This was a brilliant! I loved it, what a fantastic story. I couldn't put it down. It was very real and i loved seeing these two find their way back to each other.

The way sensei depicted Kei's inner world was masterful. His inner child and the robot devoid of emotion that protects him from all the horrific pain he's had to survive. The wall of disassociation was just do beautifully depicted as Kei slowly transformed from Yutaka's love and care. And what a fucking turn, that was raw and horrible but riveting drama. Im so glad they got their happy end. Their beginning i find confusing, why would the blackmail be coerced sex? What was Kei getting from that? I dont really understand it. Like if he made a video of it and everything to threaten his exposure. As it was the force was really confusing. And just seemed like the irritating tropes that run across bl. But beyond that seeing the love was beautiful once that story started. I feel like the sexual blackmail soured the purity of what their love became.
