But things start to escalate when Shibusawa makes the mental connection that if Kouta's food is delicous, Kouta himself must be even more so. I think the smut in this story honestly interfered with the flow, so I didn't love a lot of it, but I did enjoy that they had a fat main character who was loved by friends and family and didn't have to lose weight by the end. ️Trigger warnings: noncon, fat shaming, body image issues.

After that, Shiina battles between vindictive feelings and attraction he feels toward Hayase, while Hayase can't help but want to show Shiina a better relationship. Shiina's a bit of a jerk, but I feel like he's struggling and confused, so it's realistic in this setting. Overall, interesting and well-written characters. Trigger warnings: cheating, noncon, rape, bondage, choking.

Ryohei goes through with it out of curiosity, but he likes it enough to suggest they meet again. And again. But as Ryohei gets more involved with this relationship, Yuuma has a hard time believing what feels too good to be true. I like the emotional growth, though the translation can be a bit off at time.
