Basically just your average yaoi... ╮(￣▽￣)╭
I was about to say this too. The moment he said "I think I might be falling for him" right after the bastard raped him, I just coudn't get attached to the character that much.
Not your average yaoi, each yaoi has many storylines, each tailored to an individual.
Chill anon. Coming from someone who's read hundreds of yaoi, I think it's safe to say that while there are different stories, romanticizing rape is a rather common trope in yaoi. Sooo yeah I think you could say this is pretty average in that aspect.
I somehow didn't get the idea that he saw it as rape. I don't like that stuff either, but you have to remember that this victim had long acknowledged his physical attraction to his aggressor. And it's not like Ishikawa was so very forceful. Sure, he started out that way, but Takayama could have thrown him off. They were both of similar build.
Taka already attracted to Ishi before the "rape", and as Rox said Taka should at least able to push back Ishi
He gets raped and seems to love it, falls in love and believes everything the seme says smh
