It’s been almost 10 YEARS since I came back to read this once again, and I have gained new appreciation for this story. It’s not as simple as another “incest trope”. Back then I blamed the son for starting their unfortunate relationship, but now I understand that they were fated to be stuck in an endless time loop. Their relationship was unavoidable, bc if Ryou has never fallen in love with his own father then he wouldn’t have been born in the first place, since Konomi was initially drawn to the mother since she has the same eyes as Ryou. Their fate is a cruel twist, but they achieve happiness nonetheless, even if they will never receive recognition or blessings. In a way they truly belong together and were literally only made for each other.
