Scallop's manga / #Age Gap(6)

I honestly would’ve like this a whole lot more if they didn’t have such a big age gap. The story and dynamic is actually really sweet and interesting but the fact that a 17 year old is going to end up with somebody more than 10 years older than him sets me off. I’m glad Minato rejects Shins advances but there is no doubt they eventually end up together which is honestly so creepy. It’s normal for teens to have crushes on adults and Minato is clearly rejecting Shin but because of how persistent Shin is, Minato the GROWN ADULT should be doing more than mildly saying no. Minato needs to state a boundary if he genuinely does not want to be romantically involved with Shin, but thats clearly not gonna happen since Minato is genuinely romantically interested which again IS WEIRD ASF. Not to mention how this grown man started talking to Shin about his sex drives and preferences(im not referring to him coming out that was fine) that is quite literally a grooming tactic. This could have been so good if the author just didn’t make it borderline pedo shit.
