Can we talk about how amazing this manga is. It’s so insightful and shows healthy ways to respond to people with trauma. Like this isn’t a romance for the sake of having a romance, there’s connected chemistry, trust being built. You get to see the characters develop relationships with eachother, which I think makes them more valuable. Nothing is being too rushed, and it doesn’t feel like the stories being stalled either. It’s working at a very realistic pace, with realistic challenges and that’s why I think this is such an amazing story.
Personally I’m happy about this ending, if you have basic understanding of trauma you’d know he literally couldn’t handle BDSM and it was only hurting him. The girl who was the owner was irresponsible, uneducated and ended up traumatising him more. I’m glad they didn’t get back together with their BDSM relationship. What he needed was therapy, emotional support and a vanilla relationship.
The other girl who’s the friend either blonde hair is the absolute worst
