I re-read starting from ch.50-124. The freeloader works at Naruse’s company as a newbie and he also goes to the same university as Kouya. At least he did in ch.50. Either way, he sucks and needs to get his personality upgraded.
I also noticed in my re-read through that there is a lot of joking around about Kouya being so into kids that he could be doing the unthinkable with a child and I find it HIGHLY disturbing that his friends would think that was a laughing matter. We know that Kouya is NOT like that, thank god, but I wish the author would chill out with that disturbing topic.
Dark Celestial Empire is giving otome vibes and I know this is related to the uke’s power but it's too much kumbaya for me. Euncheong and some of the other knights have this ‘stalker, waiting in the wings’ thing going while they try to pretend they aren't jealous of how strong the seme is because of the uke’s love for him. So I am anxiously waiting to see who caves first and gives in to their desire for the uke.
One thing I am a miffed about is the flashbacks between the uke & seme. The author keeps alluding to a past conflict/misunderstanding between them yet they never fully show everything that happened from the beginning. If they showed it once and then delved deeper into the matter after it wouldn't be an issue but they keep showing the same thing and the grand duke constantly brings it up yet they never hash out the problem or bring a solution. At this point, I would rather they start this story over from the time the uke first played the game and show us the events that happened in real-time.
Imagine this was an omegaverse. The way Motochika is obsessed with Natsuki’s neck is…..(≧∀≦)
