can we talk about super lovers
It's gonna be long, sorry for this.
So like, I was thinking - at 5 am, like any normal and sane person about the animes I've dropped through the years.. and this shit came up in my mind. I remember dropping it after a few episodes, because it made me feel very uncomfortable. Now, it's been years since then and I thought people actually noticed how horrible this story is, but checking the manga's rating on this site and the comments only made me sick.
Full of people trying to justify Haru's behavior with the stupidest reasons..
Haru is about 26, right? Ren is 15-16? How can someone see that okay?
Like.. it's really scary how closely Haru resembles a pedophile predator. Every single move he makes on Ren is manipulative, creepy and very inappropriate.
And Ren has no idea he's more or less being groomed by his legal guardian
(I think?), and the brothers serving as side-characters in this story do nothing to stop it; they don't even see something wrong with it. Honestly, I can't understand what they're even doing there; with or without them the story would have been the same - but anyways. How can people call this consentual when - again, Ren is a minor? I know there's many creeps on this site, but c'mon guys; 9.5 rating? Are you fricking kidding me?
..I've rarely seen people talk about this one and how problematic it is. Maybe I'm just exaggerating, my vocabulary is also kinda limited and my English kinda sucks, so sorry if I couldn't make myself clear at some points..
Your right. However, aside from the Haru/Ren issue, everything else is funny. I'm not defending it, the relationship is a big no-no, but I can understand the appeal as the series has great comedic timing.
The story without the Haru/Ren thing is actually good, but the whole 'brocon' ruins it.
