If you're a fan of this series, you probably won't like my comment so you can go ahead and skip it. Save us the trouble of arguing cause I won't change my mind or views on this no matter what is said.
First of all, that whole situation is considered grooming. He's a pedophile, end of story. We are talking about elementary school. If someone so much older is considering a kid of that age as a sex partner and romantic love interest, they are sick! No one in elementary should have a relationship with someone that older. Children can't consent to these acts; what they call a relationship and the masturbation act, even if they are holding off till he is 18 for full sex.
I don't mind reading taboo cause I'm open minded (and I've read a lot of weird stuff, taboo/police involved etc), but saying things as they are goes along with that.
For starters, the father's reaction makes no sense. If this wasn't a fictional character, they would have to go get checked for brain and psychiatric damage. The older guy's best friend included. The only one who had a real reaction and concern was the kid's friend from elementary school and still, she should have told her parents and police.
Yes, the story has a cute vibe because of how the ''so-called innocent love'' between them is progressing but it makes me sick thinking that something like that is actually happening in the real world and out of the manga world (where anything goes as authors and artists are concerned) and there might be people not reporting incidents like this and thinking its okay. Cause its not okay and its not natural. No one should be treating this taboo as acceptable when its wrong. So let's get our facts straight and not promote that kind of thing as okay when its not.
