That last bit was a literal gut punch. The pain from being dumped out of nowhere, the last ditch "I don't know if this will change your mind, but I need you to know how deeply I felt" giving him the rings like that... That hurt me physically. Been in a similar place. Damn, sensei, you didn't have to do me dirty like this...OW.

Is this all just a story? Yes. Are people still allowed to feel uncomfortable seeing someone make advances on some who's asleep? Yes. Are people allowed to *enjoy* seeing it because they know the story is fictional? Yes.
Are you ever allowed to do that shit IRL? No.
Let's all just let people feel how they feel about that scene and stop trying to change minds.
Unless you think it's okay to do to your partner IRL. Then you need to rethink things.

I'm not judging anything consensual, if it's been communicated it's fine. Literally the scene was unprompted advances on someone who was sleeping. That's not communication. If you do things without consent IRL, it's wrong, plain and simple. Consent is necessary. But this is a fictional story. My whole point was about how we should stop arguing cuz both sides are valid and you've just wildly misconstrued my point. Congrats.

It seems like this series wants to make itself difficult to follow. Between the different plotlines happening at once, all stretched out thinly, and the myriad of new/ reintroduced old characters - it's nearly impossible to remember it all. Plus, Moko started helpful, then it flipped. If we keep stressing out this kiss plotline/the one with the other girl (I already forget her name) - I'm gonna lose it. I'm seriously gonna go feral.
This series is at its best when Kyoko and Ren are able to bolster each other as people, and as actors. When I saw Kuu brought up, I got hopeful, cuz that was honestly the best arc so far. The Heel Siblings, too. Both instances showing great development of them as individuals, and as a couple.
UNLIKE THIS CURRENT STUFF, WHICH IS JUST CHEAP MISUNDERSTANDINGS AND SHOEHORNED PLOT DEVICES FOR A PLOT THAT'S GOING AT A SNAIL'S PACE.
