Can you please give me the working link cuz LEZHIN (hope I named it right) doesn't work for me

Sorry, I bought them on Lezhin. So I don't have a link. Try going through the comments here, might have something, not sure.

I don't think it is that way.
Considering this is Harada, the "happy ending" even for the main couple, is cracked once you look at it (i.e. Yui now becoming the user, instigator and aggressor, and Niichan completely broken from his family's insistence to cure him and his guilt and his own psycho-pshyio-logical urge) and the son is a boy.

Even Maiko-chan is messed up herself.

Even the bystanders are messed up themselves.

Considering all that All the happy veneer might hide a dark reality.

You see the abuser looking like he's now living a normal life, with a wife and a little boy. They look happy, but it's only small snippet in the short time that Kei showed up at the house.

Has the abuser been successfully "rehabilitated" (like what they're trying to do with Kei) or is the abuser just more adept at hiding himself.

The boy you see looks happy. Maybe he's not abused, maybe he's never going to be abused.
Or....he might not be abused yet, but he might be soon.

Nothing is roses and champagne in this story, so look for the shadows lurking beneath.

Once you see it, it becomes sinister.

Additionally, you can probably see it as "Kei seeing his Abuser".

Does seeing his abuser look like he's leading a normal life motivates Kei to go back to his house and try again with the prostitute to normalize/heal himself? "If my abuser can become normal, I can be too maybe."

But Kei failed to become "rehabilitated", in fact cut ties with his own family.
We can see this as a reverse mirror. Now we know that his abuser is not rehabilitated but actually become better at acting, but he has actually cut ties with is first family (Maiko etc).

So now, we know Maiko's ojisan is not really rehabilitated, and he's only playing house with a woman and a little boy.

Don't you feel dread for the boy?

I did. I felt a chill running down my spine even when I first saw the boy running out of the house looking "happy".

You think ahead too much. I don't wanna think that Ojisan would do the same thing to his family. Aside from going ahead from the story, based from how he looked like in the last chapter, he seemed like Ojisan's head's empty. It's also the first time his face was shown, and there was no hint of anything sinister. Yes, I must agree your theory epilogue maybe right but I don't know somehow I feel if there was anything more, sensei would've given a hint, but I didn't feel it. Also, I think Kei didn't leave because he saw Ojisan's kid coming out of the house, he left when Ojisan didn't recognize him. And because there was no point in trying to be normal since Ojisan doesn't even recognize him, he has obviously moved on, there is no point in trying to be normal.

Also, assessing Ojisan from the flashback, he wanted to stop his relationship with Kei when Maiko was born. So I think he's also whacked in the head and another character trying to do what's normal, conforming to society's norms. I don't think he would do it to his own child, even though he's a boy, plus his freaking old.

On Yui and Maiko. Yes, they turned out to be sick characters but I still love them. The kind of characters that you gotta love even if they are so twisted.
Yes, Yui turned to be an aggressor. Because he doesn't want to be thrown away. Also, he sounded threatening when he said that there's no one who'll understand Kei better than he does. But that's Harada and I'm okay with it as long as it's only for Kei. He doesn't do it to other people. Kei needed someone like Yui who will not give up on him and force him to accept himself.

Maiko, another twisted turn for a character but the fact that she still stays with Yui after all that, and even stopping the next table from taking pictures, is just adorable. Her character is actually very rare. She hates Kei but at the same time, probably felt pity for him. Because she's the bigger person to accept Yui and Kei's situation.

Messed up bystanders. Gotta love Harada for never shying away from the reality. Gay culture is still unaccepted and some people are just that rude.

I think I should have known this already lmao. BUT I do want to know more of what he thinks. Because fuck.

I will agree with this assessment.

can you tell me please what happens next?! is it somehing bad? ╥﹏╥

YA! I want to know what they say too, I want to know what the hell it is they are thinking. I can make assumptions, but it doesn't beat the actual dialogue. Because then I can judge it even harder. lmao
