I'm glad I'm not the only one disappointed in the seme. He's far too cocky and forceful! This could have been a MUCH better, balanced story if he wasn't forcing the poor guy into sex before he's anywhere near ready for it. There's no redemption for that guy in my opinion, regardless of how the story ends. No amount of sugar coating his bullshit will make it better.
I feel so empty after reading this. I've seen people bashing the boyfriend and the little brother equally, but honestly? There wasn't REALLY a villain in this story. Everyone had their faults. But to be fair the little brother never actually made a move on the MC. He respected the relationship (and his brother) enough to NOT sexually assault him as we've seen countless times in yaoi manga. The boyfriend gave me bad/creepy vibes with his possessiveness, but it's not like he was chaining the MC to the bed and refusing to let him leave his side. In the end, the MC made his choice. There was never a romantic relationship with his little brother (even if a lot of us were fond of the little brother!). Clearly there were TONS of unsolved issues by the end of the manga, which is why I feel so empty! It needed better closure for me personally, but I will respect the authors choices. It was their story to tell!
That chef must have seen some shit in his day. He gives no fucks about the fishy blowjob taking place two feet away from him.
Also, I agree with the consensus on here. This manga HAS to be a really stupid joke/parody, mocking the kidnapping genre. I'd be genuinely concerned if someone was writing and drawing this with serious intent. It's a level of bad that I didn't even know could exist! I thought disproportionate yaoi hands and rape were the worst things I'd have to endure (⊙…⊙ )
At this point I wouldn't be surprised if the author decides to kill Rui off during childbirth, leaving the door wide open for Natsuo and Hina to raise the baby together without Rui being in the way. The bullshit is real with this one!
