before reading, know that the only appeal of this series for me was wondering how the ending will go so if you want to keep reading this series, it's better not to read any spoilers.
i'm saying this as a warning for anyone reading in hopes things get better: it lives up to its title of this being THE bad life. don't read it if you're hoping things get good.
raymond gets gangraped multiple times by people in school and even out of school even years later. at one point, they even tried to get him to fuck jerome's horse. if you can't stand seeing abuse after abuse, skip this story.
and yes, jerome and raymond does end up together. personally, i think it's bullshit. they show jerome's backstory and how he gets abused and assaulted but that doesn't change anything for me. he's still a piece of shit and literally said they did all that to raymond cause he was unlucky ????
i love how strong raymond is as a character which is why i'll still read this (at least until the timeskip cause personally that's where things SHOULD have ended)
