I wasn't expecting some grand plot from this. Most guideverse stories are super predictable...same goes for most isekai....most anything really. But the second these stories use the amnesia bullshit plot device, it just signals to me "author wanted to make another season and didn't have any good ideas about how to do that other than restarting the relationship" because that's what memory loss is, in these stories: it's a way to take a couple that might have barely started communicating well and shitting all over whatever progress they made
I read the machine translated scans years ago and I'm going to spoil the ending here, don't read it and then bitch about spoilers:

In the end, Rowe goes back to living with his sister but keep missing Adrian because the poor dude was too damaged at that point from the drugs and the brainwashing of Adrian. Then receives a letter one day. That prompts him to travel and would you look at that.....he meets Adrian at some remote place. His sister goes to the police and keeps looking for him as a missing person but he is with Adrian at some remote place and the last scene shows Adrian looking at the news of his company and drugs and then he walks to Rowe who is sat at a bench in the garden and that's it. The end!
I don't think that there has been a single time that I liked the memory loss plot device...everything else, even some toxic tropes, I might like under certain circumstances but never amnesia. The closes I got to not abhoring it was when a few stories used it on ukes who ran away from abusive or just asshole semes and it helped me enjoy seme's suffering to some degree but still, I would rather it is never used again
I'm getting more and more annoyed with these asshole MLs who act like pieces of shit from the first time they meet MC. It's such a garbage trope and it's annoying because it's basically the age old "cold CEO guy mistreats the poor female MC and treats her like ""the others" and then realises she is "special" " in a different font and it makes me cringe so bad
Sometimes in these stories I blame the uke for disappearing and not trying to clear up anything but this is do valid because:
- ML used uke and even told him so multiple times in the beginning
- ML was caught red handed with the long haired guide who is now MC's "friend" in compromising positions
- ML didn't tell MC about his previous guide and let everyone misunderstand
- ML got another guide and didn't explain shit to MC
- Overall, ML played with MC's feelings and kept him in the dark. There is no fault on MC's side. ML caused every misunderstanding and MC stayed for too long

dumb fucking rapist is feeling jealous because of hypothetical guys that might or might not have had sex with MC? how fucking dare he act like a jealous boyfriend when he raped MC and even got him gang raped by a bunch of mental depraved other doctors in earlier chapters....the balls on him to act like a random guy whose boyfriend cheated on him when he is filth
I wonder why, we as human beings, enjoy the "player falls in love for the first time and by the time he realises his own feelings, he deeply regrets how awful he was when he first approached the person he fell for" trope....Is it like those cathartic things where you want to see bad things happen to arrogant people and seeing him suffer is his comeuppance?
Consider me your older sis giving you a piece of advice: drop this and don't look back. It gets much worse in season2, MC gets raped by everyone, has a collar like a chained animal, gets whipped until he bleeds, and it's getting worse. Don't think the "ML saves the day" which in season 1 will happen again. Despite ML being a monstrous rapist, the red head guy and his goons in season 2 are on another level of depravity....

I guess I'm becoming more jaded as I get older because this type of story annoys me now and I can't even justify reading it by "waiting for the comeuppance"....it's just frustrating so I drop it before any of that happens
