makes it way worse for most ppl. But then again, one has to separate reality from fiction. I can enjoy some rape-play in mangas, actually I love it. Usually not this more brutal kind, but the story is so good.

    Since English isn't my first language I'm not quite clear on what you mean with the end of your comment. What does yuppie mean?

    A yuppie is basically rich, educated person who looks down on everyone no matter what.

    I'm a former member of various human rights orga for more than 15 years. we know almost all countries problems. sorry to tell you this. this is not about any fantasy. Japan's eternal problem from ancients times: sexual crimes. even the government doesn't take seriously sexual crimes. manga/animes fans are the most ignorants about Japan's dark problems. unlike most countries. japanse society give a green light for it. japan is a fave tourists place of pedos and sexual perverts. these mangakas are showing ones of japan eternal problems. sad but true... this is not a yaoi thing but a problem in all genres.

    Lost causes. Japanese have already dismissed them.
