concave's manga / #esper x guide(2)

ok! many thoughts. first, i love love love the mc! he feels so real with the way he speaks, acts, thinks, like yes i can totally understand and see why he does the shit he does, and he jokes and laughs like a real fucking human, like a real guy (not some bl version of an uke) . ml can be endearing w how much he likes mc (and the whole inner personality thing), usually u see this type of romantic thinking more from the uke so i appreciated this! however. the circumstances behind their meeting and working together r still so fucked up to me. their initial sexual encounters still fucked up. I hate how mc's boundaries were pushed and broken, when no one else truly understood the implications of what they were doing to him. however, i will admit that yeah when u get past that part, the relationship development and scenes are super cute and well done! i just hate the the whole first half of this is based on mc being ncapacitated and unable to consent (and its not that non/dubcon aren't good, but in this particular story it rlly leaves a bad taste in my mouth and for that idk if ill ever be able to give it more than a 4 :((()

feeling emptions!!! deeply attached to both characters and vv much interested in seeing what happens!! the plot and pressing issue r presented in such a perf way to get me invested, and i love seeing this gap moe (esque) seme trope!! ys ys ik it gets into emotional manipulation and there r def sour moments, but bro's just so aggresively pookie shaped that it works out in my head? fuck i need season 2 NOWWWW
