so I've always wondered this but... you know the trope of adopting a child when he becomes an orphan and over the years the child ends up falling in love with the guardian, then the end-game turns into them finally being in a relationship?
imagine if you were that guardian... realistically speaking, would you fall in love with an adopted child whom you've raised until adulthood? trick question, the answer is no. LOL so why is this such a trope then?? there must be some innate abstract reasoning being as to why the audience would like it. personally, i find that trope idea highly disturbing but that's just from me and my innate motherly instincts (although i've never given birth lma0).
thoughts??
a lot of tropes, esp yaoi ones, are disturbing to many so it's not that surprising. I guess some fujos like an older, more mature uke? and a seme who was initially cute and stuff becoming possessive? idrk lol. It's just a... different type of dynamic in the relationship that is not commonly seen and some might find it fascinating.
If you're asking if I'd fall for a child I raised then absolutely not. But I think in these kinds of mangas the way the relationship is shown is what makes the difference, there are a lot of mangas where the top rapes or kills but people still read that because of how the author presents it to the audience. That's what I think ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
Wow I thought this was gonna be one of those
"rich kidnapper with twisted tastes and a hopeless bastard who had it coming" kind of story but this is SO much better. Glad I binged this, hope I remember the plot when I come back after I let this marinate for a bit. :3
