I honestly didn't read the entire thing, I was 5 chapters in and got annoyed by the uke's character so I decided to skip to the end and the side stories to see if there's some kind of development-- and lo and behold, there was none lmao. I also can't with these folks commenting it as realistic-- just because a character/relationship in fiction is nuanced and non-idealistic, it doesn't automatically make it complex and realistic, it's just bleak, that's it. Fr I think they're just projecting their own toxic traits to these characters and think just because it affirms their way of thinking, then it must be realistic lol. The art style is fantastic tho (it made me do a double take on the rating because I really thought an artstyle this pretty would at least get 9.0 minimum, but now I know why). The prompt, as well as character dynamic could also definitely work, it's the way that it was executed here that wasted those potential. I'm all for assertive ukes, even the nagging ones can be cute, but this one is just downright toxic and presumptious, defo needs some more growth and maturity before being in a relationship if we're really talking about it being realistic.
