are we reading the same thing?? Ryousuke is literally entirely at fault here, no matter how I look at it. He's total scum and the butler is fully a victim! There's a few points ppl have brought up that I wanted to share my perspective on:
1- some are blaming the butler for forcing ryousuke to have sex with strangers when he was 13:
● do ya'll realize that Seno himself was even younger, with no power or say in what was happening?? he was following the orders of ryousuke's father. There's nothing he could have done or said that would change the outcome. He was probably around 11 or 12 y/o at most, and did what he was trained to do as a butler which is to follow orders.
2- blaming him for not being honest about his feelings etc.
● if we're talking about honesty, the blame should apply to Ryousuke even more. Why couldn't he be honest from the start, instead of choosing a roundabout way of r@ping him for years and manipulating him to "make him realize his feelings"??? that is a fucking evil and cruel thing to do if you ask me. Seno was in no position to have feelings for his master or be honest about anything. Don't forget that he has been influenced, brainwashed, trained and verbally abused by his own father to become a "perfect butler". His job doesn't allow him to have "feelings", and on top of that he's a beta! from where he's standing, there is quite literally no hope or possibility.
3- him sleeping with other men, etc.
● do ya'll not realize that the reason why he even started doing this to begin with is BECAUSE RYOUSUKE HAS BEEN R@PING HIM IN HIS SLEEP?? and "trained his body to enjoy sex"?? he would fuck people in front of him just to get a reaction out of him! absolute fcking sick scum! Seno even said himself that he randomly started having these sexual urges that he didn't know how or where they came from, especially because he's a beta. That fucker literally broke his body and mind! r@ping him, so that he'll eventually come to you for sex??!? make that make sense. also, as far as I'm concerned Seno is single and grown so I don't see any issue with him sleeping around anyways.. but the fact that he's so mentally broken that his body craves it but he hates himself for doing it and carries all this guilt.. it's all Ryousuke's fault. while he himself goes around fcking people and living his life guilt-free doesn't even feel bad nor did he apologize for everything he's done - literally toying with him in the name of "love". yeah miss me with that horseshit!
I'm aware that this is fiction, and unfortunately it's unlikely that Ryousuke will face any real consequences, but he deserves to rot in the pits of hell imo. No amount of suffering karma or punishment is enough to make up for what he's done. The only thing Seno had done wrong is to love this piece of shit!
