When I read this as it was being released I was near my 20s and I already got so annoyed at Shishio for not standing for his own choices and regretting them and making her suffer continuously... I was SO GLAD she got with Mamura, it was the first shoujo I read where FL chooses second ML at the end!! I wasn't even minding the age gap as much per se, but the fact the Shishio was a freaking adult and was not keeping up with his own choices >:(
Now I do mind the age gap per se as well... Plus I see why he's an adult but still immature... 25-26yo you are just starting to get your shit together as an adult and it takes years
No wait I thought he'd meant a friend that he saw as an older brother you know like how sometimes they refer to non-family members aniki, aneki, ojii-san :') I may be too used to the noona/hyung, unnie/oppa dynamic in k-dramas and manwhas
I didn't pay attention, so the paternity test proved that old man's and black haired guys father-son relationship right? At first I thought it was the guy in prison trying to claim to be the father of the baby.
I won't forget Redhead had been sexually assaulting MC and being a dick (and also basically did revenge sex with MC's friend back in the day as well) so I insist author is not gonna get me to like him, pity him... No endgame, no threesome, I want him OUTTT
